ANOTHER HAPPY ENDING!
DONATIONS NEEDED FOR LUCIA'S VET COSTS! Meet sweet Lucia, an eight-month-old pup who's had a rough start in life beginning with her mother (Juliet) being abandoned just days before giving birth to her pups. Fortunately, a HOPE member found the very pregnant mother and took her in. When Lucia was about six-weeks-old, her mother accidentally stepped on her eye, causing irreparable damage--the eye had to be surgically removed. Since then, Lucia has battled with numerous infections to the area where her eye once was. She has had to wear a drain (like the one in the photos) on several occasions while having to take strong antibiotics to fight infection. This darling pup has been a trooper through it all, and her medical problems have not slowed her down one bit. She is a playful pup with the sweetest personality (and very smart to boot!). Check out the Youtube video of Lucia at play. It is not certain if another surgery will be necessary at this time, but if infection continues to be a problem, surgery will be likely. If you would like to contribute to Lucia’s mounting vet costs, please specify donations to "Lucia’s fund." This wonderful baby is available for adoption. For more information concerning Lucia, please send an email to meacat at mobiletel dot com. Thank you for your generosity.

Thank you for your unending support! ATTENTION CARTRIDGE COLLECTORS! We need your help! HOPE
for Animals is using
ecyclegroup.com to recycle printer cartridges. Here you can find a
list of toner cartridges we can use to help fund our organization.
Also, any cartridge that reads "replacement" or "compatible" has already
been refilled, and we cannot use these. Please note that we can
also use old cell phones. Please
call Vicki at 985-447-3821 if you have any questions. Thank you
for your continuing support of this program. NOTICE!
Don't be a "throw-away" pet owner! Consider the sacrifices before adopting! "Free to good home" too often means a death sentence.
