It saddens me to let everyone know that Jack has returned back to our Sanctuary and is on the search for his forever home once again.

During his trial, Jack was an amazingly well behaved boy. He didn’t bark at the little yappy dogs next door or partake in any nuisance behaviours. He walked well on lead, sat for his food, played well with other dogs and slept soundly in his crate all night long. He was also incredibly affectionate, loyal and cuddly to his humans.

Unfortunately though Jacks trial family deemed that he would be better off on a property with more space, out of the hustle and bustle of suburbia….even be it just an acre or two.

They sensed that Jack was a little stressed and overstimulated with the goings on in suburbia and this was resulting a little bit of excited nipping. They think he would better enjoy running around a property or going on leash walks in a quiet area, where things weren’t so chaotic!

While we are super sad for Jack, we know he is one of the goodest and smartest boys going around and we know that his forever home is definitely out there!

If you are interested in meeting and potentially adopting Jack, please send us a PM. 🐾🤞🏻

EDIT- Have been saved by another Rescue.

ABSOLUTE LAST CHANCE TO BE SAVED!,

The pound in which these 2 beautiful dogs are currently residing has held them over numerous times in the hope that a rescue group will come forward and save them. The unfortunate reality is that rescue groups are all overflowing and overwhelmed with the current number of animals they have in care and the lack of available Foster Carers they have.

Without more dedicated foster carers coming forward, these 2 dogs and the 6 others close behind them WILL DIE. If you have ever considered fostering, then now is definitely the time.

Fostering is the most rewarding and amazing experience, but it does take empathy, commitment and patience. These pups have been in the pound a long time and will need time to decompress, lots of training and someone committed to their journey.

Transport from the pound is provided and food and vet work is all covered by our rescue. If you think you can offer one or both of these pups a safe place, then please reach out now.

Lastly I just want to say that this is what happens when people backyard breed! Yes the puppies are all cute when they are little and they all find homes, whether it be for free or for a small purchase amount. Then the pups suddenly aren’t so little and cute anymore. They need training, stimulation and time spent on them. People put them in the too hard basket and carelessly drop them to the pound to become someone else’s problem. Roughly 190,000 animals end up unclaimed in Australian Pounds each year yet people just keep on breeding…It’s not hard to work out the fate of most of the 190,000 animals…they pay the ultimate price for humans greed and selfishness!

In Scotland, a tiny brick‑sized cavity tucked into a fresh wall is becoming a sanctuary for swifts, those graceful aerial acrobats whose numbers have crashed in recent decades. Builders now weave these “swift bricks” into new homes, turning concrete jungles into safe sky‑high nurseries. Each subtle opening offers a hopeful chorus of fluttering wings, reminding city dwellers that nature can thrive alongside modern life. It’s a simple, heartfelt gesture that lets a fragile species rediscover the rooftops it once called home.

Black cats do not bring bad luck.

They bring the same soft head bumps, the same quiet company, the same little footsteps following you from room to room.

But too often, an old superstition makes people look past them before they even get to know them.

And that is the sad part.

Because behind those black fur and bright eyes is just a cat hoping someone will stop, look again, and choose love over fear.

🐻🐯🦁 THE UNLIKELY TRIO THAT DEFIED EVERY INSTINCT ✨💕

In 2001, police in atlanta, georgia 🚔 raided a home connected to illegal drug activity and found something no one expected: three tiny, malnourished cubs 😢, a black bear, a lion, and a tiger, being kept illegally and in dangerously poor conditions

rescuers stepped in immediately 🙏 the cubs were severely underweight, weak, and clearly in need of urgent medical care 🏥 they were brought to noah's ark animal sanctuary in georgia 🌳, where staff made a decision that would shape the rest of their lives: rather than separating them, they let the three stay together throughout their recovery 🤝

what started as a practical choice quickly became something extraordinary ✨ despite being three completely different species, animals that would never naturally coexist in the wild, let alone form a bond, the cubs grew up side by side 🐾 they ate together 🍖, slept curled up in the same space 😴, and developed a closeness that staff had never quite seen before

as they grew into full-sized adults, most expected the bond to fade or, worse, turn dangerous ⚠️ instead, it only deepened 💛

now known affectionately as "blt," short for bear, lion, and tiger 🐻🦁🐯, the three have remained inseparable for more than 15 years ⏳ they still rest together, walk their habitat side by side, and show the kind of quiet affection you'd expect from lifelong siblings, not natural predators and competitors 🤗

their story has become one of the most compelling examples of interspecies friendship ever documented 📖, a living reminder that trauma doesn't have to define what comes next, and that connection can form in the most unlikely places 🌍

rescued together. raised together. bonded for life 🐾❤️
