Saying Goodbye to Gia: A Message from the Founder

I find myself with a heavy heart today, and I want to share a personal note with you all. My dear Gia, my loyal and loving companion, left this world just last week. We did everything we could to save her, but in the end, it was beyond our control. Her absence has left an ache in my heart that words cannot fully capture.

In my role as the founder and executive director of Famous Fido Rescue, I witness countless stories of animals abandoned, unloved, and in dire need of care. It’s a painful reality that stings even more now with the emptiness of losing my own beloved Gia. I often find myself wishing for just one more day with her, one more chance to shower her with love and affection.

It breaks my heart to see others, who are perfectly capable of caring for their animals, choosing to abandon them or neglect them. I can’t help but think of how I would have given anything for a little more time with my girl. And so, I implore you, if you have a furry friend by your side, cherish them, love them, and never take a single moment with them for granted. Let my experience with Gia be a reminder that our time with these incredible creatures is precious and far too short.

In memory of Gia, and in honor of all the animals who need our help, I ask for your continued support for Famous Fido Rescue. Your generosity ensures that we can be there for these animals when they need us most, giving them the love, care, and second chances they deserve.

With heartfelt gratitude and a touch of sorrow,

Gloria Lissner

Founder and Executive Director
