None are near me I've tried looking, someone linked me to a rescue group page. But, yeaaa, no luck. Thanks for the suggestion though!

He is white, with one white and one green eye..just striking he's very sad, missing his owner, a neighbor is feeding him but we need to find him a home. We contacted various shelters and rescue groups, who have told us they are full. Do you know anyone who would want to open their hearts and home to Frankie? Photo attached. (I am posting this on behalf of my husbands friend. Please PM if interested!)

Did anyone contact the Arizona Border Collie rescue? They may be willing to help even if the dog is not a purebred border collie. link below

Also it may be worthwhile to contact Border Collie rescues in other states if the AZ BC rescue is full. Sometimes transportation can be arranged. Just google border collie rescue for a list


It may be worthwhile to asked Frankie's vet if they will keep him in mind in case one of their client's would like to adopt a pet.


P.S. found a list of BC rescues

Link to a Mesa AZ no kill shelter (maybe they already contacted this shelter...posting just in case)

I just want to thank everyone for their suggestions for getting Rico a home. Unfortunately, its getting way too hot here for him to stay outside when we are not home, he went to the NSPCA today I VERY sad about it, but it just wasnt right keeping him outside in the 95+ degree heat.

I did cry, I totally got attached to him and I felt like a failure not being able to find him a home. But, I do believe taking him to the pound (no-kill "sanctuary") was the right thing to do and they said he would find a home quick.

Thanks so much for starting such a useful thread Voodoo. I'm so glad we have a place to help out animals. Your pictures of Duke are amazing; he looks very healthy and happy now. He is fortunate to have you. I am part of a rescue group here in MD (cats and dogs), so if we have an urgent situation, I'll post here. Rescue is getting difficult in these tough financial times because less people are adopting; our last group of four rescue kittens got no interest and ended up growing into pets (I kept two and my sister and her boyfriend adopted two). Lately we have been trying to focus more on trap-neuter-release with ferals and spay/neuter education. I hope adoption picks back up soon, because in these tough times, there are more animals than ever who need homes. Thanks again for this thread Voodoo--hope we can all help make a difference.

Hello everyone! I am posting an ad on petfinder, bestfriends and decided to try here to!

For Northeast/Central Florida (I am willing to drive)

I rescued an adorable tuxedo/calico kitten a few days ago during a bad storm. He had a bad upper respiratory infection and needed alot of food and love. He had no life in his little eyes. He is currently living in my washroom away from my other cats. I would love to keep him but I already have three rescued cats and cannot afford another. He is doing great on the antibiotics and today even played with a toy mouse and ball! He is so sweet and affectionate.

If anyone is interested in this little guy please PM me. I think he would do best in a home where he will be given lots of attention and love. I don't think he would do well around big dogs but he is young so could adjust. Thanks!

Brooke: Thank you for your kind words... Duke has made me the rescue activist that I am. And you are right, these trying economic times in the U.S. has been very hard on animals.... thank you for your work in MD....the furkids thank you for it.

SHY KITTENS
NEED HOMES


DIANA, FLORENCE AND MARY are shy 13 week old female rescued kittens that need homes. They were rescued from behind a deli on a major road. Diana is black and white and is the most frightened, she needs a very special home. Florence is much calmer and will relax being held and loves to be groomed. Mary is shy, but like Florence will relax when held. They have all tested negative for FELV/FIV and been spayed. They deserve a chance at a good life in a loving home. If you would like to help these precious kittens, please call Sharon at 631 987 8152.

Young cats EVICTED
FROM THEIR HOME

ABIGAIL is a black and white female, and MOBY is mostly white with just a patch of black on his head and the tip of his tail and has beautiful blue eyes. MOBY and Abigail are very sweet and just want someone to love. They both get along well with other cats and dogs. They have tested negative for felv/fiv, been spayed/neutered and vaccinated. If you would like to meet ABIGAIL AND/OR MOBY, please call Sharon at 631 987 8152.
