Shelby – Found With a “Blind Eye” and and Eye Needing Surgery

2/15/21 – 12 week old Shelby, who was surrendered to Streethearts Animal Rescue on February 3, 2021. The person stated that she was found outside and that she could not keep her. Shelby weighed only 10 pounds and should have weighed 15, plus she had a “horrible” blind eye that required enucleation and the other eye has entropion eyelashes (the lashes grow inward, touching the eye). The entropion surgery will have to wait until she recovers from the eye removal, which we covered, and has gained some weight. The doctor did not want to keep her under anesthesia too long. She had the eye removal surgery last week and was kept over night. Shelby is doing well at this time.
There are far too many animals being abandoned, surrendered, or born on the streets with no one to turn to. Thank you to our many supporters and please, don’t forget, that with the generosity of a very good friend, we do have a $1,000 VALENTINE MATCH going on right now. All donations made up to $1,000 over the next two weeks will be matched. – diana
