We have more babies. It’s been a while since I had bottle babies. I’ve been so busy with the clinic Megan has taken all the bottle babies. But this time they came straight to me and it my turn to wake up every 2 hours. :).
We hope their mom is safe and some kind soul looks after her too
🎶 Oops, We Did It Again 🎶 - imagine me sounding just like Britney Spears....k? 😅 FRESH UNBOXING VIDEO! Short & sweet, just like everything should be 😘
Rescues Unite! Amy's Bunny Barn Society and our trusty Spay and Neuter Cruiser braved the rain for a day of bunny wellness exams and vaccinations. It was a laughter-filled, snuggle-packed day with animal lovers and furry friends alike, and we're feeling inspired to keep increasing our impact on the lives of Vancouver Islands Animals 🐰😻.
When a community comes together to do good things, we truly become unstoppable 💪! Thank you to everyone who continues to donate to our causes, and the volunteers who step up to help us get this work done! We truly cannot do it without you 💓
Why don't we reserve kittens for adopters before they're ready? How many kittens have come in that haven't been "unboxed"? What's got Megan so excited? Tune in to find out!
Our first Amazon wish list item arrived today! Admittedly I'm a bit slow with figuring out technology, but I'm so glad I stopped putting off setting this thing up because look at the cool stuff that arrived today! 🥳
On a related note, if you feel like you want to do a little online shopping and send something to the kittens, here's the link to our wishlist 😉 🥰

Come celebrate Simba with us! He gave us a real scare when he was tiny, but now he's big & strong and ready for adoption - these are the moments we cherish so much in rescue 🥰
Sometimes kittens born outside require extra TLC to make their journey to healthy adoptable pets. One of our most recent intakes has taken a turn for the worse and had to come back to the shelter from foster care to have a close eye kept on her.
Times like these are when we're so incredibly grateful for our donors of the past & present who help us purchase life saving medical devices like the incubator we're using right now.
So on this Thanksgiving Sunday, we're giving thanks to our community for their generosity of spirit, helping us to help these sweet souls who wouldn't stand a chance without these kinds of life saving interventions ❤️
Come along for a tour of our "shelter" (i.e. Megan's basement 🤣) as we show you our set up, some kittens you haven't seen yet, and some of the chaos in the life of a kitten rescuer 😻
Have you always wanted to see 45 minutes of kitten intake squished into a one minute video? Well now you can! 🤣
When kittens arrive to our rescue they go through a thorough intake process. We assess them for health issues like ear mites, dental issues, upper respiratory infection symptoms, ringworm spots, current weights, tooth development to estimate their ages, etc etc. Then we give them dewormers, flea treatments, medications as needed, and vaccines. And perhaps the most important part: the paperwork! Keeping extremely detailed records is vital to running a rescue, it's the only way we can keep on track of which treatments a particular kitten may need at any given time, and is critical to keeping our vets in the loop about things we've done proactively incase the kitten needs to make a trip to the vets office.
Oh and p.s. - we took in 2 more litters last night after all of this! 🤯
Come along for another kitten unboxing! We have some real cuties that came in today, and they all want to say hello 🥰
