Dry Kitten Food Needed!
Welllp...
Just like that...
Our kitty kibble shelves are EMPTY!
With 83 kittens in care right now, it should surprise us, but here we are, with a lot of mouths to feed - and no food to feed them with!
We hate to keep asking for donations, but the money we will have to spend on kitten kibble, could be going to other things - like dewormers and vaccinations for the 10 puppies that came into care over the past two weeks...
Or to spay and neuter the last of the chihuahua's that we brought in back in August...
Or towards one of the dozen animals that we've already been messaged about in the past week- that need placement before the bitter cold comes.
If you are able to donate, you can do so through, @brindlepetsupplies, and they will give you 15% off AND deliver right to us:

Help Us, Help Them.
There are always those things you don't want to say out loud...
because if you do...
it means they are true...
But we don't know what else to do, at this point.
This month, the vet bills cost over $27,000. That's the biggest vet bill we've ever had, and we won't lie - we have no idea how to pay for it.
Absolutely. No. Idea.
Our square raffle isn't sold out.
Our comfy cozy fall raffle hasn't sold out.
Our plant fundraiser is at a standstill...
and it's too early to know about our Purdy's for Paws Fundraiser.
All we know - if we can't pay our vet bills...
we can't help the animals in our care...
and that means we've failed.
Please...help us?
There are so many ways to do so:
Our square raffle is open until the 15th, and you can buy tickets by messaging us on Facebook.
For our comfy cozy raffle, you can buy a 5 pack of tickets for $10 by following this link: https://square.link/u/V5jjqo7h
You can purchase your Christmas wreaths, poinsettias and houseplants by following this link: https://newchapteranimalrescue.growingsmilesfundraising.com/home
Or you can buy Purdy's Chocolate for everyone on your list by clicking here: https://fundraising.purdys.com/2023034-123449
Or - you could donate $5.00 to the cause by etransferring to: [email protected]. (Please include $5Friday in the comments!)
Of course -if you have an amazing way of raising $27,000 by the end of the month, we'd love to hear it too!!
Thank you so much for your support.
Snow Doggo JOY!
❄Were you ready for the snow? ❄
While we can't say we're happy about it - we sure are happy for the doggo's in our care who LOVE it! Including Joy, the spunky, playful, super energetic and ADOPTABLE doodle!
She's been having the time of her life with her Doodle Extraordinaire fosters, Krista and Aaron (and, we're pretty sure neither of them know how they became the "Doodle" experts, but they are our go to for this truly dynamic and mind boggling "breed". 😂 We appreciate them so much for always having their doors open to fosters!)
Joy was let out to potty and OMG, there was ALL THIS WHITE STUFF ON THE GROUND! And it was AMAZING!
We hope you enjoy watching our girl, who is finally coming out of her shell, play in the snow! And we hope you have an amazing Wednesday!!!
If you're interested in adopting Joy or would like more information about her, please, send us a message!

Fosters on Friday - Victoria and Talulah!
FOSTERS ON FRIDAY!
By far the most important part of a rescue organization are the fosters that take in the animals.
No matter how far gone, how behavioural, how smelly or how sick they may be, our fosters will welcome them with open arms into their homes - they will care for them, love them, train them and show them what it's like to be a part of a family.
It's because of the foster homes that we can put together a bio or a spotlight and can tell you everything you might need to know - the good, the bad, the absolutely adorable and the super quirky.
And it's 100% because of these fosters, that your new family member comes to you confident, well rounded and somewhat trained!
#Adoptable Victoria wants to show Talulah, one of the bichons we brought in last week, how walkies are done! Victoria has grown and learned so much over the past couple of weeks and we're so happy that she's sharing her knowledge with one of the newest members of the Next Chapter family!
Victoria is ready and waiting for her forever home - and she's even willing to walk the dog! Talulah on the other hand, still has a couple more weeks of decompressing, trust building and learning to do before she'll be ready to find her Next Chapter - but stay tuned!
Interested in meeting Victoria? Make sure to stop by Pet Canada in Red Deer on Saturday from 11:00 - 2:00!

Adopt Sally!
🐶Adopt Sally!🐶
Last week, Sally, along with her friends Jasper, Moncton, Jack, Hamilton and Halifax got to be the guests of honor at one of our “Paws for a Moment” events at the Creative Arts Preschool in Sylvan Lake.
Unlike her puppy friends, Sally wasn’t quite as jazzed to be a part of the fun. In fact, the sweet thing, when faced with 10 3-4 year olds, and then again with 5/6 year olds, tried to hide and shook like a leaf. While the other puppies played and soaked up all the attention – Sally tried her hardest to make herself as small as possible, and because of that, most of the kids left her alone.
But one little girl, sat next to the X pen and stuck her little fingers through the bars and gently stroked Sally’s fur. And slowly, but surely, Sally lifted her head, then readjusted, so the little girl could scratch her between the ears.
“Can I hold her?” The little girl, named Violet, asked in a tiny voice.
Our volunteer gently picked up Sally, and placed her carefully on the ground. We weren’t sure how she was going to react – as she had quickly trotted to the other side of the cage – as far as she could get from other sticky fingers and quick hands. But instead, Sally cocked her head and timidly took a step closer.
Being out of the cage wasn’t lost on the other children who were running around with Jasper and Moncton (because those two are the BEST for rambunctious little kids!!) but this time, when they came skipping over, instead of running as far as she could from them, Sally scooted her cute little butt – right into the lap of this one quiet little girl – the one who gave her the quiet attention she needed.
And that’s when we realized Sally was no longer shaking.
She was no longer avoiding eye contact.
Her tail was no longer between her legs.
With Violet – Sally was confident, and strong, and safe.
In a very small group (like a family situation!) Sally is always confident – the first to gre
