7-2-13 Avery - Bait Dog UPDATE***AN ANONYMOUS DONOR PAID THE ENTIRE BILL
Meet Avery, a 3-month-old pitbull mix puppy. Abandoned in a high kill shelter and branded as a stray, we are unsure if her brutal injuries resulted from a life as a bait dog or terrible beatings. Injuries found this far are: Femur (hip) fracture (needs FHO: femoral head osectomy) conidial (shoulder) fracture (next step TBD) Patella (knee) fracture (likely will need a plate) All digits fractured/shattered (wrapped/set) Head wounds (clean, flushed). We need your help. We need donations. Avery’s pledgie’s goal is to the estimated cost to fund her routine vetting and necessary surgery. As you can imagine, a specialist will have to join the care team for several of her medical problems.

7-4-13 Kuperas - Emaciated Dog with badly infected head woundKuperus was found tied to a tree with this large wound in her head. She was taken in by Philadelphia ACCT who contacted Adopt a Boxer Rescue to give her the lifesaving care she needs. She is currently at the Vet Hospital at the University of Pennsylvania being evaluated by surgeons. The wound goes clear down to the skull which is exposed in several places. Because she is also emaciated, surgery becomes a bit more risky. Additional test will be done to decide when she will have surgery. We'll keep you updated.

7-6-13 Shadow - puppy hit by carA 6 week old puppy with a fractured pelvis and femur. How does this happen! We are not aware of the cause of this horrible injury. We just know that this little guy needs surgery to give him a chance of living a life without pain. He needs to be able to walk! Please give us any help you can so that we can move forward with the procedure. Shadow cannot take a lot of the regular medications used to ease pain in older dogs. They are not appropriate for such a young puppy. Shadow tries to move, then yelps with pain. Every tiny donation will help us reach our goal to get Shadow mended and into true playful puppy mode!

7-6-13 Copper - Very sick kittySweet COOPER (aka Super Duper Cooper) is an 8 year old orange tabby that SCA saved from the high kill OC shelter. They said he was "exposed" to mange and were going to kill him. He has been happy in a foster home but recently became very ill. Wouldn't you after being dumped by your family to die at the shelter? COOPER was failed by his family, failed by the shelter and he WON'T be failed by SCA and their supporters.
He has a polyp in his throat and stopped eating. He is being treated for fatty liver (when cats don't eat it's very bad) and was hanging on to life. He is on the mend but needs a lot more treatment. He will also need that polyp removed.
Can you please spare some change for COOPER? He will be forever grateful.............
Please donate to Cooper's medical expenses here:

7-7-13 Ayana and Naja - 2 dogs with heart problemsAyana (left) is a young pit bull mix rescued from a shelter just before being euthanized. She's living in foster care and is also being treated for non-contagious mange which causes hair loss. At a recent check up, it was discovered that Ayana has an enlarged heart and murmur. Her condition is most likely either pulmonic stenosis which if found to be severe enough by the cardiologist will require surgery or aortic stenosis which would significantly shorten her lifespan.
Naja (right) is a young Cane Corso who came to us after being abandoned in a back yard with her three puppies. She was a great mom to her boys who have all since been adopted. When we took her in to be spayed, she was diagnosed with a grade 3 heart murmur and our vet would not do the surgery because of it. Naja will need to go to a cardiologist for an echo to determine the extent of the murmur and what kind of anesthesia will be safe for her. Each dog's necessary consult and echo will cost about $500. Please consider making a donation towards Ayana and Naja to help us get them the needed medical care so they can ultimately be adopted. Every amount helps and is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your support!

7-10-13 Sona - Cat injured and tossed outside (CANADA)We finally got innocent Sona today... We rushed her the hour drive to the clinic where she is now receiving medical help. She is a very gentle sweet girl. Everyone who met Sona today believes she was once someone's pet. Because she is so welled behaved and likes to be cuddled, tossed out by her family to try and survive on her own. This is what we know about Sona's condition so far. (We will know more tomorrow after more tests and x-rays are done Her Dr. feels it's best not to put her through to much today) Blood work was done and her blood cell count looks good, Kidneys look good and most everything else looked good except for showing that she has an infection which didn't surprise anyone..No fever, her leg may have to be taken of up to the elbow, One eye is gone and her eye socket will need to be cleaned out and stitched closed,, They are worried about the large lump below her eye (hoping it is not a tumor) BUT WE SHOULD KNOW MORE TOMORROW AFTER THE X-RAYS AND OTHER TESTS ARE DONE. https://www.facebook.com/groups/481412605274931/?fref=ts

7-13-13 Payne - Very sick senior catPLEASE HELP Payne, a senior declawed Kitty arrived from a shelter to us not along ago. Now this Boy desperately needs your help. He came with a severe upper respiratory infection which led to ulceration on both eyes and hepatic lipidosis. Payne who has a feeding tube now, will have surgery on both eyes. There is a good chance that he might loose his sight and or even require removal of his eyes.
UPDATES! He already had the surgery on his eyes and requires eye drops every hour. Our vet bill is very large.

7-18-13 Nikki - diaphragmatic herniaMama Nikki was pulled from ACCT with her kitten Monday night. Shortly after being pulled foster mom noticed mom had labored breathing. The foster took her to the vet who said she needed to go to an emergency vet and recommended Cares in Langhorne,PA. It was determined by Cares that she would need emergency surgery to correct a diaphragmatic hernia.The following day the rescue contacted Cares to determine if they could get a discount as a rescue since the estimate was $7300.00. Cares declined to give a discount because the surgery had already been completed even though Nikki must stay several more days to recooperate. Please help the rescue raise some funds for her bill.Any amount helps. http://www.youcaring.com/medical-fundraiser/medical-for-nicki/70404

7-19-13 Lazarus - Stray kittenWe never expect these kinds of emergencies, but we could not turn a blind eye to Lazarus when our volunteer found him dodging cars in middle of the road. Upon first exam, the greatest concern were the deep wounds covered in maggots and a possible infection. Those are all cleaned up now, but pneumonia is our greatest concern now. Please help us continue our care for Lazarus by contributing to vet bills totaling over $1200.

7-22-13 Honey Bear - Bladder StonesPlease pray and donate for Honey Bear. She couldn't urinate this morning and was rushed to the emergency vet. Turns out she has 5 huge bladder stones and is in critical condition. She needs emergency surgery, but the estimate at GVS is $3-5k. Her tiny size presents complications, particularly that they are having a tough time finding a catheter small enough for her. We need prayers for the vets that they find solutions and use their gifts to heal Honey Bear. She's been through enough pain in her time here. Please pray for swift healing and that her surgery is successful. She's just learning about the kind of life she should have and she's touched so many of us. She needs to get through this so we can continue to love her.
