Diamond, a three year-old chihuahua that needs a good home. She appeared in my parents’ front yard in Gardena on May 11. My parents are elderly and can’t keep her but took care of her for a few days while my sisters and I tried to locate her owners (by asking around the neigborhood and posting flyers). We also took her to VCA Coast in Hermosa Beach where we found out she has a micro-chip and that she is three years old, her name is Diamond and she was originally from the Long Beach Animal Shelter. VCA Coast called the number from the micro-chip but the person answering the phone denied having a dog. Since my parents couldn’t keep her (they are elderly and had to fly to Hawaii on May 23) and my sisters and I already have multiple pets, Diamond was brought to the Long Beach Animal Shelter on May 16. We were told that Diamond would be kept there until May 30, at which time the Long Beach SPCA (next door to the shelter) would take her, providing they had room for her.

Meanwhile, we had spread the word about Diamond to co-workers and friends. One of my co-workers said she knew someone who was interested so, on Sunday, May 30, my sisters and I went down to the Long Beach SPCA and my sister “adopted” Diamond. Since she was already spayed and had had the required vaccines and shots, we paid the $125 fee and took her home that day. Unfortunately, my co-worker’s friend was unable to take Diamond. Another co-worker of mine has been taking care of Diamond but can no longer do it. We only have a few days to find a home for her.

If you can take Diamond in, please contact: Stan L. Cabotaje Phone: 310-527-4364  e-mail: scabotaje @aol.com

Little

All - 

I don’t know if anyone remembers Little, a feral cat that I got when she was about 3 month’s old and socialized.  She was soon lost after an adoption event in West L.A. and I searched for her day and night for 2 1/2 months before I finally found her.  She has become extremely special to me and a long term foster over the past year.  Her picture is attached. 

A month ago, she developed a chronic ear infection to which I did several tests to figure out what was going on.  I finally spent $1000 to do a CT scan and x-rays and they found that she has a very big polyp growing in her ear canal that will just become bigger if not removed.  She has been walking around with her head tilted for the past few weeks.  She needs a complicated surgery called a Ventral Bulla Osteotomy which will remove the polyp and any fluid in her ears.
