We need help.

This is Sol. For those who didn’t follow her story on my social media a couple weeks ago, here it is.

My boyfriend and I recently went on a trip to Brazil and 2 days before our return flight, we found Sol on the side of the road. Sol was extremely dehydrated and skinny, we stopped to offer her water and some snacks we had in the car, but after realizing how weak she was, we couldn’t leave her there. We put her in the car and drove her to a nearby veterinary clinic.

Unfortunately, we found out at the clinic that she was not only dehydrated and malnourished, but also positive for Canine Distemper, a contagious and serious disease caused by a virus that attacks the respiratory, gastrointestinal and nervous systems of unvaccinated dogs.

After over $500 and 2 long days of struggling to find a foster family that would be willing to keep Sol during her treatment, we were finally able to place her in a home with someone who will be watching her for about 40 days.

The really hard part comes now. As soon as Sol is done with her treatment for Distemper in about 3 weeks, we want to bring her to the States and give her a chance to a happy life in a loving home.

For those who don’t know, bringing a dog to the US from a South American country is quite hard and expensive. Between tests, vaccines, certificates and flight tickets, we’d be spending almost $3k. That’s where we need help.

We are hoping that anyone with a loving heart for animals would help us give Sol the life she deserves by donating to get her here.

Even the smallest donation would help. We have about a month to raise as much as possible to make this possible.

If you can’t donate, please help us by sharing our story and letting as many people as possible know. We are counting on our community.

⚠️ URGENT HELP NEEDED ⚠️We just rescued Sol from a busy highway in Brazil. She is extremely malnourished and dehydrated and tested positive for canine distemper. Her treatment and boarding will cost us about $2k plus the costs of sending her to the US to get adopted. She is currently at the clinic waiting for us to put together enough money to board her for treatment.

If you can help us save her, please donate using cashapp ($miamvargas), zelle (407-789-5782) or venmo (brendenjpeterson).

Hi everyone! We have 3 kittens that will be available for adoption soon through . Let us know if you or someone you know may be interested! 💖

*The first 2 are girls and the last one is a boy!

Meet Daisy! At only 1 year and 11 months, Daisy was suddenly diagnosed with severe kidney failure with high levels of intoxication in the blood. The veterinarians still have no explanation about what Daisy actually has, but at this point, the goal is to save her life and give her more time until the doctors find out what Daisy has.

Daisy, who is turning two years old this month (March 2022), was rescued by her owner, Bia, when she was just 8 weeks old, during the pandemic. Ever since the day Daisy arrived, infested with fleas, sick and scared, she already made herself at home and now Daisy is a part of the family. And her family will do anything to save her life!

It's been two weeks since Daisy was hospitalized and over $30k was spent. They already saw 3 different doctors and now Daisy is at the University of Florida, where they said that dialysis is her ONLY CHANCE and they need to act NOW. The cost for 2 months of treatment and hospitalization alone is $25k. Daisy owners will do anything to save her life, but they need YOUR help!

Daisy is not even 2 years old, has a doggy sister, and 5 family members that cannot imagine a life without her. Please help us save Daisy's life. We need you and Daisy needs us!

Anyone looking for an adorable male ginger kitten?

Yesterday as we were picking up Art from his foster home for his adoption, someone stopped us in the parking lot and said they had just gotten this kitten from craigslist for free but he came with fleas so they don’t want him anymore and will be giving him away and “getting a new one who’s not sick”… I know 🤬…

Of course we spoke to the owners and explained the responsibilities of having a pet and gave them the whole speech, but we do think that this kitten will be better in a home where the people are ready to take proper care of him.

Unfortunately we don’t have the funds or a foster home available to take the kitten in, but we are currently in contact with the owners and will be picking up the kitten if anyone is interested in adopting.

In this case due to the lack of funds and fosters we would be making a “temporary” adoption contract similar to the “foster to adopt contract” and the family will be responsible for taking the baby to his vaccine and neuter appointments (still covered by the adoption fee).

He is EXTREMELY sweet and seems like he’ll do good with other cats, dogs and even kids (older than 5yo).

If he seems like the perfect fit for you, please fill out an application using the following link: https://forms.gle/dpGvXM9AYuMQ8nW46

To help us cover vet expenses for this baby you can help with donations 🤍

Isn’t this the cutest face in the world? Mr. Man here is the sibling of the kittens on the previous post. Turns out we had missed 2 and they ended ip coming in a couple days later. Unfortunately, at least 2 of those kittens will need to be TNVRed since they are not friendly enough to be adopted, but this little guy definitely loves the indoor life. He already got his first shot and will get fixed soon. Please DM us if you’re interested in giving him a forever home. He will probably do better in a home with no children or dogs since he can be a little fearful of the unknown, but definitely warms up to the people around him and will love to cuddle with his new family!

You thought kitten season was over? HAHA! So did we…

These 4 cuties are the babies of a mama who was just trapped for TNR. The amazing lady who took them in is also responsible for getting their mama and some other adult cats fixed in her neighborhood, and she needs our help getting these babies to forever homes. They’re still a little skittish since it’s only been a few days since they got introduced to the indoor life, but we’re pretty confident that they’ll adjust well. We’re estimating about 6-7 weeks. They all still need to get their shots, microchip and fixed, so it’ll be a while until they’re available. In the meantime we would love your help with donations to make sure they get the care they need. If you’re willing to foster to adopt, that’s also an option and it’d be great to help with their socialization!

Please consider helping us help them!

This is Echo. Echo has been with me for over 2 months now. I found her at about 10 weeks old outside of my family’s house with a severe case of scabies and a bad upper respiratory infection. Echo went through over a month of treatment and learning to trust humans. She came such a long way… Echo is the type of cat to choose one person and make that her best friend. I think that’s what makes it so hard to let her go, because I wanna make sure that she finds someone who loves her as much as I do. It takes her a while to come out of her shell and trust her surroundings, but once she does, she becomes the sweetest girl in the world. Echo has learned that she really likes other cats and can stand being around dogs as long as they don’t have a lot of energy and respect her space. Because of her difficulty trusting others I believe she would be perfect for a home with one more cat or small dog, but that doesn’t rule out other options. Echo would not be ideal for a home with kids or a loud environment since she does need more of a quite place to feel safe. Echo LOVES her cat towers and string toys and will definitely cuddle up with you for bed time. She can also be a great work buddy since she loves to sit next to (or on top of) the laptop 😅 Echo is probably one of the hardest fosters I will ever let go of, so that’s why this post is so personal. I really hope someone will fall in love with my girl and give her everything I, unfortunately, can’t. 🤍 Love, Mia.

Meet Gin! 🦁

Gin aka Ginger is another TNR baby who decided that indoors is much better 😅 While he lived with a cat colony the past year, he would probably do best as an only cat. We witnessed him get into fights with the more submissive cats and get beat up by the more alpha cats outside. He is alone now in foster home and he seems happier than I’ve seen him 🤣 He really does enjoy being the spoiled only child. Not sure how he would be with kids, but dogs are a toss up. He’s approached his rescuer’s dogs before, then quickly run away. No spraying behavior from him and he uses the litter box wonderfully. The only destructive behavior we’ve observed from him is that he has it out for toilet paper rolls 😂 He’s very playful and loving, so we think that indoor life really suits him! He’s a cuddler 🥰 Please DM us for more info or apply using the link below!

‼️ URGENT HELP NEEDED FOR TACO ‼️

Taco’s family is going through every pet parent’s worse nightmare and we are trying to help them out.

Taco is a 3yo chihuahua who’s been extremely healthy since a baby and suddenly lost movement of her back legs. Taco’s family rushed her to the vet yesterday, 13th, after Taco started dragging her legs and urinating blood. The doctor recommended x-rays and bloodwork to get started and then getting a consult with a specialist, but the family cannot afford it. We stepped in to help make sure that Taco gets the treatment she needs and deserves, but for that, we need help from the community.

We will be scheduling an appointment at BluePearl soon, but we are estimating at least $600 at first with the radiographs, complete blood cell count, internal organ function, electrolytes, and the office fees for all the vet visits.

If you can’t help financially, please share the post. To donate, please use any of the below:

Meet Lizzy 🌸

Lizzy is 1 of 3 sisters who are looking for a forever home. Her and her 2 sisters, Penny and Rigby, were rescued almost 6 months ago and haven’t found a family yet. Lizzy is definitely the most social out of the 3, but would still be better in a home with other pets. Because they grew up together we will require that her forever home has a least one other furry friend to keep her company. Lizzy is very brave and gets along well with cats and dogs. She has a deeper meow than you would expect 🤣 Their mom is about 7lbs, so she will likely be small at full adult weight.

🌸 8 months old

🌸 spayed

🌸 microchipped

🌸 utd on shots and dewormer

🌸 good with cats and dogs

Chloe was surrender at 11:40 AM on May 3, 2021.

We would like to clarify a few things about Chloe’s situation.

In January of 2021, we were contacted asking for help for a dog who was adopted from OCAS and its owners didn’t want to keep her anymore. They never mentioned that Chloe was not good with other dogs. We took her in, placed her in a foster home where they fell in love with her and decided to adopt. The same owners were working with a trainer.

A few months later, we received a phone call saying that Chloe attacked the dog she lived with. The owner’s daughter tried to intervene and got bit pretty bad in the face by Chloe. After that, she started to be very aggressive with them.

We got Chloe, placed her in an amazing foster home with no other pets. Chloe stayed there until her bite quarantine was over and while we waited to see if Animal Services would step in since the daughter had to go to the ER and report the incident.

After that period and no contact from animal services, Chloe was placed in a foster-to-adopt home, with no other dogs or young kids. Everything was fine until she tried to attack them for no reason. They called us and we picked her up. Chloe went to the previous foster home.

Less than 2 hours after we dropped her off at the foster home, we received a phone call from them. Chloe had torn the leash and chased a puppy who was walking with its owners. She grabbed the dog and wouldn’t let go. The dog was not close to her or invading her personal space. Foster parents and puppy ended up in the ER/Emergency vet. A new report was made to animal services.

We have been in contact with other groups since the first incident asking for help and support since we were not receiving it as we used to. Unfortunately, everyone was full. We contacted boarding facilities, but they were all booked until June.

Chloe is a great dog, but when it comes to the point where she puts people and other pets in the community in danger multiple times, it is hard to continue.

We tried until the last minute. We really did. Unfortunately, we couldn’t and our last (and only) option was to surrender Chloe to OCAS.

Please don’t believe everything you read on social media.

🐶 PLUTO NEEDS A HOME 🐶

This sweet 9mo American Staffordshire Terrier Mix has been with us for 2 months now and the only application we received for him didn’t work out, so he is desperately looking for a forever home. Pluto was already rehomed 3 times in his short life due to being too “overwhelming”. Pluto is a very high energy puppy that needs training and space to exercise. He does great with other large dogs and would really benefit from a play buddy. He is also okay with cats, just doesn’t understand why they don’t wanna play with him 😅 We will prioritize applicants with fenced in yards and no small children because of his strength and energy, so if that’s your family he would be a perfect match. If you’re the perfect match for this baby please fill out the application on the link below 💚
