“Helloooo everybody, it’s me Roo. Sooo, Chances appt went good, his booboos are slowly going away and now that the respiratory part is over Dr. Wilson felt comfortable giving him a low dose of liquid steroid for mom to give him 1xday for 7 days, 1xday every other day for 7 days to help make the sores go away.
Tomorrow morning is Carla’s day to show off her moves to Dr. Kern! Shes been working hard and is excited for her appointment!
The littles are ready to start the vetting process so they can go to their forever homes and mom will probably make their 1st appts this week after she speaks to Auntie Di.
Annnd that brings us to me! It has been increasingly clear this last week that I’m having..uh..old lady (leak) problems. Not only that, but sometimes I cant even hold my…uh…lady business till I get to the back door. Mom called Dr. Z today and her technician told mom not to worry, there are meds to help with that and we will address it when I have my dental which is 1wk from today!!! We are still under what we need for my dental and now my new lady meds too. All these appts for everybody I just told you about are all backed by 4 Paws 1 Heart, that includes Chances & Bridgettes last week. With soooo many just from our house alone you can see why it’s so important for us to raise as much money as possible on our page to help. Sooo please help me to raise the money for my dental by making a donation to 4paws1heart.org/donation/and be sure to put in the message box “Rosie’s Dental” Thankyou Team, it’s so very much needed & appreciated.
Well it’s time to get our treats, kisses & cuddles and off to bed we go.
Much love & kisses ❤ Rosie, Chance & the Gang”

11/4/18 – Meet Lucy who is now in her forever home. She was rescued when a person saw a couple of young boys throwing rocks at her. When the finder picked her up she saw a three inch wound that turned out to be a chemical burn. The finder notified her friend who took in Lucy and that friend, Amanda, contacted us for help. Lucy was in so much pain, she couldn’t stop shaking. We immediately had her see a vet who started treatment. Lucy was seen a couple of times before she finally was mended. We are so happy that Lucy is now in a loving home never to be tortured or abused again. ~ diana

11/1/18 – Prayers for Copper. Here is his story:
“My co-worker found Copper in the middle of a dirt road (off County Line Rd.) on her way to work two weeks ago. She thought he was dead in the road but then saw him move so she stopped and picked him up and brought him to work. When she told me about him and said he was out in her car I went out to see him. His face was covered in mud and grass, eyes almost completely closed with infection and mud. Mud was up his nostrilsand green drainage coming out as well from infection. His right eye was severely swollen open. The blades of grass were stuck to his open eyeball. Dr. K removed tons of ear mite dirt from both ears and cleaned him up as best he could. I took Copper home with daily antibiotics (liquid) and eye ointment and kitten food too. He was lethargic and just wanted to sleep. After a day of medicine and kitten formula he perked up significantly. He is now a member of our family (2 adult cats 6 and 17 yrs old and 1- 14 year old dog (blind for 2 years now). Everyone is getting along well together. I am reaching out to our organization to see if you would be able to provide any financial help with Copper’s upcoming surgery. Thank you. Linda N”
Of course, we could not turn our back after this sweet guy fought through so much. Copper’s medical is now under 4 paws 1 heart and he will be having his surgery tomorrow. Prayers for this little one. ~ diana

10/31/18 – It was a few weeks ago when I was contacted by our friend, Shelley Emerson. She had been contacted about a small kitty hanging outside of a local animal shelter. Unfortunately, as a municipal shelter, this little one wasn’t taken in because he appeared to be blind. Shelley contacted me to see if we would back medically, then she called our other friend to see if she would take him in if she was able to capture him. Well, all of that was done and Stevie (aka Oliver) was taken to the vet where he was examined, vaccinated, tested, and neutered. It could not be determined if Stevie was totally blind and we decided to have our Stevie seen by one of our favorite doctors, Dr. Natalie Zalac. who now has her own practice, Orion Animal Hospital. Dr. Z found that Stevie is totally blind which was probably the result of an earlier disease never treated. Because his eyes were partially open, they would be susceptible to infection and would need to be cleaned and treated with ointment three times a day. Dr. Z. believed that Stevie would be much more comfortable without his eyes, which were gradually shrinking. Also, we all felt it might be easier to find him a forever home if the adopter didn’t have to worry about cleaning his eyes multiple times a day. And, we thought it would be easier for Stevie if he didn’t have to poked and prodded three times a day and take a chance on further issues.
Stevie had both eyes removed yesterday and was picked up this morning. He is doing great. He is very lovable and knows how to use his litter box. We would love to see him get a nice, quiet, loving home. Anyone interested in Stevie should contact his foster mom, Debra at: [email protected] – diana

10/22/18 – Bounced and Abused — Meet Pepper.
Pepper was left outside to fend for herself after her owners “packed up and left” in August. The neighbor had been feeding her and letting her into her home on cold nights. The neighbor had taken Pepper to Animal Control where it was found that she had been chipped but the owner’s information was not registered — although, quite frankly, why would anyone want to return this cat to an owner who kicked her out. She was spayed in July and turned into Animal Control in September and was now back on the streets.
She is super friendly although a little thin. There are a few people interested in adopting her (paws crossed).
And, as someone recently said, 4 Paws 1 Heart (and our supporters) were there to make sure that Pepper would be physically ready for her new home. Prayers that Pepper finds that forever, loving, and permanent home. ~ diana
