We wanted to announce the sad passing of Alumni Gwen. She was one of 3 Chinese cresteds that we took in from a huge breeder hoarder abuse case many years ago. I remember driving to Houston with Stephanie and we loaded full of cresteds for many of our local rescues, trying to help with the MANY the shelter had seized. These babies lived in deplorable conditions. I’ll attach a little photo snip from the news.
This sweet family from Illinois had adopted our little baby Roxie, and later drove back when they learned that we still had Gwen. Yes, they drove from Illinois twice. ❤️ Gwen was considered an old gal back then, so it’s amazing that she got to have the comfort and love of a home for so long. It’s heartwarming seeing little images of her life and the love she got to have. Her family does still have little Roxie, living her best life.

We got word today that our very first official saved animal as a nonprofit, has sadly passed away. Precious Ellie was saved from Desoto shelter many years ago. She was so very scared and shut down. I remember celebrating milestones with her… a tail wag, walking without fear, playing with a toy. She became glued to me, a little shadow. We took her to a Margaritaville adoption event and she met her future family. ❤️ Kim and her husband just adored this girl. For MANY years they’ve adored her. Age finally came for our Ellie. I pray for her family during this difficult time. She will always be our number 1, the beginning to many changed lives. A special girl with the sweetest heart.

I wanted to honor 3 of our Rockers Alumni that recently passed away as seniors. Buddy, Teddy, and Gideon.

The blonde is a cocker spaniel named Buddy. He was one of 2 dogs (Buddy and Beau) we rescued that were dumped by their owner after they couldn’t drop off immediately at a shelter. He was adopted into a loving home and was spoiled for many years.

Teddy was a Rottweiler we saved from Caddo parish animal control. He had such a beautiful smile. I remember he was so happy at the shelter and we just had to save him. He went on to live on a farm with a family that adored him. He had a wonderful 9 years with his family.

Gideon had to have a leg removed when we rescued him from Caddo parish animal control. Gideon was a short and low little boy. He was so scared when we got him. He got to go live in Texas and spent many years being doted on.

Im so thankful to the sweet families that adopted these babies and got to be their true forever homes. They took them in and gave them an ending far different than how they started. They gave them what they all deserve, you gave them what we prayed for, love and a family. Thank you to these homes.

It helps to know the process ahead of time. We have used Heavenly Acres For Pets for years. We love them and their caring hearts. They have a system that updates you during the process and I feel like that gives comfort to many.

We understand that trusting someone with your beloved pet is one of the hardest decisions you'll ever make.
That's why we believe you deserve to know exactly what happens every step of the way.
From the moment your pet is picked up to the moment they're lovingly returned home, every step is handled with compassion, respect, and the individualized care your family deserves.
If you ever have questions about our private cremation process, we're always here to help.

Alumni’s Violet and Rox (now Stella and Monkey) have been adopted from us about a year ago! They checked in and are doing great. Rox enjoys being the baby and Violet enjoys mothering her, even though they’re almost the same age! Haha. Boltie is their brother and he plays with them too. We’re so happy these special girls scored such a loving home.

Thank you so much to our sweet Give for Good donors! We had 17 generous people donate to help us with our future care and endeavors. I appreciate you so much. Enjoy a big smile from Bruce, our Mascot/Alumni (bottom) and his friend Jelly up above!

Give for Good is today! www.givefogoodnla.org/rockers

Following our former announcement, any donations we receive today will help support our senior and special needs babies remaining in our care. Any extras will allow us to continue helping make a difference in the community in our own special ways. Sebastian below had FIP, he was literally dying with a huge swollen abdomen and his facial features shrinking in. He was saved thanks to donors allowing us to get life saving FIP medication. After around 80 days of meds, Sebastian has been doing good! We are so fortunate he survived and couldn’t have made it happen without your support. Thank you!

I’ve been avoiding posting this for a bit, as it just makes me sad, but I know I need to get it out there so that I can continue on. Our last kitty was adopted, so it's time.
In short, after over 10 years of saving lives, Rockers Rescue will continue functioning for the senior/ special needs lifer cases under our care, but we no longer intend to intake animals.

Over 10 yrs ago, I created this rescue. Hundreds of lives we’ve changed one by one. It has been an honor to work with every foster, volunteer, and donor over the years. Many people, as well as other rescue leaders, have become good friends. I have learned SO much and continue putting those skills to use.

I finally hit a plateau that I couldn't overlook. I had to come to reality that I cannot keep saving lives... when I cant guarantee to be there for those lives years down the road when their owners don't want them anymore. Being a foster based rescue, those animals come back into our personal homes. Many of our former fosters moved over the years, so the foster homes they once had no longer exist. For the limited foster homes we do have, our pets change over the years too. So while we may have been a great foster spot in the past, it does not mean we are a match for that same animal years down the road.

Personally, and this is something that I have not talked about yet, I have been doing fertility treatments for a while. Dealing with those hormones and emotions has been hard enough, but I also have had the stress of running a rescue, and people wanting to give back animals after years, when we no longer have a foster environment that suits them. Its always a fear hanging over my head, wondering when the next message would come with bad news. A lingering anxiety. While doing the fertility treatments and facing this issue, it just became too much.

At the same time all of this was bundling up, we had a rescue behavioral euthanasia that ripped our hearts apart. This broke me, even though I know it was necessary for everyone's safety. Being in rescue, we of course have big hearts and a heart for healing… so not being able to accomplish that healing despite all efforts, is a huge devastating blow that still gets to me.

All of this added together with a lack of foster homes, lack of able volunteers (outside of the little group of amazing ones we have), lower donation support, and increased expenses, has aided my difficult decision to close our intakes after 10 years of operation. Again, I cannot continue saving lives, when I can’t guarantee to be there for them years down the road when their owners don’t want them anymore. It’s just not feasible for a small foster based rescue.

I am still keeping the rescue going in hopes to have support for our special need lifers and for me to continue aiding where I can. I am still co-running Buddies of Bossier City Animal Control and networking their cats and hope to increase my support with them.

This is not a complete end, but a transition to what is best for me.. I’ve had my fair shares of tears and losses, being cussed out and threatened by strangers, and stressing over rescue finances and events, and praying over animals as they took their final breath. Every smile, wagging tail, and healed animal made up for all of those struggles though. They were so worth it. Making families WHOLE with a pet getting a new chance at life… so worth it. I will cherish every single happy moment and accomplishment we made. Every single precious life we changed.

I have given so much of myself, as I will continue to do, but I will do it in a way where my personal home and family are more safe-guarded from the stress of other people's decisions. As always, it’s not the animals that fail us. I’m trying to remind myself that I’m not failing either…my goal has always been to make responsible decisions.
Please pray for me during this transition. We started this rescue when my daughter had a sippy cup…. she’s about to be a freshman now. This has been a very hard decision but one that’s necessary for my own home and health. Please also help support our seniors/special needs babies when able. Any continued support to them means more than you know. I wanted to get this post out there before Give for Good comes, as I always strive to be completely open with our donors and friends. If you choose to donate to us for Give for Good, please know your donation will still go to the animals as always. Words are not enough to express all of my emotions and thankfulness to our supporters over the years. Thank you. I hope everyone can understand my struggle and decision. -Megan

P.S. one of our many beautiful before/after photos is below. It is of our former mascot Grace Pibble. She was an inspiration and admired by many. I know we have many supporters that were around back in the "Grace Pibble" days. Thank you to those that stuck with us over the years to help us change lives.
