Miss Kitty O’Shea – From Porch Kitty to Loved Kitty

Good Morning Happy Update: She is now known as Miss Kitty O’Shea but before she was the very skinny kitty who wouldn’t leave a porch. Something or someone had done something to her to cause many abrasions on her body. Noel B., a friend of 4p1h couldn’t bring her in and though she had to continue to live outside, Noel took care of her sores and kept feeding her. Noel, asked if we could take care of her vetting, vaccinating, and spaying in hopes of finding an adopter. We did and she did. Here is a photo of Miss Kitty before and now in her forever home. ~ dianamisskittyo'sheaw.noelbriggs misskittyosheaw:noelbriggs10:21:14

Sonic Update


10/20/14 – Sonic had his feeding tube removed! He acts like he NEVER ate before, so he’ll have to go to a home with no other animals for fear of “food bloating”. We are ready for him to go:)  He would love to be in his forever home.  If you would love to make him a member of your family, contact [email protected]Sonic10:20:14

Be Part of the Solution — Not Part of the Problem — Spay and Neuter


Joanne contacted 4p1h about a colony of cats and kittens behind a market in Shelby Twp. people have been feeding them but they are in pretty bad shape. One kitten appeared to have been injured and the back two legs were dragging behind him. Gina immediately asked Joanne to get the kitten into emergency. Unfortunately, the baby had been seriously injured and the legs were paralyzed, he also had internal injuries, along with many other issues. Unfortunately he could not be saved. But, the positive news is that three great individual rescuers who 4p1h has assisted on many occasions went out late today to start trapping/rescuing. I also want to add that our good friends atFerndale Cat Shelter will also be assisting on this project. Here is the update on tonights’s activities.

5 kittens were rescued tonight. 2 are 8 weeks old and 4p1h will pay for them to be vetted, vaccinated and dewormed (their little bellies are bulging so they are probably filled with worms) tomorrow morning; when they are ready, spayed. They will be fostered by one of the rescuers. A 10 week old, will be assessed by one of the 3 rescuers who went out there. She’ll determine whether this kitten is feral or not. Right now it’s looking positive for potential adoption. The final two are truly feral and they will be fixed and returned to be cared for by someone who is caring for the colony. ~ diana

Thank you 4 Paws 1 Heart for getting out to the Hollywood Market in Shelby Twp. as fast as you did to help out a paralyzed kitten. At least that baby isn’t suffering anymore and knew the soft and kind side of humans before he left us, I am so thankful for kind people like you who care about ALL living creatures. Thanksagain, keep me posted on the situation with all the other wild cats and kittens behind Hollywood, I hope the kittens can be caught and know human kindness before they are feral. I will remember you all when I have extra money for a donation, something I will do before xmas.


Minnow Going To a Foster

10/20/14 – Minnow will be going into a foster home this week and (fingers crossed) there is a strong potential that the happy couple will keep her for their own.  Sadly, their sweet feline family member recently passed away and we just hope that Minnow will work her way into their hearts.  ~ dianaminnow10:20:14

Lucy – A Victim of Animal Cruelty

10/15/14  lucyamputation10:15:14 lucylostalegwhenkicked10:2014Lucy Update, This beautiful girl was a victim of abuse. She was kicked so badly that the trauma to her elbow, required her front leg to need amputation. One of our favorite doctors, Dr. Nancy Pillsbury, from Harper Woods Vet. did the operation yesterday. Lucy was a stray that someone hurt, but now she is in a safe place, and she will NEVER be hurt again. When we were contacted for help we didn’t realize the extent of her injury, but we are here for this reason…and Lucy will have a chance at a loving home. This is another reason why people need to keep their cat indoors! You just don’t realize how often this happens…gina
