Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation Adventures

Hi friends,

I hope everyone is doing well during the holiday season! We are busy preparing for winter here and have realized that many of our tortoise friends are going to need upgrades soon for winter enclosures, so we might as well get them into something better this year if we can!!

You would be amazed how expensive these things can be, and I have been searching for cheaper alternatives that are also very functional.

With that, I have found that children’s sandboxes may be a good alternative to give these guys some decent room and still be able to give them their light sources without a concern for a fire/melting like a cheap baby pool would.

It would be a HUGE help if my local friends could be on the lookout for anything like this for sale from neighbors in the Louisville area. I would prefer to not buy them new ($60 for one is still cheaper than other alternatives, but any money saved can go to help another critter in need!)

Pictures of what we are looking for, can be any design, we aren’t picky, and some of our sweet tortoise friends from closer to when we first welcomed them to our home. ❤️🐢

Had the opportunity to participate at a middle school career fair recently. Two of our rescues, Charmander and Bananas came along to help educate our future vets, vet techs and animal care takers!

Charmander wasn’t so sure about things at first, but Bananas is a professional for educational events, and she loves all the shell rubs and greens she gets!

This rescue is doing amazing things. If you are looking for one to follow, this is it. If you are looking for a place to donate, this is it. Heartbreaking what we allow happen to our animals. 💔

Hi friends, I know I have been MIA again for a long time. Long story short, we unexpectedly had to say goodbye to my best boy who is my banner photo. It has been a rough several months to say the least. This dog has been in my life for 10 years, helped foster and train countless puppies and dogs and been tolerant of all my animal foster and rescue shenanigans the entire time. I had a post on my personal page when it happened, but I am not able to share here because of personal photos of my family, and honestly, I cannot go through all those emotions again right now. 💔

I am going to try and get back on track with regular posts. Let me know if there is a specific critter you would like to see/learn about. Many of you know what kinds of critters I have at home and if there is a specific case you remember or want an update on, let me know and I’ll make it happen!

Hi friends, we are brainstorming some fundraising ideas but in the meantime, here is the link to our Amazon wish list! If there is anything specific that you really want to donate, but it is not on this list, feel free to message me!

Ways you can help for free:
- Share our posts
- Those that live close- we are always taking shredded paper, or paper or newspaper that we can shred to use for small rodent litter boxes and bedding, towels, and blankets.

I’m still trying to find the best option for taking donations and toying with some calendar/t-shirt ideas.

Here is the link to our wishlist :

Hi friends, this is an amazing rescue that has been getting hit with a lot of big cases lately across state lines. If you can help by donating to the care of these sweet bunnies, please do! Even a small amount adds up!!

Picture of the day: went into the reptile room to get some things done and spotted Bandit wearing a tiny wood chip hat. Never know what you are going to see with all these critters. 🐍

Amazing rescue efforts from one of our local bird rescues, Ruffled Feathers. Please support this amazing rescue if you can! Even sharing can get the word out. Thank you Brad for all you do for these babies!

These people were bird breeders but when the pandemic hit in 2020 the birds weren’t selling anymore. So they bought a new house and just walked away from eve...
