Hi, my name is Lola.![]()
I’m a 2-year-old Chihuahua Pug mix living with my mom in a women’s shelter. I am also my mom’s service animal. My cuddles and calming presence help interrupt her panic attacks and give her space when public places feel overwhelming.![]()
One day, while I was napping in our room, I suddenly became very sick. I kept vomiting and having bloody diarrhea. My mom was terrified she might lose me, but she did not have the money to take me to an emergency vet.![]()
She went to her social worker for help and was given a list of resources. That is when she found Feeding Pets of the Homeless.![]()
After a quick application, my case was reviewed by a case manager, and I was approved for veterinary care.![]()
At the clinic, the doctor ran diagnostics while giving me fluids and an anti-nausea injection. I was sent back with antibiotics and instructions for a bland diet while I recovered.![]()
Now I’m resting with my mom and slowly getting back to myself. I can’t wait to run, play, and keep being there for her, just like she is always there for me.![]()
Feeding Pets of the Homeless contributed $770 toward my care.![]()
