🌟 Big News Coming for Worf + Meet Crown Prince Squash 🌟

For everyone following Worf’s incredible journey, we’ve got something amazing to share tomorrow—stay tuned for an exciting update that will warm your heart!

But today, we want to introduce you to another little fighter who needs all the love and support we can give: Crown Prince Squash. 💛

This 5-month-old Rat Terrier mix was found abandoned in a crate at a car wash in Manteca. A Good Samaritan stepped in to save him, and now he’s in our care. Prince suffered severe injuries to his jaw and is facing multiple surgeries to repair the damage. He may even need his jaw wired, but right now, the priority is getting him stable and comfortable.

When Prince arrived, he was in shock and rushed to Well Pet Animal Hospital, where their incredible team jumped into action. Thanks to their care, he’s starting his recovery, but he has a long road ahead.

📸 Note: We’ve covered the worst of Prince's injuries in these photos, as they are difficult to see. Please know that while he’s hurting now, he’s receiving the best possible care and plenty of love.

💛 How You Can Help 💛
Prince's journey to healing will be long and costly, and we need your help to give him the best chance at a full recovery. Your donations will go directly toward his medical care, including surgeries, medications, and ongoing treatment.

👉 Donate here: https://www.beourpet.org/donations.php

Together, we can show Prince he’s not alone and help him feel safe, loved, and cared for again. Thank you for being part of his rescue story—and don’t forget to check back tomorrow for Worf’s exciting update!

🐾 State of the Rescue: Pet Insurance Saves Lives 🐾

Every day, pets like this sweet guy are surrendered to shelters because their families can’t afford unexpected veterinary bills. Many of these pets come in with serious medical needs, and that’s where we step in. We ensure they receive vital care: vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures, dental treatments, and more. But their care doesn’t stop there—it’s a lifelong commitment.

As a pet owner, your animals deserve consistent, quality medical care for their entire lives. That’s where pet insurance can make all the difference. It ensures your pet gets the care they need, no matter what surprises life throws your way.

What Can You Do?
📚 Research pet insurance options: Find a policy that fits your budget and your pet’s needs.
💡 Start early: The younger and healthier your pet, the more affordable insurance can be.
🛡️ Plan for the future: Medical needs don’t end with vaccines—they grow as your pet ages.

Unfortunately, not all pets get this opportunity. When families can’t provide lifelong care, rescues fill a critical need—but we can't do it without your support.

Fostering is critical to our mission. By opening your home to a foster pet, you allow us to continue helping animals with medical needs, giving them the chance to heal and find loving homes.

💖 Ready to make a difference? Learn more about fostering or donate to support our work at https://www.beourpet.org.

Age: Now 12 Months
Breed: German Shepard Mix (Possibly part English Bull Terrier)
Size: Medium (27lbs)

Maybelline came to us through the most unfortunate of circumstances and may be one of the worst abuse cases we've ever seen. She was confiscated from her owners with multiple broken ribs, a broken femur, a broken jaw, and a broken back. She also was diagnosed with brain injuries and was left completely blind due to her injuries. She was lethargic and in extremely bad shape. Luckily, with the amazing care of Antioch Animal Services and the East Bay VCA, she was able to make huge strides towards recovery. They reached out several months ago and asked us to take her into our Rescue and give her time to heal.

When an animal goes through what Maybelline has been through they are typically very scared and shy animals. That is NOT Maybelline. This strong and resilient girl is as happy as can be. She is constantly wearing a big bright smile and wagging her big bushy tail. She LOVES people‍‍ and loves belly scratches even more. She is the sweetest girl in the world. Because of her blindness and brain injuries she does have a hard time getting around. Maybelline tends to wobble when she walks due to her spinal injury and often loses her footing resulting in her falling over. We have found that she does really well with boots on her back feet.

Maybelline is good with dog saavy cats (mostly because she can't see them). She is very friendly with other dogs. She would not do well around super small fragile dogs because she could accidentally step on them. She also should be watched around super small children for the same reason so as not to accidentally knock them over. She loves to chew on toys and bones and absolutely loves to play. Potty training has been a big challenge because of her obvious cognitive and physical challenges. But she has done so well recently as long as she has access to the yard she will take herself out 8/10 times. She does wear diapers at night and if left alone for a longer period of time so to make sure she does not have an accident and accidently step in it. She is super good about letting us put her diaper on when needed. Her diet has been great and she loves food. She doesn't go on typical walks but loves to go to the park where she can sniff around and explore at her own pace.

Maybelline has been through so much but she is one big ball of love who is begging for the family she deserves. All she needs is for someone to not give up on her and give her a chance. We can't change her past but hopefully we can give her a future full of love and care. What she needs is a patient person who will allow and accept her to be her unique and beautiful self. Not only will you be rewarded in all the kisses you can stand but her heart is so big you will never feel like anything less than the most important and loved person in the entire world by this sweet girl.

If you are interested in adding this amazing, special and deserving girl into your family, please send us an email to [email protected] . She is being fostered near Sacramento CA.

Our is Nyx. There is no adoption fee for Pet of the Week to approved homes.

A huge THANK YOU to Salma I. for choosing Umbrella of Hope for her Eagles project. Salma chose to make dog beds for her Eagle Scout Service Project which will earn her high marks for her efforts. To understand what was involved Salma had to create a plan, draw the plans, list supplies needed, estimate the cost and raised the funds to complete the project.

They are amazing and you can see that our own little “star” WORF STARTREK just had to be the first dog to try them out. He approves!!

Thank you Salma and her group for the amazing beds.

This week we want to share with you our CH kitten Radish all grown up… Radish was adopted in June 2022 and he’s now a little over 2 years old. His new name is Apollo and he’s the most handsome cat we have seen. He’s living his best life and his family adores him. Thank you for choosing to give a special needs animal a forever home 🥰

RAVE -- SF Bay Area but transport could be arranged



Senior Cat for Senior Person -- SPONSORED (please read!)

Cinderblox is a ~10 yr old spayed female who came to us EIGHT months ago at a *ROBUST* 25 lbs. With special food and encouraged play time, she is now a svelte 17 lbs and is only 2 lbs away from her goal weight.

While her diet has been successful, she has not yet found her forever home. The camera does not do her justice and we suspect that -- along with being a black (and white) cat -- is the reason it has been so hard for her

She is healthy, littertrained and cat friendly. She is spayed, microchipped, negative for FIV/FeLv, vaccinated and free of parasites.

We have not seen her around dogs. She is agreeable to respectful children but is more 'tea-party' than 'superhero'

A special friend of Umbrella of Hope has agreed to help sponsor her to make her more adoptable.

If she finds a home before 1/1/25, she will come with sponsored food for her LIFETIME (she is on a prescription diet). She will come with her special water fountain to encourage her to drink more water. And of course there is NO adoption fee but our regular adoption requirements stand.

(Disclaimer: Yes, we've been around the block. We've done this for 14+ years. We know how to screen appropriate homes. No, we don't need the peanut gallery screaming about charging an adoption fee to ensure a good home. That's actually not true and we are the experts here. TIA)

Our benefactor is SO motivated to get her a forever home that she is flexible to help overcome barriers.

Have the perfect home in mind BUT...???

What is the "but"?? Is it something we can work with? Her food is covered for life -- so no food costs. Is it a pet deposit? Maybe we can help! Is it routine vet care like vaccines?

Our benefactor may be able to overcome the "but"... so give us a chance!

We might even have the flexibility to give some sort of "bonus" to whomever refers her forever home to us. Few bags of pet food? Update your pet's vaccines? We have some flexibility for the next month :)

Let's make a deal

Please email [email protected] for more information on Cinderblox

***we will exhaust all attempts of placing her within a reasonable driving distance before trying to figure our air transport. However, this is a possibility at no cost to the adopter if we exhaust local options. Please email us anyway. We can get her to most Major US airports to flexible adopters willing to meet standby flights and the off-duty attendants who es**rt them in-cabin in their spare time***

Any donations raised in this post, will be used to purchase any needed supplies for Cinderblox's new home and any additional funds will be used t provide ongoing food and care for her as needed by her eventual adopter. All of her medical needs have been handled, so no donations are needed for that at this time.
