10/26/17 – Two weeks ago Ana was found with a huge, bloody, puncture wound in her neck. The finder contacted us and she was taken to Wilson Veterinary. She was hospitalized for three days and released with a drainage tube. She had a follow-up visit last week and today she is doing great and is much loved in her rescuer’s home. The thought of these poor animals dying horrible deaths on the streets haunts everyone in the rescue world. ~ diana
Friggles – Only 2-3 Weeks Old and His Owner Used Frontline on Him Causing Severe Burns
10/24/17 – Although we are officially on financial hold, there are still many animals we have helped who we have not yet reported on. This is Friggles. He was surrendered at just 2-3 weeks old by his owner. It is thought that the owner put Frontline on his poor little body which caused severe burns across his back. We committed to having his burns treated and we will pay for his neuter and vaccines when ready. This is how your donations are spent. ~ diana
RIP SWEET ANIMALS Who Have Crossed the Rainbow Bridge
10/23/17 – Dear Friends, once again we find ourselves in a position where we have to be on hold from helping any new animals being rescued. Today, I paid bills totaling $15,373 to 4 veterinary hospitals for just the past month. Unless we get significant donations or support in our next couple of fundraisers, we will be on hold for a minimum of one month. As of today, we have paid $108,000 between 1/1/17 through 10/23/17 in medical bills. I’m sorry to keep asking but if you can, please make a donation today through paypal by using the donate link on our website or on the left side of this page. Or mail a check to P.O. Box 84, St. Clair Shores, MI. As you do that, please say a little prayer for all of those animals who have been left on the street to die horrible deaths all alone. These are two souls who were lucky enough to find someone who brought them into their homes to die in loving arms without further suffering. Th
ank you Shawnna and the kind lady who fed this poor kitty while he was in the wild. We were called when he couldn’t control his bladder and was not able to move his bowels. He was dirty and flea infested. The doctor suspected tumors and kidney failure. He died loved and clean late yesterday. This elderly dog was found lying in the shade at a car wash; not moving. A kind man took her home with the approval of a nearby police officer. He fed her and gave her water and she started to perk up. Unfortunately, she began to go down quickly over night which was thought to be because of congestive heart failure, the great doctors at OVRS, humanely euthanized her and put her out of her suffering. RIP Sweet Animals of God. Because of our finances, we were not able to respond as quickly as I would have liked. Would it have made a difference? I don’t know. ~ diana

Knuckie, Blackie, and Boo – The Many Cats Left Behind by Their Owners
10/22/17 – I know you’ve seen manyy kittens/cats this year. There have been many sad endings, but, fortunately, there were more happy beginnings. As a cat mom for 38 years, I just don’t know why people believe cats are expendable. They won’t neuter or spay and then they will throw them out of their home or leave them behind to fend for themselves when they move. Talk to any real estate gent and ask them how many times they have come across a home where the cats were left behind in the home. And, this is being done by people who allegedly like cats! Those who don’t ‘like’ cats, mostly driven by the movies and superstitions, ignore them — or worse — torture them. Here are more of the kittens and cats, we helped this past summer who were rescued by some of the wonderful, caring people who often come to us for help. Thank You again for anything you can do to help us in our mission. ~ diana
