🚨 URGENT: Roxy Needs a New Foster Within 2 Weeks 🚨

We are desperately searching for a new foster — or even better, a forever adopter — for Roxy within the next 2 weeks. 💔

Roxy is a sweet, loyal Malinois Shepherd mix (around 35 lb!) who deserves a safe place to land, but she needs the right environment to thrive. She would do best as the only dog, or with dogs around her size or smaller.

She loves playing with her ball and running around the yard and would love to do it with you!

Right now, time is running out for her current placement, and we urgently need help finding somewhere for her to go. Even a temporary foster would make an enormous difference and help keep her safe while we continue searching for her forever home.

Please share Roxy far and wide. Someone out there is meant for this girl. 🖤

💔 We are urgently looking for a new foster or adopter for Roxy 💔

Roxy keeps getting overlooked, and we honestly don’t understand why.

She is a beautiful, loving girl who deserves stability, patience, and a home where she can finally relax and just be someone’s dog. Roxy would do best as the only dog, or in a home with dogs around her size or smaller where she feels comfortable and secure.

Right now, she really needs a place to go. Even a foster would help tremendously while we continue searching for her forever family.

Please share Roxy. Her person has to be out there somewhere. 🖤

TNR Tuesday 🐾✂️

What kind of crazy person gets up at 4:30 in the morning after trapping all night for a week… then drives an hour twice with these gas prices to transport a bunch of stinky wild cats for surgery?

Tireless volunteers from our rescue - that’s who!

(As a reminder, our rescue is ALL volunteers and we do this in our free time!)

TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) is exhausting. It’s dirty, time consuming, emotional, and expensive. It means lost sleep, endless laundry, scratched arms, early mornings, late nights, and spending your own money on gas, food, supplies, and medical care. But it matters.

TNR is how we humanely reduce the feral cat population and stop the endless cycle of suffering. Cats are trapped, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, treated if needed, and then returned to the area they came from if they’re truly feral. Friendly cats and kittens are rescued and placed into foster homes whenever possible.

Why do we do it? Because kittens born outside suffer. They get sick, hit by cars, attacked by predators, starve, and die way too young. One unspayed female cat and her offspring can lead to hundreds of kittens over time. TNR prevents future suffering before it starts.

This week:
• 10 kittens safely rescued off the street and placed into foster homes where they’re finally getting the TLC they desperately needed ❤️
• 15 cats spayed/neutered so they can no longer reproduce
• 25 cats/kittens helped total this week

And the hardest part… 5 deceased kittens that were born outside to suffer. We are so sorry we couldn’t get to them in time. But at the very least, they were given a proper burial, and their parents will be fixed so more kittens don’t have to die the same way.

Please spay and neuter your pets. If you find kittens, trap the mom too. Don’t wait until there are multiple litters. Prevention saves lives.

Some days TNR breaks your heart. Other days it reminds you why you keep going. 🐾

Kittens are flooding in! You know what that means.....we need food, litter, and PROBIOTICS because kitten p**p is next level 🤢

We have transitioned away from an Amazon wish list due to product availability and shipping challenges- so the best way to get donations to us is through our Chewy Wish List. Our highest needed items are listed first. If you aren't sure what to get you can donate a Chewy Gift Card. They do deals and promotions on items all the time! The fortiflora (probiotic) is currently 50% off if you set it up on auto ship!

Times are tough, but these kittens need help regardless. They don't understand that gas is almost $5 a gallon- they just know what they need. Food, love, and less stinky p**p.

🚨 Roxy Needs a Foster or Adopter 🚨

Our girl Roxy is looking for a foster or forever home where she can truly thrive.

Roxy is an amazing dog with so much love to give, but we’ve learned she would do best in a home where she is either:
• the only dog, OR
• with dogs around her size or smaller (1 yr old and 35 lb Belgian mal mix!)

She’s looking for a calm, structured environment where she can feel secure and set up for success. When she’s comfortable, Roxy is affectionate, loyal, playful, and forms incredibly strong bonds with her people.

We know her perfect match is out there — someone willing to give her the space, patience, and love she deserves. Fostering saves lives, and even a temporary foster would make a huge difference for her.

Please help us share Roxy so we can find the right fit for this beautiful girl. 🖤
