We helped get these potentially dumped dogs to Char-Will's German Shepherd Rescue last week.

Do you know these dogs?? They have not been claimed.

At the Red Creek Wildlife capture and transport class today, they talked about this handy little phone plug in.

I'd very much like to purchase one of these for TNR!

Hearing that this exists and is relatively affordable, I almost cried thinking of that single baby kitten I never found on that river bank. If I'd have had this, I'd have been able to see that baby if it was still there.

If you'd like to contribute toward this goal, please follow the link to my payment app options. Specify it's for this! Otherwise, I'm buying kitten food because we need that too.

We are small rescue working on 501c3 status & focusing on feral-born kittens.

PSA as this brutal summer kicks off.

Those igloo domes or wooden houses are not adequate access to shelter in extreme heat!

Also, your dog needs time to acclimate to temperature changes or they're more susceptible to heat related illness and death. Keep that in mind.

Pavement is scorching! Keep those doggies home or put on booties!

Catch of the day, these four 6 week olds.

2 calico females
2 grey & white males

Please consider donating toward their care. They will need ongoing food, shots, and spay/neuter, plus anything additional that crops up as it always does!

This kitty appeared at TNR site. It stays opposite of the street. It appears this friendly kitty was abandoned when the people moved and now it tries to get into the home someone else has moved into.

Would anyone possibly have a place for this kitty if I catch it? It is already spayed I'm told.

Although our primary focus is on feral-born kittens, we also have a deep love for dogs. We had the pleasure of spending time with two new female dogs at Char-Will's this past weekend.

The first dog we met was Fern, a charming and gentle 6-year-old female who has retired from breeding. She was incredibly sweet and playful, and she clearly enjoyed receiving affection and treats. While she needs some guidance in learning to take treats gently, we are confident that she will master this skill with time. Fern possesses a wonderful temperament that makes her a joy to be around.

The second dog we met was Kelsey, a curious and adventurous 4-year-old female. She demonstrated a friendly and well-balanced temperament, eagerly exploring her surroundings and accepting all forms of handling. Even when other dogs barked at her as she walked by, she remained unfazed and maintained her composure.

Both Fern and Kelsey are new to the organization, but we believe that they have the potential to get along well with other dogs. We are also open to testing their compatibility with cats, and they both behaved exceptionally well when interacting with my toddler.

Heat has rolled in and is here to stay. Keep your dogs and cats safe!

Don't let your dogs walk on the asphalt between 10am and sunset or later as temps in the upper 70s can lead to paw burns!

Remember that even in 60° weather, your pets can die from the heat in your cars so never leave them unattended!

Make sure your livestock guardian dogs and cat colonies have lots of water and shade to get cool.

We have been busy! And we need help.

Feral momma Girly went home finally.
Her kittens moved to a new foster, prepping for adoption.

River, the black cat who was starving abandoned in Reading went to a farm home!

We have puppy Lexy. She can open doors BTW 😳

We've been evaling another perfect GSD for National Disaster Dogs. 🤞

We also took in a bunny who appears to have been dumped in Reading.

Finally - we have miss Elsa, the white beauty who was abandoned pregnant at a barn. She's been very sick and so have her kittens. They've likely got coccidia. Momma hasn't eaten in days.

Please consider donating to help us cover the costs of all these animals, especially the appointments momma Elsa have gone through.

This is River
She is 1yrs old and FIV/FeLV negative.
She is spayed and vaccinated.

River was dumped along with 3 litters of kittens down a bank. She was the thinnest cat I've seen in person. She can't return to where she was not surviving well so she's seeking a barn home or other safe working situation.

There is a process to acclimating feral cats to new environments and you have to be willing to do that.

There's no fee, but you'll need to complete and application.

Unforunate update:this kitty was euthanized. They said it could have been rabies or poisoning. There was likely no saving this cat.

I am at Blue Pearl right now with this cat. Prayers and monetary donations are highly appreciated. Berks Cats in Crisis will be covering the bill.

The home owner offered to help and climbed into a pine tree to get him out. He got across the road and we finally cornered him in a shed. He's a fighter so I'm hoping they say he or she can be saved.

He's being triaged right now.
