I have some sad news. As some of you know, I rescue the strays in the area I live. Dogs and cats. Well, I went to visit my daughter and grandson in Arizona and 3 nights ago while my MIL was sleeping one of my rescue pups went after and attacked my little Meko kittie. My MIL tried to get to them as quickly as she could. Apparently one of the other rescue pups joined in and they had Meko backed into a corner. My MIL took Meko to our vet as soon as he opened. Meko had a fractured rib and a fractured shoulder. My Vet wanted to keep her for a few days as Meko was not eating on her own. Her had her semi-sedated and was giving her something for pain. She seemed to be doing well and he was ready to send her home and she passed away.
I am so brokenhearted, especially since I was not there with her. Now, I have had these 2 rescue pups for almost a year and they have never shown any aggression towards my kitties So I have no clue why this happened. I have so many questions to which I know I will never have the answers to.
My MIL has said that one of the rescue pups ( Ana ) also tried to go after another kitty last night but this time my GSD stepped in and helped my MIL stop Ana. Right now all the kitties are in my master bedroom so they are safe. I have some hard decisions to make when I get home. I can not have a dog that goes after my kitties. I just can't. I hate the thought of taking them to a shelter but I may have no choice. I am a patreon of Lee Asher's rescue sanctuary ( The Asher House) and it is possible he will take Ana and possibly Roger.


All I know is that I am so very sad that I have lost my little Meko. She was one of my first rescues and I have had her since she was a kitten. She was going on 11 years old. Fly high my little girl and know that Mama will miss you so very much.
