4P1H VILLAGE KITTYROOM, THE TIGER TWINS, PET SUPPLIES PLUS AND OUR BOARD MEMBER DEE

2/15/24 – Although 4 Paws 1 Heart is not a rescue and doesn’t have possession of the animals, we assist many independent rescuers who do not have the resources to promote a rescued animal after we’ve assisted with medical treatment. We host a page on Petfinder which is not available to individuals/non-501c3’s, a facebook page called Friends of 4 Paws 1 Heart where animals we’ve helped can be posted and promoted by their rescuer and lastly, the 4P1H Village Kittyroom at the Pet Supplies Plus store on 13 Mile and Harper in St. Clair Shores.

Our Board member, Dee Gudenau, who is very much involved in TNR, caring for cat colonies, and rescue when asked, saw the vacant room at the store, met with the manager, and magically she put together a Kitty Room with the help of those rescuers we’ve assisted in the past. There is also a donation bin at the front of the store for pet supply donations which are then distributed to cat communities and foster animals.

That is why it is named the 4P1H Village Kittyroom — the operative word being ‘VILLAGE’. It’s the product of 4p1h Board members, rescuers who want to promote their rescues, volunteers, and the store staff. All for the sake of God’s creatures who must rely on humans far too often for their survival. – diana

ZUMA

2/15/24 – Zuma was rescued this past Sunday at around 3pm by a rescuer, Emma, whom we’ve helped in the past. Between 3pm and 8am the following morning, Zuma threw up garbage six separate times — pennies, plastic, bags, and popcorn kernels. But as of now that has stopped. Emma reported that it appears that Zuma is not spayed and may have had a recent litter although there were no puppies to be found. Zuma’s female organs are very swollen and her underside is very raw, rough feeling, and has red spots. Her tail and ears appear to have been frostbitten as they sometimes bleed and are scabbing over. Her tail and ankle areas are also very raw and have signs of wounds.

Emma advised that Zuma’s a wonderful dog; very gentle and mellow. She will be fostering Zuma with the help of Make a Difference Rescue and 4 Paws 1 Heart. Zuma will be seen at Five Mile Animal Hospital.

Your donations make a difference in the lives of so many. – diana

CHANCE VIDEO

MOM: Good Sunday morning Team I thought you might enjoy this video I put together of Chance a couple years ago. I have to tell you when Chance came to me in 2015 I was clueless about paralyzed cats! No idea how to express a bladder, help with . Knew nothing about laser, accupunture, kitty physical therapy, oh gosh…sooo many things. But we learned together and Chance was always so patient with me. He changed my life in ways I could have never imagined. And sooo many have came becuse of Chance. All the bottle babies and preemies. Injured and sick, seniors, Carlos who was hospice, Carla who is rear paralyzed. He always looked at me like “come on mom, we got this…I’ll help you! ” Chance made sure so many others got their Second Chance, becuse he got his.The reality of it is, without 4 Paws 1 Heart…there would have not been that amazing, amazing gentle, determined, spirited, hilarious, life changing SuperHero Chance. Nor would there be a Bridgette, Carla, Trixie, Twyla, Bobbi and even Baby. They all came in under emergency circumstances under the loving wing of 4p1h. Together with 4 Paws 1 Heart we will continue to make sure his legacy will continue through the lives that will continue to be saved. If you would like to help please make a donation in Chances Memory to..

CHANCE REMEMBERED BY HIS MOM

2/10/24 – A tribute to our Super Hero, Chance. So many prayers for his family.

https://www.facebook.com/asecondchanceforchance

Hey there Team, mom here. Please just let me just say that the outpouring of love and support from all of you has been overwhelming! I had no idea how many people loved Chance as much as we do. Your kind words, thoughts, messages, texts and pictures those of you have sent of yourselves with Chance mean soooo very much to me. I just can’t begin to thank all of you enough for all the love, truly thank you From the very beginning 9yrs ago until his last breath yesterday Chance always wanted to do more, go faster, stand taller, walk & run and be a SuperHero..and he did!!! Then he always wanted to help others in need. He was the best big foster brother and Uncle Chance to sooo many foster kittens, cats and dogs too. He wanted to make sure all the hungry kittys…homeless, foster or just those in need had full bellys…and with your help he did!!! He wanted to make sure that homeless kittys needing medical help got the help they needed like he did. He raised thousands of dollars with your help for 4 Paws 1 Heart and he was their feline mascot. His love for others knew no bounds. Even in the end it was he, comforting me. His heart was just so big that his poor body couldn’t support it so he went on to where he could always be healthy, his spinal cord would be normal and he would be pain free. A place where he can take care of everyone he loves. We will continue his love & legacy on our page and in our lives by continuing to make sure hungry tummys are filled and homeless, abused and abandoned animals receive the medical care they need and deserve. With that being said we invite everyone who can to please celebrate Chances life by making a donation in his memory to his beloved 4 Paws 1 Heart at… https://4paws1heart.org/donation/ and please note that’s its in Memory of Chance For those who donated for Chances care yesterday, thank you so much. It will go towards his bill at the emergency hospital. Thank you. Thank you all again for your love & support. Oliver, Bridgette & Carla are taking his loss the hardest, my heart breaks for them. And no, we are not okay. But we are working on it one minute at a time. We love you all, goodnight Team P.S. Please share

MEET PANTHER

This handsome fella was found as a stray. He is super friendly and about 9 months old. We are covering his neuter and vaccines to help get him ready for a forever family. If you are interested I can put you in touch with the rescuer for more information. Thank you to our supporters because we couldn’t give animals like Panther the vetting they need without you. Isn’t he beautiful?! Gina

CHANCE

2/9/24- To say that all of our hearts are broken would be an understatement. We are devastated at the loss of our super hero and feline mascot, Chance. His journey, as so eloquently told by his mom and our Board member, Denise Najera, was an inspiration for all who followed him. Since his rescue 9 years ago, Chance was able to raise thousands of dollars in donations. Those dollars were used to save so many stray and broken animals just like he was at one time. Chance’s legacy will live on in all of those animals whose lives were changed because of him. Please remember Mom Denise, Aunt Shelly, and Team Chance in your prayers. Here he is with Uncle T just before being interviewed for WDIV. – diana.

We are so grateful to you Diana Rascano and 4 Paws 1 Heart for being there for our beautiful boy when he came into our life, you never left his side in 9yrs and was there for him when he took his last breath. He had a beautiful life because of you and all who donate to 4 Paws. I am eternally grateful for the 9 years of unbelievable love we were able to share with Chance and he, with all of us. His legacy will continue, we will make sure of that. Thankyou for 9yrs of the most amazing love and deep bond with our Forever SuperHero – Denise
