In Memory of MollyShe was the 10 year old gal my wife and I rescued over 4 years ago. She was pesky at first until she settled in. Words just could not express Molly especially in the love and attention she gave us. It was so hard to let her go. Her last night my wife kept a constant vigil on her, checking on her, and it was me that found her. I sure do miss her. I remember at night when I would let her out and she would run and circle the yard. She was a pest until she got her way and on the bed. Thank you for trusting us with Molly.

Tyler's Happy EndingI would like to thank you for bringing a little wigglebutt into my life. This coming August 9th (2017) will be 8 years since I adopted from your center. At the time, his name was Gus. He was starting a new chapter in his life so I gave him a new name. He now goes by Tyler. He had a lot of trust issues in the beginning, but with a lot of love and patience, he turned into a sweetheart. Thanks again and God bless you for all you do for those in need.
Sincerely,
-The Lehman Family

In Memory of Gracie
It is with great sadness that I inform you of the passing of Gracie (formerly Cookie), adopted March 9, 2013. She was a feisty little girl who loved being the center of attention. Gracie enjoyed playing ball, walking with friends and snuggling. Her death was unexpected, she died in her sleep. Thank you for getting her out of a bad situation and into my heart and home. She'll be missed.

Rec's Happy Ending
We adopted Max (formerly Rec) in July 2016, and every day he brings us so much joy. He's joined our family of 11 rescue cats and another rescue dog, and he just fit straight in. He and Talley (a one-year-old boxer/pit mix) accepted each other from the get-go and instantly bonded over a shared love of cuddles, play-fighting and pup-peroni. Talley enjoys taking Max for a walk and will grab his lead in her teeth and
guide him when we go outside. We're not sure if she's trying to be
helpful or just big-sister-bossy!
Max loves car rides, chasing round the yard, and chasing after toys we throw. We can't call it fetch yet because he hasn't mastered the 'bringing it back' bit! He greets each day with a very enthusiastic song and is working on his commands. He's learned 'sit' and 'calm' (we use the latter when he's bouncing up and down with excitement), "let's go", and 'wait' - but just for the count of 5 so far.
He came to us via an absolutely wonderful foster mom, Carrie. We can't thank her enough for all the love she gave him. Max has epilepsy but hopefully is stable now on his meds. He's such a little lover-boy that we can't imagine life without him. Thank so you much CSAC!

In Memory of BusterI knew from the second I met Buster that he was going to be my boy, and he was. He was my little shadow no matter where I was in the house including the bathroom ;). I remember the first time he walked in the house, he walked in like he owned it, he looked at Bandit like "I'm home so you better move over." I will always remember when I came home he would gallop around the living room until he got loved, and boy did he love to eat. I will miss him dearly. I could not have loved him more if I gave birth to him myself ;). I was the lucky one to have Buster in my life and give him his forever home! We only had Buster in our lives for close to 4 years but he sure did give us a lifetime of love, and we were the lucky ones.
Keep up the great work with the CSAC Rescue, and we will keep on touch with Facebook and when we are ready and one of those baby catches our eye we will ask to adopt again.

In Memory of Kobi
Kobi (14 yrs old) had a wonderful 5 1/2 years with us despite having a host of medical problems and spending a lot of time visiting the vet. We found out that the reason he kept having left ear infections was due to a tumor deep inside his left ear. He had the TECA procedure, total ear canal removal, and the ear infections never came back, and he felt much better. We also had that large lipoma on his chest removed, along with two benign tumors deep in the folds of his intestines. We gave him eye-drops, but he still had eye infections so we were also putting ABT ointment in his eyes every day, and he liked this because they made him feel better. He had put on some weight the first two years here so we put him on a diet. We took him to the park, and he loved just happily staring at the lake and birds for hours. We took him to the ER when he stopped eating, and they diagnosed him with a gastric ulcer. I felt in my gut there was a lot more going on there but treated him for that. I had to stay home full-time and that was great for Kobi because he loved me being home with him 24 hours a day. He always remained very frightened of being groomed since his ear being cut so we medicated him prior to grooming and that helped some. His last x-ray showed gross abnormality in his liver and spleen and so we decided it would be in Kobi's best interest not to put him through another major abdominal surgery. He felt extremely loved and pampered by everyone, especially his mommy, and we love him dearly. I pray he is happy and pain free running around with Rusty in Heaven. Please thank Doris, Susan and the whole CSAC crew for allowing us to be part of his life.
