I am an animal rescuer.
I will save lives. I will lose lives.
I will make wise decisions.I will make mistakes.
I will be surrounded by people who understand what I do and how I feel.
I will be criticized by those who do not understand.
I will rejoice when each homeless huggable finds a new forever family.
I will suffer through days when I cannot get those lost out of my mind.
I am an animal rescuer.

Sweet Sonny







SWEET SONNY IS 8 YEARS OLD, AND DECLAWED.  HE HAS BEEN SICK.  HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME, OR INFLAMED BOWELS.  SONNY WENT THROUGH ALL KINDS OF TESTS.  HE WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO BE TREATED WITH MEDICATION, VITAMIN SHOTS, AND PRESCRIPTION FOOD FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.  THEREFORE, HE MAY NEVER BE ADOPTED.

SONNY LOST DOWN TO UNDER SIX POUNDS, AND WE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO LOSE HIM, OR WOULD HAVE TO PUT HIM DOWN, UNTIL WE STARTED FEEDING HIM FOOD THAT IS HYPOALLERGENIC.  IT IS BY PRESCRIPTION ONLY, AND IS $65.71 FOR AN 8 POUND BAG.  THE CANNED FOOD, THAT IS THE SAME, IS $2.75 A CAN. WE PUT HIS MEDICINE IN HIS WET FOOD.  

SONNY HAS GAINED UP TO 8.8 LBS. AND IS DOING WELL WITH HIS TREATMENTS.

SINCE WE FEED, AND CARE FOR, ABOUT 50 CATS EACH MONTH, IT IS GETTING TO THE POINT OF HAVING TO ASK FOR SPONSORS TO CARE FOR HIM. WE ARE PRIVATE RESCUERS, AND USE OUR OWN FUNDS, OR DONATIONS FROM FRIENDS.

WE DON'T BELIEVE IN ENDING THE LIFE OF ONE OF OUR FUR BABIES, UNLESS THEY ARE SUFFERING, WITH NO HOPE OF RECOVERY. AND SURELY NOT BECAUSE WE CAN'T AFFORD THEIR CARE. 

IS THERE ANY KIND SOUL OUT THERE, THAT WOULD LIKE TO ADOPT SWEET SONNY, AND BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO GIVE HIM PROPER CARE? OR CAN ANYONE HELP US BY SPONSORING OR DONATING TO HIS CARE?

IF YOU CAN SPONSOR OR JUST GIVE A ONE TIME DONATION  YOU CAN GO TO simply go to www.paypal.com, click on the "send money" tab on the home page and enter gafelinefriend@gmail.com  In the subject line, indicate this is for Sonny  IMPORTANT: Be sure to designate the payment as a "gift" or PayPal will take part of it.  Thank you!!!

KITTY PURRS AND HEAD BONKS,

  1. It's ridiculous that a prescription food should cost that much. I'm sure at least 50% of that cost is going into the vets pockets. When my dog was prescribed a prescription food the pet store I go to looked up the ingredients in the prescription food on their computer, and found an over-the-counter dog food with the same ingredients minus the saw dust. That's right! One of the ingredients in the Science Diet Prescription dog food was saw dust.
