4/27/15 – This is lucky. She was found last night in the middle of Ryan Road; she almost was hit by a car when a good Samaritan stopped traffic and saved her. 4 Paws 1 Heart will take care of her medical needs but she will need her forever home. Please contact Jo Addington at [email protected] if you are interested. ~ diana

Please keep paws crossed for our Draco… He had to have exploratory surgery late last night. He’s in recovery, but we still don’t know why he’s anemic. I’ll update when I know more. Gina
4/22/15 – “Hi everybody, Bridgette here! Just wanted to remind everyone that Im still looking for my purrrrfect home for me and my friend here! Yes, I love him and I carry him everywhere with me!

If you are interested in adopting me, please contact my foster mom here or at [email protected] Love & Purrs, Bridgette Please share! “
4/21/15 – These 8-week old kittens (9 of them) were found in a ditch in Harrison Twp., MI. Fortunately, the person who saw them did not turn away but rescued each one of them and contacted 4 Paws 1 Heart for help. Three of the nine had upper respiratory infections and they started their treatment yesterday; the others will all be vetted today. Please educate and promote spaying and neutering. Everyone can play a role. Either help groups like ours to pay for spaying/neutering, get involved in trap, neuter, return, programs, or take action when you find stray cats in your neighborhood and work to get them fixed. ~ diana
Had our good friend Denise Najera not noticed Chance’s plight and contacted us, this sweet, strong, and amazing cat would have been euthanized. Thank You, Denise and Dr. Tari Kern. Keep a look out for Chance’s new facebook page so you can more easily follow his journey. ~ diana
“Soooo, whos that big boy standing there??? Yep, you guessed it. Its me Chance! I just finished doing my exercises with some new ones added on today by Dr. Kern ofPawsitive Steps Rehabilitation & Therapy for Pets. Boy, between Dr. Kern and my foster mom they sure are giving me a workout! But in case you missed my earlier post, Dr. Kern and her staff were super impressed with my muscle tone in my back and hind quarters and my moves. Well helloooo……a good lookin guy like me naturally has muscles and moves ladies! Heres some pics from todays session of me getting pampered with my laser, acupuncture, massage, and physical therapy on cool nubby things. All your prayers, love and encouragement are really working and I love you all soooo much!!!! Im thinking of starting my own facebook page to document my journey, what do you all think? Im so lucky to have so many people loving and believeing in me And all the donaters and supporters at 4 Paws 1 Heart who had enough love and faith in me to take me and all my vet bills on, I specially love you! Ok, enough mush! Now Im going to have a nice relaxing bath, watch some tv, possibly con my foster mom out of a few treats! I still have one more exercise session to go tonight and shes such a pain in the tail making sure I get every exercise done before I can go to bed! Huh? Whats that mom? Noooo, I was just sayin what a cupcake you are! Lol Shhhhh, gotta butter her up for extra treats! Night all Love & Purrs, Chance”
The black cat was found by another good Samaritan. He is emaciated. We have him on IV fluids and supportive care. His prognosis is good but we need a foster/rescue in case an owner isn’t found. The need never ends! Gina 4/16/17
4/15/15 – My expertise is NOT begging for money. I like to think that my expertise is communication, event planning, networking, and just the other duties of paying bills, finances, etc. But at times like this when donations have been very slow and the need of abandoned and abused animals are very high, I have to remind our friends that if everyone who likes this page would just donate $5, can you imagine what we could do. At this time we are in the middle of treating two heart worm positive dogs and two cats who are seeing Dr. Kern in hopes that she can save Magic’s let and free up Chance’s legs so he can walk again. And, we just paid for Joy’s last leg surgery with a specialist. All of this while we continue to pay for spaying/neutering, vaccines, tests, x-rays, infections, and still try to help our rescue partners. Here is Chance who will be seeing Dr. Kern on Friday, April 17. Please continue to pray for this boy as we hope that he will some day be able to walk. Thank You in advance! ~ diana
P.S. See what I mean? I forgot to say donations can be made through PayPal by using the donate link on this page, on our website-4paws1heart.org, or by mail at P.O. Box 84, St. Clair Shores, Mi 48080
4/14/15 – Remember Storm? Well here she is cute as ever!!! I wanted to give another thank you to a wonderful organization that stepped up to help us. “Feline Friends”, took over hand raising this baby girl and they will find her fur-ever home when she’s ready. ♡ For details or adoption contact information is below.

Thank you all for your support!! Gina
Chance was rescued from a high-kill shelter and within days his back legs became paralyzed. Fortunately for Chance, our great friend, Denise Najera, noticed his plight and asked if we could back her if she took in Chance. Of course, we couldn’t say no. Our boy is working with one of our favorite doctors, Dr. Tari Kern, of Pawsitive Steps Rehabilitation & Therapy for Pets. And, as Denise says in her posting, donations to 4 Paws 1 Heart would be very welcome because without the support of our friends, we wouldn’t be able to save the abandoned animals like Chance. ~ diana 4/12/15
