0

Earlier on Tuesday a staff member of the Cass County Humane Society got a phone call and to not disturb anyone inside he deiced to attend it outside. He exited the main building and walked to the side of the building a little further away. It was then when his eyes caught the sight of not one but actually 3 taped up boxes on the ground.

The Executive Director at the Cass County Humane Society named Amanda Lane said, “At first the staff member was confused so he came back in and asked if anyone knew about the boxes. Hearing about the boxes, our shelter manager went outside himself to check the boxes.”

Everyone was thinking that as the shelter was open, nobody had any treason to leave any animal abandoned inside these boxes. However, when the manager opened the boxes, to his immense dismay, there were 6 pairs of eyes staring back at him, so he quickly tore opened rest of the boxes as well.

The first of the 3 boxes had inside 6 kittens which were 2 weeks old and were really scared and overheated. As for the 2nd box, it had the mother. As for the 3rd box, it had inside an adult cat as well as another kitten which was slightly older. They all had one thing in common; they were all confused and really scared. These boxes had been in the 80 degrees of heat outside for nearly half an hour. No one dared to imagine what would have had happened to them if nobody found them.

Lane said, “Although there were hole punctured in the boxes, no air was getting inside. We rushed all 3 boxes inside and these poor souls were looking at us with their sacred eyes.”

The staff reunited the tiny kittens with their mother who was obviously thrilled to see them. Then they placed the older cat with the older kitten and seeing them proved that they were related.

All of these nine cats were severely dehydrated and overheated. Once the staff gave them food, water and cool air, they were doing just fine. One o the 6 kittens had a deformity on its rib cage and is currently under observation of a vet. Apart from this kitten, everyone other cat is doing just great.

Lane said, “The mother cat and her kittens will be put up for adoption in the coming 4 to 6 weeks while the adult cat and her kitten will be up for adoption as soon as next week.”

Lost Family Dog Was Living On Streets As A Stray Finally Found By His Family

2 months ago a sweet family pup named Leo went missing from his loving home in Turkey. Following his absence, his family was devastated and spent no effort in searching for him but all of it was to no avail.

However, all of that changed one day.

Earlier last week, Sertaç Araç, the son of Leo’s owner was traveling to a neighboring town which was 60 miles away from their house for some work when his eyes caught a look of something very familiar to him. This was a dog that had a striking resemblance to the missing dog of his parents.

This dog, which seemed to be a stray at first, was sitting in front of a café and looked to be completely scared and confused about the life on streets.

Sertaç Araç said, “I immediately took a picture and sent it to my father and mother back home as I was still in doubt.”

Seeing the picture, Sertaç Araç’s parents decided to come to the place and look for themselves the seemingly stray dog if it was there dog or not.

Below is the video when the parents of Sertaç Araç came to the area where the dog was and the rest of the scene can clear doubts of the dog’s ownership to anyone much less the real owners.

Seeing his family, Leo instantly recognized them and was immensely happy to see his family after being missing for several months.

Araç said, “When he saw us, he was overjoyed and we were happy as well.”

The lost dog was finally heading back to his home.

Leo is once more at his loving home surrounded by his loving family.

The return of Leo is not only a happy one but also a hopeful one. After Leo went missing, two other dogs in the same community went missing as well.  This led to suspicion of a dognapper but with Leo being found back, there is hope that the other two will also be found one day.

A Cyclist Finds A Stray Cat That Transformed His whole Life

Meet Niccolò Bonifazio who is a professional cyclist living in Italy.

Niccolò Bonifazio has had many achievements to his name when it came to his profession but the thing that completely transformed his whole life is his act of kindness.

Back in May, Niccolò Bonifazio was on a 20 kilometers long training ride alongside his few friends when he heard something unexpected. Somewhere along the road where there were no houses or people, Niccolò Bonifazio heard tiny cries of something for help.

Niccolò Bonifazio said, “I heard the meowing sounds from a distance. It was a disturbing noise so I got curious and went to look for the source of the sound in the woods.”

It was there, where Niccolò Bonifazio found a stray little kitten in a garbage bag who was barely clinging to his life. The kitten had apparently been dumped by someone there to die. Luckily for the kitten, he had been found by Niccolò Bonifazio.

Niccolò Bonifazio said, “The kitten was not doing so well and time was of the essence for him.”

Holding the tiny kitten in one hand, Niccolò Bonifazio rode his cycle for nearly one hour straight to get him to safety. As it can be seen in the video below, Niccolò Bonifazio fell in love with the kitten during the way back.

The kitten was finally saved from the edge of the death but the story did not stop there.

Niccolò Bonifazio said, “We took him to the vet where he responded well to the treatment. There, I decided to take him home with me.”

Since then, the little kitten has been showered by the love of Niccolò Bonifazio and his partner in their home.

Niccolò Bonifazio said, “He is very cute and is really full of energy. We have named him Bisous which translates “Kiss” in French.”

Cat With EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) Finds A Forever Home, And Is Now Living A Happy Life

A woman named Georgina Prince and her fiancée named Christopher Lardner adopted their first pet which was a 16 years old cat named Herbie. The cat was near the end of his life and soon left them after being adopted. Even having adopted Herbie for a few months, the couple was devastated by Herbie’s passing and to fill up the loss of Herbie, they decided to adopt an unexpected pet.

Georgina said, “After Herbie passed away, I started to think about all the animals that had only a few months to live but had to spend their remaining life in a kennel of a shelter. We deiced to adopt a cat that might have a difficult time getting adopted.”

The couple was browsing the internet when they came upon the duo of Toby and Quinton. Quinton was a 7 years old cat which had no teeth while the 6 years old Toby had short hairs and unexpectedly loose skin.

Both of them were advertised together for adoption and the couple decided to adopt both of them.

Georgina found out that Toby suffers from a rare condition named EDS (Ehlers-Danlos syndrome) or also known as FCA (feline cutaneous asthenia). This is a congenital disease which results in cats to have stretchy and fragile skin caused by lack of collagen.

The couple went to adopt them at the RSPCA and saw both of them to be really terrified while huddling alongside each other. Toby kept on hiding behind Quinton.

While Georgina was able to pet Quinton, she could not get to Toby. There, both of them adopted Quinton and Toby and took them to their home.

It took a little time for both cats to feel comfortable at their new home.

Georgina said, “They were really scared and lived under the bed for a few weeks. Seeing our love they slowly opened up to us. Now both of them own our place.”

Still, Toby’s rare condition makes him prone to injuries even if he is grooming or playing and seems to be oblivious of his condition.

Georgina says, “We are lucky that Toby’s condition is not severe and we can easily manage it. We cut his nails or regular basis to avoid him scratching his skin. He often seeks Quinton to help clean him. Quinton often licks his face and head and especially the regions where there are cuts.”

Aside from his condition, Toby is like any other cat. He loves to watch birds, play with the balls and snuggle with his owners.

Kids Rescue A Stray Kitten In Casts As It Was Abandoned On The Streets

0

Earlier last month, a group of kids was playing outside a housing complex located in Phoenix, Arizona when they came across a stray little kitten. Seeing the kitten, the kids realized that something was wrong with it.

The director of the “Arizona Shih Tzu and Small Breed Rescue” named Kathy Hamel said, “I am really sure that these kids had no idea what they saw when they took the cat to their home and asked their parents about it.”

Few young kids took the kitten inside their apartment and their parents were shocked as well as confused to see this kitten whose hind legs were covered with 2 makeshift casts. As for why someone would do such a thing, no one could think of a reason. Thinking that kitten had broken legs and had cast, the parents of kids called Hamel who is well known for animal rescues.

Hamel said, “Seeing the kitten I instantly thought that she needed a vet. When the kitten was brought to me, it came with a little girl of 4 years old who was also one of her finders. The little girl had named the kitten ‘Cupcake’ and I told her that I really love the name and would keep it.”

After getting Cupcake, Hamel took her to the vet as besides these casts, Cupcake was severely dehydrated as well as malnourished. Cupcake would have not survived another day if she had not been found by those kids.

It took the vet nearly an hour to completely remove the casts. One was easy to remove while the other was so hard that the vet had to soak it in water to loosen it. As it turned out, Cupcake had no broken legs.

They way the casts were wrapped around her legs; it was clearly the work of an adult human being. It left everyone wondering as to why on earth any sane person would do something so cruel to a little animal.

Cupcake was estimated to be around 6 months old and weighed only .980 pounds. Apart from being malnourished, Cupcake had no other health problems.

Hamel said, “Despite going through the horrible experience, the kitten amazingly has a high spirit and loves to receive all the attention from the staff at the vet’s clinic.

Despite being still on her path to full recovery, many people have lined up to adopt Cupcake once she is fully healed.

People Find A Stray Tiny Puppy Inside A Dumpster

0

Most of us, when throwing garbage in the dumpster do not tend to look inside it. However, there is one good person who had the time to look inside a dumpster while throwing garbage and came upon on a shocking discovery. What he saw actually shook him to his very core.

Inside the dumpster was a tiny stray puppy that had been dumped by some cruel person inside the dumpster located in Kansas City. The puppy was tossed in between the garbage heaps and was looking really confused and scared at his surroundings. The puppy was clearly not belonged inside the dumpster and it was his good fortune that he had been found.

The person who found the dog lifted him out of the dumpster immediately and took him to the organization named Unleashed Pet Rescue and Adoption. The staff of the organization was not willing to believe that the poor pup had been found inside a dumpster.

On their Facebook page, the Unleashed Pet Rescue and Adoption wrote a follows, “This is not an excuse to treat a poor animal soul in such a manner as a human being. We are absolutely disgusted by the way that someone had actually treated the dog in such a manner. We are humans and we can certainly do much better than this.”

The puppy was named as Minimus by the rescue staff and they guessed the age of the puppy to be 2 months. Although the staff says that the dog was not in his best condition, he would certainly make full recovery given enough time and care.

As for the little fellow, even after going through such a horrible experience, he is in high spirits and is very happy with all the attention he is getting from the rescue staff. He loves to cuddle in his towel which is so much better than the cold he had to experience in the dumpster.

This was no excuse for any human being to simply dump a puppy into a dumpster. The staff of the rescue center would have been willing to have him if they had simply submitted it to them.

Fortunately for Minimus, he is better now and is recovering fast at his new loving foster home.

Rescued German Shepherd finally eases as he plays a game of tag with a wild deer

Ike is the name of a rescued German Shepherd dog who after his long rehabilitation can be explained by one word from his new family and that is “Goofball”. So it is also not that much of a surprise that he is now making new unexpected friends.

Despite now knowing Ike’s nature, his owner Ethan Cole was a little baffled to see a few days ago out in his backyard in Florida as to what was going on there.

His fun-loving dog was busy playing a game of tag with a wild friend.

As it happens to be Ike and his new friend, a wild deer, the same size as Ike, who was on the other side of the fence, were paying a game.

Looking at them first Ethan first thought, Ike was trying to chase the deer like he tries to hunt a squirrel down but then something amazing happened.

After Ike was done chasing the deer in one direction, he pivoted in the other and then the deer chased him down the fence as if they were taking turns to catch each other.

Below is the video of the amazing game that these tow unexpected friends come up on their own.

Cole said, “This was the first time that I have seen Ike and his new friend playing.”

After few minutes of playing the game, deer ran off into the woods.

This does not mean that Ike’s little fun and games have come to a halt. As you can see in the video, there is another little pup by the name Hobbes who is also a friend to Ike and they can resume their game any time when they feel like it.

Cole said that to his family, Dogs hold a special place. Even the name Ike was given to this rescued German Shepherd in honor of another dog which his mother had when she was a little girl.

Family Got Flipped Out After A Raccoon They Hit With Car Came Onto The Hood Of Car

16 years old Haylee Lowry happens to be an animal lover but one particular night became a nightmare for her passion

Earlier this week, after Haylee got her driving license and was driving on her family car with her parents back to their home on a dark stretch of a road, a wild raccoon suddenly came out of nowhere in front of their car. The new driver simply had no quick response or even time to avoid him.

The impact of Raccoon was first felt by Haylee’s mom named Michelle.

Michelle said, “When is asked her what has she hit, Haylee was almost drenched in tears.”

However little did they know that this raccoon was not an ordinary one.

After a few minutes, Haylee who had been heartbroken of thinking she had killed an innocent animal, her grief turned to disbelief when she found out that the animal was alive.

Like a scene from an action movie with robots and stuff, the raccoon which had been hit by the car got stuck in the grills of the car during the crash and it had struggled its way up to the top of the car’s hood, completely unscathed.

Seeing the raccoon come out like this, everyone was flipped out of their mind.

Below is the video of that incredible yet mind flipping moment that Lowry family had to go through.

Michelle said, “I was just thinking that there is no way that this is happening”.

The raccoon was clearly all OK and as soon as Haylee stopped the car on the side of the road, raccoon simply jumped off the hood and ran away like nothing ever happened.

Michelle said, “I think my daughter really learned something. Other night she said that she slowed down on her way back after she thought she saw another animal on the road.”

Teen Spots a Squirrel Frozen In Foam Insulation and Immediately Helps It

Two teenage friends were hanging around with each other in the downtown area of the St. Andrews located in New Brunswick, Canada when they suddenly saw a lot of people standing around one car. Curious by the scene, they went over there to see what was happening and found out that a squirrel was stuck underneath the said car and was in immediate need of help. As soon as the little squirrel was pulled from beneath the car, it looked nothing like that of an ordinary squirrel.

The squirrel somehow got itself covered in what was foam insulation that was used by people to fill the holes in walls and stuff. It seemed that squirrel accidentally ran through some stuff that was recently foamed with this insulation foam. After the foam dried, the squirrel was not able to move.

 

These two teenagers named Aiden hart and Jaydon Pettipas were immediately filled with compassion for the injured guy and were aware that if they did not do anything soon, he would not be able to survive for long. They ran to a closet grocery store and to an empty milk crate and placed the squirrel inside. After that, they quickly called their friends over for help.

The owner of the St. George Veterinary Clinic named Dr. Melanie Eagan said to media, “after they called for help, one of the boys’ moms also called me at the clinic.

After having the talk with Eagan, they brought the squirrel to the clinic which was 21 miles away from the spot where they found the squirrel. When they gave Eagan the squirrel, she could hardly believe her own eyes as to what they saw.

 

Eagan said, “He barely could breathe much less move. It was a miracle that he was still alive. He only was able to move his back legs a little bit.”

Eagan started the treatment immediately as she sedated the squirrel and then used rubbing alcohol and a flea comb to get the foam off of the tiny body of the squirrel.

 

Eagan said, “It took me about an hour to remove the foam and even some patches of the fur were gone with some abrasions left. In the end, he was far much better than the condition he came in.”

After going through this horrific experience, the squirrel actually went to sleep for a few hours and Eagan stayed there to watch over him for that time he was asleep.

 

After waking up and feeling well, Eagan released the squirrel back into the wild.

Fox With Stuck In A Trash Can Lid Found By High School Teachers

Last week when the teachers and other staff members of the Saracens High School located in West London reached the school ground, they found something unexpected at the school ground which was waiting for them to help it.

A young wild fox somehow had got his head stuck through a lid of a trash can and was totally stuck inside it.  He was unable to do anything to pull himself out of it and as people started to look at him, he looked incredibly confused. After finding the squirrel, someone there called RSPCA.

The animal collection officer of RSPCA named Mariam Adwan said, “He had somehow managed to put his head through the lid of a trash can but could not get it out. The poor thing was really scared out of his wits.”

Adwan hoped that she would be able to pull his head out of the lid but this did not seem to be the case.

Adwan said, “I first tried to calm him down and simply get his head the way he put I in but as it appeared to be, his cheeks were too large and in the way.”

The only way to rescue the fox was by cutting him out of the lid. Using the hacksaw, Adwan made a T shaped slit inside the lid and the fox was able to slide out of the lid.

After saving the fox, Adwan made sure to get the fox to a vet to check his condition and was happy to learn that it was alright. After the fox got a clean bill of health, he was taken back to the back of the same school where he was rescued and was released to be free in the wild once more.

Adwan said, “The school is sure that he is part of the fox family that inhabits the school ground, so I assume that he has been release really closely to his family.”

Dog Dumped While Tangled In His Leash Along With A Saddest Note

Staff members of the Villalobos Rescue Center (VRC) were heartbroken to see a sight last month. Tied to the New Orleans based rescue’s property fence was a sad pit bull dog. As the staffers tried to approach the young dog, he started to cower in fear. They could clearly see that his leg was all tangled up in his leash and it had cut off the blood circulation to his leg.

In order to free the dog from his unfortunate situation proved to be quite a problem for the staffers.

One of the rescuers, who took the video of the dog at that time, said, “The dog was tangled up and he was not letting us approach him. We tried to figure out a way to free him without getting hurt.”

Besides the dog was a plastic bag with some of his possessions but when rescuers opened the bag they saw something else inside. Inside was a handwritten note that read as follows, “I can’t keep him no more due to personal problems with my family. He has been isolated in my room his whole life as my parents didn’t want him out of the room and on top of that, the landlord didn’t want dogs here. He’s 1 year and 4 months and never had human interaction besides my family so please build his human interaction.”

The note further continued as follows, “Once you get to know him, he’s the sweetest dog you’ll know,” the note continued. “He is pet-friendly but can be nervous around people. Please take your time with [him] and give him a better home. I will always donate as much as I can for the wish list … he is up-to-date with his shots.”

The rescue center was already flooded with the dog and they had no idea how to accommodate another dog especially the one who had anxiety and fear.

They posted the video of the dog’s rescue over Facebook in hopes that someone would offer their help.

The post was seen by the brother of the dog’s previous owner who immediately came to the rescue center. VRC wrote, “He was overwhelmed with a lot of grief to see the dog. He had known the dog that was named Rocky since he was a puppy. He was no longer living with his family and had assumed that the dog was living well with his family.”

Staffers were not clear as to let him have Rocky or not but after R0cky saw the man he showered him with kisses and hugs.

Watch the touching reunion of the dog and dad down below.

Rocky’s new owner says in the video, “You are back home. You are at home.”
