When dealing with a possible feral cat, it's important to be extremely careful. When I saw Kelly Weston's injury, I knew it will turn to be a battle, and I am happy to report that at the very end (of the video) - WALLDO WON!!! BIG TIME!!! Yes, I know Waldo spells with one "L", but this guy was hiding inside a WALL(do). 😄 As I was talking to Kelly, she told me she is the founder of Uplifting Echo - an organization she is building these days, dedicated to providing necessary resources to the unhoused and their pets. They will have their official non-profit status shortly, and I know they will have just as much work as we do as the need for assistance is growing. You can read more about this organization here: https://www.UpliftingEcho.org - I am happy they will be our eyes and ears out on the streets, and I'm sure we will get to work together ❤️ Special thanks to Let Them Be Little for finding Walldo an amazing loving forever home! I am so happy about the change in him, and I love seeing him now so happy! Don't worry... even though he was already adopted, they have many more cats and kittens for adoption here: https://www.LTBLrescue.org These rescues can't happen without your support. If you haven't done so yet, please join the Hope For Paws team with a small donation here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Thank you so much!

Luckily, JoAnn Wiltz and Katie McKittrick were ready with a cheeseburger! I am so happy the man knew to call #HopeForPaws - these things are happening when you're liking, commenting, and sharing our videos - it results in higher engagement which helps us reach more people, and these people call us for help when they see animals in trouble. You can see many more stories here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org I am so excited to report that our friends at #LAAnimalRescue who fostered her, also found Frijoles a loving forever home :-) They have many more animals who are looking for a loving forever home, so please check them out here: https://www.LAAnimalRescue.org Thank you so much for your support! I will post another video in 2 days. Eldad

Just when you will think this rescue is over, you will find out that it's NOT! Mama Jade knew something was wrong, but she didn't know how to tell me that someone stole one of her babies!!! This one will require watching until the end. Life is so hard for homeless animals, and when puppies are added to the equation, it's just a nightmare! This story could have ended terribly in so many ways, but because Stephanie Brooks (who was visiting from New Jersey) knew to call Hope For Paws, this story has an incredible ending. If you can, please join our team with a monthly donation of $5. It may not seem like much to you, but it adds up and that's what enables us to really do amazing things for these animals. For 16 cents a day, you will give so many more animals the happiness you will see at the end of this video - please sign up here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org (and you can also fill an application to adopt Jade or Amber or Amethyst or Torquoise or Diamond or Ruby or Topaz or Emerald). If you can't donate at the moment, please share the video with a friend of a family member who may be able to help us save more lives. Thank you so much! Eldad

This is our first Bird Of Prey rescue video and I am so happy I got to be there for the rescue, visit her during the rehabilitation, and all the way to the releasing back to the wild! The American kestrel is the smallest and most common falcon in North America and I actually never got to meet one until that day - I didn't even know what she was, but our friends on Instagram knew to help me out with that: https://www.instagram.com/hopeforpaws... I am so happy that one of our supporters sent us the special gloves for handling birds of prey... it's like they knew I would need those one day :-) To join our team with a small donation, please visit our website: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Special thanks to South Bay Wildlife Rehab for fostering this baby, for training her on how to survive in the wild, and for inviting me to visit every step of the way. To learn more about their work, please visit http://www.SBWR.org Thank you so much for sharing our videos! Eldad https://www.facebook.com/eldad75

We were not ready for a rescue that day... we were on our way home when one call after another to the #HopeForPaws line changed the whole evening. I am glad Loreta Frankonyte and I happened to be in the area so we could respond as quickly and rush from one location to another. We had to pay a lot of money to the emergency hospital for Catalina's surgery and we have so many cases like this every week. If you can, please take 2 minutes to set up a $5 monthly donation. If many of you will participate, the Hope For Paws team will be able to keep going at full speed and help prevent pain and suffering: https://www.HopeForPaws.org As a thank you for your support, we have a gift for you that is worth quite a lot of money and will give you peace of mind. Please click here to read all about it: https://www.hopeforpaws.org/who_will_...

I am so happy someone knew to call #HopeForPaws for help and I'm glad JoAnn Wiltz was ready to quickly respond! Please join our team with a small donation here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org I don't want to think what would have happened to this family if we didn't get there before the garbage truck did. When you're donating to our organization, you're helping us save so many families... we have so many more videos coming! Thank you so much Pacific Wildlife Project for fostering them and caring for this family! Eldad

This rescue is cool because it has a cool new trick I never used before. It turned to be a little dangerous as we didn't know the mom was stalking us! We are happy to do these rescues during these crazy times, and we just need the support of more people so we can do even more. A $5 donation is equivalent to 17 cents a day... think about it, it's 3 nickles and 2 pennies to save lives!!! Please visit our website and join us as a monthly donor: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Please let me know who is your favorite cat or kitten in this video and PLEASE, watch until THE END so all your questions will be answered... I know many will ask questions that are answered if you are patient like I was over there ;-) We posted NEW rescue videos on our channel - dogs, cats, skunks, possums - it's time to catch up! If you would like to adopt this special family, please contact our friends at the Kitty Bungalow: https://www.KittyBungalow.org Thanks, Eldad

Garfield spent his days at the park, alone and confused because he didn't know where did his owner disappear. Luckily, we got a call on the #HopeForPaws emergency line. Loreta Frankonyte and I headed out, and after a long search for him, one of the construction workers who have been feeding him pointed me in his direction. At the point I was alone, so I waited for Loreta to meet up with me. The plan was for her to close the gate in the far end of that dead-end street, and I would cover the width of the street with my snappy snare. The rest of the story is in this video :-) Thank you so much for donating, sharing, commenting, and liking our videos - it helps us save so many more animals!!! If you would like to become a Hope For Paws member, please join us with a small recurring donation. A $5 donation from a lot of people would make us a stronger team: https://www.HopeForPaws.org We really don't want to spend any time on fundraising... we prefer being out there, with the animals and getting them to the hospital so they won't have to spend another night outside. Please don't think "$5 is insignificant, so why bother?"... it's just not true - I've been doing this for many years and it's just the best when more and more people help us grow. Garfield needs your help one more time with sharing his video because we now need to find him a loving forever home! Please share his video with family and friends and help us complete this amazing circle! Our friends at Balooja's Foundation did an incredible work with getting him out of his shell and it's just amazing to see the difference in him. To apply to adopt Garfield, please contact: www.BaloojasFoundation.com Thank you so much for your support! Eldad To follow Hope For Paws on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopeforpaws...

This video is dedicated to our friends in South Carolina who helped us save Shaggy, Jessie, and Hermione! If the names Kimberly, Todd, Ella, Patty and James are not familiar to you, then you definitely missed two of the most amazing #HopeForPaws rescue videos we EVER posted: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXtJc... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7auXT... I will also post them to our website: https://www.HopeForPaws.org We arrived at this rescue location immediately after rescuing the skunks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzP0q... The couch was due to be picked up by the waste management company, and thankfully, a young girl who knew our YouTube channel called us for urgent help! After the rescue, we continued to the hospital, and from there to the Kitty Bungalow who are now handling their adoption :-) If you would like to adopt any of these family members, please visit: https://www.KittyBungalow.org Thank you so much for sharing our rescue videos - it really helps so many animals out there! Have a great week! Eldad

I wonder how many cats find themselves in this terrible situation where they climb up to an engine to hide or to warm up, and the next thing they know, they are on the freeway at 60 MPH (100 KM/H). Luckily, #Goodyear found a safe spot where no moving parts injured him. JoAnn Wiltz and Katie McKittrick responded to this call and the rest is in this video :-) Thank you for supporting #HopeForPaws and for helping us save so many lives! We really appreciate you for watching, sharing, liking, commenting, not skipping commercials, and donating! Every little thing you can do to help enables us to go out there, day after day, and save these animals off the streets. If you haven't joined us as a member yet, you can do it today here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org If you would like to adopt this special #kitten - please contact our friends at Cats Inc: https://catsatthestudios.com Thanks!!! Eldad

I counted more than TEN ghosts in this rescue video!!! It is best to watch this video on a large screen so you will see all of them. This rescue took many hours to accomplish, but Loreta Frankonyte and I didn't give up on this blue-eyed beautiful husky. I'm so happy people know to call #HopeForPaws for these challenging rescues :-) I am sure many of you are wondering about the gift I promised in this video. Let me just explain it briefly before handing it to you. As we're celebrating Halloween, I am thinking about all the people who passed away from this world and didn't make plans for their pets. This is a terribly sad situation and we would like to make sure this NEVER happens to your pets!!! The way to secure the future of your pets and other family members is of course to write your own will. As a THANK YOU for supporting Hope For Paws, we would like to offer you this service of writing your personal will FOR FREE: https://www.freewill.com/HopeForPaws The whole process is very easy, it takes 20 minutes, and at the end of it, you will have a legal document and the peace of mind you deserve. I know that hundreds of you already completed your wills and it's amazing!!! If you would like to read more about it, I created a blog post here: https://www.hopeforpaws.org/who_will_... Thank you Jennifer Gray for teaching Prince to do tricks in exchange for treats! If you need help with training, definitely talk to her: https://www.SunnyDayAcres.org Have a happy holiday, stay safe and healthy out there and let me know how many ghosts you found on this video. Eldad

If you missed the important video of Axle (the orange kitten in the engine), here is the link for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-Klc... We had a busy weekend this Fourth of July, and we are always happy to help with anything we can! We really couldn't have done it without your support and if you haven't joined us with a donation yet, please help us reach our goal so we can save many more lives: https://www.HopeForPaws.org In two days I will post one of the CrAzIeSt rescues EVER! Loreta ended up with a panic attack in the middle of a rescue - please leave a note to yourself to watch it on Wednesday morning. To adopt Axle, please contact our friends at Room 8 Memorial Foundation: https://www.Room8Cats.org Thank you so much for your support! When you watch, like, and most importantly - share our videos, it helps us so much!!!! Eldad

It's so cool to see how Blue Bayou evolved from a nervous dog to such a happy dog, but now we need YOUR HELP! Please share her video and help us find her a loving forever home. If you can, please become a Hope For Paws member by sending a small donation so we can continue doing this work seven days a week: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Katie and JoAnn handled this rescue beautifully... I know how challenging it is to get the gentle snare over the head of an animal under a car - it's harder than it looks. After the rescue, Blue Bayou continued to L.A. Dog Works in Hollywood so she can learn to socialize with other dogs. She was isolated for so long, and I am so happy she really thrived there. Now Blue Bayou is ready for her loving forever home, and our friends at It's the Pits will handle her adoption. Please contact them directly to apply to adopt her: https://www.itsthepits.org Thank you so much for your support! Eldad

Please suggest names for our rescues here: https://www.hopeforpaws.org/rescue_an... When my phone rings and it's Barbara Vasilaros on the other side, I know I have something challenging coming my way :-) This rescue took place on the first winter night we had here in Los Angeles and it was pretty cold. It took us a while to figure it out, but luckily, Professor was talking back to the kittens on the YouTube video I was playing on my phone. If you would like to adopt this cute little kitten, please contact our friends at Guardian Angel Pet Rescue: https://guardianangelpets.com The dog in the video is Loreto. He was rescued by our main surgeon, Dr. Antonio Pedraza. Loreto had two broken legs, and they are now both fixed! I will post before and after pictures on our FB and IG. If you would like to adopt Loreto (not to be confused with our Loreta), please fill an adoption application on our website: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Thank you so much! Eldad

The third opossum must be the cutest one I have ever seen in my life!!! I know many of you have worried about Loreta after her dog, Bonnie, passed away. She had a really rough week, but your support has been so helpful to her and she felt all the love from you guys. If you missed her post on Instagram, here it is: https://www.instagram.com/xoxoloreta/ Thank you Pacific Wildlife Project for raising these babies so they can be released as young adults with a much greater chance of survival in the wild! If you like our work and if you can, please send a small donation so we can continue rescuing animals. As you could see in this video, it didn't matter to me that the call came in on the weekend, at night, 30 minutes after I took a nice shower... when these animals need us, we're there for them. The link to our website: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Thank you so much for your support! Eldad

This little baby was so lucky when a Good Samaritan noticed him alone in a trash bin in an industrial area! Luckily, the man knew our Hope For Paws rescue videos and knew to call us for help :-) Loreta Frankonyte and I headed out and completed this rescue. Loreta asked me to post a link to her favorite wildlife rescues, so here they are for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxGCD... Thank you Pacific Wildlife Project for fostering this baby along with a few other opossums I rescued. If you want to see their rescue video, please let me know. We have many more rescue videos here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Thank you so much for liking, sharing, and commenting on our videos. Eldad You can follow Hope For Paws here: https://www.instagram.com/hopeforpaws... and you can see more updates on Loreta's page here: https://www.instagram.com/xoxoloreta

This is my first interaction with a raccoon face-to-face, and dealing with a wild raccoon, let alone an injured one is tricky! I am so happy amazing citizens joined me on this mission and helped me complete this mission successfully - I really couldn't have done it without them! My #HopeForPaws team would like to do a lot more rescues out in the field and spend as little time as possible on fundraising for these expensive medical bills. The best way to help us do that is by joining our team with a small monthly donation here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org If everyone watching this video would have donated just $5 a month, we would be able to rescue so many more animals and we will be able to post so many more videos for you to enjoy ;-) Thank you Pacific Wildlife Project for taking care of this baby and for releasing her back to the wild. I am so bummed I didn't get to see it, but I was sick and had to take care of myself so I could go back and continue doing what's most important to me - rescuing the next one! Have a great day! Eldad https://www.hopeforpaws.org/who_will_...

Mama Bear is a super-smart mom... she was not going to make it easy for me to save her and her family! She was hoping I would give up and go home, but here at #HopeForPaws we never give up! Every minute we don't have to spend on fundraising for these animals is a minute we're out there, saving lives. If you can, please join us with a small recurring donation here: https://www.HopeForPaws.org - Just $5 from every viewer would help us save so many more animals! The real hero of this story is Buzz. This kind homeless man lives under this bridge for 6 years now, and when Mama Bear showed up, he invited her to join his little family with his dog Papa Bear. He even allowed her to give birth inside his tent so the puppies won't lay in the dirt. We gave Buzz some money so he can continue taking care of Papa Bear, and also to fix his bicycle. We also brought food, drinks, a couple of tents, and sleeping bags for him and his friends. We get to work quite often with the growing population of homeless people in our state, so if you have a sleeping bag or a tent you are not using, please consider donating them locally or you can send them to us and we will be happy to deliver them. Our mailing address is: Hope For Paws 8950 W. Olympic Blvd No. 525 Los Angeles, CA 90211 We also have an Amazon Wishlist here - it's just terrible that they didn't even have a flashlight... it's not safe for them, and it wasn't safe for me to intrude like this after dark. If you would like to help, I am sure Buzz would really appreciate it: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/registry/... If you have any other suggestions as to what I should add to the list, please let me know... I will be more than happy to drive all the way back and deliver your donated items. Also, I would like to sit with Buzz and show him this video and the difference he made in their lives. Winter is coming, it gets extremely cold at night in the desert, and I just can't imagine how terrible it is to live life like this. It's so sad because I don't understand how would anyone be able to get out of homelessness. I am so happy I took my whole team with me - JoAnn Wiltz, Loreta Frankonyte, and Katie McKittrick because together we were able to accomplish this rescue safely. After an overnight stay at the hospital to make sure everybody is well and healthy, the whole family continued to their foster with our friends at L.A. Animal Rescue! They have so many cute animals for adoption, and you should definitely check them out: https://www.LAAnimalRescue.org We are getting closer to the 5 million subscribers mark and once we do, we will do a HUGE giveaway! Please share this video with your family and friends on social media and help us get to many new people who may have never seen our videos. One last thing! I have a gift that I would like to give you today! The link I will share in a second will enable you to write your own will - for free: https://www.FreeWill.com/HopeForPaws I know it's a little bit of a scary subject, but please try it... the whole process takes 20 minutes and you will see that it will give you peace of mind knowing you have a legal document that will ensure the future of your kids and your pets should something unexpected happens to you. Please feel free to share this free gift with anyone you want... this is free for everyone to use! Thank you so much! Eldad

We had no chance of accomplishing this mission successfully, but all of a sudden, help arrived out of nowhere!!! The chance of this specific kind of help to present itself at the right moment has the same likelihood for getting stuck by lightning! Please watch until the end and share this video so we can find Beethoven a loving forever home! If you haven't done so yet, please join our team with a $5 monthly donation so we can continue doing this work for these animals who would die without us: https://www.HopeForPaws.org Thank you so much! Eldad

This rescue story has so much more than you'll see on the video, so please visit our blog and PD and read the whole story: https://www.HopeForPaws.org/injured_d... Our friends at L.A. Animal Rescue found her an amazing home, and her adopting family started an Instagram account for her - it is a MUST SEE: https://www.instagram.com/pipudingbat/ ❤️ Thank you so much! Eldad

Poor Jax was so scared, and in the heat of the moment, he managed to bite JoAnn Wiltz. Working together with Katie McKittrick they got him to the hospital and then they learned what was really happening with him. Jax recovered really well from the surgery and even though he lost a leg, he is now actually so much more comfortable. We have to pay for about 10 surgeries EVERY WEEK and as you can imagine, it costs thousands of dollars! If you can, please join us with a small donation and help us get to 20 surgeries a week! We would LOVE to be able to help more animals :-) https://www.HopeForPaws.org Thank you so much to our friends at L.A Animal Rescue for finding Jax such a perfect home! They have many more cute animals for adoption - please check them out here: https://www.LAAR.org Please share and help us raise awareness. Thanks! Eldad

Scooter and Dottie have their own account on TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMJhyyfeX/ Rescues like this are possible only thanks to your support!
