My Name: Pip

My Pet Parent's Name: Madalyn 

My Rescue Adoption Story:

I was very sick and running in the middle of a busy street. A man driving in a car noticed me, stopped his car, got out of his car and stopped traffic. Then he scooped me up and took me home to his family. I had no collar, tags or microchip. They tried very hard to find where I came from, because someone might have been looking for me, but no one ever came forward. In the meantime, they took me to the vet and after a couple of surgeries and some medication I felt so much better! Now I live with the man who found me, and his family is my family too!

My Name: Tim

My Foster Mom's name: Pamela

My Rescue Story:

I'm still discovering where my journey will lead, but my rescue story began when the only family I had ever known left me at the South Los Angeles Shelter at 11 years old. With just four days to find a new home before facing euthanasia, my future seemed uncertain—until the incredible Sal at Balooja's Foundation saw something special in me. They rescued me, provided the medical care I needed, and gave me a second chance at life.  I am currently in foster and available for adoption, but I am so special I am worming my way into my foster mom's heart...
