🤍One year ago today, disaster struck Los Angeles in the form of two catastrophic wildfires. The Eaton Fire in Altadena and the Palisades Fire in Pacific Palisades forever changed these communities and the people who love them.

🤍Although we no longer live in Los Angeles, we spent many years there working in animal welfare. The animals of LA continue to hold a very special place in our hearts. Our hearts broke for those who lost their life, and for those who were never found. So many amazing heroes in the animal rescue world came together in an extraordinary effort to save lives.🐾

🤍Amidst the many stories of destruction and loss, there were also stories of hope and healing.❤️ One such story involves a brave little house cat named Bergie who survived the Eaton Fire and was reunited with her family 32 days later. A team of artists, many of whom are rebuilding their lives after the fire, have united to create DISASTER CATS, a hybrid documentary-animated film about Bergie’s true story of survival.🐈‍⬛

🤍The film is not yet completed, but if you’re in the LA area, you can see a work-in-progress at the Ashes to Films Festival on Jan 9 at 3pm. 🎬 The mission of is to bring together filmmakers who lost their homes in the fires.

🤍Today (and all days) we are sending so much love to the people and animals of Los Angeles who were so deeply impacted by the Eaton and Palisades Fires. 💖
It warms our hearts to know that a small group of those folks have united to tell Bergie’s story of hope. We can’t wait to see it, and we wish these filmmakers, and everyone affected by the fires, a continued journey of healing as we start this new year. ✨

We want to take a moment and thank all of the volunteers who are working so hard to find and reunite lost pets. They are out day and night searching, setting up cameras and humane traps, and not giving up!! ❤️🙏🐾

From cats and dogs to chickens and fish, lives are being saved every day. We are so grateful for these boots on the ground volunteers who are dedicated to reuniting these precious animals with their families.

Please consider supporting these smaller groups who are doing so much. We haven’t included all of the folks helping, so please let us know in the comments.

DON’T GIVE UP HOPE!! ❤️🐈‍⬛🐓🐾🦮🐠🐢

LAfiresPetHelp.com is a volunteer project we’ve created to help reunite pets with their families.

We realize that the resources we’ve shared in our stories quickly disappear and likely don’t reach as many people as we hope. Some folks have reached out and asked us to combine everything in one place.

Our hearts go out to all of our Los Angeles friends who continue to search for their beloved pets. We hope that our site can help with this difficult process. ❤️

We’ll be updating LAfiresPetHelp.com daily as we gather more resources. Please contact us with any edits or additions.

* LAfiresPetHelp.com is a volunteer project we’ve created to help people reunite with their pets, like Juliette *

We continue to hear stories of people who are overwhelmed with how to search for their missing pets.

Even with all of the amazing resources out there, it can be very confusing. There are local animal shelters and rescue groups, online databases and search tools, social media posts, spreadsheets, and more.

We realize that the resources we’ve shared in our stories quickly disappear and likely don’t reach as many people as we hope. Some folks have reached out and asked us to combine everything in one place, so we’ve created LAfiresPetHelp.com

We’ve collected all of the resources we’ve found and continue to find. This includes search tools for the Palisades and Altadena areas, as well as low-cost or free veterinary help for pets affected by the fires.
We’ll update the site daily and include any new resources we find.

Our hearts go out to all of our Los Angeles friends who continue to search for their beloved pets. We hope that our site can help with this difficult process.

Please reach out via an Instagram or Facebook message, or through our website, if you want to add more resources or see any errors or updates needed.
For the animals,
Laura & Jen

We hope that sweet Juliette will be found and reunited with her family. ❤️

🐾Today is NO DECLAW DAY.🐾

We ask that you
1️⃣ NEVER declaw your cat, even if your vet has a fancy expensive laser machine and claims it’s less painful (that’s a huge lie, btw).
2️⃣ Only give your business to vet clinics that NEVER declaw cats.
3️⃣ Please spread the word about how barbaric and inhumane declaw surgery is. The Paw Project has an amazing 1 hour film that everyone should watch.
4️⃣ Regularly trim your cat’s nails and provide appropriate scratching options.

A great post about “Foraging” from Ingrid/Fundamentally Feline with artwork by Lili Chin. Share with fellow cat purrrents! We could not have said it better.

I'm super excited to share this post! I have been working on this for a long time. I wanted to first give a shout out to my inspirations if I may. I was inspired to create this after seeing the awesome Play Infographic work of Doggie Drawings by Lili Chin and Dr. Mikel Delgado of What Your Cat Wants, but that inspiration combined with getting to know .png’s art really brought it together. This is the same artist who has created images for my Fundamentally Feline t-shirts and other swag items. She is so talented! My hope is to bring you an entire series of these on a variety of topics (in all of my spare time!)

Please share far and wide. If you are a vet clinic, shelter or rescue group and you would like to have a poster for your space, please visit my printful shop to purchase a full sized poster (12x18). Here is that link https://www.fundamentallyfeline.com/products/foraging-101-infographic/
