There was a tornado in Ohio and we’ve taken the decision to postpone Mama Sweetpea’s transport.

As many of you may know and may even have been affected by, the part of Ohio where Companion Pets of Cleveland is located was struck by a tornado recently. Thankfully no-one was hurt but substantial damage was done to the power grid, with many homes without power for long periods of time.

We had planned to send Sweetpea to Ohio this coming weekend, and initially we hoped we’d still be able to run transport. However, after thorough consideration we’ve decided it simply isn’t the right time to be advertising Sweetpea for adoption - the community needs time to adjust and get back to normal.

Sending Sweetpea to Ohio now, in the aftermath of the tornado, just doesn’t make sense.

Therefore, we’re going to keep hold of her down here in Texas for a few more weeks while everyone gets caught back up. Our current plan is to send Sweetpea to Ohio in early September.

In the meantime we continue to hold all those affected by the tornado in our thoughts and will keep posting updates about Sweetpea as she gets ever closer to finding her forever home.

Thank you all for your continued support of our rescue, we couldn’t do this without you 💗🐾🐶

🌟 We secured our first grant! 🌟

Back in March we applied to the Binky Foundation for funds to keep Bo’s Project, our trap-neuter-vaccinate-return program, going.

We are delighted to share that the Binky Foundation awarded us one of their First Steps Grants for $1,000!! We are going to devote the entire grant to Bo’s Project.

Bo’s Project was started after a tiny kitten, Bo, was surrendered into our care. Sadly Bo was very sick with a severe upper respiratory infection. Despite getting him evaluated by our wonderful vets and starting him on antibiotics within an hour of receiving him, his little body was just too tired and he didn’t survive.

In that moment, we resolved to start a TnR program that would care for the health of community cats by testing for deadly diseases and following vaccination protocols on top of sterilization - all care would be provided through a full service veterinary practice. Bo’s Project was born.

Bo’s Project started with a pilot program, we ran donation drives and raised $1,400. With that money we not only sterilized, vaccinated, and health tested 3 cats, but we also provided extra surgical intervention to help clear out deeply infected bite wounds and resolve other medical issues to significantly improve the life of each these community cats.

We may be small but we aim to focus on each animal in our care, doing everything we can to help them live a long, healthy and pain-free life. That philosophy extends to our community cats.

We are overjoyed that the Binky Foundation recognized these first-step efforts to help control our community cat population and keep it heathy. We are so grateful to everyone at the Binky Foundation for this grant, and we are looking forward to growing our TnR program.

We are so excited! Stay tuned for updates 🐾🐈🐈‍⬛🐾

Mama Sweetpea 🌸

We have great news! Mama Sweetpea has been medically cleared by our wonderful vet and is ready to find a forever home all of her own!

Mama has been in rescue for 5 months, by far one of our longest foster dogs. In that time she has had a remarkable transformation. She came to us underweight and with chronic skin issues. And who can forget the half-pound mammary tumor dangling from her body that had been left to grow for so long that it had outgrown its blood supply and was starting to rot? Sweetpea was exhausted.

But just look at her now!

Throughout her entire recovery Mama Sweetpea has been the perfect house guest, open to gently sniffing around the garden before the South Texas mornings get too hot, and sleeping off the rest of the day on the couch, in the cool AC, waking up to eat dinner and snuggle up to watch Netflix. She has taken every med, surgery and every vet visit in her stride, quickly becoming a favorite of anyone who meets her.

To say we have loved our time with Sweetpea is an understatement. We are over the moon with happiness that this wonderful lady has recovered and is finally ready to find a forever home of her own - my goodness does she deserve it!

Mama Sweetpea will be available for adoption via our partner rescue, Companion Pets of Cleveland.

All that’s left is for us to soak up some more of those wonderful smiles while we organize transport north to Ohio.

Thank you all for your support of our rescue. We couldn’t have helped Mama Sweetpea without you 💗🐾🐶

🐾 What is Lucky Penny Rescue? 🐾

We are an at home, foster based, 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue in Laredo, Texas. While our main focus is dogs, we are growing in the area of cat rescue and TnR.

We primarily work with our city shelter here in Laredo, identifying dogs on the pre-euthanasia and euthanasia list who are at immediate risk due to overcrowding or health concerns.

In collaboration with our incredible partner, Companion Pets of Cleveland, we have rescued puppies, senior dogs, pregnant dogs and very sick dogs who had to be hospitalized immediately upon release. More recently, we have also rescued tiny kittens and blind kittens.

Here are some of the cases where we were able to help out our furry friends:

🐶 Pixie: Pixie came to us at less than 12-months-old and pregnant. She was scheduled for euthanasia at the city shelter due to space concerns. Unfortunately, she had mated with a male dog who was much bigger than her, and so, despite only carrying 2 puppies, they were very large and she had a complicated pregnancy. In the end, she had to have an emergency c-section to save her life. Happily, Pixie and her babies survived, but we had to bottle feed the puppies for the first few days of their lives while Pixie recovered. Today, all three now live in wonderful homes.

🐶 Spud was scared, underweight, with an upper respiratory infection and wounds all over his little body at various stages of healing - some new, some clearly very old. Whatever had happened to him, it was rough. We released him from the euthanasia list, and rebuilt his confidence while healing his injuries. Spud now lives happily in a wonderful home and is loved beyond measure.

🐶 Cotton & Jelly Bean were confiscated by the city as part of an animal neglect and abuse case. Cotton (white) entered the shelter pregnant and gave birth to her puppies before she was eligible for rescue release. Sadly, all her puppies died and by time we managed to release her she had developed an infection in her uterus. Jelly Bean (black) likely entered the shelter with a recently broken leg which healed on its own but which she was very reluctant to put weight on. Happily, we managed to spay them, heal them and build their confidence, and they were adopted into very loving homes.

🐈 Lucy was surrendered to our vets office. She was found as a stray kitten with extensive medical issues, and the person who found her couldn’t afford the medical bills to treat her. We scooped Lucy up and hospitalized her. Our vet and techs worked really hard to try and save Lucy’s eyes, but unfortunately they ruptured due to the chronic infection and had to be removed. Lucy’s recovery was far from straight forward, she required multiple surgeries and frequent visits to our vet clinic, but it was all worth it to see her living the good life in her forever home.

🐶 Mama Sweetpea is our current foster and has been with us since February. She was found at a gas station, almost bald and covered in fleas and ticks, she has a scar on one eye, a missing claw on one foot, and she was carrying around a 1/2 pound mammary tumor which was horribly infected. Mama Sweetpea has been with us for 5 months and has made an incredible recovery.

Thank you all for your support. We appreciate you. 🐾💗🐶🐈

🌟 Milestone Achieved! 🌟

Lucky Penny Rescue now has 1,000 followers!

We wanted to mark this moment by sharing our immense gratitude with everyone who has come along on this journey with us. We have learned a lot in the last 4 years, and we are so glad to have done this with you.

Over the last 4 years, we’ve grown our community, seeking to create a space where people feel involved and are an active part of our rescue, from sharing advice, commenting and sharing our posts to help raise awareness, to donating to help us pay medical bills and food bills, to sending us toys and blankets and beds to help our rescues recover and learn how to live in a home as part of a family. Out of this community we have developed a volunteer transport team comprised of 50 people who come together multiple times a year to drive our rescues and host them overnight all the way from us in South Texas to our partner in Ohio, getting them one step closer to their forever homes.

Since we began in February of 2020, we have rescued 33 animals - most coming from the euthanasia list at our city shelter, with some coming in as strays. None of this would ever have been possible without the wonderful people at Companion Pets of Cleveland, who took a chance on us to help out our first dog Jewels. From there a beautiful relationship formed which created Lucky Penny Rescue Network. We are very proud and very grateful to partner with a rescue as wonderful as Companion Pets of Cleveland and we look forward to our future as we continue to be partners and work together.

Now, we know that in the grand scheme of the Facebook world 1,000 followers may not be a lot, but to us it’s huge. To know that there are 1,000 people out there who care and want to follow along on the recovery and rehabilitation of these animals who were once discarded and forgotten about, is a wonderful thing. We are grateful for each and every one of you.

Thank you for being here, thank you for being part of our community, thank you for supporting us. We couldn’t do any of this without you 💗🐾🐶

Mama Sweetpea 🌸

Mama has been with us for a while, in fact she’s coming up on 6 months in foster care. Since Mama Sweetpea is one of our “long stay dogs,” we thought that we’d re-introduce her to everyone.

Mama was found in February of this year at a gas station. She was emaciated, had substantial hair loss, was covered in fleas and ticks, and was carrying around multiple mammary tumors, the biggest of which weighed half a pound and hung from her abdomen. The half pound tumor had been growing for so long that it had started to rot and had become infected.

She was also caring for a 12-month-old puppy who was still extremely dependent on her. At 12 months old, Mama would still clean her puppy after toileting.

Mama Sweetpea has clearly had a hard life, in addition to the very immediate signs of her neglect, she also has older injuries - she’s missing a claw and has a fairly substantial scar on one eye. But, despite all of this, she is one of the friendliest, most caring dogs we’ve ever had the pleasure to meet.

Thanks to our wonderful veterinary team, Mama’s large, necrotic mass was removed in addition to the other smaller masses, she has been spayed, vaccinated, she’s back up to a proper weight and we’ve made huge progress with her skin and coat. She’s had antibiotics, steroids, creams, pills and injections. Skin issues can take a long time to resolve but we feel like we’re getting really close.

But what about the other sides of Mama? Well, she loves the outside but hates walks. Every morning she happily trots around the garden with us as we have our morning coffee and check to see if any more tomatoes have grown. But, if you try and take Mama for a walk, she will go a few steps and then sit down, and then lay down and refuse to move. So, if you’re looking for a hiking companion, Mama is not your girl, but if you’re looking for the unconditional support of a gardening companion, then she’ll fill the role nicely.

Mama loves snuggles and enjoys binge watching Netflix - she doesn’t care what you’re watching, but she is partial to baking shows 🍰.

When it comes to food time Sweetpea will do an adorable little tippy tappy dance and will bark encouragement at you until she is fed.

Mama Sweetpea loves every single person she meets. It doesn’t matter if it’s one of the people who interacts with her every day, or a complete stranger, she loves everyone. She is especially fond of our resident 5-year-old, but we suspect this is because she knows that wherever he goes, Cheerios soon follow.

While it is never our intention to keep a dog as long as we’ve held on to Mama, sometimes a dog will come along who needs the extra level of care to get right-side-up again.

The concern with adopting a dog out before they’ve finished healing is that they may be returned to rescue - that the healing process is too much for a new adopter; or that the condition rebounds on us, and what we thought was straight forward ends up growing arms and legs and getting very complex. That’s why we make sure and hold onto our rescues until we’re confident they’re fully healed.

It’s thanks to you, our community who supports us, that we can offer this standard of care to all of our rescue animals. Thank you all for your help and support - we couldn’t do this without you.

If you’d like to support Mama Sweetpea’s ongoing care we really would appreciate the help 💗🐶🐾

Reilly is in Ohio!!! 🚙🐈

Day Three saw Reilly finish his travels through Kentucky and into Ohio, finally arriving at Companion Pets of Cleveland - woohoo!

We are so grateful to our rescue drivers, overnight hosts, and our fantastic transport monitor for everything they did for Reilly this weekend. We so appreciate the care and love you bestow on our rescues, making sure they safely arrive with Companion Pets of Cleveland. Every member of Lucky Penny Transport Group is part of the life-line between us in Texas and CPOC in Ohio - we couldn’t do this without you. Thank you!!

Reilly will be neutered on Thursday, and we’re sure it won’t be long before we’re letting you all know that this little bundle of fun and confidence has been adopted. 💗🐈🐾

Day Two of Transport 🚙🐈🐾

Day Two of transport saw Reilly leaving Texas after a wonderful overnight stay in Texarkana. From there he travelled clear through Arkansas, Tennessee and into Kentucky to spend the night.

As with the previous day, Reilly was a total champ on day two, charming everyone he met.

Day three is Reilly’s last day of transport where he’ll arrive in Ohio with Companion Pets of Cleveland!! Woohoo!!

14/07/2024

Day One of Transport! 🚙🐈

Day one of transport saw Reilly travel from South Texas all the way to Texarkana on the Texas/Arkansas border.

Reilly took to transport like a champ, settling down into his crate with his favorite cuddly toy. During the legs he’d sleep, but during transfers between drivers he was typically right up at the front of his crate, supervising everything that was going on.

Cats travel with more luggage than dogs because we send litter boxes that fit in the crate, bigger litter boxes for the overnight stay, pellet litter for being on the road (less mess) and clumping clay litter for the overnight stays. We also send toys, food, beds, and a playpen. The playpen keeps Reilly contained and out of mischief while his overnight hosts sleep 🤣🤞🐈.

We are so grateful to everyone who donated funds and items to Reilly to ensure that his rescue and transport have been smooth and straightforward.

We are also indebted to the 19 people who make up our volunteer drivers, overnight hosts and our transport monitor for all taking such great care of Reilly as he travels north to Companion Pets of Cleveland. Thank you all.

13/07/2024

And he’s off! Little Reilly is on transport to Ohio! 🚙🐾🐈

Yesterday afternoon we picked Reilly up from his wonderful foster as we got ready to start transport in the early hours of Saturday morning.

His foster has done such a great job with him that Reilly took to the change in his environment with ease, settling in quickly and confidently. He ate his dinner, played with his toys, and showed us some of that hilarious orange tabby cat attitude. 😼

This morning we packed up Reilly’s things, had one last snuggle and set off on the road north.

We are so excited for Reilly as he rides our volunteer transport network up to Companion Pets of Cleveland. We’ll be sure to post updates along the way 💗🐾🐈

11/07/2024

⭐️ Reilly’s volunteer transport run has filled!! ⭐️

This weekend 19 people will come together to drive, snuggle with, and host little Reilly overnight as he makes his way up to Ohio and our wonderful partner Companion Pets of Cleveland (CPOC).

Once in Ohio Reilly will be neutered, and we’re pretty sure this little guy is going to find a forever home all of his own pretty quick! 🏡💗

This will be our second cat transport on our volunteer network Lucky Penny Transport Group - we are so excited!

We want to send a huge thank you to everyone involved in Reilly’s rescue, from his foster, to his transport drivers, to our amazing rescue partner CPOC, to everyone who has donated to help us - we are so grateful for everything you do to support us.

Team work really does make this dream work!

Way to go Reilly! 🐾🐈💗

Reilly Is Good to Go! 🚙🐈

That’s right! This little kiddo, found at only a few days old in a parking lot covered in road dirt and car oil, has made it!

Not only has he made it, but he has thrived in foster care. Reilly is a happy, well-socialized 3-month kitten who is great around dogs, cats, kids, and adults. He’s also got that little bit of chaos that all orange cats seem to have, with his foster reporting that he can have the attitude of a lion wrapped up in his little 3lb body 🤣.

We are so happy for Reilly, and we are delighted to share that—due to the amazing efforts of his foster home—Reilly is healthy and ready to find a forever home of his own!

Yay Reilly!

We’re currently in the process of organizing Reilly’s transport north to Companion Pets of Cleveland - we still have 1 or 2 legs left to fill, but if all goes well Reilly will ride our transport network this weekend from Laredo to Ohio!

We are so grateful to Reilly’s wonderful foster and to everyone in our community who has supported Reilly’s rescue. Thank you all - we couldn’t do this without you.

Here are some photos looking back at Reilly’s journey in his wonderful foster home 💗🐈🐾

🆔 July 4th Safety - How to Make An ID Tag 🆔

With July 4th just around the corner we wanted to share this super helpful information from the wonderful folks over at Beauties and Beasts, Inc. about making an at-home ID tag for your furry kiddos so they have ID ahead of the fireworks.

In our community of Laredo, Texas fireworks start going off a few days before July 4th as folks practice ahead of the big event. Fireworks can be very scary for our furry companions who have hearing that is much better than ours. Even the most home-bound dog or cat can get scared and unexpectedly bolt out of the door.

While we always advocate for pets to have ID tags at all times, we understand that might not be possible for everyone. And so, we wanted to share this information for making a temporary ID tag using tape that you can fix to your dog or cat’s collar. If possible, we recommend doing this now so your kiddo is all set ahead of time. Please do not fix tape directly to your animal - only use this method if your dog or cat already has a collar that you can attach the tape to.

July 5th is one of the busiest days for animals shelters across the country. Dogs and cats with ID tags are much more likely to be reunited with their humans than those without. Making a phone number tag out of tape is a quick, inexpensive and effective way to protect your furry kiddos ahead of July 4th.

Thanks so much to Beauty and Beasts Inc for sharing this useful information.

Every year, the days leading up to and following the 4th of July, shelters everywhere fill up with animals frightened by fireworks.

While I honestly wish fireworks were never used, that's something that will never happen.

Currently, many shelters are at maximum capacity and there's no room to house anymore animals. While some shelters claim to be "no kill", don't be fooled, EVERY shelter has to make difficult decisions.

Please....beginning July 1st, put a phone number on your pet. You don't have to spend any money. Grab some tape duct tape works great and a sharpie or a ink pen and make the minimal effort to keep your pet from ending up at a shelter.

Even if you think there's no way they can or will escape your property, just do it.

If you love your pet(s) it's your job to protect them.

Finding a stray animal with a phone number makes it SO SIMPLE to reunite them with their owner.

Let's make a difference this holiday and keep animals from ending up at the shelter.

Please spay/neuter your pets.
We are drowning in homeless pets😔

Peanut was less than 6 months old when she was surrendered to our high-kill city shelter here in Laredo in early 2023.

Unfortunately for Peanut, our shelter is full of “little brown dogs” and she quickly found herself listed for euthanasia.

That’s where we stepped in and scooped her up. We worked with her for almost 3 months, getting her back up to health, fully vaccinated, and ready for transport. In May of 2023 Peanut met our amazing volunteer drivers and rode our transport network up to Ohio, where our ever wonderful rescue partner, Companion Pets of Cleveland spayed Peanut and found her the perfect forever home.

Peanut’s world is now full of love, family, pajama parties and snuggles. We are so grateful to Peanut’s adopters for giving her such a wonderful life.

If you’d like to support our work so we can continue to help dogs like Peanut, please consider donating today.

Thank you 🐾💗🐶

Reilly Update 💗🐾

Reilly is thriving under the expert care of his foster, putting on weight, exploring and learning all kinds of new skills through socialization. Reilly is cat friendly, dog friendly, kid friendly, and adult friendly. He transitioned to using a litter box like a champ and is eating solid food now. Reilly is an all around snuggle bug who loves attention and interaction.

We are so glad to see Reilly growing and developing so well!

Reilly still has some time in foster care before he’s old enough for vaccines and transport north to Companion Pets of Cleveland so in the meantime we’re going to enjoy every kitten snuggle we can get.

Thank you all for your support of our rescue - we couldn’t do this without you. 🐾💗🐈

Mama Sweetpea is doing great!

Over the last 2 weeks or so, we’ve noticed a big difference in her energy levels. It’s as if she’s finally slept off the exhaustion she came to us with and is getting a little spring back in her step.

She’s arthritic, as most senior dogs are, but she benefits a lot from daily glucosamine chews. A few days ago she even jumped up in the couch unaided, which we never thought would have been possible back in February when she first came into rescue.

Mama likes being outside in the back yard for little sniffs, but when we’ve tried to take her for walks she’ll go a little distance then sit; and then she’ll lay down, resisting any further movement 🤣. This may be due to the heat here in South Texas, despite us only walking her in the cooler parts of the morning; but even so, whichever home she ends up with should know she’s more of a couch potato with little sniffing breaks rather than a hiking companion.

We’re still struggling to shift the last of Mama’s skin issues - she’s getting hot spots, which are a kind of wet dermatitis. We had Mama back at the vet clinic last Saturday because we suspected a brand new hot spot was forming before the last one had fully healed, and our vet wanted to try and get ahead of it. Mama received an injection of a medication called Cytopoint, which will hopefully work with her immune system to support healthy skin, and will get a topical spray for 2 weeks on the affected area to see if we can’t get this all cleared up for her ahead of transport. Mama’s skin has improved greatly since earlier this year when she first came into rescue, but a combination of her breed and the length of time these issues have been untreated mean they fall into the category of chronic conditions, and she may be prone to seasonal flare ups triggered by allergies.

Much as we love having Mama around, we can tell that we’re approaching the time at which she’ll be ready to move on from us a find a forever home of her own. We’ve removed her cancer, spayed her, got her back up to weight, alleviated a lot of her stiffness and movement issues, and given her a nice safe place to decompress and heal. She’s regrown her coat and has overcome the majority of her skin problems with just a few stubborn spots remaining. She’s also yet to meet a person or animal that she’s doesn’t get along with - she is kid, adult, cat, and dog friendly.

We so appreciate your support of our rescue. Because of your support we can devote the time and care that dogs like Mama need to recover from a life in which she had been abandoned at a gas station while she was emaciated, covered in fleas and ticks, carrying around a half-pound necrotic tumor, and caring for her 12 month old puppy.

Mama is an amazing dog and we can’t wait to see her get the retirement home she so thoroughly deserves 💗🐾🐶

27/05/2024

This is Mama’s “why are you disturbing my nap?” face 🤣

We hope you’re all having a relaxing holiday weekend - just like Mama Sweetpea here 💗🐾🐶

‼️ PINKY IS LOST IN HOUSTON ‼️

Pinky is a Chinese Crested who is under the care of the amazing folks over at Tender Loving Crested Rescue (TLCR).

Pinky arrived in rescue on a Tuesday, she was just starting to decompress when the major storm hit Houston on Thursday. Heartbreakingly, amongst the fear from the storm, the struggle of power being out and assessing damage, Pinky escaped from her foster home. 💔

She’s still in the very early stages of rescue and TLCR hadn’t had a chance to microchip her yet.

If you’re in Houston or know anyone in Houston can you please share their post? Pinky is likely to be very scared and it’s recommended anyone who see’s her takes a picture and then calls the folks over at TLCR so they can coordinate her re-rescue. She has, so far, run from
anyone who has tried to capture her.

They’re really worried about Pinky. TLCR have been lovely to us, one of their fosters has driven on our transport team since our very first rescue transport. Thank you for helping 💗🐾🐶

HELP US FIND PINKY!!

Houston, TX 77043
Last seen near Houston Christian High School
Sam Houston Tollroad (Beltway 8) and Kempwood

The storm that hit the Houston area last week knocked a fence board loose and Pinky slipped through it. Pinky is new to the rescue and the Houston area. She is skittish and afraid. We've had a few sightings but she runs from anyone that approaches her. Please do not attempt to catch her! Call or text 832-452-4630. We have volunteers in the area looking for her.

We are absolutely heartbroken! Please help us find Pinky.

Steps we have taken to find Pinky:
- posted 300+ flyers throughout surrounding neighborhoods and businesses and are doing more
- posted on NextDoor, Facebook, Instagram, PetcoLove and Ring
- paid placement on Pawboost, LostMyDoggie, and Pet Radar
- called/emailed/visited local vet offices
- called/emailed local shelters
- called/emailed large rescues in the area

We have been driving around the neighborhood streets and up and down the beltway. We're stopping and talking to literally anyone we come across. The power outages and storm debris are complicating our search efforts.

If you're local and able to help, please call or text 832-452-4630.
