CONGRATULATIONS (belatedly) to our most recent TSIR alumni! 🎉 Here are some post-adoption updates (in order of photos):

Sasha (now Callie)'s mom shared: "All is going good with Callie! She loves her training and is really improving....Our dog River really seems to love her company." 🐶

Stella (now Brynlee)'s Dad shared: "Brynlee is feeling at home. She was climbing our fence...so I placed three-foot extensions with mesh! We brought her to our vet last week and she was deemed healthy...She's certainly full of energy and a cuddly girl!" 🐶

Mouse's mom shared: "She's as happy as can be, and we have upcoming mountain trip planned for the 4th. She'll have a blast!" 🐶

Slinky the cat's Dad shared that he adjusted to his new digs and loves to play fetch! 🐱

Huge thanks to all who adopt and give rescue animals the loving homes they deserve - these furever homes are what keep us going when the rescue world feels so very difficult. Wishing all our adoptees the happiest of tails and trails! 🎉

The Snuggle is Real has recently extended its reach across the Atlantic, and we are preparing to welcome 2-3 kitties from our rescue friends in Kuwait.

These precious rescuees were orignally Denver-bound in March, but due to travel restrictions amidst the current conflict, their journey was postponed. For two months, the cats' lives hung in limbo while their human friends waited with bated breath for the airspace to re-open. Happily, their flight has been re-booked for June!

As you can imagine, the costs associated with this rescue mission are significant, and our Kuwaiti feline advocates are requesting assistance from the rescue community.

We are a group of individual rescuers based in Kuwait. We work at our own scale by rescuing and… Jonna DeSantis needs your support for Objective Furrever Home

Attention, TSIR Community: We Need More Foster Heroes! 🐾

Recently, several of our longtime core fosters moved out of state, leaving a huge gap as we continue to receive requests for animals in need. Right now, fostering is more important than ever.

Fosters are truly the backbone of rescue. By opening your home temporarily, you give animals a safe place to decompress, heal, learn trust, and prepare for their forever families. Every foster home saves lives — not just the dog or cat you host, but also an animal that remains in the shelter, because more space becomes available!

Whether you're interested in fostering kittens, puppies, adults, seniors, or medical cases, we’ll support you every step of the way.

If you’ve ever considered fostering, now is the time. Please help us continue saving lives. ❤️ See below for one of the sweet furkids for whom we are seeking a foster placement.

📩 Message us to learn more about becoming a foster.

Sweet Fella is seeking a foster or adopter ❤️

Fella is an absolute snugglebug who adores every human she meets. She is housetrained, crate-trained, and fully vetted! She has an adorable little snore and is an enthusiastic player. 🧸

Fella has enjoyed spending time with dogs in the past, and she has not had an opportunity to meet any cats yet. 🐶

Fella has an unusual fear of being leashed and sometimes panics in situations involving leashes. She tends to flail and do her very best to wiggle out of her harness or collar. Her leash-related stress has resulted in some leash reactivity toward other dogs as well, making it tricky to facilitate safe doggy meet-and-greets. For this reason, Fella will do best as the only dog in the home or with an adopter comfortable facilitating a very slow, scaffolded introduction to any resident dogs.

We are committed to setting Fella up for success, and TSIR will cover individualized, in-home training to support her leash skills. Please message us with questions or to arrange a meet-up! 💗
