Just dropped this sweet girl off weโ€™re calling Lily to be evaluated. Sheโ€™s a friendly stray that unfortunately was grabbed and shaken by a dog last night when she entered his yard. Sheโ€™s currently unable to stand or walk. Please send prayers and good vibes her way ๐Ÿฉท

Our cat person is currently working on the Pitt st. issue. This will be quite a project and will take some time. They are going to be TNRโ€™d and returned to location they came from. If we find friendly cats/kittens we will post them to try to get them adopted.
Each cat costs our rescue $65. We are a small rescue and cannot keep doing TNR without help from our community. We would like to ask for donations to help cover vetting. Trapping is done weekly all over town and itโ€™s NOT free.
Please reach out through messenger or you can make a payment directly to
Berks Animal Hospital 610-562-2500 and tell them itโ€™s for our rescue.
Thank you for your continued support!

Once you become โ€œthe animal person,โ€ suddenly everyone thinks your time belongs to them.

๐Ÿซ  You didnโ€™t answer fast enough.
๐Ÿซ  You canโ€™t come today.
๐Ÿซ  You said youโ€™re full.
๐Ÿซ  You wonโ€™t take the animal.
๐Ÿซ  You offered resources instead of physically doing it for them.

And somehow, โ€œCan you help me?โ€ became โ€œYou handle it.โ€

Thatโ€™s where weโ€™ve lost the plot.

The people behind rescues, TNR groups and foster networks arenโ€™t sitting around waiting for the next problem to be assigned to them.

Theyโ€™re regular people.

They have jobs. Kids. Families. Bills. Their own animals. Their own lives.

โ“Ask for resources.

Because volunteering your time to help animals does not make your time public property.
