Running around with fluff just flying all over all over the place. It's literally Christmas in October at my house right now.
Thanks for bringing in that Christmas spirit, Barkley🫠☃️❄️

Send help🫠🐈

Honey desperately needs a diet plan. I've run out of attempts & she's getting more aggressive with her tone of disapproval each time. She has caught on to me gradually skimping her bowl & now eats Olive's food, along with the dogs' food in retaliation- I fear that she will result to nibbling on me next🫣

Any weight loss tips for fat kitties🐱 ?

While helping another community member locate their dog, I spotted this baby's lost post on the Ring app & just knew this was Barkley... Unfortunately, it isn't & the resemblance is just a wild coincidence.

Noor went missing just last Thursday in the West Philly area! Please keep your eyes peeled for this little one🥺🙏🏽

"To all my Family, Friends, and Supporters🥳,

If you know me then you know when it comes to these fur-babies, I can't have anything to myself- Including my 30th birthday because they are who I do it for! We currently have a $350 balance with more bills to come due to upcoming and constant vet care needs. Please help me help them by donating to their vet care at Emancipet... or these Big B***y Furs will resort to selling sexy calendar shots & paw pictures to raise funds💃🏽💸🤣!

Thank you for your continuous support :)

Dana G."

😫This is so frustrating.
My pages were hacked last year, back in Nov from a non profit spam link & it's been hell ever since... After hoursss of triple checking with Meta, my non profit pages are super secure now but they keep attempting to hack back in, causing them to lock for days/weeks straight each attempt.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Location📍: The Philadelphia Zoo aka my damn house🤣🫶🏽

The "Royal Rejects", will be re-introduce along their return stories all week in hopes to get them more exposure & closer to their fur-ever homes👑💕

Believe it or not- Olive, Letti, Honey, & Yeezio have ALL been fostered out at some point & were returned right back to us, at zero fault of their own. 1 of them has a record of being fostered for 15 minutes😭. Yes. 15 freaking minutes!!! Another 1 was sent to ACCT- I'm still traumatized.

Stay tuned.

Happy Monday☀️💕!

I succumbed to the burnout last week & had to take a quick mental break to refresh...Also, the flowers I've been using as some sort of symbolic peace died so back to reality🥀😭
*Heads up, this started as a nice, motivated caption then turned into an entire rant session that should have been saved for my therapist🫠*

There still isn't a foster or even a place saver for April & her finder is gearing toward taking her to ACCT, which is completely crushing my heart bc I'm 1,000% sure she'll get super stressed there. I thought Letti would be in her fur-ever home by now but her foster/adopter is in the middle of moving so she won't be able to get her until the 30th.

Other than offering materials, vet care, training, & my personal services, what she really needs is a someone to give a home. I have been battling with myself nonstop, constantly telling myself that there is an EXTREMELY thin line between helping & hoarding.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am annoyingly optimistic & will find the silver lining in every situation- I'm struggling this time. The dire need for placement with nowhere to place these babies is an overwhelming cycle. I'm literally following some of the largest rescues & shelters around the world;
Every.
Single.
Organization.
is desperate for fosters right now. While at the same time, these breeders, (not just in Philly), are constantly reproducing faster than they can be saved.

It's such a draining feeling but a quote that I've held onto all my life that has helped me through almost every obstacle is: "You can do anything but you can't do everything." Forming that into rescue terms-I just have to keep faith alive & find that silver lining. As a single-man band, I have done so much more than I thought I would ever be able to since this rescue has started but I also have to understand that I simply cannot do it all & I can't beat myself up about it.

Now that I'm out of the hole, I put my positive pants back on & I'm back to posting my girl until someone steps up & gives her the chance she deserves. I have a feeling her home is out there, I'm just not going hard enough. My girl cannot not make it to the shelter🩶🤞🏽

April desperately needs a lifeline🛟

Her finder have been sooo patient & is willing to do anything he can to keep her from going to the shelter but he is going away tomorrow.

If I had a slight window of space for her in my home, I wouldn't be begging & pleading- She'd be joining the pact with us without a 2nd thought but there is an extremely thin line between helping & hoarding😓

Each baby in my house has their own spot/room, I have absolutely no space for another dog right now.

I will post my girl every hour if I have to, I know she'll reach someone who can help.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

🛟🆘 We need an absolute miracle, y'all!🥺🙏🏽

I know this is a far fetch with every rescue I know struggling for a foster but would anyone be able to hold this baby for a few days until I make a spot for her?

We are currently closed for intake due extremely low funds & we can barely cover Letti's eye surgery coming up buttt I'm trying to work out a miracle!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

She's a medium sized pittie mix, super sweet & thin. I'm going to visit her myself to get some better pictures in about an hour. The way she is already showing her appreciation for being cared for, I can't let this baby go to the shelter😢🥺
