Pet Haven partners with RLRR

THEODOREPet Haven has been an incredible help to Red Lake Rosie's. The cat division of Pet Haven has taken quite a few cats this year, which is a great help as there are so many cats in need of homes up on the reservation.

THEODORETheodore had been a RLRR foster cat for about 6 months and had not received any inquiries, so Pet Haven agreed to take him in order to get him more exposure at the adoption events, etc. He went to the vet for a routine check-up and it was discovered that he had severe stomatitis, which causes inflammation of the entire mouth and gums. It was decided that it would be best for Theo to have a dental with extractions as his condition can be very painful. Last Thursday, Theo had 26 teeth extracted - everything but his 4 canines! This, of course, is not a cheap procedure, but Pet Haven was willing to provide this care to Theo, so he would not have to suffer.

MINIPet Haven also recently took Mini, a little kitten who has an infected eye and whose mom was rejecting him. He will be on oral antiviral meds and special eye ointment until he's all healed up.

CHEVYChevy is another cat that Pet Haven has taken for RLRR. He had been caught in a rabbit snare and had sores around his back legs. He had also been outside all winter in below-freezing temperatures and as a result, his ears were frostbitten and half of each ear has fallen off.

DOVEDove and Sharmaine are RLRR cats who will be up for adoption soon through Pet Haven, as well.

SHARMAINEIt's nice to have such a dedicated rescue partner like Pet Haven to help RLRR with the cats who have medical conditions. If you would like to donate anything to help cover Theodore's dental costs, you can go to Pet Haven's website: www.pethavenmn.org. Every little bit helps! There is a donation page where you can donate any amount of money online. A big THANK YOU to Pet Haven for helping with the RLRR cats!

Thanks,
Lauren

Giving thanks for sweaters

SWEATERS!We had a wonderful time with Laura and Ann who spent Thanksgiving weekend at RLRR. We finished the tarping, did lots of cleanup at the shelter, socialized dogs and pups, and got lots accomplished.

ABBY AND CHEETAHLaura brought more sweaters knitted by her mom, and we had a great time dressing up the dogs and pups.

SIMON BUMBLE BEEThe sweaters are not only warm and comfortable- they are very colorful and beautiful. The animals seemed to love the excitement and attention.

CHEETAHLaura and Ann left this morning with 7 dogs/pups on board including Cheetah, Estelle, Daisy, 3 Singing Chipmunks- Alvin, Theodore, and Simone, and Ada.

DAISYThey are all going to foster care, and our dear Daisy is going to Auntie Ruth's courtesy of Pet Haven for a while. Dee Dee was able to get the great placements for us.

LAURA AND ADAWe had a great and productive weekend, meeting Ann for the first time
and renewing our friendship with Laura. We had a blast!!
