Feeling Blessed

Beautiful Lucy received a very special gift the other day.

With the help of her favorite person here at the Sanctuary, Lucy opened her package to find a beautiful prayer blanket, toy and heartfelt written card.

On behalf of Lucy all of us here at Paws Give Me Purpose Inc., want to thank Fur Angel Blessing Blanketeers and most especially to Lyn Minervini for making Lucy her blanket.

We know that all the love and prayers you have all showered upon Lucy will be answered as she heals mentally, physically, spiritually, and begins a wonderful new chapter in her life filled with nothing but love, happiness, caring and kindness in our Sanctuary.

Thank you for thinking of Lucy and making her part of your FABB family!

In Memory Of Oscar

It is with deepest sadness we inform all of you that little Oscar peacefully crossed to Rainbow Bridge last night in his sleep.

At almost 20 years of age, Oscar was a very special little gentleman who stole the hearts of many; he made friends with humans and dogs alike wherever he would go. 

Oscar had a very special way of snuggling and literally hugging his people, and would lay his head on your shoulder and give the sweetest little kisses. His nickname here at Paws Give Me Purpose Sanctuary was “Goose” or “Goosey” because he would make the most adorable little honking noises when he would get excited. While this sound was actually due to his collapsed trachea, it truly became such a cute part of his personality we came to know. Oscar never let this honk get him down as he excitedly trotted behind his favorite people like the little goose he was. 

He loved playing with his doggie friends and would welcome every new resident with such happiness, wagging his little tail as if to let them know everything is now going to be ok. He would be so excited to have a new friend, he always wanted to play with them right away! 

Oscar was one of the sweetest, most gentle souls we have ever encountered and we will never be able to understand why anyone could have ever tossed him away.

With every loss we face here in Sanctuary, our hearts break a little bit more; so much so that we often wonder if there is anything left to break. Oscar took a huge piece of everyone’s heart with him and has become a big part of ours. 

You will always live on in our hearts Oscar – you were taken too soon. We were blessed to have known and been able to love you with our whole hearts!

We would like to acknowledge Oscar’s generous lifetime sponsor, Elizabeth, for assisting us with his lifetime care and helping give us the ability to provide him with everything he ever needed and then some. On behalf of Oscar, we thank you from the bottom of his little heart and ours. It is supporters like yourself that are the driving force behind what we do. 

Thank you to all of our followers and supporters for caring and for being a support to us during this difficult time. We hope you see the legacy Oscar has left behind and understand why the work we do here is so rewarding and so important.
