Maxwell: Back in the USA and Friends

Maxwell: Back in the USA and Friends Both have been adopted and truly HOME! Max will now host the page! Hi, we're Maxwell and Tigger! We once lived happily in Stratford, CT with our dad, Brad.

Maxwell and Tigger, originally from Stratford, CT, are back home in Connecticut from Kenya, Africa where they were left stranded after their owner died unexpectedly in the summer of 2023. He found love and moved, with us soon following, to Kenya, Africa in 2021. Our dad came back to the States in 2023 for surgery, and unexpectedly passed away in a motorcycle crash leaving us stranded in Africa. We

were originally adopted from two different groups: Zen Dog CT and In the Nic of Time, which is no longer in operation. Zen Dog CT was Tigger's rescue and took responsibility to get us both back home to Connecticut. We stayed with the wonderful people at the Kenya SPCA in Mombasa for a few months while SO many people back in the US helped to fundraise and share our story so that we could come home. It took a village, and the village came through! We thank each and every one of you who donated, shared and followed our story--each one of you helped us get home! In early March of 2024, we were finally cleared to fly home. The Small Five Animal Clinic picked us up from the KSPCA and drove us to the airport in Nairobi for our 15 hour plane ride on Kenyan Airways into JFK in New York. Soon after arrival, we moved into our foster home in Milford, CT. We've been decompressing and getting used to our daily routine. It's much cooler here than Africa, and we like that! Foster mom takes us for daily walks and we have our very own special bedroom with a surplus of sleeping areas to choose from; after all, we're seniors and we like to rest! We've also got a fenced yard and patio with kuranda beds to lounge on--what could be better?! What COULD be better is a forever home! We can be adopted together or separately as we are not bonded. Although we've been through so much together, we are not the very best of friends--we're two older gentleman who tolerate one another. Please message the page if you'd like more info on our perfect retirement home! In the meantime, we'll be posting pictures and videos of our day-to-day and hope you'll follow along!

Well, Mom took this video this morning. She’s been super busy with lots of stuff, but I wanted to make sure you all knew I got my walkie in—actually 2 today! I had another one before it got dark. I’m spent!🐾~Max

I’m enjoying my after-dinner siesta. Hope everyone had a good day!🍽️😴🐾~Max

❣️Edit: Ernesto has found rescue and is not going yo spend his remaining days at the shelter❣️

‼️PLEASE share Ernesto! He’s been diagnosed with lymphoma and only has a short time to live. With conservative treatment, he may live longer than the expected 1-2 months. Mom fostered a dog with lymphoma from this very shelter and he lived for 6 months—Greg! He was amazing and got to be very best friends with Mom’s dog, Penny. Please share his plight so he can spend his final days in a home where he belongs❣️🐾 He’s located in Newark, NJ.

💔 Ernesto has until August 6th to find a rescue.

Ernesto arrived at our shelter as a lost dog, but it didn’t take long for our veterinary team to realize something wasn’t right. After further testing, Ernesto was heartbreakingly diagnosed with lymphoma and given a life expectancy of just 1–2 months. 😢

We refuse to let his story end in a kennel. Ernesto deserves comfort, love, and peace in his final weeks! We have until August 6th to find a rescue willing to give him the compassion he deserves before it’s time to say goodbye. 🌈

Ernesto is very new to the shelter and has been friendly with everyone he’s met. At this time, we are still learning how he does with other dogs and children.

‼️ If your rescue can help Ernesto spend his remaining time surrounded by kindness and care, please contact our rescue coordinator immediately [email protected]

Today, I’d like to remember my dad, Bradley Moroni. Three years ago today, he was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident in Massachusetts before he could get back to me and Tigger in Kenya. I miss him every day, but I’m thankful for my new life with Mom. Please keep my dad in your thoughts today!☮️🕊️🐾😇~Max
