Life is as dear to a
mute creature as it is to man. Just as one wants happiness and fears pain,
just as one wants to live and not die, so do other
creatures.

*Muffin's is not a
shelter.*
We do not take in animals. The pet owner or rescuer must be
able to hold on to the pet until a home is found. Muffin's
has assisted pet owners and rescuers in finding homes for 8,500 pets
including thousands of cats, dogs, puppies, kittens. Homes have also
been found for ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles, birds,
hamsters, and iguanas. Many of these pets were going to a kill
shelter or on the street.

HOPE
HOPE Survived Katrina. She wasrescued from a Louisiana kill shelter. She's a small, loving, seven year old, people friendly Beagle, who was bred for years, then surrendered
to a kill shelter. Her babies were taken from her and she was filled with
milk. Macy's
fund helps other pets too! Macy's
MiracleWhen
eight week old Macy was rescued, both of her red bulging eyes were horribly
infected. Dee applied Chamomile eye presses hourly to Macy’s inflamed eyes.
The following day, Macy was rushed to the vet, who had to remove both her
eyes. She was fighting for her life, as she was anemic, and flea infested.
After she healed, Macy was adopted by Miriam and her four adult cats. She
runs, jumps in the air and catches a toy. She’s a fun kitty who is the Queen
Bee in the feline family. Macy always uses the litter pan...Thank you for all of
your love and support. *Viva’s
9 LivesDuring the NorEast ‘05 blizzard, a cat
wondered into an empty shack, where she was locked in for two weeks. There
were no foot or paw prints in the snow. When Dee found her, ‘Viva’ was
screaming and scratching at the door. There was blood the on cats paws and on
the door. Viva was a starving three pound, malnourished, seven month old kitty.
She went to the vet, had IV fluids, was blood tested, given shots and dewormed
and later spayed. Ten pound Viva adopted Dee and her four adult felines. Muffin’s
was able to subsidize her $150 medical fee due to your generous donations and continued
support.
Sweet
Sammy a 2 year old black kitty, was found with one eye shot out by a BB
gun. His other eye was badly infected. Your generous contributions made it
possible for Muffin’s to subsidize his $250 medical treatment. Sammy was adopted
by a Karen, who was smitten by his charm and his laid sweetness.
