🐾 Update on Cecilia “CeCe”! 🐾
Cecilia, or “CeCe” as we’ve been affectionately calling her, is the malnourished kitty who was found blind and completely helpless about a week ago.
She had a health assessment yesterday, and the vet determined that although she has gained a little weight, this tiny girl is still only about half the weight she should be at 8 weeks old. Those who have held her say she feels smaller than the weight of an orange in your hand.
The vet said her ruptured eyes will need to be removed only after she’s gained enough weight to withstand anesthesia and surgery, so she is scheduled for a medical follow up in four weeks.
At that time, the veterinary eye care specialist will also reassess her healing, and hopefully, be able to plan a date for eye removal.
In the meantime, CeCe will be going to the perfect Arrow Fund foster home with someone who not only understands her healthcare needs, but will also envelop her with love and care. Her eyes will continue to be cleaned of debris and drainage, and CeCe will continue to receive multiple medications, given or applied at regular intervals throughout the day.
This little one doesn’t let blindness stop her from being completely adorable, though! CeCe is interested in playing with kitty toys, snuggling and purring close to her human friends, curling up under a ray of warm sunshine filtered through a window, and in exploring the world around her.
If you meet this adventurous, sweet, and snuggly kitten, please don’t tell her that she’s actually blind—we’re not sure she knows!
This baby’s upcoming surgery and meds will be costly. Please help if you can by clicking the donate button or link below, by mail to PO Box 1127, Prospect, KY 40059, or by Venmo: @thearrowfund.

We just wanted to share a cute video of Daphne and Scooby playing this morning. Have a great day everyone
LOOK AT FROSTY GO ! This update is sure to put a smile on your face!
Frosty joined The Arrow Fund family in November of 2022. He had multiple injuries from suspected abuse. He was found lying in a crate on a porch, unable to move, with severe urine scalding, and contusions on his belly that were consistent with being kicked hard.
Upon examination, it was discovered that he had a compresed disc in his spine. It was unknown if he would ever have function in his back legs. However, with the amazing support of his Arrow Fund family and now his awesome adopters, Frosty continues to improve and impress medical staff.
His adopters stated, "He has been with us a year now and his progress is amazing! He has been on several trips and on several sleep overs. He is a huge fan of other small, white dogs. He now accepts his brother, who happens to be a cat. I now will see them sleeping side-by-side in his bed. He is one of the most spoiled dogs there is, and is constantly wearing nice clothes (note: he is gaining quite a wardrobe, but it is to help his diaper not to slide off! lol). He still loves attention and petting, and will always remind you that you stopped."

MANI UPDATE! This little man is doing great! Now that his sutures have been removed from the seven hours of surgery he endured to put him back together again, he is undergoing water treadmill therapy to build up those muscles in his back legs and pelvis. His physical therapy team love him and say he is a resilient little fellow who is more than determined to regain his mobility and strength. Mani has three more weeks of total cage rest (other than his physical therapy) and is more than ready to get out and about! Thank you to all of our supporters who have enabled us to get him the surgery and rehab that he desperately needed to survive! #animaladvocate #rescuedogs #adoption #adopt #foster #animaladvocates #instadog #rescueismyfavoritebreed #adoptdontshop #dogsoflouisville #rescuedog #dogsofinstagram #animalrescue
Mani
MANI UPDATE! This 10lb little man is recovering well with the help of his physical therapist who is working on strengthening his muscles around the fractures in his legs and pelvis as well as re-establishing and maintaining his range of motion. Mani is enjoying his foster home and fur brothers and sisters and will be neutered and available for adoption soon! If you are interested in adding Mani to your home, please go to our website and complete an adoption application. https://thearrowfund.org/our-animals/adoption-application/

Luna is such a smart good girl. She is super motivated and has come such a long way. And she is available for adoption!!
This sweet girl would be the perfect family member. She is eager to learn and very treat motivated. She is very curious!
Luna is still young, so she is still learning some manners. But she has mastered sit, paw and down. She is perfect in her crate, even going there when she just wants to lay down!
If you are interested in adopting Luna, please fill out an application on our website at https://thearrowfund.org/our-animals/adoption-application/
And always, please share so she can find the perfect home.
Val update
UPDATE ON VAL! This sweet boy is progressing well due to the dedication of his foster and veterinary team. Although it has been confirmed that Val’s vision is seriously impaired, the constant circling to the left has improved significantly, he is eating well and gaining weight. Please keep sending positive thoughts and prayers to Val as he continues on the road to recovery.
