2022 Update:
Dear 4Ever Foundation and WVG Friends and Family,

In 2015 when Dr. Mike Zareski took the lead on the nonprofit 4Ever Foundation, the mission was “to provide a loving, caring, and nurturing environment for homeless pets in our community while we connect them with their 4Ever homes.” To that end, our 4Ever cats lived cage-free in our trailer building located in the Western Vet Group parking lot where they were loved, cared for, and socialized by our wonderful volunteers Dana and Greg, and our WVG staff.

Today, we are so pleased to share that all the 4Ever cats have been matched with their 4Ever homes. One of those “homes” is just across the parking lot where Tyson has decided to move in as our WVG clinic cat. Check him out striking a pose under “Resident Staff” on the WVG website: https://westernvetgroup.com/staff/.

We have big plans for the 4Ever Foundation. The trailer building has been donated, and we will soon expand the name of the foundation to the Michael Zareski 4Ever Foundation. Funds raised will always continue to benefit animals by providing financial assistance towards medical care for pets in need. And, over time, it is our goal to also expand Mike’s foundation to support efforts close to his heart and ours, including the Skid Row Running Club, ocean education and surfing organizations for Los Angeles kids who have never seen the beach, and widows and children who have lost a parent.

Mike’s far-reaching empathy and compassion are an affirmation of the human capacity for good and grace in our daily moments. Please continue to honor him in your interactions, friendships, and relationships with both furry and non-furry beings.

Best,
