Answer to prayer...Winston has been adopted to a wonderful couple. Thank you Lord.
Emergency Foster or forever home needed. He's extremely sweet. He's only three. He would make a great companion for a single person who wants a best friend buddy. He is very devoted and loving. He has a slight sight impairment but can still see shapes, toys, trees and people. He can run and play and hang out in the back yard on his own. In the one photo he's running in the yard with a child. He does well inside. Walks well on a leash. He's a nice dog. He is fearful of other dogs since he can't see them too well. He probably should be be an only dog unless you have an easy going dog and are patient to teach trust.. He loved the 10 year old children who came to visit. He's an Australian Shepherd. For direct information contact text message to 253-820-5863 I would be happy to answer any questions.

This kitty needs a new home by Sunday. This is not a scd cat. Owner is military and unable to take cat with him.

""...cat needs rehoming this week:

Our cat named Persius is looking for a home.
I am relocating for work and cannot take her with me.
Persius is an outdoor cat.
She is long haired and multi-colored.
My partner and I have had her for about 3 years.
She came to us on her own.
She is very calm and appreciates affection.
We made her a comfortable bed that was off the ground for safety.
In the cold weather I provided a marine heater to keep her warm which she took to very well.
I am hoping she will get relocated to a place where she can sleep out of the rain and be safe from predators that might be around, especially out in the countryside. She is kind of a city cat.
She has come into our home occasionally, like during Holidays with fireworks.
She just stays in one area after looking around a little bit until we let her out again.
She seems to be partially toilet trained because I put a litter box outside near her and she used it occasionally.
She has a very minor skin issue where sometimes she gets a scab. I think this is just because I have not regularly washed her. When I did use pet shampoo it went away.
She might be chipped but I have not had that checked.
She is on the older side.
She is quiet and doesn’t get into fights.
On the few occasions where she was confronted by another cat, she just stayed put and waited until the other cat left.
Raccoons have approached her area and she just stays put.
She likes affection and will sit on a lap and enjoys purring and maybe falling asleep.
If approached too quickly, she may move away. But then I call her and she usually comes back unless she is having a bad cat day - which doesn’t happen much. 🙂
She eats dry cat food. I have provided a very healthy dry food.
She really likes wet cat food.

Please share!" Cat is in Rainier wa.

His # is +1 (360) 688-3922

Hi good friends, followers and animal lovers.
This is a sweet senior who was loved and carried for in a warm, loving home. Now, this poor guy is stuck outside in a kennel all alone. Can you open your heart and home.
SCD would like to help a senior dog named Weston who was put in a kennel over a month ago by a family member when his owner went into the hospital. Sadly the owner passed away there.
This devoted, gentle companion is still in the kennel wondering where his owner is and why he is there. Weston was with Harvey but poor little Harvey died two days ago...two losses for Weston.
An answer to prayer...A very kind gentleman who loves dogs has taken him home. Thank you Lord and thank you Gil.

An answer to prayer......A kind gentleman has taken him home.

He now has his FOREVER home. Weston is a 12 year old neutered lab Pittie mix. One of our volunteers went to meet him and said he is very sweet. It was hard for her to get a closeup picture of him because he was just so happy for human contact, rubbing and comforting attention.
He was brought there with Harvey and now he is alone. Weston is good with all people and other dogs..
He has a few senior lumps but otherwise is in good health.

Weston desperately needs a foster. We want him to know that he isn't forgotten, that someone cares and that he won't end up alone in a shelter or there till his last breath.

Rescue will provide pre-approved necessary medical, soft bed, leashes, tag, and dog food.

Please look at Westons sweet worried face. He must be sad, confused and feeling so alone.
Please help us to help him. Please message us if you can help or have any question. Thank you.

Emergency. We need your help. This little malteses owner put him in a kennel for 3 weeks. He is blind. He doesn't know where his dad is, who passed at the hospital. He is at Wellcare veterinary hospital right now.
His eyes are caked close with black hard debris. His ears are so infected he had puss coming out of them.
He is skin and bones. His teeth are so rotted and his p***s is dry and stuck out 2 inches.

We want him to be warm, clean, infection free, hand fed and knowing he is loved. This is truely heartbreaking. His name is Harvey. We recently rescued a 15-year-old Maltese who has been through so much. His owner passed away three weeks ago, and he’s been left in a kennel, skin and bones. His ears are infected, one is oozing pus, and his eyes are crusted shut. He doesn’t understand what happened to his dad, and he deserves to be free from pain and surrounded by love for whatever time he has left. We just picked him up today, and he’s in rough shape. We’re at the vet now, and the estimated cost is about $450 without bloodwork.

He needs his eyes and ears cleaned, antibiotics, and care for his dry, stuck-out p***s. Please help us give him the loving care he deserves. Like, comment, and share this post to help us reach more people who can support his recovery.
