Submitted by desiree on Tue, 07/27/2010 - 20:11
Lady & Princess' family had to move to an apartment which does not allow pets. We need your help in finding loving homes for these two adorable cats. They do not need to be placed together and can be adopted separately. They both had their shots in October and September of 2007. Lady (orange & white) is 4 years old. Princess (grey) is 6 years old.
If interested please call Elana at 571.271.1703 (owner). Please forward this information to anyone in DC/MD/VA area who would be interested in adopting these little furry angels.

Urgent home needed for Baby Azalea! She almost died twice :(
Submitted by desiree on Thu, 06/10/2010 - 17:24![]()
This beautiful dog in Maryland needs YOUR URGENT HELP so she can live a long and happy life.
Baby Azalea was found in a Baltimore alley, hogtied, with bites all over her face. She was a bait dog used for dog fights, discarded like trash when she was no longer "useful."
Tara's Babies rescued her from euthanasia at a shelter and she now has a wonderful foster place in MD, but only until this Saturday the 12th. We urgently need to find her a permanent or long term foster home. She would be best as the only pet (definitely no cats!), but could live with a playful submissive male.
