L.A., CALIFORNIA -- Donations Needed for a kitten with broken femur bone !!

My name is Theresa Bergeman, and this stray kitten who I have been feeding lost her mother recently and got hit by a car and just got surgery on her broken femur bone.  

She is about 3 months old, and she is recovering at Animal Medical Center of Southern California located at 2340 S. Sepulveda Blvd. 
(310) 575-5655. 

I am going to raise the kitten once she is out of the hospital.

The total cost is about $2500, most of which has been paid with my money along with a few donors in order to start the surgery, but being a college student I need help coming up with the rest, which totals $476.75.  If there is any way you could help me and the kitten, we would greatly appreciate it.

Any amount will help :)
 


Checks made out to "Animal Medical Center of L.A." can be mailed to my address:
Theresa Bergeman
350 E. Brett St.
Inglewood, CA 90302

For any questions, I can be contacted through e-mail at Theresa.Bergeman@gmail.com  at gmail.com
or by phone at (310) 908-2166.

Thank you for your kindness,
Theresa

Phoenix, AZ -- Deaf ACD mix w/3 good legs,thrown from car - needs placement

We have several dogs that have been in rescue for a year (or close to).

They each have their own story and unique needs. They are safe with New Hope Cattle Dogs in AZ, but really, really need their forever home. Zip is most in need:
 


Here is Zip's story. Zip came to us in Nov. of 06 after he was turned into a local emergency hospital. He has a lame foot that limits his movement from a previous injury that was not ever treated. Apparently, he had been thrown from a moving car when he was 3-4 months old and his rescuers never did anything to fix his foot, but instead turned around and turned him in 3 months later. We have had him checked out at several vets and it has been determined that he should have a $2200 surgery to attempt to fix his foot. Basically the vet thinks that the lameness appears to be coming from soft tissue damage where the ligaments/tendons were torn at the metacarpus joint and has frozen that joint into permanent hyperextension.It is unclear whether or not it can be fixed or not and with therapy following treatment will result in a vet bill of $3000. He seems to tire out on the leg if he is very active, but otherwise does just fine on it.
 



When he got to us, we found out he was also deaf. He is a VERY ACTIVE boy that desperately needs a J-O-B! He knows several hand signals and is very good in the house and in his crate. He is dog door trained, good w/ dogs, although does like to fancy himself as alpha dog. He LOVES to play with other dogs, but at his foster home now, the other dogs don't play with him much. His owner has a debilitating illness that causes her to need to sleep a lot. She is unable to provide him the exercise and stimulation that he needs and as a result he is acting up in the household. She is one of my long term fosters and has always been great with deaf dogs and dominant dogs, but is having a harder time lately. She really needs an easier dog, but is not willing to give up on Zip which I admire greatly. 
 


He really needs more right now and is becoming sexually mature and testing the boundaries more and more. If he was able to get out and run and play, this would be hardly an issue. Is there anyone out there that can help us by providing a forever home or a long term foster home for Zip?

He really is a FABULOUS dog with typical ACD behaviors that can be fixed. If we can find a long term foster home, we will do the necessary fundraising to try and fix his foot and give him a second chance. At this point, we will consider foster homes in or out of AZ and will reduce his adoption fee by 50-75% for the right home.

Blind kittens, MO. Need Homes

CONTACT LAURA,  laura.l.coe@gmail.com


I am in a situation and could use some advice. I found 3 feral male kittens that were appx 4 weeks old. The mother, who appeared healthy and was being fed by tenants of an apartment building, was nursing them, but the kittys were very very sick. I watched them for a week and then realized that if I didn't intervene, they would surely die. They had eye infections and couldn't see. They were walking around in a very dangerous place. I took them to a vet to get them some medicine. The vet told me he couldn't be sure if they would regain their vision or not. He wormed them, gave me eye meds, and oral meds and kmr and science diet canned food. I was vacationing at the time, but I followed the treatment plan exactly as the vet ordered. They responded well to the treatment, so I took them home and continued to care for them. Last week I took them to my vet. Sadly, two of the kittys will probably never see again. The third one recovered completely. These are beautiful, playful, healthy kittens. My vet tested for feline leukemia and the results were negative. I will keep the one that can see, but I can not keep the blind kittys. I have 4 children, 2 large cat hating dogs, and one small cat loving housedog. I would constantly be fearful that the kittys would get out a door left ajar, or the dogs would get in and injur them, or they would injur themselves on the things that get strewn about my house from the kid. If I take the kittys to the shelter, they will be put down. Do you know any resources that might help me find foster homes or adoptive homes for the blind ones? I really, really wish I could keep them, but my home just isn't suitable for a pet that can not see. They would make great pets and after all they've been through, I will make every effort to find them homes before resorting to the dog pound.I can't keep them forever and the sooner I get them in a stable home, the better. Their birthdate, according to the vet, is around July 5th. Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated. I live in Missouri. I would be will to drive them to a new home or arrange for them to get there, if one were to be found.  Oh-the one kitty does have a potential medical issue. One of his eyes was ruptured before I was able to rescue him. The vet said the eye may need to be removed but is ok for the time being.

Marietta, GA - 10 year old boxer girl needs a cart for mobility - PLEASE HELP !!

Reply to: comm-422399931@craigslist.org  at craigslist.org

I have a 10 year old boxer that has all her life acted like a puppy until
recently. She has been diagnosed with lower back disc disease. It just
breaks my heart watching her drag her body across the floor, and It kills
more when she tries to hold herself up trying to go to the bathroom. I need
to know if anyone knows of a company out there that makes the carts at a
cheaper cost for those people that just don't have 3 or 4 hundred dollars
just lying around. I would do anything for my dog, she has so much life left
in her and she just seems so miserable. Can anyone help me?!!!

EMERGENCY - Greeneville, TN - DEAF, WHITE CAT IS STARVING, Needs someone to come feed him/her !!!

lhasaluvr@secludedhearts.org at secludedhearts.org

Please Crosspost to Cat Rescue Groups - I don't belong to any


About a year ago, a lady who lives next door to my ex husband was ordered to move out of her house. She is a cat hoarder and had more than a hundred cats at her home. The shelter came in and trapped the cats, euthanized them. One was left behind.


This is a deaf, white cat - I am not even sure if it is a male or female. But it's a nice cat and will come when you coax it. My ex husband lives next door to where the hoarder lived, and has fed the cat ever since it was left behind. His father is in the hospital here in MD and is dying. It's a very sad sitaution. Ex was just going to stay for a few days, so he left food and water out for the cat, but only enough for a few days. His father is in very bad shape and is not going to live. So my ex is staying here until he passes. But the cat needs help and needs help now,?and needs food. The cat has been without food for a week. I just found this out.


Is there anyone at all who can please go feed this cat? If a rescue can even take the cat and find it a good home, that would be even better. This cat is living outside. This is a rural area and there are a lot of coyotes. I don't want to call the pound there, the cat would never make it out alive and I am pretty sure they use gas.


If anyone is able to help, please contact me offlist and I will give you the information. I will be glad to paypal money for food.


Thanks so much,

Lynn
