Sweet Mr. T and his dad are so thankful for the support and kindness.
AS of 10/13/26, this fundraiser has brought in almost $1900. Your continued shares and $5 donations are making a huge difference in the life of this animal in need. We have a bit to go in order to cover the ongoing veterinary care over the next few months. We could not do this without the support of our animal loving community!

Sometimes, the smallest paws carry us through life's biggest challenges.🧡 This sweet, eight-month-old orange kitten has broken both bones in his lower front leg, just above his wrist, and faces months of veterinary care and healing. This FURiday, we're asking for just $5 to help Mr. Tuffles get the treatment he needs and back on his paws.

For cat dad John, Mr. Tuffles is so much more than a pet. He's his best friend, confidant and the little ray of sunshine helping him get through life's toughest days.
John lives with PTSD and a traumatic brain injury following a debilitating car accident. He shares that through all his struggles, Mr. Tuffles is what keeps him going.
Now, his beloved kitty needs some help of his own.
Thankfully, this little ginger boy has youth on his side! With careful veterinary splinting, his bones have a good chance of healing without surgery.
But getting there takes time, patience and a whole lot of veterinary care.
Mr. Tuffles needs ongoing splint checks and changes, repeated X-rays to monitor healing, pain medications, sedation and multiple veterinary visits over the coming months. Not to mention he is working his way through all sorts of e-collars! Every step is important, and the expenses continue to grow.
For a cat dad who depends so deeply on his little companion, the worry is overwhelming.
Our pets have an extraordinary way of helping us through life's hardest moments. They offer comfort without judgment, companionship without conditions and a reason to smile when we need it most.
This $5 FURiday, even a small gift can make a big difference for Mr. Tuffles. Your kindness helps C.A.R.E.4Paws provide the ongoing veterinary care this precious boy needs to heal.
Help Mr. Tuffles heal 🐾 http://form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/.../albus-fund
Together, we can help lighten John's burden and give his best friend the chance to get back to what he does best: loving his dad and making his world a little brighter.

Could anything *be* dreamier than this???!!!

Finn and Gus were recently adopted by Jubilee and her family and dang, do they have a wonderful life ahead of them.

From fending for themselves in the Cuyama Valley as teeny baby kittens to a world where they are loved purely and fiercely, these beautiful, goofy boys will have nothing but sweet dreams from here on out and our hearts are filled with gratitude.

Part Chihuahua, part Oreo cookie, and 100% deserving of love!

At approximately 7 years young, this beautiful little boy has been through more than his fair share of life's hardships. While we can't change Oreo's past, we're determined to help give him the future he deserves. One filled with kindness, comfort, gentle hands, and the wonderful feeling of finally being safe.

Oreo is a special-needs pup who takes daily medication to help prevent seizures. But his medical needs are just one small part of who he is, and they certainly don't define the love he has to give.

What Oreo needs most is a quiet, patient, loving home where he can settle in at his own pace, leave his worries behind, and simply enjoy being someone's cherished little companion. No more uncertainty. No more upheaval. Just a soft bed, a peaceful home, and someone who will love him through all of life's ups and downs.

He isn't asking for the world. Just a little corner of it where he can finally feel safe, wanted, and loved.

Could you be the happy ending this sweet boy has been waiting for?

Please help us find Oreo his forever home! Share his story and help us reach the special person who will see just how much this little cookie deserves to be loved.

We're so excited to share that Mabel has matched with her forever family! She now has a wonderful future ahead of her...and she’s already busy telling her two new dog siblings what to do. 😉

A very special thank you to her incredible foster family for taking such wonderful care of Mabel and showing her how life should be.

We’re also incredibly fortunate to PAWrtner with , who provides the ultimate environment for these feline friends to feel safe, loved, and find their forever families.

Mabel was just one of FIFTEEN kitties rescued by a Good Samaritan from a closed dumpster bin this past August.

Your new best friend is waiting for you! 🐾❤️ While C.A.R.E.4Paws works hard to keep pets with the families who love them, Animals in Need Fund Program with CARE4Paws (AINF) is there for the animals who need a new beginning.

On April 28th, Poppy and her five kittens were rescued from an abandoned tent in the Santa Maria riverbed, where they faced an uncertain start to life. Though Poppy was only about 6 months old herself, she lovingly cared for her babies while learning to trust the people helping them. Today, this little family is happy and thriving...each kitty is now spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find a forever home. Could one of these resilient, loving cats be the perfect new member of your family?

Estimated DOB: October 15, 2025

Poppy loves her kittens and would do wonderfully being adopted with one of them. She will also do well with another playful cat in the home.

Adoption Fee: $95 for one kitty or $150 for a pair
