Our Ambassadors

Fiona

Ambassador - Feline Leukemia

This site is dedicated to all the little ones out there who need extra natural resources to help them thrive. Fiona is the perfect ambassador and example of what our holistic approach desires to do for our pets in need.

Fiona’s story: Fiona was rescued at 8 weeks of age after already enduring unimaginable abuse. Our little Fiona had been used as a front for a fake cat rescue and she, along with 100’s of other kittens and cats, were shuttled across the border of Mexico and sliced open for “spaying/neutering” over and over, crudely stitched and then brought back so their carriers could be used for drugs. Sadly, many of the cats did not make it. Little Fiona was taken by Stephanie Grace, founder of Naturally Happy Pet.

The vet that looked after Fiona said she had already been cut open at least three times. The tiny 8-week-old kitten had ear and eye infections, pneumonia, and a severe abdominal infection that prevented her from keeping food down. She was dying. Stephanie was told to put her to sleep but she refused. She took her the next day for a second opinion. The news was even direr. Fiona also had Feline Leukemia and Stephanie was told the little kitten would surely die within a few days. Stephanie began making her own food and giving supplements and enzymes to get nutrition in Fiona. Two weeks later the vet was amazed the little kitten was alive but gave her no longer than a few months. Two months in and the vet said she would most likely not last the year.
Our dear Fiona is 8 years old as of February 2022 and is healthy and thriving. Fiona will always live with Feline Leukemia and is our ambassador to show the world what the right holistic approach can do for so many cats living with this deadly disease.

Elsa

Ambassador – Feral Cat

Elsa’s story: Elsa is named after the lion in born free that was one of the first rehabilitated lions released back into the wild. She was still a young 12-week-old kitten when rescued. Eight weeks is the cut-off behaviorally for most true feral cats (zero experience with humans) to completely bond to humans. Elsa came to us with a severe back injury and was in a lot of pain. Her level of fear of humans was heightened due to the pain of that injury. It took over a week for her to come out of hiding and another month before she would allow herself to be gently cuddled. It was over a year before she would allow herself to be picked up and held.

It is said that when a feral animal bonds to a human that the bond is greater than a domestic born. Elsa became puppy-like and followed her human around and would only eat in her human’s presence. The patience needed for this little one to trust seems long, but she was given what was needed. Elsa knows that she has nothing to ever fear again.
Elsa is our ambassador to show the world that with love and plenty of patience a little injured feral will rescue your heart right back.
