Ian Maule, Tulsa World file Facebook Twitter WhatsApp SMS Email Print Save Barbara Hoberock OKLAHOMA CITY — In less than a year, first lady Sarah Stitt has crashed two state vehicles.
On Dec. 17, Sarah Stitt was driving a 2019 black Chevy Suburban when she failed to stop for a traffic signal at N.E. 36th Street and Lincoln Boulevard, according to a collision report.
She collided with 2014 gray Ford with one occupant, according to the collision report.
Stitt was uninjured, but the individual in the second vehicle was taken to the hospital, according to the report. At the time, a DPS spokeswoman said the injuries to the transported individual were minor.
Wrecker services removed both vehicles, according to the report.
The state purchased the vehicle for $56,612, according to the Department of Public Safety. A repair cost was not immediately available, but the state will pay to have it repaired, said Sarah Stewart, a DPS spokeswoman.
The Edmond Police Department on March 6 investigated another accident involving Sarah Stitt.
She was driving a different 2019 black Chevy Suburban when she was on a private drive and attempted to travel westbound on East Second Street, according to an accident report. She failed to yield, the report indicated.
Stitt’s vehicle collided with 2017 Kia Soul with two occupants, the report said.
Both vehicles were driven from the scene with no injuries reported, according to the report.
The repair cost to the state vehicle was $4,070.16 and was paid for by the state, according to the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety.
The state purchased the vehicle at a cost of $40,996.25, according to the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety.
Both vehicles driven by Stitt were part of the state fleet and she received them used, according to the Department of Public Safety.
Neither accident report indicates that Stitt received a citation.
A spokeswoman for the Edmond Police Department said it was up to discretion of the officer to determine if a citation would be issued.
Likewise, Stewart said the Oklahoma Highway Patrol has discretion on issuing citations.
“It is always up to the individual trooper’s discretion investigating the crash whether or not they issue a citation,” Stewart said. “Not all motorists that contribute to a collision get ticketed.”
Both vehicles were equipped with lights, a siren and radio, Stewart said.
“Anyone that is not law enforcement can have those items in their vehicle, they just can’t use them,” Stewart said. “These vehicles are part of a fleet of vehicles for DPS. They are equipped that way so they can be moved around and are always ready to be used by a trooper.”
According to state law, the public safety commissioner shall provide personal security and protection, transportation and communications capabilities for the governor, the governor’s immediate family, and the lieutenant governor.
The law authorizes the commissioner to provide necessary communications equipment even if they are not on state property or in state vehicles.
“The Commissioner of Public Safety is hereby authorized to purchase or lease and equip motor vehicles for the use of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor,” according to state law. “The purchase or lease price of any such motor vehicles and equipment shall be paid from any appropriation for motor vehicles made to the Department of Public Safety.”
Stewart said Stitt can drive the state vehicles while she is on state business.
Gov. Kevin Stitt’s office was asked to comment on the accidents.
“Like any husband, the governor is relieved that no one was seriously injured and appreciates the concern Oklahomans have shown the first lady,” said Charlie Hannema, a Stitt spokesman.

Lily In June, our cruelty investigator picked up a thin dog with no fur at all. We can’t imagine the pain poor Lily must have been in for so long; just touching her skin made it bleed. She was covered in scabs, bright pink and had many infected areas of her skin. While she had very little energy, Lily was a survivor and has been working hard on her health over these past 7 months. She is finally ready to find her forever family and begin moving on from her difficult first few years of life.
Currently in a foster home that reports Lily is a “huge source of joy and amusement,” this shy but sweet girl is flourishing. She is well on her way to being potty- and crate-trained. She hasn’t had an accident in her foster home in weeks and goes easily into her crate but does bark for a few minutes before settling down. Lily enjoys snuggling, chewing on hard bones and now has the energy for going on long walks.
Lily has played with other dogs and very much enjoys wrestling and rumbling hard, so much so that she can find it hard to stop playing when other dogs are around! She would do well in an only dog home or in a home with other dogs who enjoy a good hard romp and humans who could be proactive in reinforcing calm behavior when everyone is together.
Lily is around 3 years old, weighs 65 pounds, is heartworm positive and has not yet been spayed. As a big girl who can occasionally be jumpy mouthy when excited, she is looking for a home without children younger than 12 years of age. Having an intact animal in your home is an added responsibility that potential adopters should consider. She has been vaccinated, microchipped and is current on parasite prevention.
Because of the long road to recover that Lily is still on, she is being offered as a foster to adopt candidate. This comes with many benefits, such as access to our dog trainer and clinic, for Lily’s needs! The Tulsa SPCA will continue to treat Lily medically until she is healthy enough to be spayed, after which the adoption will be finalized. We will also soon begin treatment for her heartworms, at no cost to her adopter.
Let us know if you are Lily’s happily ever after!

Mr. Jiji Mr. Jiji is a handsome 7-year-old male domestic short hair cat weighing about 13 pounds. He is black with tuxedo markings and bright green eyes. Jiji is an indoor-only cat who always uses his litter box. He loves watching birds, squirrels and bunnies from his sunny indoor window perch and enjoys being petted and spending time with his people.
He is a social butterfly and very playful — he loves people and other animals, especially small cat-friendly dogs. When he was a kitten, his best friend was a bearded dragon! Because of this we think Mr. Jiji would do well in a wide variety of homes!
Mr. Jiji has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, FELV/FIV tested (negative) and is current on parasite prevention.

Diego and Dora Diego and Dora were found as strays together, and we don’t know if they were raised together (they aren’t very old), but they are bonded and seem to need each other!
Beautiful Dora is about a year old. Even being out on her own with her friend Diego, she has such a sweet, happy and easy-going manner. That’s not to say she doesn’t like to play because she does and still shows that puppyness! Diego has such a loving spirit and really loves being around people. He is a pretty chill guy most of the time but only being about 9 months old (he’s a big guy), he still gets pretty excited about everything. Both of them do well with other dogs, always waggin their tails in welcome, and they seldom bark. They both know to wait to go potty outside and are very gentle taking treats and food.
This is from their trainer/foster: “DIEGO needs DORA more then she needs him. She will at least go potty without him, but then she wants right back in with him, and the reunion is as if they spent days apart. DIEGO, however, cannot function without his sister. They are so dependent upon each other, it’s sad to see them always looking for the other when I pull them one at a time to work with them. Their lives have not been very consistent, so the bond between them is even stronger. Having each other is something they could always count on. I feel like separating them would be detrimental to their psyche and would forever change who they are. There has to be someone out there, with 3 or 4 kids, that needs a couple of playful pups…”
We do offer a foster to adopt program and working with our trainers if you feel you have a home that would benefit from having a great “two for one” new family members! Visit carerescueok.org for our adoption application.
Diego and Dora are fully vaccinated, microchipped and Diego is neutered and Dora is spayed. Diego and Dora are available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Loki and Simba Loki (left) and Simba are a bonded pair of males with an estimated birthdate of 3/22/2020. They are black and white. Loki sometimes walks a little strangely due to something that happened in his first home, but he gets around just great and runs and plays. He was X-rayed at Feline Specialties and nothing was identified as a problem. Simba probably has a tear duct blocked in his right eye, so he does have some discharge from that eye, but it only needs to be wiped daily with a warm washcloth. He does have eye drops if needed. Both cats are very sweet and loving, although a little shy at first. They came to StreetCats because of an apartment fire and their owners had to move and could not keep them. They have not been around children but are OK with dogs and other cats. These two really need a loving home together as the first year of their lives wasn’t so great until coming into StreetCats.
All cats have tested negative for FeLeuk/FIV and are current on rabies and FVRCP vaccinations. All StreetCats kitties have Home Again microchips implanted and are registered at no charge to the owner.
Adoption inquiries can be made at StreetCats, 60th Street and South Sheridan Road, or email cats@streetcatstulsa.org . To see more StreetCats, visit streetcatstulsa.org .

Kiko Kiko was found by a Good Samaritan as a stray dog. It’s thought that he was hit by a car from how he was walking. But after visiting a local animal clinic, the veterinarian believes he has been involved in a car accident in the past but he is now healed up. During further examination, the doctor found poor Kiko is full of buckshot from being shot at by horribly cruel humans.
Kiko has been in a wonderful foster home with another dog, where he loves all people despite having every reason not to be accepting. He’s ready to find his forever family. He will need a tall fence since his wandering days are over!
Kiko is what we call a gentle giant and is believed to be 6-7 years old. Kiko is house-trained and knows commands. He does well with other dogs, but as of yet, we are not sure about cats. He is fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. Kiko needs to be loved as much as he loves people and he is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Ezekiel Ezekiel was originally brought to us to be neutered as a TNR cat but thanks to his charming personality, we were able to take him into our care to adopt out as an indoor companion. He is currently living in the office of staff members and is enjoying all the people who greet him and give him snacks daily. He is a low-maintenance boy, content to lounge in a comfy pet bed for much of the day. He is extremely passionate about canned food and will vocalize when he thinks it’s time to eat. If you’re looking for an easy cat with personality, Ezekiel is your kitty!
Ezekiel is FIV+, likely from being unaltered and living outdoors before we were able to rescue him. He is currently healthy and as long as he is kept inside and up to date on vet care, shouldn’t have any complications from here on out.
Ezekiel is about 3 years old and has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, FELV/FIV tested, and is current on parasite prevention.

Percy Lou Percy is a middle-aged girl who, along with her sister, was dumped at a local high-kill shelter after years of neglect and overbreeding. With the support of many, Percy and her sister were rescued by CARE Rescue. Unfortunately, her sister didn’t make it due to a cancerous mass. But Percy has received noninvasive medical treatment and is now just looking for a soft place to lay her head. Along with years of neglect, Percy is a bit overweight and is simply looking for a family who will treat her well. In only a few weeks, Percy has begun to show her true personality, and she is showing bursts of playfulness. But after a little bit of attention and activity, she is ready to go to a soft place to rest. If you are looking for a girl who isn’t looking for lots of activity, Percy will show you all the love a girl can. It is believed she is approximately 7 years old but still has lots of life. After first being dumped at a shelter which was loud and hectic, then going to Woodland West Animal Hospital for medical care, Percy is now seeing that humans can be caring, and she has made many new friends despite recently losing her sister. Percy is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated and is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Boo My name is Boo and I’m mostly a lounge act with a playful side. I made a name for myself on the streets and found a dashing older dog during my travels. I took the initiative and tried to move in with him, unfortunately his elderly owner wasn’t in the position to take in a younger gal like myself. However, I have since learned, the elderly woman and my current foster mom were in cahoots to end my gypsy ways. Turns out I happen to fancy being a house dog and one that excludes cats. There’s just something about how they skulk around acting like they want to play, but I discovered they are all frauds. They don’t really want to play, and they get all high and mighty when I try. Talk about mixed signals!
Anyway, I’m 3 years old, spayed, vetted, microchipped, house-trained and crate-trained and would very much like to have a family of my own. My foster friend got adopted, so life is pretty lonely nowadays. I promise to greet you every day with a smile and I aim to please. Especially if there’s a bully stick involved because those are my favorite! Boo is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Carlos Carlos is approximately 18 months old and don’t let his size mislead you. This boy is possibly the most “chill” dog you will ever meet. He rarely barks, loves other dogs and is the perfect gentleman with a smile that will melt your heart. Carlos loves to give hugs and kisses if you let him, but mostly, he is simply looking or a family to love and to be loved. Carlos is comfortable in a crate but doesn’t mind getting in the car if you want a buddy to tag along. He even walks great on a leash. There are not enough wonderful adjectives to describe this sweet boy, but be assured he is as calm and well-behaved as any dog you will ever meet. Carlos is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Mr. Heckles My name is Mr. Heckles, but my friends just call me Heckles. I’m a lifer here at CARE, meaning I was born into the rescue! I’m 2½ years old and so ready to find my forever family. I’m a little quirky, but I don’t think that means I don’t deserve an understanding family of my own. In fact, I’m patiently waiting for them to find me. I’m a pretty big guy weighing in at 91 pounds, and I’m a Great Pyrenees mix! I know how to sit, lay down, crawl, shake and even sit pretty! I walk well on a martingale collar too. I get a little nervous around new people and new dogs, but I do warm up. I may be a big guy, but I just can’t help that I get nervous, and I hope that doesn’t deter you from wanting to give me a shot. With my size, sometimes things scare me. I’m house- and crate-trained, and I think I would do best with grownups and bigger kids. The little ones sometimes have loud voices that make me nervous. I know that if I had a family that would love me and make me feel safe, I would be the very best loyal companion for my whole life. I really like to play fetch and go for car rides! Those are the best! But you know what’s better than a car ride? BELLY RUBS AND BEING BRUSHED! Boy do i love belly rubbins! If you want to meet me, please apply for me at carerescueok.org .

Lupen Lupen is a 1-year-old who gets along great with other dogs and loves to wrestle and play. He knows how to sit and lay down. He is fearful of new people, but with the right person who is willing to be patient with him, he will be your best friend. Unfortunately, he is more fearful of men; however, once he learns to trust as he has with his foster’s brother, he will reciprocate. From his foster mom: “Lupen is a complete goofball. Belly rubs are his favorite kind of love, and he’s more than happy to curl up in bed with you. If you don’t mind, he will thank you with lots of kisses and wet willies. He has lots of energy so he will do best with someone willing to play with him on a daily basis. Lupen is currently living with a 10-year-old girl so we feel he will do well with or without kids in the home. He is crate-trained and does best when he has a toy to entertain him. Lupen has not been cat tested, but he is interested in birds in his yard.” His current foster says he is a sweet little guy and has made great progress in their home. We are looking for a family that will be patient and loving. Lupen is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Noriko T. Walters Sesi Hi, my name is Sesi (it means snow) and I have a BEAUTIFUL solid white coat. I’m the only girl of my litter, and my foster ma says it’s a tough job, as I demand all the love (which I get, of course). I’m a sweet girl and love to play. I’ll do anything for a treat, even sit and lay down, which at 10 weeks old, I hear that’s an accomplishment. I’m told I’m a huskador (husky/lab mix), so obviously I’m very smart and playful.
Sesi is a young pup and will be vaccinated, spayed and microchipped at the appropriate age. Sesi is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Kavik Hi! My name is Kavik (it means Wolverine), but I am far from. I am the sweetest boy of my siblings. I love soft blankets and being held. I’m not a small boy at just 13 weeks and almost 30 pounds. I am said to be a huskador (husky and lab mix), but I have the coolest colors of my pack. I love to play with my siblings, and I even try to play with the cats. And my foster mom says I have been super good with my potty training because I haven’t made one mess in the house! I would love to come play at your house too! Kavik will be neutered, microchipped and fully vaccinated in the coming month. Kavik is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Button Little Button came to us not long ago with her sister Bow. She is approximately 9 weeks old and a lab/border collie mix (we think!). She is very sweet, playful and already listening well for one so young!
She is used to being around big dogs and, as most puppies, should do well with cats. Kids and puppies are just a given! This adorable baby will make the right family a wonderful addition! Button will be fully vaccinated and microchipped and her adoption will cover her spay procedure when she gets a few months older. Button is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Honey Meet Honey! She is the perfect lady! Honey was adopted back in 2018 after having a beautiful litter of puppies. She was recently returned as her family was having medical issues and could no longer take care of her. She hasn’t skipped a beat and really just loves to lounge around with the random romp in the backyard! She is amazing with children, other dogs and hasn’t paid much attention to the cats either. This girl turns 8 years old this year and is ready for a chill home environment to spend her days. Honey is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped and is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Lucas Look at that award-winning smile! Lucas flashes it all the time outside, where he enjoys playing with toys, being chased through the yard or just sniffing around. He’s never smiling in his kennel though where he spends most of his day. Lucas is one of those sweet dogs who just can’t stand being cooped up at the shelter and is finding the whole experience extremely stressful and depressing. He would like to get out of the shelter as soon as possible by going into a foster or forever home!
Lucas doesn’t seem reactive to other dogs and already seems to have some basic training on board but can be very pushy and jumpy at certain times.
At 2 years old and 53 pounds, Lucas is a lovely size, especially since much of his weight is a soft, silky golden coat! Because Lucas can be a lot when he is stressed or excited, he is looking for a family without children younger than 12. He has been neutered, vaccinated, heart worm tested (negative), microchipped and is current on parasite prevention.

Emerald Emerald is a fun-loving puppy! She had a very rough beginning to life, being surrendered with her brother (RIP) to our local animal shelter very sick with Parvo. Emerald was able to survive this deadly virus due to generous donors and an educated veterinary staff. She is approximately 3 months old now and has beat a deadly virus, so she is one strong pup! She loves to play with toys, enjoys a good puppy chew bone and prefers to curl up in her person’s lap. She is ready for her forever home! Emerald will be fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped at the appropriate age. Emerald is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.
