Living under wooden pallets for month and too scared to let humans help.

Kirby needed help. He knew it, but he was even too scared of the women who fed him for months... he would just take the food, and run back to his safe spot. Luckily, someone suggested "Call Hope For Paws" and JoAnn Wiltz was there to pick up that call.
JoAnn brought a cheeseburger, so Kirby wanted to hear more about her proposal for surrendering, and before he managed to blink, JoAnn got him!
If you can, please donate a cheeseburger today... it will help send us on the next rescue mission, and will help us pay for the veterinary care: www.HopeForPaws.org
Kirby was matted, filthy, had burrs and foxtails stuck to him everywhere, and he needed a complete makeover. The team at CARES confirmed he was healthy, JoAnn groomed him, and our friends at L.A. Animal Rescue offered to foster him.
If you would like to adopt him, please contact them directly here: www.LAAnimalRescue.org
Please share his video so we can find him a loving forever home.
Thank you so much,
Eldad

@@annjohnson5040 if you live in the Los Angeles area, the Hope For Paws team might be able to help you but I would defer to someone with that team to respond accordingly. If not, I would suggest contacting an animal rescue shelter in your local community for assistance.
