8//3/17 – Meet Rocky. He was found injured on the street; possibly hit by a car. Something was wrong with Rocky’s jaw and after trying to find his owner, he was taken to one of our veterinarians. The doctor found loose bone sticking through his gums and believed that was preventing his jaw from healing. In addition to his jaw injuries, Rocky has demodex mange. On Wednesday, Rocky had the surgery to remove the loose bones and he is now resting comfortably. A foster is being sought by our friends at A Rejoyceful Animal Rescue but in the mean time, he is staying with his rescuer, Lori. Rocky’s surgery could not have taken place without the generosity of our supporters. Thank YOU. ~ diana

Maui, Muana, Penelope, Jordon, Josie and Jordon – Found with Severe Upper Respiratory Infections
8/2/17 – Please keep your prayers and good energy going. The two grey babies (Josie and Jodie) were found with Karl and have serious upper respiratory infections. Jordan continues to fight the fight. So many animals this summer needing so much medical help and loving homes. ~ diana
“I am exhausted…but first I want to thank Debra Berolatti for being here first thing in the morning to take Maui, Muana and Penelope in for their spay and neuter, (Penelope didn’t get spayed as she developed a uri), and bringing them back home to me, all thanks to 4 Paws 1 Heart for covering their medical and 4P1H covered the vet visit this afternoon for Jodie and Josie! They are both fiv/felk negative…yea! But we are waiting on shots until they are completely over their uri’s. While there I got an appt for Jordan for tomorrow, who bless his heart, when he saw me today after I got home he tried to meow for the first time! It was so feeble, my heart went out to him. When I returned home I was so blessed today…..waiting for me on the porch were a couple of packages with toys and a kitty tree donated for the kittens. I have another long day ahead of me tomorrow, this time it’s also for me as I am still dealing with the ear problem! I want to thank everyone for their support and prayers for Jordan. We are on day 5 and he’s holding his own. Whew……ok, I got work to do! – Patricia”
Gizmo – Dumped at a Veterinary
8/2/17 – I honestly can’t keep up with reporting on all of the animals we are helping. Thank you to all of my family, personal friends, and 4 Paws 1 Heart friends for donating almost $7,000 in memory of my mom. We really couldn’t have kept up with the overwhelming need without those dollars. ~ diana
“Last week I took in a kitten that was dumped at a vet due to being constipated. Last night she started screeching and hid. i spent 2 hours looking for her and called my crack kitty whisperer team Tanya Maglothin and Jen Bochenek to come and help me find him so he could go to the vets at 1130p,. Not more than a second after they walked in the house Gizmo appeared. He was stable and so I took him to the vet today. Thank you to https://www.facebook.com/4Paws1Heart/ our small rescue was able to have him seen. He will need test and they think surgery. if it wasn’t for this group, many small rescues would not be able to afford the medical bills. Please think about donating, adding them to amazon smile. 100% is tax deductible. AND 100% of every penny goes towards the animals. Thank you Diana Rascano – Jacque”

Karl – Still Struggling
7/31/17 – 
Prayers for sweet Karl. Please. – diana
Hello Team, please welcome Karl ❤ Im sure you remember the 4 little orange kittens we’ve been posting. Karl is the one who had the abscessed eye that ruptured. He went to the vet again today and because of all he’s been going through with first his upper respiratory and then his ruptured eye, he now weighs only 12oz at 7wks old. Although he was getting great care it was decided he should come to our house because mom is home all day and able to give him the 24hr special care he now needs to gain weight to prepare for the eye surgery he needs. This was his 3rd vet visit in a week thanks to 4 Paws 1 Heart and he will have another visit in 2 days. Today he received more meds, subQ fluids and a B12 shot. Mom is syringe feeding a formula of kitten food mixed with KMR and also supplementing with a high calorie nutrition supplement to help him gain weight. Please keep little Karl in your prayers, he has a long road ahead of him. Thank you 4 Paws 1 Heart, Jo A. and Auntie Debra, takes a village ❤”
