Hello to all you Heidi Harris listeners who heard about Foreclosed Upon Pets, Inc. (FUPI) on her #1 in Las Vegas morning talk show. 

If you care about abandoned animals that need new forever homes, here are the ways you can help support them through FUPI.  Please join our efforts:

In the subject line include “I want to foster (indicate “cat” or “dog”)”.  If you foster a cat you’ll be provided with a crate, litter box, litter and food.  If you foster a dog you’ll be provided with a collar, leash, food, toys, and if needed, a crate.

2)  If you are interested in VOLUNTEERING, you can help by helping staff our weekly adoption events at various Petsmart and Petco stores or by transporting animals from their foster homes to and from the adoption events.  See list of other desired skills under Wish List on FUPI’s website at www.forecloseduponpets.org.

In the subject line include “I want to volunteer (“at adoption events” or “by transporting animals”).

In your email include:

• - Frequency that you want to volunteer (for a few hours on a Saturday), e.g., 1st Saturday of the month, 2nd Saturday, 3rd Saturday, 4th Saturday, all Saturdays, or alternating Saturdays.
• - Location you want  to volunteer at.  See Weekly Adoption Events on FUPI website for Petsmart and Petco addresses.  (Petco adoption locations at: Warm Springs/Durango, Rainbow/Spring Mountain, Blue Diamond/Valley View, Craig/Martin Luther King; Petsmart adoption locations at: Charleston/ Hualapai , Lake Mead Parkway/Water Street, Stephanie/Warm Springs, Eastern/Russell)

3)  If you are interested in DONATING, e.g., a monetary contribution, supplies or other service, please see Donate Today and Wish List on FUPI website.  We are a grass roots organization that pays no salaries so 100% of your contribution goes directly to our Animal Medical Fund for spays/neuters, vaccinations, tests and microchipping.

Thank you for your interest in FUPI and for caring about the welfare of homeliess animals.  Thank you Heidi, for inviting FUPI to be on your #1 morning talk show.

Hi there, I’m Bella.  I’m only 10 months old and I’ve already given birth to 8 kittens.  It was really rough and almost killed me.

Bella is the perfect example of why kittens need to be spayed at an early age.  She was just a kitten herself while giving birth to more kittens.  Bella is still very thin but has a hearty appetite.  She is very affectionate, purrs a lot and gives kisses on the mouth.  She’s a smart one too and she stands her ground if another cat try to bully her.  Bella is spunky and a real character.  She is spayed and current on her vaccinations.  Bella is ready for someone to “mother” her for a change.

MEOW, my name is Maxmillian.  I’m 4 1/2 years old black and white medium length tuxedo, and I weigh 17 pounds without an ounce of fat on me.  I’m a muscular beauty who moves like a black panther.  I have a beautiful Roman nose, unlike most cat profiles. 

Maxmillian’s current owner, a cat lover and rescuerer, adopted him from Lied Animal Shelter last year, saving his life.  His only fault really, is  that he is an alpha male.  Previously he only had to share his owner’s attention with a 12 year old arthritic cat who was docile to him.  Now, with foster cats constantly coming and going as they’re readied for adoption, Maxmillian is feeling challenged and stressed.  It’s an extremely difficult decision for Maxmillian’s owner to make, but in order for her to be able continue her mission of fostering homeless cats, Maxmillian will need to find a home where he can be the only cat.  He is very loving, and devoted and follows his owner from room to room and lays at her feet like a dog.  Maxmillian is neutered, microchipped and current on his vaccinations.  He wears nail clips on his claws.

Hello, we are Lucy and Jack.  We are 2 year old Patterdale Terrier (Fell Terriers)  littermates and we’re looking for a forever home preferably together, but we can be adopted separately.

Lucy and Jack’s owner lost his job and residence and the three are temporarily living in a weekly rental.  Patterdale Terriers are working terriers with very high energy levels.  They’recurrently  being taken to the park daily to be exercised but long-term they need to be in a home with a yard and a human who is willing to provide training and regular and consistent exercise.  They love to run, play with each one another and other dogs and like spending time at the dog park.  A home with young children,  cats or small fur-bearing pets such as hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits is not recommended as a Patterdales may view small furry animals as prey – remember, after all, they are hunting dogs by nature.

Lucy has a smooth black coat and Jack has a rough black coat.  They weigh 17 and 20 pounds respectively.   Lucy has been spayed.  Jack will be neutered soon and both will be microchipped and current on their vaccinations prior to adoption.

Hi, I’m Frosty.  I’m a golden colored Shepherd mix, 2 years of age.  I weigh about 45 – 50 pounds.  I am spayed, microchipped and current on my vaccinations.

We’re Missy and Phantom.  We just lost our home because our owner lost his job and had to move back east.  We can be adopted together or separately.

A nice man took in these homeless cats that were roaming his apartment complex.  He took in Missy first as she was just a kitten (now 5 – 6 months old) and was being beaten up by the other strays.  He was afraid she wouldn’t survive on her own.  Then he took in Phantom, who is about 1 year old.  Phantom was obviously someone’s pet at one time.  He’s tranquil and trusting.  Both Missy and Phantom are very affectionate and sweet.  Missy was fearful at first but now is loving and purrs constantly.  Phantom isn’t fond of Missy’s kitten-like energy and playfulness, but he tolerates her.  They are now living in separate rooms and appear to be happier having their own space.  They are spayed/neutered and current on vaccinations.

My name is Izzy.  I’m a deerheaded Chihuahua.  I’m white with beige spots and I weigh 6 pounds.

 Izzy is hoping that her third home will be forever.  Her first owner was an elderly woman who went into a nursing home and her second owner’s landlord has asked that a new home be found.  Izzy is an escape artist who has been found roaming the HOA’s golf course.  She is reportedly crate trained which is good due to her ability to climb baby gates and other fencing.  She is active and curious yet loves to cuddle by your side and watch TV with you on the couch.  She also likes to go for walks.  Izzy jas been around children as young as 3 years old but since she is so small she should not be in a household with children under 6 years of age.  She has been around small dogs but hasn’t been around cats.  Izzy is spayed, current on vaccines and microchipped. 

Hi my name is Jax.  I’m a 15 month old Australian cattle dog. Due to unforeseen circumstances my owner is forced to give me up.  I love my family dearly, but I’m a little shy around new people.   But if the right family were to adopt me, with a little time and patience, I could love you just as much. 

Jax is a  high energy dog and needs to be exercised regularly. He grew up with a miniature pincher even though they play kind of rough they get along just fine.  Jax is neutered and current on his vaccinations.   

Annie was picked up as stray so we do not have any background information on her. Her foster parent reports that she was very timid at first around other small dogs but is now just fine and willing to play. Annie would probably do best as the only dog or with one other since she is very intuned with her humans. Annie is a very sweet girl who likes to sit on laps. Annie is a female chihuahua, about 3 years of age. She is black with some white and weighs about 8 pounds. Annie is spayed, current on shots and microchipped.
