FOSTERED! KeAi: a Good Boy with an Old Heart
UPDATE: KeAi is in a longterm, loving foster home! Very likely a slow foster-fail situation. 🙂
KeAi (Cutey) is an old boy with severe heart disease with spinal arthritis. He has been with a long-term foster (fospice) the last half year and gets a LOT of love and care. We still pay all his medical bills, which are considerable, and he has a great life. He had been clearly abandoned by his former family (along with leash and all) at the edge of an apartment complex. He is an absolute sweetheart and loves going for walks, getting just as excited about going out as he would have when he was still a puppy.
If you are in Beijing and would consider formally adopting Keai, please click the adoption link below!

ADOPTED! Ermu has a new home!
BEIJING – KITTEN FOR ADOPTION “Ermu” got trapped at the bottom of a 5-meter deep ventilation shaft (photo) and was about three inches next to an even deeper space (about 20 meters deep). How he got down there is a complete mystery. Seems perfectly healthy and friendly.

Lufei had Cherry Eye Surgery Today
Lufei had surgery today to correct his “cherry eye” condition (prolapse of the third eyelid gland). Gordon, Baby, Anan and Liangliang are in line for the same procedure in the next couple weeks. If you would like to support our work, we really, really, really need help. Paying our veterinary bills are a daily uphill struggle and we need all the help we can get.

Sisi – Chinese Rescue Dog Rescued from the Brink of Death, Now a Sweet, Lovely Girl Ready for Her Own Home
Sisi is a shy, but friendly girl dog we rescued in Beijing, China, from the brink of death. A stray dog, she had become ill with distemper and was completely emaciated and unable to stand when we rescued her.
Pudong – Shy at First, Friendly to All
Pudong is a dog we rescued from Shanghai, where she was stray, possibly lost or abandoned. She is slightly timid at first, but is friendly to all, and has no aggression. Would be a great dog for a family with children and other pets.
Meibao （ADOPTED)
When we rescued Meibao, it was a rainy day and she was cowering in a water-filled ditch, in a remote part of Shunyi district, Beijing, covered in mud, half of her body under water, having just escaped a local dog butcher, who had been chasing her. We got a call from the person who tried to rescue her, but she was so terrified she wouldn’t let anyone come near her. After I was able to get her out of the water and to safety, we were relieved to see she had no injuries. She’d been in the water and mud so long, her fur was a single shade of grey. Meibao has a sensitive personality — she’s not aggressive, but will sometimes nip at strangers. Once she accepts you as her best friend, she’s very easy to handle and super cute.
ADOPTED! From Foster to Forever Mom
XiaoZhuang (aka, Brother Zhuang) has been adopted by his foster mom (not pictured). We visited him in Huairou yesterday, and he still remembered us. When we rescued him, he had a seriously leg fracture, and was in a ditch for at least a day, unable to move.
Xiaobei – ADOPTED! – Kitten Who Hitched a Very Long Ride
We rescued this kitten last night. XiaoBei travelled in the undercarriage of a tourist’s car all the way from a resort in BaShang to Beijing (about 4 hours). They had fed her at their hotel, but didn’t realize that when they left, she’d snuck into a space above the chassis of the car. When they stopped a rest stop in Beijing, she crawled out and approached them. UNFORTUNATELY, they had no intention of taking her home with them – and were just going to leave her at the rest stop (4 hours away from her home). Thank God, my partner and I stopped in the rest area just at the moment and took her with us. Tomorrow, she is going to a foster home (thank you, Shirley!) and hopefully have a forever home soon!

ADOPTED ！已领养！: Heizi – Kitten with Spinal Injury
ADOPTED!! Heizi has made a full recovery and is doing really well in his new home!
BELOW ARE ARCHIVED UPDATES:
UPDATE : This morning, discovered Heizi has a low WBC count. Tested weak-positive for FPV, moving to infectious disease unit to treat. His signs otherwise are very bright, but obviously this is not good news.
UPDATE ON HEIZI’s CONDITION: UPDATE: Huge improvement! (Sept 27, 2020)
SEPT 13, 2020: We’re not sure what happened to him (obviously some kind of external trauma), but Heizi was found unable to move, all four limbs paralyzed, by a compassionate young woman, who was unable to afford to bring him to a hospital. X-rays and MRI revealed that he’d sustained an injury to his cervical vertebrae, but surgery was not a viable option. Via non-surgical treatment, he’s regained some use of his forelegs, but very little response in hindlegs.
