We need your help! 🐾

We’re needing some extra hands to help care for the dogs currently in our kennels located at Kairi. 🐶

With pups needing lunchtime feeds and all dogs needing their morning and afternoon clean and feed, we’re hoping a few more volunteers can jump in to help us keep everything running safely and smoothly.

If you have around an hour to spare in the morning, lunchtime, or afternoon, we would be so grateful. Even one shift makes a huge difference.

You’ll be helping with:

Morning & afternoon feeding and cleaning
Lunchtime puppy feeds
Basic care and a few belly rubs
Making sure each dog gets the comfort and support they need while they’re with us

If you can lend a hand, please send us a message or sign up here👉 https://app.getzelos.com/energetic-celebratory-otter/tasks

Thank you to everyone who has already stepped up for these guys! Your support genuinely keeps this whole operation going. 🧡

Some weeks stretch you to your edge.
This week, it was the parvo pups.
Fragile, fighting, and desperately needing treatment we weren’t sure we could afford in time.

Then Jackson stepped in.

Jackson Millan, also known as The Wealth Mentor, is the founder of Aureus Financial and the heart behind a small animal sanctuary an hour south of Cairns, Aureus Acres.

Aureus Financial Aureus works with business owners to help them find freedom beyond their business. Their mission is to create an abundance of financial resources so business owners can create more impact in the world.

Jackson has always been passionate about animal welfare and has rescued three community dogs himself with his partner Ana.

On their 70-acre property they have rescued and rehomed more than 100 animals in the last four years.

Given their time and environmental constraints, they are now focused on contributing to local animal welfare groups like RAA.

And this week, his generosity saved lives.

His donation meant we could continue immediate vet care and the ongoing treatment needed for pups who wouldn’t have survived without it

We also want to thank every single person who donated alongside him your kindness carried these pups through one of the hardest weeks we’ve seen.

Jackson, thank you.
Your support didn’t just cover a bill it gave these pups a fighting chance
We’re incredibly grateful for you, Ana, and the work you do in FNQ to give animals a better life

If you’d like to follow or support Jackson’s work, you’ll find Aureus Financial doing incredible things for both people and animals across the region.

We owe a HUGE thank you to Aureus Financial who has lifted a tremendous weight off our shoulders with a huge donation!!

We also want to say thank you to every single person who has donated or shared/liked/commented on our post!

FEELING SUPER GRATEFUL AND RELIEVED!! 🧡

This is one of the hardest updates we’ve ever had to share.

As you guys know, some of the puppies we brought into care on Saturday have come down with Parvo. One of them sadly had to be put to sleep because of his rapidly deteriorating condition, we had to end his suffering. Two more are at the vets fighting for their lives.

But the truth is: we have hit a financial wall.

We did not anticipate this outbreak.
We do not have cash reserves.
And we already have a $3,500 emergency vet bill, which will rise to around $4,500 by tomorrow morning, assuming no additional pups crash overnight.

It kills me to say this, but I need to be clear:
❌ We cannot send any more puppies to the vet right now.
💔 We may not be able to continue treatment for the ones already there unless we can cover the current bill and fundraise at least a few days in advance.

This is nobody’s fault. And it’s nobody’s responsibility. That’s the hard part.

This is simply the brutal reality of running a small charity with no funding. We can never ‘get ahead’ because there’s always another emergency that wipes us out.

Right now, I have to surrender and accept than I am one person who can only do so much. Now, all I can do it put this plea out to our supporters and ask you ALL to get behind it.

We have to ask ourselves, how can we keep doing this sustainably?

How do we save lives when the cost of each rescue is SO huge and we’re just appealing to the same small (yet amazing) group of supporters to fund it every time?

Right now, I don’t have answers.

I’m sharing this because our supporters deserve transparency, and because pretending everything is fine helps no one.

If you want us to continue saving dogs, we genuinely need your help.

Not just tonight, but ongoing.

Share this.
Donate if you can.
Comment.
Tag a dog-loving friend.
Do whatever you can.
We are their only hope.

Please donate here: www.remoteanimalassistance.com/donate

Thank you for standing with us during one of the toughest moments we’ve had as a charity.

This is a brutal and unwelcome reminder of why rescue alone is not the solution - we MUST do more to stop this terrible suffering.

UPDATE - SUNDAY 6:30pm!

This afternoon, one of the little pups had to be put to sleep due to the severity of parvo. It’s never easy, and our team is heartbroken. Two more pups are now in vet care fighting hard.

Their vet bill has already reached around $3,600 and growing each day, with treatment costing about $500 per pup, per day. We made the call to send another pup in this afternoon after their health declined so they have the best chance possible.

If you are able to donate, it truly helps us keep showing up for them. Every bit of support means a lot to our tiny team and these little lives.

Donations can be made here: https://remoteanimalassistance.com/donate/

Thank you for standing with us and a big thank you to the amazing volunteers and Tripocal Vets Atherton team who are working around the clock to care for these little ones 💛
