7/24/23 – Prayers for Princess Lea. She was seen being thrown from a car. Sherri N. (who we’ve helped several times with rescues) was contacted for help and she contacted us. Princess Lea was taken to a walk in clinic first but unfortunately they just removed the road rash but didn’t do anything with what turned out to be a very dangerous wound. Sherri has been trying to care for the wound over the weekend but today she will be trying to get into Veterinary Medical Hospital in Flint. Princess Lea is a very sweet girl who is another victim of the inhumanity of ‘man’. – diana

7/23/23 – Tiger Update – Tiger was found with his mom and siblings (see July 15 and 18 posts). Everyone was very healthy except Tiger who needed hernia surgery. This past Friday Tiger had his surgery at Orion Animal Hospital and here is the update from his family: ” I wanted to let you know that Tiger’s hernia surgery today was successful!! Seems to be in a bit of pain, but taking it like a champ. Thank you so much for helping him get the care he needed. We are beyond grateful!!

He’s a little loopy at the moment so will send some better photos in a little bit. – Lauren”

Without the generosity of our supporters, these babies would never have that second chance at life. diana

7/21/23 – On July 18 I was contacted about a dog rescued from a work place who had blood in her urine. The person’s step son would be able to foster her and, hopefully, find her a furever home with a friend or family member but they needed assistance having her seen medically. Fortunately, Gina, who works at Moore Veterinary Hospital was able to get her in the following day. It turned out that the blood was coming from her intestinal area and colon probably as a result of whatever she was eating. She is very sweet. Her heartworm test was negative. And, Java was started on anti diarrhea meds, probiotics, and a prescription bland diet. She was given a month of heart worm prevention, deworming, and her urine was checked. Once she’s better we will cover her first set of vaccines and spay. – diana

7/21/23 – Frank’s rescuer lives in a mobile home park and when their neighbors moved out, they left their poor intact cat behind. The rescuer would see him from her window and one day he showed up with several wounds, probably from a fight. We were contacted and Frank was taken to our partners at Orion Animal Hospital. Frank had a fever from the infection so he couldn’t get vaccinated just yet. He was given antibiotics for the infections and two different meds for his fleas. He had wounds all over and was missing a claw. Frank has a follow up appointment on July 31 where, hopefully, he will be able to be vaccinated and neutered. His rescuer and new mom said that he’s adjusting very well to his new life as a house cat. He loves to sleep on the couch although he still is a little interested in getting out. Hopefully, once he’s neutered, that will change. His rescuer said: “thank you for giving him a second chance; he really deserves it!!

7/19/23 – We were contacted last Friday about 7 kittens who were in located in the Flint area. As the posting says, many with eye infections and one you can see who may need a possible eye removal. Upon receiving the request, I authorized everyone to be seen at All About Animals in Flint. Fortunately, the person who contacted me today; all seven were trapped and will be taken into All About Animals but the finder is searching for a rescue group who could take them in after treatment and find furever homes. If you or someone you know can help with that aspect, please contact Shelby at: [email protected]

We will update as we get further information. – diana

7/19/23 – Lady was scheduled to be euthanized at the local shelter when she was rescued by Amanda. Amanda contacted 4 Paws 1 Heart and we took care of all of her medical needs so that she could be ready for adoption. Amanda found whom she thought would be the perfect home, and it was for awhile, but then the adopter’s had job changes and was no longer able to give young Lady the love she wanted. Lady was returned to Amanda. As Amanda states here, she has had her share of medical issues and lately has taken on a couple of new jobs and is not in the position of keeping this fun puppy of about 2 years old. Lady (LadyBug) is a beauty and if anyone is interested in giving her that furever home, please contact Amanda as indicated on the photo. Please share and paws crossed. – diana

7/18/23 – Tiger’s story was posted on 7/15/23. He was seen yesterday at Orion Animal Hospital for a potential hernia operation. The surgery is now scheduled this coming Friday, July 21. He’s a little guy — too little even to be neutered — but he will be with the best. And, when he has recovered, we will take care of his vaccines and neuter. Please remember him in your prayers. – diana

7/17/23 – Rescued from a hoarding situation. Fortunately, the owner of the home had taken good care of the cats (although not spay/neuter) so significant medical wasn’t needed. An independent rescuer involved in the rescue was able to help with 15 cats and was down to these three when we were asked to help. They were taken to our good friends at The Paws Clinic and are with fosters who will try to find their furever homes. – diana

7/17/23 – Although most of them had diarrhea, Midge and Odin appeared to be in worse shape and not gaining weight. Macomb County Animal Control helped with 6 kittens and took them in and we agreed to help with Midge and Odin. They were taken to Orion Animal Hospital where they were both treated for severe diarrhea. Midge had to return to the hospital to be treated with antibiotics. Their rescuer was in close contact with me and Midge and Odin appear to now be doing well. – diana
