Over the past few weeks, our vet clinic had the privilege of helping a sweet family and their adorable kitten through a tough time. When their kitten experienced a re**al prolapse, they brought him to us for care. It turned out the family didn’t have the essentials like a litter box, so our amazing team, Jess and Rachel, from our outreach department, stepped in to make sure they went home with everything they needed to care for their furry friend—including plenty of goodies!

After lots of love and care, the kitten recently came back for his final recheck, healthy and happy. The sweetest surprise? The kids had decorated his carrier box with colorful drawings, showing just how much they adore their little buddy. 💕

It’s moments like these that remind us why we do what we do—helping pets and families stay together, happy and healthy. Thank you to this wonderful family for trusting us to be part of their journey!

This year, we’ve seen the heartbreak of hoarding situations and animals on the brink of despair. But thanks to supporters like you, we've been able to turn those stories into ones of hope.

-Several cats rescued from a hoarding and breeding situation, battling severe respiratory issues and birth defects, received life-saving care and found loving homes.
-11 bunnies rescued in partnership with The Humane Society of the United States are now thriving in their forever homes.

These stories remind us of the power of community and compassion. But the need is still great. That's why we’re asking you to join our Humane Heroes Monthly Giving Program to help us rescue and care for more animals every single month.

Your gift can go twice as far this holiday season!
