Aida has been rescued, here is what we found
Aida is a georgous dog. Part German & Golden, very friendly, good with other dogs and all people.
After giving her a once over we discovered that she recently had an imbedded collar. The collar was removed prior to her being turned into PAWS Atlanta, but some scabbing had started to occur. She's doing well, just as happy as the day is long. Everybody is not meant to have a pet and it's better off that she was turned in to us.
She'll be available for adoption in late May.

Engine kittens make it safely to PAWS Atlanta
She drove to the church under the impression that she was the only one going with her.
When she got out of the car at church she found out otherwise.
She had two little stowaways that had curled up next to the engine for shelter. What a surprise to find these two, dirty little kittens screaming from underneath the hood of her car!
The girls were filthy, caked with oil and debris that had been kicked up from the movement of the car.
Filthy, but alive.
The girls were given a very long and special soapy bath. They were a little tired at first, but are now bouncing back to the happy, active three month old kittens they are.
They'll be spayed in the second week of May and then available for adoption around the third week.

Sinatra's Xrays have come back
This is an xray of Sinatra's leg. The leg is the more solid bit in the middle, while the outline of the cast is the outer most white lines.
The finger in the picture is pointing to the area where the break is healing itself.
About an inch and a half up from that you'll see a very faint line going parallel in the bone. We hope that is not a hairline fracture, but we'll have to watch little Sinatra to see how he gets around once the cast is removed.
