I'm hoping to find a great home for my cat. His name is Curtis Brown, he's around 8-9 years old and has 3 legs. I've had him for 7 years, and I love him a lot, but I'm moving and I can't afford to take him with me. He's very sweet, loves to cuddle, and enjoys to be petted and brushed. His favorite is being scratched behind his ear, because he can't reach that side since he's missing his back leg. He cannot live with a dog, but should be fine with another cat.

Please email me at sandramcharles@yahoo.com or call me at 703-477-5662 if you would like to meet him.

cat attacked by coyote in Encinitas CA needs donations for surgery

PLEASE CROSSPOST

Hi, I have a friend who's neighbors cat was attacked by a coyote on August
15th. She went with the cats so called owner to the vet only to find out
she didn't want to pay for an x-ray or treatment because the cat was already
10 years old. Only because Christine was there is why Bob is still
alive.her neighbor was going to euthanize him but instead out of guilt and
at Christine's urging he was given antibiotics for the puncture wounds and
pain meds for his fractured jaw and then sent home to see if his jaw would
"fix itselt". Yesterday my friend was able to get her neighbor to
relinquish Bob with a formal letter so she could take him to a vet for an
x-ray. Unfortunately Christine already cares for several cats of her own
and can't afford the surgery to wire his jaw. It was determined at the vet
yesterday that he needs a very simple surgery . The vet (Dr. Chow VCA North
Coast Animal Hospital) said she could both feel and see the fracture, it is
called a "mandibullar symphyseal fracture". She did not need to take an
x-ray because luckily she said it was a simple fracture, one you can see
visually. He was 3% dehydrated and has lost several pounds over the last
week since this happened and when she had previously examined him. Since he
has lost so much weight she determined he needed surgery as soon as possible
to wire his jaw so he is scheduled to have surgery today. Christine is
getting an account set up at the vet so funds can go directly to his care
and his surgery is scheduled for around noon. I will have all the details
on Bob's account very soon. Additionally, Stray Cat Alliance has very
generously pledged $200 towards his care so we are only trying to fund raise
for the additional $288 - if anyone can help with even $5 that will help so
much. Stray Cat Alliance has also offered to give anyone who would like a
tax deductable receipt one as well as we can provide pictures,
relinquishment letter, vet bills/estimate etc. Please help Bob get a second
chance! After his recovery we will be searching for his new forever home,
one where he will be loved and cared for.

Please email me off-list if you can donate and I will provide vet info so
the donation can go directly to the vet I will also have pictures this
afternoon and can provide them as well as vet estimate/bill paperwork
etc.

Thank you sooo much for caring about Bob!

Shelbyville, KY. - Kasa, the sweet dog with only one eye needs home

Due to my pregnancy, today was my first time to visit the shelter in almost
five weeks. While walking the dog kennels, I was immediately drawn to this
sweet girl. The shelter has named her Kasa. There are mixed opinions of
what she might be, but I think the last poll stated that she is either a
Husky
or Malamute mix. Either way, I was struck how petite she is. She is about
the size of a Sheltie.

Sadly, Kasa's right eye is missing. For lack of a better word, it appears to
have "goo" seeping from out of the eye socket. Poor girl. Can you imagine
the headache and pain you would be in if your eye was poked out???? We don't
know exactly what happened to her eye, but there appears to be no eye ball.

When we got her out of the dog kennel area, we took her to the office area
to take pictures. We discovered to wonderful things about her. First, she
loves cats. She wanted to roll and play with the shelter cat, Mouse.
Secondly, she was very good with my 3 year old daughter. Between the cat and
my
daughter, she didn't know who to play with first!!!!!!

Kasa is very friendly with everyone and is VERY eager to please. She needs
a good bath and veterinary attention for the eye. But other than that, she
appears in good health.

She's impound #9.

Her adoption fee is only $65 and includes a $30 voucher to be applied to her
spay surgery at a vet of your choice.

This shelter is VERY rescue friendly and does not charge a pull fee to
reputable rescue organizations. THE RECEIVING RESCUE MUST MAKE ALL TRANSPORT
ARRANGEMENTS.

This is a county government operated facility and though they try VERY hard
to find all dogs a home or rescue, sometimes they DO have to euthanize, so
let's all work on forwarding this email to get Kasa out!!!!!!

If you can help Kasa, please contact the shelter at: 502-633-0009
IMMEDIATELY if you can help!

POTTSVILLE PA - elderly blind dog NEEDS YOU!!!

All About Vern

He's coming aroung at the shelter. His eyes are clearing up, we do think he can see a little bit. We've fallen in love with the old boy. He is surprisingly neutered, and housebroken. He needs a little bit of recooperation time, but is really in need of a good retirement home. Please help us, and give Vern the good home he needs. He is great with kids, and other dogs too!

Grapevine, TX - sweet, DEAF dog w/cord wrapped around it's neck needs rescue/home

EXTREMELY URGENT - Sweet deaf dog, found in Grapevine, TX (suburb in Dallas area) with blind cord wrapped around his neck.
CALL 817-723-8374 or email Michelle at jonettemichelle@yahoo.com (@yahoo.com)

This darling dog was found about a week ago by a neighbor of a very nice lady named Michelle in Grapevine.  The poor sweet dog had a blind cord wrapped around his neck, that the neighbor cut off, and had fly bites all over his ears (which have now healed). He is as sweet as can be but is deaf which Michelle realized upon trying to call him to give him water.  Appears to possibly be an Aussie, Brittany or Border Collie mix.  Michelle thought perhaps he may be a Husky mix. Her apartments do not allow pets, but the apt manager being an animal lover has made an exception temporarily to allow Michelle time to find him a home. This is of the utmost urgency.

He has been neutered and is housetrained and is a medium size of about 45 pounds. Michelle said he is a really great dog - truly wonderful. He is extremely good with children and Michelle has a 2 1/2 year old that he's gentle and sweet with.  He appears to be a little scared of men in general but warmed up to the apartment manager's husband, also an animal lover.

Please, is there anyone out there that can help this sweet dog? 
If so, call 817-723-8374 or email Michelle at jonettemichelle@yahoo.com (@yahoo.com)
