5/14/20 – Tony and I bought this playpen for 4p1h’s good friend, Patricia, who as you’ve seen takes in many mamas and kitties. A couple of weeks ago I posted about Mama Susie Q, who Patricia took in and who shortly after had 5 babies. The babies are 3 weeks old now and wearing out mama so that is where the value of the playpen comes in. Now Mama Susie Q can rest a bit while the kids safely play. All of these sweeties will be medically backed by 4 paws 1 heart. It truly takes a Village. – diana

Buster – Found on the Side of the Road
5/13/20 – Buster was found on the side of the road in a very dangerous area. He was taken in by Hear My Cry Rescue & Outreach who reached out to us for help. Buster is scheduled for his neuter, vaccines, and testing this week. And the good news is that once this is all done, complements of our supporters, Buster may have a furever home. Theresa, who is with the rescue, tells us that they are being inundated with dogs found on the streets – abandoned and abused. Here is the only photo they had of Buster when they reached out to us for help. – diana

Sheba – Possible Dumped on Some Very Mean Streets After Having Babies
5/12/20 – Sheba was found roaming some very dangerous streets. She appeared to have recently had a litter but none could be found. It’s very likely that she was dumped after having her babies. She will be taken to the vet this week to be examined, spayed when appropriate, vaccinated, and, of course, tested. – diana

Little One, Bunny, and Vivian – Two Were Near Death and Two Others Had Already Died
5/9/20 – Remember these cuties? There were 11 kittens in total who may have come from 2 moms. Two were so sick they didn’t make it. Little One was so sick, our friend Jo was up every two hours checking on him. A couple of days later she got Vivian whose eyes were totally shut from an upper respiratory infection. Then she got Bunny who also needed medical attention but wasn’t as sick as the others. Now look at them!! Love and care can make miracles happen!! – Anyone interested in adoption should contact Jo at: [email protected] Of course they won’t be ready until they are will enough and big enough to get vaccinated and spayed/neutered. – diana

Casey – Found With a Severe Wound Near Her Tail
6/11/20 – Update: Casey continued to get laser treatments on her wound and she had her last treatment this week. She is doing great and the would has healed wonderully.
5/8/20 – More Prayers Needed. This is Casey. She was rescued from the outside of an automotive plant with a severe wound near her tail. She is also very emaciated and weighs only a little over 3 lbs. She was taken to a veterinary hospital yesterday and the doctor felt her condition was so severe that humane euthanasia would be appropriate. The doctor advised that not only were her physical conditions dire, but her organs were in trouble. Although I will usually follow the doctors’ recommendations, I also confer with the rescuer — they are the ones who I believe deserve to have the last word. After conferring with Casey’s rescuer, I asked the doctor to clean Casey’s wound and the rescuer would continue to provide sub q fluids. Over night, Casey did eat and today was taken to another veterinary hospital who agreed that Casey is a fighter and deserves a second chance. Casey is very sweet and is in the care of our friend, Debbie N. Casey was given laser treatment and tested negative for FIV and Felv. The bottom line is that we will do medically what is needed and for sure Casey will be getting much attention and care. Donations for her continued care is very much appreciated.- diana

Fredericka – Found on the Streets
5/7/20 – Frederick/Fredericka was trapped by our good friend, Shelley E. She immediately called to see if we could back up the medical for this sweet baby. Of course we said yes. He/She will be getting neutered/spayed next week as well as vaccines. He/She has been to the vet to get an initial check up and treatment. Shelley said that he/she is coming around and the only item attacked the other day was a paper towel roll. Hopefully, Fredericka/Frederick will be able to find a furever home. – diana

Salem – Found With An Infected Paw
5/6/20 – Meet Salem. A kind woman was trying to trap a pregnant cat but instead caught Salem with another buddy. Although she eventually found rescues willing to take them, no one would take Salem because he had something wrong with his paw; he couldn’t put weight on it. That’s where 4p1h came in. Our rescuer was able to find a veterinary hospital in Monroe, MI who would work with us and we agreed to pay for an x ray and any additional treatment. Salem was just released a little bit ago and, thankfully, there were no broken bones. His paw was very swollen and he did have a fever. Consequently, Salem was given some pain meds and antibiotics and he will be taken in by the rescue upon his recovery. He will also, of course, be neutered. Once again, a huge thanks to the amazing people who continue to rescue these innocent animals who need our help. ~ diana
