Roscoe – He Showed Up on a Porch, Heart Worm Positive and Limping
1/3/19 – Roscoe showed up on a porch in Detroit. He is in rough shape. He has a skin irritation that has caused fur loss, scabbing, and scaling up his whole back side. He has a limp in one of his front paws that seems to be caused from an injury. He has many missing teeth and what is there are mostly rotten. He is also heart worm positive. And as if that wasn’t enough, he has a large tumor on his back that will have to be biopsied to find out if it’s cancerous. 4 Paws 1 Heart is funding Roscoe’s heart worm treatment and anyone interested in this sweet dog should contact our friends at Rebel Dogs Detroit who rescued him. Please remember him in your prayers. ~ diana

Coco – Hit By a Car on a Busy Highway
1/2/19 – Meet Coco. This past weekend, a couple was driving on Little Mack in St. Clair Shores and saw a kitten hit by a car. That car didn’t stop, but, thankfully, this caring couple did. They immediately brought the kitten to a local veterinarian and paid almost $400 (that they really couldn’t afford) in medical bills. They then contacted us to see if we could help with any future expenses. In just a short period of time, they fell in love and planned on keeping this injured kitten. We wanted to do more than just just take care of Coco’s future vetting and spaying. We took care of her emergency visit after she was hit by a car and had the wonderful couple reimbursed by the vet. I am confident that Coco will be safe and much loved. ~ diana

Peanut – A Very Special Dog
1/1/19 – Happy 2019 to our many friends! I never tire of the many miracles we have played a role in over the past 8 years. Peanut has a special place in our hearts and we are so thankful for the wonderful life he has been given by his mom, Mary. – diana

2017: 1/1/17 – Happy 2017! One of my many struggles (besides fundraising) is to balance the happy beginning updates with our current efforts. But, being it’s another new year and the fact that we have so many new followers, I thought I would start it off with an update on Peanut. It was 2010 when Peanut was brought into the emergency where Gina was working. As you can see from the photo, he was like a stuffed animal without the stuffing; he couldn’t even lift his little head to eat. Gina and the phenomenal staff helped Peanut survive and eventually the perfect mom was found. Peanut’s mom recently tagged us with this photo of Peanut and his grandma. ‘Mom’ said that Peanut is really not as big as he looks in that Grandma is so small. We are so very happy we were able to give Peanut that second chance at a Wonderful Life. Your donations at work. ~ Diana

12/31/18 – Happy New Year’s Eve from another cutie saved by the 4 paws 1 Heart Village. – diana
“Sunshine is my most photogenic cat and my little sidekick. He was found by Marz Crisan and vetted by 4 Paws 1 Heart and I took him in to help find him a home. That was a good 2-3 years ago! Thank you, Marz and 4 Paws!”
Happy 2019
12/31/18 – As we come to a close for 2018, we just want to thank our many supporters who continue to donate their hard-earned money, attend our fundraisers, rescue/foster the abandoned and abused, and the many who just spread the word about our mission. Without you and our generous veterinarians who work with us, we would not have been able to save thousands of animals and pay $734,000 in medical bills over the last 8 years. May your 2019 be filled with much love,laughter, good health, and doggie and kitties kisses. – diana

Juneau, Ollie, Kitty – Rescued from the Streets
2/28/18 – If you’ve been following 4 Paws 1 Heart for a while, you will know that 2018 has been one of the worst years for kittens/cats. We have had many eye removals and leg surgeries. But, while we are taking care of the serious issues, we receive many requests for just the ‘ordinary’ vetting which includes vaccines, testing, neuter/spay, and treatment for upper respiratory infections, fleas and mites. Here are three more of the many kitties we have helped recently. Juneau, Ollie, and Kitty. Thank you to all of our supporters and rescuers. ~ diana
