Moon

Moon: The sister of Madeleine,  was adopted by her amazing foster family within the first week of fostering her. She is such a doll and won over their hearts pretty fast, and even their cats heart who was not to pleased with her at first. Her and her sister were borne in the shed of a mans house by a stray cat, they lived there for 5 weeks with out any human contact. Because they had no human contact, they were feral kittens. They were facing being kicked out of the shed, and becoming just another cat in the stray cat population. To avoid this, and avoid the hundreds of babies they would have produced, we decided to take them on. To catch them, live traps were set and constantly checked. Moon was the first one to be caught, although having no human contact she actually tolerated being handled very well. She was tiny, and riddled with fleas. She was then placed in her foster family where within days she came out of her shell. She became a loving affectionate, playful, little kitten and continues to grow and thrive in her now forever home. 

Charlotte

Charlotte was rescued September 21st and adopted October 3rd. She was a victim of divorce (not only kids are affected by divorce!). No one wanted to keep her after the split so they decided to euthanize her. We rescued her from being euthanized. Although being an older dog (7 years old), she still has a ton of life and love left in her to share. She unfortunately has a partially torn ligament which she had lived with for a year. Her new owner still adopted her despite her older age and sore leg and on top of it is looking into correcting her condition. She is a such a lovely and lucky girl, and thankfully found an amazing new home to ride out her golden years in. 

Archie

Archie was going to be euthanized because the elderly couple that decided to buy a puppy realized they could not keep up with his energy. They resented Archie for doing what any normal pup does, just being happy and playful. They even blamed him for their fall in health and said he was the root of all their health problems. Finally after a 6 months of having him they thought the only option, was to euthanize him. We stepped in and saved this poor guy. He is now a very happy member of an active family and enjoys spending the weekends at the country house and going to the sons baseball games. 

Kingston

Kingston was abandoned in a neighbor hood and brought into us. He was un-netered and extremely underweight. We helped him gain weight, got him neutered. He also had some bad teeth that needed to be removed, so we gave him a dental and cleaned up his beautiful smile. He was such a good little god and we are happy to see him move on into an amazing new home with a new friend. He is now being spoiled with love and attention. 

Piglet

Piglet: Rescued July 7th and adopted August 5th. Piglet is a one year old female pug, was given up to me on July 7^th 2009 because of her shedding. She came to me petrified and overweight. The first few days I had her, she would not move, and just hid under my couch, or in my pile of clothes. She weighed a whooping 22.9lbs, I was able to get 4lbs off her in one month of my care. With Purina Over Weight Management and a lot of exercise. She bloomed into one of the sweetest dogs I have ever come across. Like any pug, she loves to play, and everything in life to her is a game. Her spirits always high, she can make you smile on any day with just her goofy personality. She loves to shower you head to toe in kisses, until you can no longer stand it. Everyone who met her instantly fell in love with her. Fostering her was a pleasure; she brought a lot of joy into my life while having her around. I loved her like my own, and will definitely miss having her around. But I know she has been placed in an amazing home. She will be unconditionally loved for the rest of her life and have all the attention she deserves (and demands for!). I am very happy to see her go into her new home, and I am excited for her, as this is the beginning of a long, amazing life with them. 

Pickle Adopted!

Pickle was rescued from the outdoors August 30th and Adopted November 15th. He was rescued after being borne to a stray mother. He is one of 15 stray kittens from the population we are trying to place. This little man is a looker! With his mother being Siamese, he inherited her eyes. He has beautiful blue-green eyes that are accented but his gorgeous coat. He was from an older litter of kittens from this population, so we had a harder time gaining his trust. He has now found that special home to give him the extra patience and TLC he needs.

Naya - Leighs

Naya: She was going to be put down summer 2008, at 7 months because she had diarrhea. She was tested for Parvo Virus, she was thankfully negative. She was a beast of a dog, 80lbs and hip height. But she was such a sweet heart, she is the definition of a gentle giant, really one of the sweetest most submissive dogs we have ever met. Caroline knew right away her personality would work great with Leigh’s dog and her rabbit, she had tried out other dogs that did not work out. The next day Leigh (our exotic girl) came to see her, and she got along great with her picky (when it comes to friends) akitamix.  Leigh took her home, and she has never had another episode of diarrhea again. We have since found out that she is a huge hoover and will eat anything in sight. She has even eaten gloves leigh use to dye her hair with out the bathroom sink. Most recently, an ant trap. Which explains why she was probably sick a lot with the other owner. She continues to live hapily in her new home. 

Ringo - Carolines

Ringo: This little long hair chihuahua was going to be put down at a year and a half. He was devocalized three weeks prior and then became snappy with the other dog in the house. The previous owner became afraid that he would snap at the new puppy. We figured I would take him home and give him to an elderly lady who has no animals or children at home, he would be her baby. This little guy really won over his foster (Caroline - Founder) though, and they ended up keeping him. He lives Caroline, and her sisters and her dog Jazz, they are absolutely in love and inseparable. The only times he has ever seen him aggressive to another dog is when a German Shepard was playing to rough with Jazz at the dog park and she yelped. He then he chased the German Sheppard across the park nipping at his ankles. He actually probably got snappy with her other dog because he was protective of the new puppy. He has since proven himself and his gentle nature many times, and even under went a live dental (minor, no sever periodontal disease or extractions), a procedure that every dog goes under anesthesia for because otherwise it is practically impossible. He was a perfect little addition to our family's pack, and too much of a diamond to give up. 

Maggie

Maggie was rescued September 21st and Adopted September 28th. She is the sad result of puppy mills. She was given away by the pet store because they could not sell her due to a congenitalal knee condition, luxated patellas. This condition is very common in Pomeranians and is a result of bad breeding. However her kneed condition is not extremely sever but it is considerate. She has managed to live normally with her condition but is unable to go up stairs. To correct the condition she will require an expensive surgery only specialized orthopedics surgeons can perform. Thankfully we found someone who was wiling to over look this and will be getting the surgery done for in with he help of the rescue. 

Exotic Adoptions 2009

Nemo was rescued September 20th and adopted September 25th 2009. He was rescued from a pet store in Lachine that is closing down and needed somewhere for their animals to go. Nemo was bottle feed and has just recently been weaned. He is so young that he doesn't even have all of his fur yet. He is such a little sweet heart and gives great little kisses. He is going to make and amazing affectionate companion. 

Betty was rescued with Nemo from a pet store that was closing down and needed somewhere for all the  animals to go. Betty was originally bonded with another little female but unfortunately that female was  exposed to rat poisen in the pet store and died. Betty has now been adopted and is living in 'rat heaven' enjoying free run of the living room and home cooked meals.

Lilly Adopted

Lilly was rescued August 21st and Adopted October 15th. Lilly was found abandoned and sleeping in a pile of dirt on the side of a street. She was brought to us covered in dirt, and completely peppered in cuts and scabs from head to toe, not to mention also very skinny. She has not let her previous life affect her however! She is one big baby, and just loves attention. She loves to purr and get rubbed down head to toe. She is very healthy and has been seen by a veterinarian who thinks she is around 2 years old. Lilly is now looking for a place she can finally call home.
