Vivi arrived at the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter (SCCAS) in really bad shape. She had multiple deep puncture wounds on her back legs and body, probably from an attack. The veterinary team at SCCAS treated the wounds immediately. She was then placed into a loving CAPE foster home to give her time to heal. And once she started feeling better, her sweet and playful personality began to shine.
We are so thankful to Vivi’s foster guardian for taking such good care and helping her find a wonderful forever home. We think Vivi scored BIG TIME!❤️

Are you prepared for a disaster? Do you have needed equipment for each animal in your household? Have you packed your go bags for both you and your companion animals? We hope this video inspires you to prepare your family, if you haven't already, for an emergency evacuation.
???????? Please do not hesitate to contact CAPE if you're in need of evacuation guidance at (831) 336- 4695 or info@capeanimals.org. Here are some resources to help prepare your plan: CAL FIRE Ready Set Go: https://www.readyforwildfire.org/prepare-for-…/ready-set-go/ PETA Disaster Preparedness: https://prime.peta.org/2016/09/emergency/ Pacific Gas and Electric Emergency Plan: https://www.safetyactioncenter.pge.com/ Ready Evacuation Suggestions: https://www.ready.gov/pets !Belle lived on the streets of Mexico. Not knowing where her next meal would come from was most likely the only life she had ever known. Belle was rescued by our rescue partner Compassion Without Borders and brought to Muttopia, our shelter for rescued dogs co-created by CAPE and CWOB in 2016. Muttopia is a safe haven for dogs to receive the vet care and time they need to get back to health, both physically and psychologically.
Belle is a bit shy of humans so we decided to move her from Muttopia to CAPE's sanctuary in Grass Valley, CA where she could be in a foster home environment. She arrived here over the weekend and she’s already starting to play with toys and the other dogs. Last night she slept sprawled out on the bed she shared with two humans! Belle is sweet, gentle, and darling. She weighs about ten pounds and we believe she is around 8 months old. She would do well in a calm house with another gentle dog. CAPE is currently taking applications for Belle. If interested in adopting Belle, please go here! Izzy arrived at the shelter as a stray with mats, burs, missing hair, and irritated skin. Her vet exam determined that she was underweight, had cataracts, a sizeable under bite, and a significant heart murmur. In a nutshell, Izzy was in need of some major veterinary care.Once CAPE was contacted, we flew into high gear and placed Izzy in one of our amazing foster homes.
Izzy is approximately 12 years old. She met her four-legged foster family, including the resident cat, and did great. She had a much-needed bath and groom and she is already feeling so much better. Izzy also got a full vet workup, including bloodwork and urinalysis. The good news is she is quite healthy! Our biggest hurdle will be keeping an eye on Izzy’s heart murmur and managing her allergies. Already, her hair is starting to grow back and Izzy is adjusting to her new, pampered lifestyle. We will keep you posted on her progress. If you would like to support animals like Izzy, please visit www.capeanimals.org/make-a-donation1.html |
