When adoptable Dog of the Day and good boy Gunner stopped by our nonprofit clinic from our great rescue partner Homeless to Home Husky Rescue, he said no to the cage, and no to the floor… but yes to the bathtub!

He got his neuter surgery, shots, and more - now all he needs is a home! Interested? Contact the rescue!

SAVECats needs your help! Somebody (maybe accidentally) stole one of their traps, and they’re not cheap! Want to donate towards a replacement to help save cats? Check out their post - and please spread the word!

You know what is better than feral cats on silver platters? In a trap! 🍽️

Last week we were out trapping in a public housing complex when a confused individual walked away with one of our precious traps 🤬😡🤬😡🤬

We don’t know why or what they were thinking but we can tell you what they weren’t thinking. How many lives have been helped/ still need to be helped by that one trap, how essential it is to our program, how pricey they can be for a nonprofit, and how long the wait is to get a new one (the brand is the gold standard of traps)

Their ignorant action infuriated us. But there are still many more cats to trap in that community so we can’t let that deter us. Can you help in our efforts? Each trap costs $90, are you able to contribute to the cost of new ones?

Our rescue has big dreams of trapping 1,000 cats in 2026 and every little trap and 💵 contributes greatly towards that goal.

Donations can be made here: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=WGQXYMSWG4H3L

Or if you prefer this is the brand of our most cherished item: https://www.trucatchtraps.com/small-animal-traps/feral-cat-traps/30-ltd-light-duty

Traps can be mailed to 1656 Village Green Dr Crofton
