🚨Important announcement!🚨
With heavy hearts we regret to inform you Little Paws Matter will be closing our doors permanently.
I did not come to this easily and it’s closing for many reasons. Rescuing is absolutely exhausting the last few months have been hard with adoptions being next to none, fosters being hard to find, and hundreds of requests to take in more animals. Not to mention the adopters who adopt and return animals which happens way more often than it should. Most being returned just because they don’t want to have the responsiblity of an animal. Leaving us scrambling to find placement a second time.
If I’m being completely honest the biggest reason is I’m burnt out. I work full time on top of running the rescue and I have some amazing volunteers who have helped tremendously but it’s still just too much on my plate and has taken a toll on me mentally and physically. Also lots people are just down right cruel. I’ve had the honor of meeting and working with some amazing people but more often than not been constantly degrading and told I’m a horrrible human being. No one deserves that but sadly that is how most rescue presidents are treated.
I would still love to be active in the rescue world however I will be doing it in different ways. I will be opening a marketing business, and hope to work with a few rescues helping with their websites and social medias. For anyone who would like to keep in touch I did tag my personal account id love to keep up with all the friends I’ve made through the rescue!
With this being said we will still be making sure the last of the animals in our care do find their forever home! All of them are shown below. Please spread the word and help us find them the perfect forever homes!
