We had so much fun letting sweet Bluey spend some time visiting the residents at Parkdale Health and Rehab. He soaked up all the love and attention, and the residents absolutely adored him! 🥰

There’s something so special about the comfort, smiles, and joy that animals bring. Bluey was the perfect little therapy kitten, and we are so grateful we got to share him with everyone. Thank you to the wonderful residents for giving Bluey so many cuddles its safe to say he made a lot of new friends! 💙💙💙

This is one of the biggest problems in rescue today.
Somewhere along the way, society decided that anyone who starts a rescue should be responsible for every cat, kitten, dog, and puppy that needs help. The expectation has become that we should answer every call, take every animal, spend every dollar, sacrifice every minute of the day, and somehow never say no. The reality is that animal welfare is a community effort.

If more people participated in TNR, fostered occasionally, volunteered a few hours a month, transported animals, donated when they could, or simply helped educate others, the burden wouldn’t fall on the shoulders of a handful of exhausted rescue workers. We’re not asking everyone to dedicate their lives to rescue. We’re asking people to understand that they can be part of the solution. What pushes rescue founders to the breaking point isn’t just the number of animals. It’s the constant pressure from people who refuse to respect boundaries. It’s being told you’re not doing enough when you’re already stretched beyond your limits. It’s the financial strain, the sleepless nights, the compassion fatigue, the anxiety, the heartbreak, and the emotional breakdowns that nobody sees behind the scenes.

When a rescue says “we’re full” or “we can’t take more,” it isn’t because we don’t care. It’s because we’ve reached the limit of what we can realistically provide without sacrificing the care of the animals already depending on us. Before criticizing a rescue for what they’re not doing, ask yourself: What am I doing to help?

Because rescue was never meant to be carried by a few people. It was always supposed to be a community effort.

🚨 PLEASE READ 🚨

At this time, we are completely FULL and are unable to take in any more cats, kittens, dogs, or puppies. We are currently at maximum capacity in both fosters and resources.
We know kitten season is incredibly hard, and we truly wish we could help every animal in need, but we have to make sure the animals already in our care continue receiving the time, medical care, and support they deserve.

Please understand this decision is not made lightly. We are doing everything we can with the space, fosters, and funding available to us right now.

If you have found an animal in need, we encourage you to:
• Reach out to other rescues and shelters
• Post in local community groups
• Ask friends/family if they can temporarily foster
• Utilize local low-cost spay/neuter resources when possible

We appreciate everyone’s understanding, patience, and continued support during this overwhelming season. ❤️

🚗🐾 We are about to send 8 more cats up to Orem to be spayed and neutered! We would love to be able to give our transport driver some gas money for making the trip, plus a little extra for food. Our goal is $60. These transports are such an important part of helping reduce overpopulation in our community, and we truly couldn’t do it without the support of all of you.

If anyone would like to donate toward this trip, we would be so grateful. ❤️
