HART often rescues dogs or cats that are in desperate need of medical care.
Many of the dogs and cats will need to be housed for several weeks before they
can appear on the web pages and be adopted. The veterinary care is
expensive and we must rely on your donations to cover the costs.
A special donation or
sponsorship to help with some of these costs would mean a lot to one of
these "special" guys - and to HART. Or maybe you can help in another way.
Do you have some free time? Would you be willing to
foster a special dog or cat and gain the satisfaction of nursing him/her
back to health? Or maybe you are available to
transport them to and from vet visits.
These are all wonderful animals
looking for a little extra help.
Oliver Twist

Oliver Twist, one of HART's diabetic cats, recently experienced a life-threatening diabetic crisis called ketoacidosis which resulted in high blood glucose levels and dehydration from his body trying to rid itself of the excessive glucose through the kidneys. Oliver has been hospitalized at HOPE since Sunday, August 9th, for intensive care to carefully lower his blood glucose levels and re-stabilize his electrolytes.
It is estimated that HART’s medical expenses for this incident will be over $7000. Oliver required nearly around-the-clock care to receive short-term acting insulin every four hours and fluids to combat the dehydration.
HART's vet bills are already huge and we need your help now more than ever. Please consider sponsoring Oliver to help defray his medical expenses!

Misty

Misty is a special kitty. She was rescued from a rural kill shelter just in the nick of time but unfortunately she is Feline Leukemia positive. Misty is a gorgeous short-haired silver tabby girl who loves to play as well as to snuggle and cuddle with her humans. She is young and full of energy. Even though she has tested positive for this disease it is possible that she will live a long and healthy life. At HART we believe every cat deserves a loving home, even those who test positive for Feline Leukemia. Many cats can live normal, healthy lives despite testing positive for FeLV, although in some cases it does shorten the cat's life. Feline leukemia (FeLV) is transmissible to other cats, but not to people or other types of pets. For more information about feline leukemia, please visit this Feline Leukemia link.Could you be the angel who watches over this precious little girl? Pictures of Misty!

I am a special little lady who needs a loving home. I will be a good companion to you. I like to be near my people, lying next to you or in your lap. I still enjoy playtime, too. The laser pointer makes me very happy! How sad that I've recently become diabetic and am losing my family, too. I hope I will find a caring person who will give me the love and care I need.
