So as you know, we foster mostly kittens. We sometimes do dogs or puppies, but every once in awhile I decide why not! With Avian flu cases on the rise, shelters have been forced to hold onto animals who may have been outside for 4 weeks! These chickens were taken by someone from a supposed drug house when they were just days old. Because we didn't know their history they required a foster home, without other birds, for 4 weeks. I thought, why not! The kids will love watching them grow, and grow they have! Thing 1 and Thing 2 are now available for adoption together. We don't know whether they are males or females, but hope they find the best farm home possible!

Ollie arrived to Canada on April 23 from Louisiana. He was part of a large transport effort in which we took in a handful of dogs. Ollie is approximately 8 years old. He is a very particular little man. As with most of our foster chihuahuas, he has become attached to me. He only wants to be pet when he wants to be pet. He loves human food and is very good at begging for it. Today he was cleared for adoption and already has an application. I hope he finds the perfect home in which he is loved more than anyone can imagine.

This adorable lady came to us 3 weeks ago when a mean raccoon killed the rest of her family minus her brother (who lost his hind legs to the raccoon). Unfortunately, her brother succumbed to his injuries shortly after coming into care. Indigo has been thriving and has such a great personality. I can't wait to see her grown up!

These 2 spent a month with us and were lucky enough to go to the same furever home today! Mario and Luigi came in with severe upper respiratory infections when they were 3.5 weeks old. I'm so happy we got to make a difference in these two kittens lives and allowed them to live their best lives!

Wow, this man is very hard to get a photo of! He may only be a couple of days old, but he doesn't stop moving!

Meet Raven and Poe. I received a message on February 28th asking if I would take in a mom chihuahua who just had an emergency csection. Of course the answer was yes!

Raven had 2 VERY large puppies. Unfortunately one of the puppies didnt make it.

Raven has been a very particular lady since the day she arrived. For the first week checking on Poe was difficult. She would lunge at the pen when anyone walked passed or if an animal was near. Sometime you risked getting bit to make sure Poe was doing well. To this day she still doesn't like any of the animals near the pen and is very protective of Poe. She has also become very protective of Scott and loves laying in his lap or in his chest.

Poe has been a big puppy since day one and just continues to thrive. She is now 4 weeks old and is 1/3 of moms weight. She is becoming a very adventurous little lady and very playful. I am so excited to continue to watch her grow!

Today was a hard day. Tulip came to us last week. She was one of the Texas puppies and was the runt of her litter. Unfortunately, a mistake was made and she inhaled some formula unintentionally. She sadly developed aspiration pneumonia and that is when she ended up with us. I began tube feeding her and offering her soaked kibbles. We thought we were making progress, but unfortunately on Tuesday she started to go downhill. She made it clear to me she was tired of fighting and we made the difficult decision to put her to sleep.

This is a reminder to anyone who is caring for neonatal animals. If you aren't sure what you are doing in regards to feeding it is often best not to do anything and to seek help immediately. It is easy to make mistakes which can have very harsh consequences. Never feed an animal human formula or regular milk. Also NEVER feed a cold neonatal. The first thing you should do if you find one is get it on a controlled heat source.

We miss you Tulip.

Well I guess we will start with the ones going up for adoption first. Meet Patty, Burger, Fries and Pop. Patty came into the shelter as a stray with what we pressume was babies of hers. Unfortunately, she was already pregnant again, so I took her home. On March 6th in the evening Patty gave birth to 3 healthy little ones. They will be 3 weeks this Sunday and that means they need to be separated. This means that Burger will have to live on his own and the 3 girls will to home together! If you know someone looking for GPs, tell them to look on our website next week. windsorhumane.org

I'm so sorry that we have been so quiet. Last kitten season wasn't easy. We take the hardest cases and therefore take a lot of hits. I won't lie that I took it hard and really struggled. I'm trying to have a more positive outlook this year and focusing on the good we are able to accomplish. Unfortunately, this one wasn't a good outcome. This little man came to us last night very premature. Lacking most of the fur on his body and very tiny. I managed to keep him alive overnight and was up every couple of hours to feed him. Unfortunately we made the tough decision today to end his suffering and laid him to rest. I know this is just the start of kitten season, but I can't let myself be upset for too long as I have many others already here needing me. We will introduce you to them soon!
