When we asked our community for support, Fairview Veterinary Center didn’t hesitate—they stepped up and sponsored an exhibit at the zoo! Their generosity helps us give our rescued animals the care they deserve, and we’re so grateful for their partnership.

Now we’re challenging YOU to join them. Tag your favorite local business and encourage them to sponsor too—together, we can build something amazing for Twin Falls.

Every donation counts. If you'd like to support our mission directly, please click our GoFundMe link and help us continue to grow: https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-the-TFZ-animals

Let’s show up for the animals—and for the community that loves them.

The meeting this month will be held in Meridian at Bear Creek Park at 6:30. If you come via the Freeway, take the Meridian Rd exit and head shout on Meridian Rd. Turn west on W Overland road. Turn Left onto S. Stoddard Rd. The first left should be right near the parking lot for the park. The address is 2400 S Stoddard Rd. We’ll do picture taking for the 2022 calendar so bring your animals. Pre-sales for the calendar will start then as well. Remember the only way you can be guaranteed a calendar is to make sure I have you down for one. The cost will still be 10.00 for pre-order. Hope to see you there!

The meeting will be this Sunday, Aug 15th at 6:30 again outside at Bill Rupp’s house, 4623 ½ north Adams St. in Garden City. It will be a show and tell, and planning for next month and the fall/winter. And perhaps we can get Mary to talk a little about her 2 headed garter and show pictures. She won’t be bringing it to avoid stressing it.
