ADOPTION PENDING
I’m only one year old. Can somebody please give me a chance? There have been no applications on me and really am such a sweet boy who just wants to have a lot of love and play with toys. I would be such a great addition to any household. I am neutered, FIV tested, vaccinated, dewormed, and micro chipped. Please come and see me at the Petco in Bismarck.!
Animal Abuse
With small changes we can make a big difference in our community for animals. You must Be Your Own Hero! 1. Supervise your pets.
2. Know and abide by city ordinances. 3. Don’t be part of the over population problem. Spay and neuter. It’s a priority. 4. Report abuse ( in detail)
With the pizza timer going off, the dog barking, doorbell ringing, dryer beeping and grandkids playing, I attempt to explain animal abuse and what can be done. Listen if you dare.
Impound Policy
We were notified that the Mandan Impound will enact new policies. Starting immediately animals at the Mandan Impound will be held for the mandatory five days. (This hold is in place to allow the owner to claim the animal.) Following the five-day hold, if not claimed, the animal will be held for an additional 48 hours at which time the animal can be adopted into a new home or be taken by another rescue. If the animal has not been adopted or taken in by another rescue after 48 hours, then impound will euthanize the animal. This crisis is being caused by owners who will not spay, neuter, microchip or tag their pets. It’s a sad day that our town will have to start euthanizing because we have so many animals that are uncared for. This is truly heartbreaking.
Blue Hay in Feeder
Lots of feeders this year for the cats to watch from the indoor habitats to keep them entertained this winter. Had this little visitor today.
Van Gogh
On a nice cool fall morning I like to run. I am old now so I no longer run like the wind, but I can sure run like the breeze.
(Van Gogh was born at the rescue almost 15 years ago when his unsocialized mother arrived very pregnant He had a very very rough start with illness. He has been active in horse camps, parades, knows how to paint, play the piano and his favorite, ring his tambourine and ring Christmas bells. He has helped volunteers who have fear of horses by teaching them proper horse care. He is a friend to all.

Animal Cruelty Rant
Animal cruelty rant explained.
Edit to post:
The alleged abuse video was posted to TikTok or Instagram. We are uncertain. I viewed it on Facebook, but I’m sure that was likely by third-party. So we want to be clear that it was posted to some sort of social media not maybe Facebook per se.
Also the video was shown but no sound.
Thanks to Puppy Salon for taking an entire day to groom the sanctuary cats. As we unloaded them from kennels they also got dewormed and ears treated preventatively as well. Ready for winter. Look at all the hair that got shed!
