Little Hearts Rescue

As much as I try to escape kitten season, it finds me 😆 About a week ago a past LHR adopter was dropping off her piggies to board with us, when she also handed me over a tiny kitten. On her way to my house, exiting the freeway, she was stopped by a man who said there was a kitten under her tire. Sure enough she go out during the red light & this little guy was under her car. We are unsure if he fell from the car or kitty was just laying in the middle of the road, regardless this baby hit the jackpot. My boarder was off on her vacation as soon as she dropped her piggies off & exact words were, “I have to leave it with you” 🤣🤣🤣 So I guess we’re doing a kitten this summer!

I don’t have any updated photos, but Mr. Bo**er is already feeling much better, flea free, eating champion, & hands down the sweetest baby we’ve ever had. So fearless, making biscuits constantly, purring machine, & obsessed with large dogs & other cats. He will make an excellent pet for someone 🤍

We are not a cat rescue, but I personally have fostered & rescued kittens my whole life through other rescues. Sometimes kittens land in my lap through friends or family, & I will not say no to helping an innocent baby. LHR IS NOT A CAT RESCUE. We will neuter him, first round of shots, & adopt out late summer, through our own personal pockets.

So many hamsters will be posted for adoption this week! Young & old, Syrians & Dwarfs, males & females 🤍

All of these cuties are looking for forever homes in the Sacramento area 📍

Keep an eye out this week when we post them individually for adoption!!! 🐾 Thank you to foster mamas Michelle Cloud and Friends & Amber for fostering!!

On another episode of: PEOPLE SUCK! 😡

We received a call yesterday for a found, neglected ferret out in the sun. He was dumped near some industrial buildings & under a freeway. Once we received photos of his condition, we had the finder run him to our exotic vet while we made our way there. Unfortunately this kiddo was suffering, had an adrenal tumor, no appetite, & after running some bloodwork we made the call with our vet to humanely euthanize him ❤️‍🩹

Yes, ferrets are illegal here in California! Don’t worry, we already had connections & ferret rescue contacts to get him transported out of state if he was in healthy conditions. With that being said, it was most likely his owners could tell he was sickly & needed medical help, or even knew he needed euthanasia, but realized they’d get in trouble taking him to the vet (bc it’s illegal to own). So they did the worse thing possible for him, by dumping him onto the streets. A true death sentence for these guys. Suffering in the 90° heat, with no survival instincts out there & predators everywhere. Shame on you as a pet parent!!!

My husband & I loved this kiddo for the time we got to spend with him. We decided to name him Harry, as he reminded us of a harry snake 🤍 Also I’m obsessed with Gary de Snake from Zootopia so it went perfectly together.

Thank you to Dr. R & the vet staff for your compassion & help with this kiddo, as we helped him pass peacefully.
