Most urgently, Memphis needed an emergency blood transfusion upon being admitted. But this transfusion is just the beginning of an incredibly intensive recovery journey. The world (and the people inhabiting it) has been extremely unkind to this precious, wholly-deserving boy and right now, he really needs his Village. Memphis got to us on Sunday, July 3, 2022, and we've been in tears ever since. He's only estimated to be 5.5 -6 months old, and yet, he's been through SO much already in his short life. And now, he's fighting for his life—all thanks to the actions of a very, VERY cruel human.
It hurts. It’s frustratingly disheartening, and it's downright maddening. It's a feeling that's near-impossible to put into words, even though it’s our job to be the loudest and strongest voice for our buddies. However, July 3rd was also the day we made our first promise to Memphis; a promise to do everything and anything in our power to save him. So, we have this to say to the monster who made the conscious decision to do this to a living, breathing, life.- We pray karma hits, and hits quick. And today, this boy is seen - REALLY seen - for who he is: A undeniably deserving bundle of pure, pure love who will, from now until Forever, only know kindness and love.
Please keep Memphis in your thoughts and please make a small donation if you are able. Every ounce of support for his care is extremely appreciated, as this recovery will be an "all-paws-in" kind of thing. Thank you so much, all.

🚨EMERGENCY RESCUE UNDERWAY🚨 - Memphis is IN CRITICAL CONDITION & fighting for his life 💔
We just pulled this horribly emaciated boy from Broward County Animal Control and immediately rushed him to the emergency room. He was found tied to a tree in 93-degree heat, extremely dehydrated, and dangerously anemic 😞 ... But beyond this, he is severely EMACIATED—weighing only 17 meager pounds. He is having a lot of trouble walking; he can hardly bear any weight at all. He has green discharge spewing from both eyes, severe hair loss, and he smells putrid. And sadly, initial blood tests confirmed that he is also dealing with a severe case of parasites that are sucking his blood dry.
When we pulled up to the ER, the minute the vet techs came out and saw the condition Memphis was in, they rushed him inside. Then, they rushed back outside with an EMERGENCY STABILIZATION form in-hand and confirmed that his condition was already far too dire to wait to begin treatment until we'd received his initial $ estimate.– Most urgently, Memphis needed an emergency blood transfusion upon being admitted. But this transfusion is just the beginning of an incredibly intensive recovery journey.
