It's week 14 of your weekly recap of Furkids! From new beginnings to happy endings, it's been a week all of love - and we can't wait to share it with you!

🧡 We celebrated two very special adoptions this week! Mango had been with us for over 430 days before she met her perfect match, and Paloma finally found her forever person after being with Furkids since April of 2024!
🐱 Van Gogh, the kitty we told you about a few weeks ago who lost his ear after seeking warmth inside a vehicle, is recovering so well. Thank you to everyone who donated towards his medical care.
🌳 Thank you to the folks from William & Reed for volunteering with us and helping us remove the last of the hearts from our Tree of Life!
✈️ Lennox Lewis made the journey all the way from St. Thomas Island to Furkids! Thank you Connie for chaperoning him on his flight, and thank to The Kitten Fight Club for saving him!
❄️ Even during a snowstorm, our staff and volunteers are here caring for our animals. We had several staff and volunteers have a sleepover at our headquarters, dog shelter, and Peachtree Corners adoption center to make sure our cats were warm and fed during this severe weather.
🩺 Our medical team has been hard at work in the new year! We performed 55 spay and neuter procedures and vetted 38 animals for intakes just this week alone.

Thanks for following along on this weekly recap, see you next Sunday! 🐾

2024 was a year filled with hope, resilience, and love - all because of YOU! 🧡

In 2024, we performed 4,317 spay and neuter procedures, cared for 5,048 homeless animals, and witnessed 4,009 animals embrace their new lives in a forever home.

Every life saved, every tail wagging in a forever home, every purr of contentment - it's all possible because of the kindness and generosity of our incredible supporters. Animal rescue isn't easy, but it's a labor of love that we are honored to share with each of you. There is so much to look forward to this year, and we can't wait to take you along with us. Here's to creating more happy endings together in 2025! ✨🐾

Sassy, classy, and a little bit spicy - that's a tortie for ya! ✨🌶️ These beauties aren't ready to steal your heart - they're ready to conquer it.

They might carry a little bit of attitude with them, but know these often misunderstood kitties are so full of love. We have so many gorgeous kitties at Furkids who are ready to be your new best friend! Every animal from Furkids is spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age appropriate vaccinations.

Let us match you with the perfect pal. Visit furkids.org/cat-adoptions to view all of our currently available kitties and fill out an adoption survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Cat! 🐾

Snow and ice are a rare sight around here, but when winter weather strikes, our Furkids team springs into action to keep our animals safe, warm, and happy. We spent many hours preparing for this moment, moving all cats out of adoption centers to foster homes, securing staff to stay overnight, rescheduling events, adjusting thrift store hours, and so much more! There are so many logistics involved when caring for hundreds of animals each day! From extra fosters opening their homes to staff staying overnight at all of our locations, it’s been an incredible effort to make sure all paws are cared for. ❄️🐾

Some staff braved the roads early in the morning, while others are prepared to spend another night at the shelters to ensure no need goes unmet. Even our koi fish, grounds and facilities are looked after, thanks to our awesome groundskeeper, who makes sure all vegetation and fish and facilities are safe. Animal rescue truly takes a village, and we’re so grateful for the amazing people who make it all happen. ✨🫶

We wanted to assure everyone that all of the Furkids animals are safe and sound! We hope you and your furry friends at home are staying safe & warm! ☃️ We'd love to see photos of your pets enjoying the snow - drop them in the comments below!

Another rescue story & heartwarming happily-ever-after, all made possible by the generosity and support of 15/10 Foundation and their community, who covered the total cost of Jack's medical care. ❤️‍🩹 We are eternally grateful!

This weekend, a Furkids volunteer heard about a devastating situation - a mother dog and her puppies living in awful conditions outside. With the frigid temperatures we've been seeing and the possibility of snow on our horizon, we knew these pups were in dire need of rescue. Without any additional information, we committed to help this precious family.

A selfless and compassionate community member knew their location, drove to pick them up, and our volunteer met with them to bring them to the safety of Furkids. When we met these dogs, we realized their rescue story was just now beginning.

This brave mama, now named Juneau, and her puppies are completely terrified of humans. They have never known the kindness of a human hand or the warmth of love. These precious babies run and seek out a place to hide, they have literally never been touched by a human. It will take weeks, possibly months, to teach them how to trust and feel safe, but we couldn't stand the thought of them freezing to death outside.

Right now, they are being treated for worms, fleas, and the neglect they've endured, but most importantly - they are safe and loved. Our amazing staff are now their family, until we can socialize them and find them their forever home.

The harsh reality is that Juneau and her puppies represent just a fraction of the countless animals in our community who are fighting for their lives this winter. We do everything in our power to rescue as many as we can, but we can't do it without your help.

Please consider making a donation today so we can save more precious and innocent animals like these. No donation is too small and every bit helps. There are so many more who need our help.

Double the fluff, double the love, this dynamic duo is ready to find a place to call home. Meet Steel and Nala! ✨

Steel is a three year old Bernese Mountain Dog who is bonded to his best friend Nala, a three year old Saint Bernard. Their bond is as special as their gentle, sweet personalities. At about 100 pounds each, they're truly gentle giants! 💕

Nala and Steel are both house trained, get along well with other dogs, are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all vaccines. Life is better with two - and these two will bring more joy than you could ever imagine! Interested in scheduling a meet and greet? Fill out an adoptions survey at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Dog and our team will get in touch! Our dog shelter (1520 Union Hill Road in Cu***ng, GA) is open by appointment only.

Allow us to introduce you to a few super cool kitties at our Petsmart Midtown adoption center! ✨🐱

🖤 Spritzer - a 1.5 year old playful and curious girl with a love for water! You can often find her dipping her paws into the water bowl and splashing around. We're positive that if you turned the faucet on for her, she'd fall in love with you.

🤎 Veranda - a 2 year old lady with a gentle soul and quiet nature. Her love is subtle but deep and she'll repay your kindness with quiet companionship and a heart full of trust.

🧡 Sadie - this 2.5 year old girl is clever and sassy, with a strong personality that commands attention. She's quick-witted, charming, and will do anything for a tasty treat.

Please come visit us at the Midtown Petsmart (650 Ponce De Leon Avenue, Atlanta, GA 30308) and meet these lovely ladies! 💕 Fill out an adoption survey for Spritzer, Veranda, or Sadie at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FKDS/Cat.

Welcome to the first 2025 weekly recap at Furkids! It's been a busy first week of the year, and we are ready to save lives together in this brand new year. Here' what happened this week at Furkids! ✨

🐾 Happy tails to Banks and Carrot, our first two adoptions of 2025!
💍 Shiloh Gardens saw its final wedding of 2024 on Monday. So many incredible celebrations happened here in 2024, and we can't wait for what's to come in 2025!
🐈 We brought in eleven kitties to our East Cobb location for our final intake of 2024. Cheers to new beginnings and second chances!
🐶 We started off our new year's resolutions strong at Puppy Yoga on Thursday!
🌳 Volunteers from the Forsyth County Parks & Recreation team came by to volunteer. They helped us remove all of the hearts from our Tree of Life for the new year. Each heart represents a life we have saved and adopted to a loving home. Our goal this new year is 4,500 adoptions!
📖 Girl Scout Troop 20085 came to our headquarters today to drop off donations, remove leaves from our tree of life, & read to our cats! We are so grateful for everyone who comes to volunteer with us.

We can't wait to take you along next week for another Weekly Recap at Furkids! 🧡
