Prayer Requests for Joey the Dog and Snickers the Cat

From Shelli: Hello.
First of all thank you so much for creating this wonderful blog. As pet owners we cherish our pets like our children.

Please pray for my one and a-half year old Maltese mix "Joey." He has been in the animal hospital for the last two days with Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia. He is a little guy with the most precious face and sweet eyes. He has undergone a blood transfusion in hopes that his red blood cell count goes back up to normal. Please send prayers if you can for his healthy recovery.

Also, we have had a beautiful Calico cat named "Snickers" for about 10 years. She has been missing for about two months. She used to go in and out of her cat door with much freedom for years. The last time we saw her was around the beginning of July. Please send prayers for her healthy and safe return.

Thank you and I am hoping I am not asking too much. I am sending blessings to all pets and their owners as well.

Urgent Prayer Request for Waldo the Cat

From Heather:
My cousin's cat, Waldo, has been missing since 8/23/2010.

There have been some problems and thinly veiled threats from a neighbor who did not like the cats being let out to hunt and occasionally crossing over the property line. Because of this, Waldo and the other cats in the house had been kept indoors. However, Waldo snuck out and has not been seen since.

It is not like him to not come back to the house, so everyone is fearing the worst.

I would appreciate it if you could add Waldo to the prayer list for missing cats.

Thank you.

Prayer Request for a Dog and Missing Puppies in Spain



From Averil: Prayer Request

I still have not found my dog and her puppies which disappeared on Monte Pego, Alicante, Spain on 17 July 2010. I say dog and puppies as she was ready to give birth at the time of her disappearance. I need now as much publicity as possible. I fear that she has been stolen by a German woman I know although yesterday, someone told me they saw 2 young boys/men selling really small puppies at Pedreguer market last Sunday.


I have attached some images of Cleo with this e-mail but also a document with a description of her and on that document there is a larger photograph of a dog that resembles her greatly. This is the only photograph I could find in the internet. She is also wearing the same blue collar but Cleo´s tail is not white.

I need to know if I should carry on with my search or if it is futile. I can do energy work but I am too connected to the situation so I cannot do it for myself.


Many thanks for your prayers,


All the best,

Prayer Request for Frisco

From Cat: Please add us to your prayer list with a special prayer for tomorrow - Thursday 26th. Our sweet Frisco is having an ultrasound done on his eye and possible aspiration (needle biopsy) if there is sign of a tumor there. He was recently treated for nasal cancer and I am very worried that the cancer may now be there. Please pray that it is not a tumor and that he does well if he has this aspiration, since they will have to sedate him to do this.

Thanks so much!

Praise Report on Scrappy the Cat

From Sharon:
Just wanted to send out a very big thank you for everyone's prayers. Luckily, our story has a happy ending. After 5 days of searching for Scrappy out in a completely wooded area. He wandered onto the porch of a distant neighbor. They fed him and held him till we could pick him up. Needless to say, it was a very happy reunion and even our golden retriever has been acting like herself again!

Please thank everyone for me and I will continue to pray for all the missing, sick and hurt pets out there as well.

Have a very blessed weekend!

Prayer Request for Tsunami the Cat

From Tony:
Tsunami our Siamese mix and my Wife's Baby, Ran out of the House yesterday
Friday 8-20-10 at approximately 9:30am..

He is approximately 1 1/2 years old and is a house cat. He has two other grown Cats that have adopted him as a little Brother and is treated like a king so there is no reason for him to run away??

He is my Wife's precious, and she is completely Heartbroken. He snuck out a few weeks ago also, but came back later that night.He is extremely smart and even plays catch, so I know he knows where home is.

This time it has been 24hours. We live in a culdesac and quiet street. We are distraught and depressed.

Please Pray for him to return home quickly, and safely as I cannot console my Wife.

Prayer Request for Smoker the Cat, et al.

From Eva:
Hello, I came across your beautiful website, thank you for the prayers and help.

I can't stop crying. I lost my cat Smoker a month ago and almost lost my other beautiful cat thank God he returned ... recently other people are losing their pets too and we're worried that they are being taken or lured and trapped. We are so worried that they are being mistreated. We have walked all over the neighborhood and suspect someone who is hoarding, or trapping or worse. We are in the Los Angeles area in a hilly section.

Please kindly pray that Smoker, Kasper, Freida and the other beautiful cat and the little doggie and others are safe and hopefully will return home unharmed very soon. I am hoping for beacons of light to guide them safely.

Smoker is a solid gray smokey color, Kasper is a main coon, Freida is tortoise shell, there's a little white doggie and another beautiful tabby cat - we are all worried and hope that more don't go missing.

Thank you so much for your prayers.

Prayer Request for Coco the Dog

Prayer Request for Daisy Mae the Cat's Owner

From Lucie:
Please pray for my dear departed Daisy Mae, that I lost last September 25. I have been hurting ever since she died. Although I have two other kitties that I love very much. I am afraid that no other cat can ever take her place in my heart. I know my late departed Rocky is taking care of her as he is up there with her. I am just waiting for my time whereas I will join her. I have that poem about the paradise for pets and people. I had Daisy cremated and she will be buried with me John, Frank, my other two cats, and me when the time comes. Right now I just suffered too many losses
God Bless,
Please keep Lucie in your prayers as she grieves the loss of her beloved pet.

Urgent Prayer Request for Peaches the Cat

Friends, today I found a prayer request which was left in April but which I did not see until today. Please keep this little cat in your prayers that she is found safe and sound. Thank you so much.

From 4PetSake:
That is so great!! :D

I have lost a cat too, it is very depressing, so please pray for Peaches. <3

Urgent Prayer Request for Chester the Cat

From Dawn:
Please pray for my sweet Chester. He is a pollydactal (6 toes)Maine coon cat that the lord sent to me 11 years ago.He had been hit by a car,had a broken hip,crushed right back foot and a broken nose with several teeth missing and had survived and healed amazingly well even before he came to my house,He is handicapped because of his back foot and leg but he does not know it. He's a survivor too even though he has had several accidents besides the first one including lots of fights with cats that wander our neighborhood and come into our yard.

Which brings me to my request.A big cat from down the street came in our yard and Chester tried to protect his domain but got the worse end of the deal. He has several bites on his shoulder that got infected and he was unable to walk on his front right leg and foot. The vet gave him a shot of antibiotics but he has had a severe reaction to the medication and now throws up constantly and can not keep anything down.He keeps on giving him IV fluids and anti nausea meds but its not working. I've had to give him watered down prescription food in a syringe and shoot it down his throat but he can't keep it down either and the vet isn't even sure whats wrong with him except he thinks he's had a reaction to the meds he's taken.He hasn't eaten real food in almost a week and if he can't keep food down tomorrow,they'll put him in the hospital and put some kind of feeding tube in him.They think he may have liver damage from the antibiotics and from not eating for so long and there may be nothing they can do for him. We love our Chester so and have already prayed so hard for his healing. I was glad to find your website and know the extra prayers will help so much.
Since I know you all pray for these pets in need, I will stop placing the usual reminder here. Thank you all!

Update on Kuma the Cat

From Angeleen:
Kuma has been steadily improving. After spending two nights at the kitty hospital, Kuma is so much healthier! I was able to bring him home Friday afternoon, for he was stable enough and no longer in a High Risk Condition.
He sure has been eating a lot! I think he really missed his moist Friskies food. :) After resting and sleeping, as well as eating, his strength has already doubled. He is almost back to his normal vigor. He is starting to act rambunctious and is asking to even play again! :)

Kiko is so happy to have her brother back as well.

I want to thank everyone for offering their thoughts, prayers, and intentions towards Kuma!
Thanks everyone for your prayers.

Prayer Request for Scrappy the Cat

From Sharon:
I am so sorry to bother you, but I found your blog after looking for prayers for lost pets.
Would you mind asking others if they could pray as well for my lost 8 year old male cat named Scrappy. Scrappy is an indoor cat and somehow got out about 1 day 1/2 ago. We live in the woods and have searched by foot and car everywhere. We put fliers in our neighbors mail boxes and we have heard and found nothing. I have been sick for 7 years. Scrappy is a very wonderful and sensitive friend/companion. He lays on my tummy and stays nearby especially when I am very sick. I would appreciate any prayers for him to be protected while out there and for a safe return.
Thank you soooo much!
Please keep Scrappy and all our lost pets in your prayers. Please keep their owners in your prayers too.

Update on Gabby the Cat

From Alan and Dale:
After coming around when her kidneys starting failing, for the second time in a year, Gabby seems to be going downhill again. It has been 3 weeks since we took her to the Vet. She is not eating a lot, she doesn't seem to like the special food from the Vet. and not drinking a lot.

Please keep her in your prayers.

Thank you so much.
Please keep praying that Gabby gets better soon. We asked for the intercession of St. Martin de Porres and Bl. Seelos to heal her and all our critically ill pets.

Urgent Prayer Request for Kuma the Cat

From Angeleen:
I have a very ill cat, and I need some spiritual prayers and support.

I have two dear ragdoll cats that are my children. Recently my six year old ragdoll son, (Tasuki), passed away two months ago to a heart disease known as fHCM (feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy).

During this time my 2 1/2 year old ragdoll daughter, Kiko, was grieving and lonely, so I seeked out to find her another companion. The breeder I adopted her from didn't have any kittens, and wouldn't until this fall at the soonest, so I expanded my search. I came across the pure breed cat rescue, which is based in Wisconsin, and by chance fell in love with a male ragdoll, named Kuma, who just arrived the same day I was doing my search.

I ended up being able to be the one to adopt Kuma, and brought him home on July 14th. He was a spunky, energetic, and a lovable tease. He quickly bonded with me, and my daughter Kiko. He was very healthy, until Aug. 11th.

At three am on Aug. 11th he suddenly started vomiting. I rushed him to my pet clinic at 8am to seek medical help. He stayed that day and over night for testing and to receive IV fluids for dehydration. On Aug. 12th, my doctor did not have the ability to do anything more advanced medically, so she referred me to a larger pet hospital / clinic which is located in a larger city near where I live.

I pray that Kuma will survive and live many more healthy years. I hope and pray whatever is causing him his illness is not fatal. I also pray if it is something viral and / or parasite related, Kiko will not contract it and become ill from the three weeks they have been together.

I would appreciate any extra support in prayers, thoughts, intentions, etc. towards Kuma's health, hospital stay, and healing recovery. And for Kiko too, I keep telling her immune system to be a strong fighter. :)

Thank you for your time,
Please keep Kuma and all our seriously ill pes in your prayers for a speedy recovery.

Prayer Request for All Animals in Need of a Loving Home

From our friend Kieran:
I have been meaning to write to you for quite awhile now but have had my hands pretty full with Schonda and a recent addition Echo. As per the email below you will remember that I asked you to pray for Schonda and I am happy to say that she is okay and whilst we still never established what was wrong, we are just happy to see her well again. Of course we will keep close watch of her but I am just so grateful to see her happy. About a month later my family and I came to the decision we needed to find a companion for Schonda, as whilst we were giving her all the love and attention she needed, we felt that she still missed the love of a companion. So we went back to the shelter and got another little mini foxy x called Echo and whilst approximately 3 years younger then Schonda they seem to compliment each other. All I can say is they are absolutely smitten with each other and it just warms my heart to see the sadness start to disappear from their eyes. Of course I dont think it will ever disappear as sadly 8 and 5 years of abuse will do that to a dog but to see them trust, love,play and wag their tails again is such a joy. Indeed I believe that Taz and Vlooi sent them to me, as they have brought love and happiness back to my heart when I was certain it was gone after the loss of my precious Taz and Vlooi. Indeed adopting a rescue dog is very rewarding and whilst challenging at times as each rescue animal has issues, I like to think that im doing it in memory of my Taz and Vlooi and I like to know that I am showing these two lovely little creatures that regardless of their past we love them and they are a part of our family. For it saddens me to think that some dogs live their lives never knowing what its like to be loved or part of a family and so I am so grateful that I can prevent this from happening with these two rescue dogs. Therefore I pray that all animals know they are loved and know what its like to be part of a family and I continue to pray for my Taz and Vlooi who will always have my heart. It is nearly 5 months since I lost both of them and the pain is still so raw as my babies were something special and they will always be part of me. Otherwise Esther I pray that you are well and that God Bless you for being that source of comfort for so many animal lovers.

God Bless,
Kieran lost both her beloved pets and was so sad when she met Schonda a very abused little dog. As you can see her story has a happy ending. Please pray for all the animals in need of a good and loving home. Thank you.

Prayer Request for Worsie the Dog

From Cheryl:
Please pray for Worsie, a 3year old Male Dachshund, who went missing on Friday 30 July 2010. I really miss him and dearly love him. I pray that God keeps him safe and helps me find him safe and sound. Thank you.
Please keep Worsie and all our missing pets in your prayers. We ask for St. Anthony to intercede for them and to bring them home safe and sound.

Prayer Request for Pollyrosary the Cat

From Susan:
My little four year old cat (Pollyrose for short) was a rescue who had chronic recurring eye inflammations for the first couple years of life. She has not had any for the last couple of years but her right eye is getting cloudy. Please pray for her good eyesight.
Please keep Pollyrose and all our pets suffering from eye ailments in your need. We ask for St. Lucy's intercession in healing Pollyrose, if it be God's Will.

From Daryl Lynn:
I am seeking a prayer request for my lost cat Tabitha, also know as Tabby. I have had her as a baby and she is very much a part of my family.

She has been gone for 3 days now with no sign of her. This is the first time she has been gone this long. I am keeping hope that she is out there and just needs some direction to get back home. Please pray for her safe return and I will do the same.

God is good!

Prayer Request for Boo the Cat

From Theresa:
Our dear cat, Boo, has gone missing.

Boo adopted us last September. At 4.5 lbs and 6 months old she came inside to live with us and had very little interest in going back outside, until the last few weeks.
It appears that she slipped out one evening last week and we haven't seen her since.

She was a treasured gift, and we'd love to have her back. Still, my prayer is that she is safe somewhere, and not having to survive on her own again.

Thanks for your prayers.
Please keep Boo and all our missing pets in your prayers.

Prayer Request for Ozzie the Cat

From Beth:
I hoping you will post a prayer and also pray for Ozzie. Ozzie was born in the wild and has lived outdoors most of his two years of life but has been somewhat domesticated. His owners have moved out of state and he was adopted by Jeff (last Thursday) who took him home. He did not return last night to eat and we are not sure where he is. We pray that he is safe and will return to his new home.

Thank you for this wonderful site and God bless you.
Please keep Ozzie and all our missing pets in your prayers. We ask for St. Anthony's intercession.

Prayer Request for Shmuel the Cat

From Claud:
Our cat, Shmuel, has been missing since yesterday. Please pray that he's safe and healthy and that no harm will come his way, especially this rainy season. Please pray that he will be able to use his inner cowboy skills and survive. Please pray that, if God wills it, we'll be able to find him or someone with a sweet heart would return him to us. It's been two days and I miss him sooo much already. :'(
Please keep Shmuel and all our missing pets in your prayers.
