1/6/22 – Just in case you missed it. This was published in yesterday’s Detroit News. Again, we are so grateful for the support of so many and the generosity of the Detroit News. – diana.

1/5/23 – Jane Doe has been in and out of the emergency hospital since December 24. She was originally posted on fb by a person who saved her from a very abusive/neglectful situation. She was only 10 weeks old and Jane appears to have been starved and couldn’t hold down any food. An amazing woman saw the post and took in Jane thinking that the condition sounded like Parvo. Well, to make a long story short, it wasn’t parvo; this poor baby has been diagnosed with Megaesophagus which will eventually require surgery if the doctors can get her through her current issues of pneumonia caused from the aspiration of vomit. According to Web MD, Megaesophagus in dogs is a disorder in which the esophagus gets larger in size and consequently loses its ability to transport food. When this disorder occurs, the food accumulates in the animal’s espophagus.
Unfortunately, as an organization we have to consider all of the many stray animals in our communities who need our help. And, as we know from experience, money spent on medical needs can go fast. Consequently, we can’t help Jane Doe to the level she needs but we can at least help with a fraction of what the total costs will be for Jane’s medical care. Jane was again recently admitted to the emergency hospital for more testing and at this time her ANGEL is making arrangements with a surgical hospital for future surgery and continuing to raise money. Please pray for Jane Doe as well as her savior who has jumped into a situation she didn’t expect and really can’t afford. But she is committed to Jane — at all costs.
When you read and see all of the bad happening in this world, you once again regain hope when you come across a Paige Burgess who is giving it all for a defenseless, abused animal. – diana.

1/4/23 – Muffins is such a sweetheart and she will be looking for her furever home. Paws crossed that the doctors will be able to figure out how to help her on January 18. She is such a playful, happy kitty. – diana.

Muffins’ hanging in exam room and watching 40 cats on YouTube. Her appointment with the specialist is Jan 18th. Prayers that they can help her get proper for her nasophyrengeal stenosis.
1/4/22 – Meep is a one-eyed sweet boy who started living on on a very caring person’s porch during the severe weather of a couple of weeks ago. The homeowner contacted several rescues without any success and once the storm hit she didn’t have the heart to leave him outside so she brought him into her home and has been keeping him separated from her other cat until he could be tested and examined. Meep’s rescuer planned on taking him into All About Animals but was concerned there might be a longer term dental issue (you can see his snaggletooth protruding from his lower jaw) or other care that may not be in her budget at this time. He is an absolute sweetheart and as long as his testing comes back ok and introductions with her other cat go well she will be willing to give him a furever home.
We offered to cover Meep’s All About Animals visit as well as any dental issues needed. And, yesterday, Meep was tested and found negative for FIV and FelV, he has already been neutered and his rescuer paid for a microchip. The doctor examined his mouth and found Meep’s mouth and teeth to be healthy. He did indicate that because the ‘snaggletooth’ is so deep into Meep’s jaw, he would not recommend surgery. – diana.

1/4/22 – JUST A REMINDER – This Sunday’s Lions vs Packers Fundraiser has been cancelled due to the change in game time. Let’s be sure to root for the LA Rams. If they win and the Lions win against the Packers we could be in the playoffs. And, then, maybe we can have a football fundraiser after all. – diana.

1/3/22 – Cedar is an exotic short hair who was rescued in mid-December from a breeder at 14 weeks old. He was hospitalized with Pyothorax which occurs when pus or inflammatory fluids collect in the space around the lungs causing fever, anorexia, lethargy, and difficulty breathing. It is the result of infection around the lungs caused by wounds either internally or externally, migrating foreign bodies, or lung infection.
We were contacted by Kittens in the Mittens Rescue, who we’ve assisted before, because Cedar had been admitted to an emergency hospital. At the time, we could only help with a fraction of what the total bill was estimated at but glad we could help with something. I checked on Cedar yesterday and was told that he is doing well after spending a week in the hospital. He will be having a follow up exam next week. Anyone interested in this little cutie should contact Kittens in the Mittens Rescue; they do great work in our communities. – Diana

1/2/23 – I’m sorry to announce that the traditional Lions vs Packers Fundraiser is CANCELLED due to a change in game time. Just a little while ago, the NFL announced that the game was rescheduled for 8:20 p.m. Sunday, January 8, 2023. We hate to do this but we felt that most people would not be able to attend because of the late starting time, especially on a Sunday when most people have to work the following day.
If the Lions make it to the playoffs, we will try to schedule a fundraiser for that. PAWS CROSSED and STAY TUNED. PLEASE SHARE this post and help us get the word out. – diana
