When we pulled Baxter from an animal control facility in mid-August, we knew he needed some dental work, but it turned out he REALLY needed dental work.
Once he was under anesthesia and the vets could get a better look at his mouth, they discovered that his teeth had been neglected for so long, the infection had entered the bone of his lower jaw (osteomyelitis). He ended up needing part of his jaw removed, in addition to multiple tooth extractions.
We are extremely grateful to the Petfinder Foundation, who awarded us an emergency medical grant to cover this very unexpected, but absolutely necessary expense to save Baxter. Without their support, Baxter would not be where he is today—healthy, pain-free, and in a loving home.
Congratulations Baxter, and thank you Petfinder Foundation!

Some great news to share tonight-- Ellis, the senior cat from animal control who needed the emergency amputation at the end of September, was adopted today! She had a really tough road to recovery, which would not have been possible without the expert care of her foster mom who is a veterinary technician. Congratulations, Ellis!

Curly Q Sue is an awesome senior cat available for adoption. She’s estimated to be in the 7-9yr range, spayed, current on vaccines, and FIV/FeLV negative. She’s had full lab work that was normal. She was found as a stray so her previous history is unknown. She’s a very friendly cat with a great personality. She got her name because it looks like her tail was fractured at some point in the past, and it healed kind of curled up (you can see it a little in the photo).
Please contact us with any interest in this beautiful cat. She will make a great companion.

I wish we didn't still need the incubator as we enter into November, but unfortunately there are still very small, very sick kittens out there. Kitten season continues in coastal Georgia. Mission Meow
At least they are dressed for Halloween.

Salem is a very friendly 4-5 month old male neutered kitten available for adoption. He was pulled from animal control with a severe injury to his left hind leg, and he had to have a surgery called an FHO (femoral head ostectomy) to fix it. The procedure went great and he’s ready to find a loving home. Salem is a confident kitten who seems to believe he is a dog. He gets along great with other animals and people. He is up to date on vaccines, FIV/FeLV negative, and microchipped. Please contact us with any questions or interest in this great kitten.
