Born with severely underdeveloped eyes, Stevie faced chronic infections and discomfort early in life.

Removing his eyes gave him a chance to live more comfortably and now heā€™s doing exactly that.

Ever playful, always curious. Stevie is proof that quality of life does matter!

Meet Blue.

Blue came to us very sick with a disease we suspect was leptospirosis, an illness that can cause severe liver and kidney failure in dogs and can also be dangerous for people.

While there is a vaccine that offers partial protection from the worst effects, Blue had not been vaccinated.

Despite care and our best efforts, he was not able to recover. šŸ’”

His eyes appear green here because his body was turning yellow from liver failure.

Blue was deeply loved while he was with us.

A life of love and joy is made possible in large part thanks to the which works tirelessly to treat, foster, and find forever homes for dogs and cats all over Grenada. They make a huge and measurable impact on reducing animal suffering here.

Cats are often the hardest part of this work to see.

Many arenā€™t social, arenā€™t owned in the traditional sense, and donā€™t come looking for help. But they carry real risks: parasites, toxoplasmosis, and viruses like FIV and FELV. And when they arenā€™t fixed, those diseases can spread quickly through entire litters and feline communities.

Volunteers, students, clinic staff, and Good Samaritans set traps, bring the cats in, and make sure theyā€™re treated, sterilized, and recorded properly.
