We need a hero foster for Tulane.

This sweet 30-pound pit bull mix just had major surgery Monday to repair a torn ACL and a luxating patella. She made it through like a champ — now comes the hard part: 6 full weeks of strict cage/kennel rest so her leg can heal the right way.

Tulane’s ideal medical foster home must be:
• Pet-free (no other animals at all)
• Human-only household with a calm, quiet space
• Able to support kennel rest 24/7 for 6 weeks (short leash potty breaks only)
• No shared walls, dog parks, or playdates — this is a peaceful healing sabbatical, not a social tour

The good news? Zeus’ Rescues provides all medications, vet care, supplies, and support. You provide the couch nearby and the peaceful vibes. She truly just needs quiet kennel rest and a safe, loving human presence.

Tulane is gentle, grateful, and ready to nap her way to recovery — she simply needs a space to do it without other animals around. This is temporary, high-impact fostering that changes everything for her future mobility and comfort.

If you can give this girl 6 weeks of calm and healing, we can give her the life she deserves after it. Apply at zeusrescues.org if you don't already have an approved app on file.

Let’s get Tulane resting her way to a comeback story that ends in adopted, thriving, and pain-free.
Send her all your good karma. Michelle

Say Hello to Luscia (Chi Chi) who is still in search of her perfect home!

Chi Chi is a sweet old soul with the calmest heart and the easiest personality. She’s is an 8 year-old low-maintenance queen who’s perfectly happy lounging around, going for relaxed walks, finding the comfiest nap spots, and keeping you company wherever you are.

She’s quiet, gentle, and incredibly loyal—always nearby, always watching out for her person. If you live alone and want a constant companion who also makes you feel safe, Chi Chi is your girl. She doesn’t ask for much, just a cozy spot and someone to love. She is sometimes good with other dogs, people, and cats, but can be protective of her human.

She’s fully potty trained, crate trained, knows her basic commands, and walks beautifully on a leash (no pulling here!). She’s not picky about food, toys, or beds—she’s just happy to be included. Chi Chi has a gorgeous brindle coat that barely sheds and loves being brushed and pampered.

If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing best friend who will keep you company and quietly have your back, Luscia is ready to move in. 💛🐶

Chiquita put a special wish on the Christmas wish tree while lobby hopping: to find her furever family 🐾 💕 🎅🏼

Chiquita is thought to be a Chihuahua Terrier mix estimated to be about 6 years old at just over 20 pounds with a beautiful curly tail.

This goofy banana would do best with another dog to keep showing her that the hoomans are alright, where to p*e, how comfy the sofa is, etc. She does very well pottying outside.

She’s also very happy to snooze on the sofa with a little bit of her tongue almost always hanging out. On top of the sofa is even better so she gets a better view! When it’s time for bed, she comes right upstairs and jumps on up to settle in at the foot of the bed.

She gets so excited for walks, car rides, and adventures. The moment she sees her leash she starts barking and giving you her gremlin growls turning in circles then politely sitting by the door so she can begrudgingly be touched to have her harness put on her! She does so well out in public, usually just lays calmly next to us. In the car she loves feeling the wind blowing her ears with her head out the window (leash still on because we don’t want her to get too excited and jump out, safety first!)

And she LOVES food and treats! Nothing wrong with winning over her love with food! She has come a long way from the hoarding situation she came from and who knows what before that! Maybe it’s more appropriate to say she’s come out of her banana p*el, and she is ready for her furever home!

Chiquita is up to date on shots, spayed, and heartworm negative. You can see more pictures and videos on her foster Instagram page .

Meet Easton — Our Comeback Kid Who Is *This Close* to His Perfect Forever Home!

Recently, Easton went up north to Minnesota to train with Syd, and y’all… this boy is doing better than any of us ever dared to dream. Every morning I look forward to reading his report card like it’s the next episode in a great series. And each day, he blows us away again.

Easton arrived to us back in 2023 as a 4-month-old stray pup — all big ears, one blue eye, and pure adorable chaos. He was adopted quickly, but came back seven months later as an under socialized teenage tornado who had a LOT of feelings about strangers. Even though he wouldn’t hurt a fly, if he saw a new person from a block away, he’d throw his whole body into barking as if the world needed to know he existed.

And because of that, people didn’t get to see the real Easton: the sweet, goofy softy you meet once he realizes you’re safe.

Easton was given the chance to enter Syd’s board-and-train program in Minnesota… and the transformation has been incredible. Here’s what Syd had to say about him:

"Easton has gained so much confidence. He can now walk through Home Depot and only whine as people pass by and even that is improving daily. He goes on coffee shop trips and already has friend status with the baristas. He loves car rides, crate walks right in like it’s nothing, naps on a place cot while we work, and he walks on heel like it’s his job. And he’s always been wonderful with other dogs.

This is a dog who used to panic at the sight of a stranger — and now he’s strolling past shoppers, charming café customers, and proving that every animal deserves a second (or third!) chance.

With just one week left in his program, we are officially on a mission to find Easton the home he deserves, one where he can keep blooming into the happy, confident, well-mannered family pet he has worked SO hard to become.

BONUS: Syd is offering free training sessions to help Easton transition into his new home.

If you’ve been waiting for that unicorn combo of “rescue dog + weeks of professional training + heart of gold,” Easton is your boy."

Let’s find him his people. www.zeusrescues.org. Thanks. Michelle

Meet Oolong.

This beautiful dilute torti came to us back in April as a new momma cat. All of her kittens were adopted and it is time to find her a forever home. She was lucky enough to score a spot at on of our best cat foster. They recently sent these pics and write up!

"Oolong is the most home-ready cat I’ve fostered yet. And that’s saying something, figuring that I’ve fostered 26 cats since February 2024.

Outside of a minor adjustment period when she first came home two Saturdays ago, Oolong has been the Queen of the Castle and will remind you of that with her chirps and trills. Oolong is also purr monster and will erupt in purrs whenever you’re in her orbit - like you don’t even need to be petting her. Purrs will automatically start when she sees you.

Oolong loves to perch on a cat tower or windowsill and take in the outside world. That’s how you know she has - and had - all the tea. (After all, Oolong came into Zeus’ Rescues pregnant and gave birth to a beautiful litter that has since been adopted.)

Also, Oolong has slept by my side or at my feet every night since she came into my care. She will get up throughout the night to eat or use the litter box, but has always been right there when I wake up. Oolong is quick to adapt to a schedule, be it for bedtime or eating.

You don’t want to miss this opportunity to adopt one of the most adorable and loving cats on the market. Be sure to check out her foster on Instagram for more photos and videos."

🚚🐾 Big Update from Zeus’ Rescues!

All of our rescues and rescue operations have officially moved back home to 4601 Freret Street!

Every dog, every cat, every crate, every can of kitten formula — all under one roof again. 💛

As we settle into the new setup we are pausing dog walks and our pet food bank. These services will return after the New Year. We just need a little time to get everything organized, safe, and running smoothly for both our animals, staff and our amazing volunteers.

Thank you for your patience, your support, and your love for this scrappy little rescue that could. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back to Freret in January! Michelle

Meet Milo. Milo came from one of the worst hoarding cases I’ve seen—and this one was heartbreakingly close to home.

The puppies were trapped on a tiny second-floor balcony, left to survive on whatever scraps were tossed out the back door. I could hear their cries from my bedroom every single night. I reported it over and over, but nothing changed… until the family was finally evicted.

When they left, they turned eight puppies loose into the neighborhood. I got the call, rushed over, and was able to catch several of them—skinny, terrified, and just trying to survive.

I’m telling you all this because you would never believe Milo lived that life just four months ago. This boy is pure sunshine. Friendly, eager to please, and basically a blank slate ready to become someone’s heart dog.

Milo recently scored a short-term foster, and they sent us this wonderful update:

Milo did so well in his foster home. He was timid and a little head-shy at first, but within 48 hours he warmed up and really came out of his shell.

He’s a sweet, goofy boy. He got along with all four dogs in the house. He plays a little rough sometimes, but honestly—totally normal for his age. He was also fine with the cat; he’d sniff him and move on.

He showed absolutely zero signs of food, treat, or toy aggression, which is incredible considering what he came from. He’d potty as soon as he went outside.

He had a couple of p*e accidents early on but was already learning to hold it. He’s great on walks and completely unreactive to other dogs. He slept well in his kennel every night.

Any family who adopts him will be very, very lucky.”
If you’re ready to change a life—and have your own changed right back—Milo is your boy. Please complete the online application at www.zeusrescues.org. Thanks! Michelle

Even though we are officially closed for intakes until our move to Freret is over, we couldn’t turn away this tiny, unnamed baby who showed up on our doorstep this morning.

We rushed him straight to Metairie Small Animal Hospital where Dr. Joe and Janna jumped into action the second we walked through the door. They got him stabilized, and he’s now headed to one of our absolute best bottle fosters.

Please send this little guy every bit of good karma, love, and strength you’ve got. He’s going to need it to pull through. Thanks, Michelle

Meet Daphne & Velma — the final mystery pups dumped in our front yard before the fence came down… and honestly, they came in like a Scooby-Doo plot twist we did not have room for, but here we are, making it work like we always do.

These two year-old lab mixes may wear a few scars from their past, but don’t let that fool you — their hearts and personalities are pure sunshine. They are smart, goofy, wiggly, people-loving, treat-motivated, “what are we doing next?” kinda girls.

Basically: all your classic lab qualities wrapped up in two adorable packages. They’re playful. They’re social. They’re ready for adventure.

And they deserve a home that finally treats them right.

If you’re ready for a duo that will make every day brighter (and probably steal your socks), come meet Daphne & Velma at Zeus’ Rescues! They can go as singles or an awesome duo for foster or adoption immediately. Thanks! Michelle
