Come on guys, just a few hours left!! If you can donate $5 or $10, it would be much appreciated! This is our LARGEST fundraiser of the year! And it is for the BEST animal welfare organization in our parish, if not the entire state! When someone has nowhere else to go, they come HERE for help! So let's help them get funding to continue!!

The kitties need YOUR help! This is THE MOST IMPORTANT fundraiser of the year! We are in full-swing kitten season and the phone never stops ringing! Support our sister organization that allows us to continue saving innocent lives. Big Sky Ranch/CATNIP Foundation provides the transports up north that give us an out for the overflowing shelters down here. They drove over 84,000 miles in 2022 and delivered over 1,200 animals to their new homes!! Let's step-up as a COMMUNITY and help them reach their fundraising goal!!

I have the privilege of volunteering at the most amazing cat rescue in Louisiana. They are the most dedicated and compassionate team of people that you will find. They work tirelessly to always put the animals' health and safety first. They not only focus on the existing problems of today, but also....

Let's help Big Sky CARES raise money for Give NOLA Day! Dirty Paws could not have continued to help kitties without their help.

Tonight, I remain in SHOCK!
We have worked so hard to get Shin healed. To see her return back to us, in this frail state, is heartbreaking. 😿
Time after time, we heal, repair, mend and hope their new family values the gift of a delicate pet.
Pets that reach our door are rarely perfect. They too, like US need care!
It’s our mission to fill in the need with CHANGE, with SUPPORT and EDUCATION!!!
PLEASE DON'T ADOPT without truly understanding the pet's NEEDS.
They cannot keep bouncing back. It takes a toll on them. Not just medically, BUT EMOTIONALLY.
They lose a home, family and freedom, but end up coming back to us, THEY GAIN CARE.
Please educate yourself on the adventure before you pack for the trip. The weather is unpredictable, JUST AS IN LIFE. Before you adopt, ask questions, ask the hard ones. And, remember...medical care is part of the ADOPTION!
Shin will be looking for a medical foster soon. Donations go towards her continued care and medical support.

Meet Deuteronomy (Deuter for short). This old fella has been through some tough times. Coming in at only 6.5 pounds, he is nothing but skin and bones :( His teeth are so full of tartar and his gums are so inflamed that he cannot eat hard food or solids of any kind. He is currently limited to only broths and other lickable foods. He is in need of an URGENT dental surgery. If you can spare a few dollars, Deuter and our team would be most appreciative!

After a much-needed holiday break, we are back in action! A total of 7 kitties were fixed this week. It's time to getting rolling as the weather warms up. Please consider making a donation to help cover the costs of surgeries & vaccines.
