7/2020 Lola is another senior blind, sick kitty who truly needed a village to save her life. A huge shout out of thanks to Lory Nelson Brunner from the CatNetwork Meow Mobile and Miami CatNetwork Charlene Grall and Karen Rundquist. And of course Annis and Davica, for getting this baby out of animal control, fostering her and then Davica for hoping on an airplane to bring her to us. Thank you Jill for meeting Davica at RDU and driving her 2 hours to us. A whole lot of people involved to get her out of a high kill shelter. Lola is 10+ years old, blind and has serious heart disease and anemia. She had been flea infested and we are sure is also hemobart positive (she is being treated for it while we wait on the blood test to confirm it.) Her chest is full of fluid, and there is a mass We don’t know if that is cancer or congestive heart failure. We probably CHF because lasix seems to be helping her breath more comfortably. We recognize that we are hospice for her. We will try to give her the best life we can for the time she has with us. With all that going on, she is a very sweet loving little girl. Thank you so much to everyone involved to help save this little girl and thank you so much , our wonderful supporters for making it possible for us to save her! Sponsored by Tina - Thank you!

Amazing how much better she looks after a couple of baths. She was filthy with dirt and flea dirt.

9/2/2020 Lola came to us 6 weeks ago as a senior blind kitty from Miami.    She had severe heart disease, fluid in her chest, a mass in her chest,  kidney disease, and severe anemia from fleas.  It took us 3 baths to get all the flea dirt off of her.  We found a beautiful torti under all the filth.  I don't know how she came to be homeless on the street of Miami but I will always be grateful to Davica, Jill, and the others that were involved in rescuing her.  She is such a loving cat, I know someone at some point loved her very much, I wish she could have told us her story. We knew after her first visit to the vet that we were hospice for her.  The vet told me she really didn't think she would last a week.  She proved us so wrong.  She had a great appetite and showed us that she really wanted to live.  Later blood work showed that we had reversed the anemia but we could not improve the kidney or heart disease. Tuesday afternoon she was sleeping a lot,  not really active.  We knew that her time was coming to a close.  Wednesday she was not eating, not active,  She would pee in her bed and just lay in it.  She did enjoy her last bath, she just melted into it and enjoyed her spa day.  We knew the day had come.  The staff spent extra time loving on her and late in the afternoon she and I went to the vet to say goodbye. She spent her last time in my arms being loved on as she crossed over the rainbow bridge.  She was very very sweet, loving and trusting and even though her stay with us was short we were so blessed to have known her.  I am glad that her final weeks of life she got to know what it was to be loved and cared for because we did love her very much.
