This patient took “hook, line, and sinker” a little too literally!

This turtle’s search for a snack came with an unexpected catch: a fishing hook. After swallowing it, our shelled patient needed surgery to have it removed! Thank you to Dr. Nelson at Summit for being able to see this little turtle so quickly!

Turtles unfortunately can’t tell the difference between a free meal and bait attached to a hook. And while that shell is excellent armor, it offers no protection against something sharp on the inside.

While accidentally hooking a turtle isn’t always avoidable, you can help reduce the risk by picking up discarded fishing line, hooks, and other tackle.

If you do hook a turtle or find a turtle with fishing line wrapped around its neck, please contact a licensed wildlife rehabilitator for guidance! Removing the hook yourself often inadvertently makes it worse. 🐢

We added the ability to donate through the post or you can visit our website at Pawsandclawswildlife.org if you would like to contribute towards this turtles surgery bill 💚

DB (Bobby the bobcat) wanted everybody to know that we are 58% of the way to our $5,000 goal! Thank you so much for your contributions and shares! 💚

There’s still time to help us reach our goal tonight! If you haven’t had a chance to give through Brazos Valley Gives, your donation will help provide food, medical care, and supplies for Bobby and the other wildlife in our care.

Every gift brings us closer, and every share helps us reach more people. We’re so grateful for everyone showing up for Paws and Claws! 🐾

Let’s see how far we can get before the night is over! 💚

❤️ We’re working toward a $5,000 goal this Brazos Valley Gives, and we still have a long way to go.

When this caracara was hit by a car and became trapped in the grille, Paws and Claws Wildlife Rehabilitation stepped in to help.

Rescues like this are part of why we do what we do. But getting an animal to safety is just the beginning. The food, medical care, supplies, and safe housing they need afterward depend on support from our community.

We’re a small organization, and reaching $5,000 would make a meaningful difference for the wildlife in our care—and the animals who will need us next.

Would you help us get closer to our goal today? Whether you give $5, $25, or more, your gift helps keep this work going. 💚

Help us care for patients like Jasper this Brazos Valley Gives!

This little squirrel is one of the many wild lives you help us care for at Paws and Claws Wildlife Rehabilitation. ❤️

Behind every patient are meals to prepare, enclosures to clean, and care that takes time, supplies, and funding. As a small, donation-funded organization, we depend on our community to keep that care going.

Today, please consider making a donation through Brazos Valley Gives. Your gift helps provide food, medical care, and safe spaces for injured and orphaned wildlife.

As requested, here is a Bobby update! 🐾

Growing, happy, and oh-so-sweet. Just listen to that purr! ❤️ (Video in the comments).

Although we haven’t seen much improvement in the movement of his hind legs yet, Bobby certainly hasn’t given up—and neither have we. We’ll continue working with him through daily rehabilitation, giving him every opportunity to regain as much function as possible.

For now, we’re celebrating a growing, happy little bobcat who clearly has plenty to purr about. 🐾💕

Meet Michelangelo! 🐰
Michelangelo came to us with a broken leg and paralysis of his hindquarters. But each and every morning, I get way too excited to see what my little artist has created overnight with his giant head of lettuce. 🥬
Come on, everyone… admit it. IT’S A MASTERPIECE!!!!! 🎨✨
Okay, maybe I’m a little biased. Maybe I’m just so darn happy to see that he’s eating, improving, and leaving behind his little works of art every night. 💚
When an animal comes in with injuries like Michelangelo’s, sometimes it’s the little things—like waking up to a demolished head of lettuce—that feel like the biggest victories.
Keep creating those masterpieces, Michelangelo. 🥬🎨 We’re rooting for you!

🐾 A little update on our not-so-little kitten! 🐾
Most of you have probably seen the story about the “kitten” who joined our friends at Six Kittens… only to turn out to be not quite the kitten everyone expected!

We received Damnit Bobby (we have been calling him DB for short) from Six Kittens and since arriving at Paws and Claws, DB has been VERY vocal, incredibly active, and absolutely obsessed with food. If there is one thing this little bobcat has made clear, it’s that he has plenty to say and no intention of going hungry. ❤️
Unfortunately, DB is also facing a much more serious challenge. He is currently completely paralyzed in his hind end with very little response to stimulus. Because of this, his prognosis is very guarded.

Our wonderful friends at Summit Veterinary Hospital were kind enough to take radiographs of DB for us. Thankfully, there were no obvious abnormalities seen on the X-rays that would explain his paralysis. At the moment we are taking things one day at a time and monitoring him closely.

Despite everything, DB is a fighter. He is bright, active, hungry, and VERY determined to make sure everyone within earshot knows exactly how he feels. 😂
We don't know yet what the future holds for this little guy, but we're going to give him every chance we can.

It’s unfortunately just a waiting game to see if any nerve damage can be repaired, but as long as he is comfortable, we are more than willing to give him all the time and care we can.

Keep this unexpected little bobcat in your thoughts and prayers. 🐾❤️

If it walks like a kitten and sounds like a kitten…it might be a bobcat. 🐾

Meet Damnit Bobby.
Because, damnit, Bobby…that’s a bobcat.

A former adopter reached out after her dog brought home this teeny, tiny “kitten.” She knew the little guy needed help, so she called us. And naturally, we said, “Yep.”
We were eager to help. We got him warm. We got him fed. We got him snuggled.
And then we looked at him a little more closely.

Those ears.
Those markings.
Those paws.
That kitten ain’t right.

We also noticed something much more concerning: Bobby didn’t appear to have normal control of his back legs. At that point, this was officially above our pay grade—and, more importantly, wildlife like Bobby requires specialized, permitted care.

So we reached out to our friends at Paws and Claws Wildlife Rehabilitation, who immediately stepped up. We kept Bobby warm, fed, safe, and sufficiently spoiled overnight, then got him transferred yesterday. He is now exactly where he needs to be, with wildlife professionals and veterinarians who can properly—and legally—evaluate and treat him.

And THAT is what rescue collaboration looks like.

Nobody has to be everything to every animal. One person noticed an animal in trouble. She called someone she trusted. We provided the care we could. Then another organization with the right expertise took the baton.

Different organizations. Different specialties. Same goal: give the animal in front of us the best possible chance.

It takes a village, y’all.
Or, as Hank Hill might say, I tell you hwhat. ❤️

Good luck, Damnit Bobby. You may not technically be one of our kittens, but you’ll always be an honorary one.

This little dove just arrived with a broken leg. She came to us in the most adorable bag from Century Square, so I think Sephora might have to be her name! 🛍️

We’ll get her settled in with pain meds on board and then work on fixing her little leg 🕊️💚
