L.A. on Cloud9

UPDATE 4/27 1:35PM: We have to continue with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds for a few more days to give Fatz the opportunity to see if he has permanent or temporary nerve damage preventing him from urinating and defecating on his own. UPDATE 4/26 10:30 pm Fatz is still not urinating on his own. Temperature is normal now and appetite is good, so making some progress. Dr wants to wait another day to see if he will begin urinate on his own. He is resting comfortably. ... Please say a prayer for Fatz. His owners are super sad but hopeful that this will fix itself. Still need donations to help this young guy. UPDATE 4/25 10:32pm: Fatz has a broken tail which needs amputation and a break at the femur joint and will need surgery. Before we proceed there is a possible more severe issue. He has a high temperature of 105 and he is unable to urinate on his own. The vet wants to wait a day to see if the bladder issue is due to the pain that he is in or if he has nerve damage from spinal injury. They have expressed his bladder and have him on pain meds and IV fluids for the evening. Please pray for Fatz that he is able to urinate on his own tonight.

Today was a great day for L.A. on Cloud9. We went back to our roots at MacArthur Park. The community needs us back there. The homelessness there is out of contr...ol. We came with a light load of 225 sack lunches and Gatorade and they were literally gone in less than an hour. We need to gear up for a park event. We need the community’s help and support. Please like and share today’s post to get awareness out to our supporters. Thank you @hollywoodfoodco for the donation of lunches. Give without expecting and you will live without regret- @Cl9udia

Thank you for the daily support from our donors! Deliveries like this one brighten our day. It means one more homeless person will receive temporary shelter from the weather in a tent and a dozen people can have the opportunity to bush their teeth and feel good for a moment.

KD the kitty had surgery last night to repair his ear AND he was neutered. We are only half way there to cover his bill. Please keep sharing.

URGENT! SOS! WE NEED HELP!! Our last stop on our outreach today we have a cat who was hit by a car and needs to be seen immediately. We need funds to help this ...poor kitty. We previously helped him a few months ago getting him neutered. His name is Fatz and belongs to our homeless friends that we outreach. They were in tears when we pulled up. He was hit on Friday and when they got him in the car to take him in, he freaked out and escaped and was missing for two days. They thought the worst had happened. We prayed with them last night and he dragged himself home today and now he needs our help. Please help Fatz get the medical care he needs. You may make a monetary donation to our website www.laoncloud9.org , or to out PayPal [email protected] (note donation for FATZ) or our Giving Fund PayPal.com/us/fundraiser/charity/2087604, or Venmo @laoncloud9 See more

Help is needed for this poor kitty. A good Samaritan found him injured and in need of emergency care for his ear. It seems to have an abscess from an injury and... needs surgery. Our vet funds are very low and the only way we can help is with your help. He is not neutered so we’d like to be able to neuter him at the same time he goes under anesthesia to get the ear repaired.

WE ARE IN NEED OF MENS CLOTHING! We picked up 300 lunches today from our friends at @hollywoodfoodco and met up with our volunteers and assembled bags. We then started out our day passing out lunches and hygiene in South Central LA where many need clothing, blankets and shoes. We proceeded to MacArthur Park and blessed many with lunches and water. ... We are asking for men’s clothing as many have nothing since the cleanup last week. Drop off location is 17540 S Denver Ave, Gardena CA 90248. Mon-Thurs 8-5pm. You may text Dana at (310) 993-7001 for any questions or special drop off times. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!!!

We had quite the day on Friday. First we went back to our roots at MacArthur Park and passed out 200 hot meals and ended our outreach in South Los Angeles at our regular encampments to pass out the remaining 20 lunches to our hungry friends there. Upon arrival we noticed many sitting on the curbs with nothing. The city did a sweep, and although they are not supposed to take their shelter or personal items, they did just that. They left these people with nothing. Very few wer...e able to keep their stuff. One older gentleman, Cuba and his dog Muneca , that we’ve been helping for quite some time, was telling us how they woke him up and told him to step outside not allowing him to gather anything and took everything he owned including his medication. We could not leave them all like this. We left and purchased many tents and sleeping bags and came back with clothing and set up temporary housing for every one of them. Thank you to all our donors who help make this possible. The love and gratefulness from these people with nothing made it all worthwhile.

Holidays on the streets are hard for those without a home. The people we outreach make it so worthwhile. The simplest of gestures means so much to them. They are more grateful than some with a roof.

Thank you to @spoofdawgrescue for the always over abundance of food for the animals.
