Hi.. Kittens for Adoption

wvliz09 — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:49:02 GMT

I'm new here, and I'm not sure how often this page is read. This is my first post.

I'm a registered vet tech at a veterinary clinic in WV. I'm fairly new to the field - I got my degree in May and I've been working since last fall. Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever lose my desire to save every helpless, furry creature that comes through our doors. They tell me that in time, I'll change... I'm not so sure.

I am not allowed to have any pets at all where I live. This limits my ability to help, but I have found one way to maybe make a small difference. Kittens have a way of finding me. Maybe they know I'm a cat person at heart, or maybe it's just my total inability to say, NO. I have had the chance to hand raise several orphaned kittens over the last two years, and there's nothing more satisfying than seeing them grow into healthy little cats and find permanent, loving homes.

The most recent batch came into the clinic in late September, hours old, half frozen to death and left on someone's front porch. The littlest runt didn't live through the first night, but surprisingly, the rest of them did, and now I have five healthy little seven week old fuzzballs that need homes. Soon.

If anyone, knows of anyone, who might be interested in adopting one of these little critters, please let me know. I'm willing to drive a little ways, if need be, to meet you. Any potential adopters must convince me that they will see to it that all vaccines are done and kittens will be spayed or neutered when they are old enough, and my kittens must be kept indoors. Call me picky, but I'm determined not to make this problem worse!

Thanks for reading, I'll try to post pictures on my profile, if I can. :)

4 cats left behind after owner was evicted ... needs new home(s)

allminenyc — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 01:55:49 GMT

4 adult cats were abandoned in a one bedroom apartment after the owner was evicted. They were sent to a local VA shelter and left at the back of the room where no one would have seen them. Two of them were sick and no one knew. A compassionate and seasoned local rescuer by chance saw these cats and did not have the heart to just left them behind. She took them home and along with her rescue network, fund was raised for medical care and supplies for these 4 forgotten kitties.

We are looking for loving forever homes for these 4 kitties either as a group or in pair. Will consider individual adoption if we must but from what we know, these 4 cats are all they knew each other all their lives. It would be great if at least two of them can stay together at a new home.

Transportation will be provided. All healthy now, shots up-to-date. All spayed/neutered. All around 3 to 4 years. 2 females and 2 males. Pictures below.

Please contact me if you would like to adopt these beautiful cats or if you have any lead.

Thank you. Wilma

Hi Everyone,

Please take a look at the below run sheet and let me know if you're able to help with any of the legs. The little guy on the transport needs to go to Zanesville OH to participate in a wonderful program where prisoners care for and train dogs in need of a little extra attention. Since he's a fear-biter, he'll need to remain crated for the transport. The crate will be provided by the sending rescue.

Please cross-post if you're unable to help this time.

Sincerely,

Laura

Working together for West Virginia animals : Looking for a wonderful new home

jmoyers21 — Wed, 13 May 2009 20:23:15 GMT

My husband and I have a 3-year old lab/hound mix that needs a new home. She's not compatible with our other dog and it has caused issues. She needs a home where she is the only dog. Preferably somewhere with a lot of land because she LOVES to run. She's very sweet towardpeople, she just doesn't do well with other dogs. Please post a response if you are interested.

Animals Looking for Homes : Dog-Friendly Chow Mix Seeks Forever Home (NJ) – Please Cross-Post!

veganmarcy — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 20:51:47 GMT

Smokey is an active and healthy 6-years-young Chow/Shepherd/Rotti mix. He has been with 11th Hour Rescue for over 2 years. He is currently at our shelter, but is occasionally fostered by a volunteer with 6 other dogs. If you want a buddy for your dogs, Smokey’s the best! You can see a video of Smokey at: http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=11162966

Smokey LOVES other dogs (he knows to be gentle with smaller ones) and is great with his foster parents, however he has “guarding issues”. Trying to “protect” his home and owners has lead to biting. He has NEVER gone after his fosterers and trusts them 100%. His caregiver can take food away from him; check his teeth, paws, mouth; give him a bath…pretty much handle him however they want. He is also crate-trained and housebroken.

Smokey is a “big puppy” who lives to play with and meet new dogs. Yard time is fun time for Smokey! His wariness about trusting people stems from low self-esteem and past abandonment. He does not show outwardly aggressive body language when nervous, which means that he would require a dog savvy home. Once Smokey bonds with you, he would never go after you – and he bonds quickly. His forever family would increase his confidence and trust as a “nervous aggression” dog. Someone who knows when company visits, he must be crated or put in another room to avoid the “guarding” behavior.

He is a great dog that deserves a chance at having a loving home, because he has so much love and loyalty to give to you!

Smokey is neutered and up-to-date on his vaccinations.

Please contact his fosterer tammy.probst.smith@gmail.com for more info.

Animals Looking for Homes : Maria: Nearly a year in the shelter and still not home yet!

houndlv978 — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 03:31:06 GMT

Maria. One look at Maria and you can see that she has been through a lot. When she first came to the shelter she had some skin problems and was very depressed. She was left on the CASPCA property with no note. They found her tied up, wearing a torn leather collar (where the nameplate had clearly been ripped off). Surely, this was a dog that was not going to be missed. The staff took care of her skin problem and spayed the 'former' mother. Her appearance clearly indicates that she has had several large litters of puppies in her few years. She became available for adoption in March 2008 and is still looking for a home today. She is a large dog (80 lbs, though she could lose about 5lbs), and looks to be a lab/shepherd cross. This is how I've come to know Maria today:

Maria is the big momma around here. She's the easiest dog I've ever encountered. She's housebroken and well-mannered. She is easy to walk on a harness and she does enjoy her walks! She looks old and tired, but she's got some spunk (though there is a refreshing amount of lazy in there). She likes to play with stuffed squeaky toys and gets very excited over a good game of fetch. She will however let you know when she is tired. She knows sit, down, come, and is learning 'leave it'. A very good listener, she'll do anything for treats! She's also a bit silly at times--just watch her roll around in the grass and laugh at how happy it makes her feel. She'll smile when you talk to her and roll into you for a belly rub. During the warmer months she really likes to sit outside, alternating between the sunny and shady spots. She really loves people, but sometimes can be a little wary of strangers. She is very loyal and wants to protect you--a little reassurance every now and then reminds her that she's safe. A relaxed dog, she looks like your typical old family dog. The truth is, she isn't that old--probably about 4 years max. She needs to be in a home without children or cats, because she finds them difficult to understand. She prefers being around adults who recognize her need for calm and respect (i.e. no yanking on her ears or pulling on her tail). She is an easy-going gal who is just dying to meet her new best friend. She grows very attached to her owner and would probably follow you from room to room if you took her home. She would make a great companion because she asks for so little and will give you so much.

Maria was adopted back in May, but was returned two days later. She went home to a family with a toddler. I'm not sure why this happened, since she didn't seem suited for children. Not surprisingly, she had an 'incident' with the child--she growled when the toddler walked by as she was chewing on a bone. To tell you the truth, I would have done the same if I were her (and I love children). She is a strong, smart girl and I have had no problem training her to 'leave it.' I also feel very safe rolling around with her when she plays, even with the occassional play-growls she throws in there. Her foster parents used to take her to dog parks and she plays just fine with other dogs. She is a dominant girl and will put a dog in its place if it gets out of line. Ideally, her forever-home would be a place where she can be the only dog--at least at first. I would like to see her go home with an owner who can establish dominance with her--it helps her feel safe when she doesn't have to be the alpha dog.

I hope that Maria's story has tugged at your heartstrings. If you have room in your heart and home, please consider meeting her. If you have room in your heart but not your home, please spread the word about her. I visit with Maria on a regular basis and am more than happy to answer questions about her. She is located at the main facility in Charlottesville, Va, and the CASPCA will adopt to anyone. They also hold off-site adoption events in Northern Virginia. I write on Maria's behalf, but not as a representative of the CASPCA. Any of my statements are my opinion only and not endorsed by the CASPCA.

Please feel free to email me questions. You may also visit the CASPCA website for more information about adopting a dog: http://caspca.org/AdoptDog.htm

Animals Looking for Homes : Pure Bred French Mastiffs in Miami

hgiljr — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 00:11:32 GMT

I received this info today and need help soon:
Hello, everyone. These two beautiful pure bred French Mastiffs need our immediate help. Please see the message below from Betsy and Rena and call Rena or Betsy directly if you can at least foster these two until we can find them a new forever home. Thank you!
These dogs are living behind a vacant house. Sasha and King are purebred French Mastiffs and they are desperately in need of help. The lady below (Rena) has rescued hundred's of dogs but has sold her house and is moving to New Zealand in two weeks. She hasn't had luck finding foster or permanent homes for them. For contact information before 1/15/09 contact Rena at 786-274-1200 and after that contact me at 786-246-5077. Betsy
Betsy, Do you know somebody, who could help to rescue these two wonderful dogs. They are suffering. The owner will surrender them, but I can't find anybody who will take them. They are very sweet, the girl (Sasha) is one year and the boy (King) needs care and I believe he's 6 or 7 years old. King has always lived outside and may/may not have heartworms. He was a beautiful dog, but now he is bloated and looks horrible. I have called the Animal control, but they didn't do anything. I told the owner to bring him to my vet to see what's wrong with him. The owner promised to do so but hasn't up to this point. They are totally alone - the house they live at is vacant and the conditions are bad. The owner comes by to feed them but that's all. I threw dog beds over the fence so they are a little more comfortable. They are really big teddy bears and it breaks my heart to see them in this condition. Sasha is on heartworm prevention, but I don't know if King was/is. Kind regards, Rena 786-274-1200

Her best friend is Gemma a sweet Pitty. They play all the time, but now Gemma has a new boyfriend, Mr. Bones. And Patti hates to go back into the Condo. Please consider giving her a forever home.
