MATCH Marin Animal Transport to Caring Homes Tragically, the difference between life and death for a dog or a cat in the shelter system is minutes.

Oftentimes, they just need a soft spot to land for a day or two while fosters are lined up or other rescues are brought on to help. Our mission is to help give them the day or two they need to find placement and not end up in the back room when their time runs out. We are foster based and rely on our fosters and support base to help support short and long term placement of these animals. For long term animals in our program, we adopt them out directly!

Operation “find the kittens” in full swing. After this momma brought a 3 week old baby to the base of Moylans brewpub a few days ago, we have been looking for any others. It’s possible only one survived, but we are making sure by trying to stalk her back to her den. Once we either find them or determine there are no others, we will trap and fix and rehome her.

Look who got adopted! Muffin from our breakfast litter ended up being a “foster win” when her foster family realized they couldn’t imagine her leaving them. We are so happy for her, she scored an amazing family!

Adoption update. It’s been 8 weeks and the cat formally known as Willis Reed, now Finn, is preparing for St Paddy’s day by stretching his jaw for the anticipated Guinness foam and corned beef sandwich.

Some of us were born to have the wind in our hair, some of us prefer to just look pretty without it.

Grover update at almost 8 weeks. Fairly positive update for this boy. Dr and the surgeon examined the X-rays and while his right side has healed and calcified nicely, his left side has not. The right side has plates and hardware holding the fracture tighter, hence the healing. His left side had to be wired together. That side has a softer and fibrous connection at the bone.
They are confident that there is enough stability for Grover to just “be normal” now. No cone or supporting muzzle. So in the interest of keeping it simple, Grover will just have to avoid TSA scanners and Secret Service wands. He remains very cuddly, patient, quiet and loving. There is a chance his hardware could shift and need another procedure to mitigate any pain it could cause, but for now, this happy boy has time to bask in the sun and be carried on his walks. I’m hoping to adopt Grover out locally so he is close to my vet, just in case his hardware were to shift, he already knows the situation.

An elderly woman’s husband recently passed. He had a “pet” feral we were asked to trap and relocate.
This big girl defined the phrase “smarty cat”. After being trap trained, she knew even the slightest change in the trap meant trouble, right down to the plate she preferred to eat off.
But we got her

The first kittie family of the season!! We are so happy to be able to offer this sweet mama a wonderful foster home who will make sure they all are well taken care of.

No more street life, and no more reproducing! This is Mamas last litter, she only has snuggles and treats in her future, not babies! ❤️

Week 4 Grover update: it’s been a little over 4 weeks since the plates and wires pieced his jaw back together. Doc said the initial connection of bone during surgery has shifted a bit and it’s still not stable. We were hoping for more progress at this point for this boy. Otherwise he is pretty happy, loves his walks and eats well. He’s very loving and just wants to be held or sleeping against me 24/7. We are hoping for the best but starting to dread the next xray in a few weeks. St Paddy’s coming up and he needs some luck of the Irish

Isaac is in Riverside CA. We pulled him to give him the best chance. One vet recommended euthanasia already He is currently at ER vet locally and the plan was to handle these wounds whose cause are unknown. His neutrophil levels are low and we fear sepsis setting in. He is being hospitalized and put on iv fluids and antibiotics before any surgery to tend the wound. Hoping he still has fight in him and can live a complete life he deserves.

Adoption update for Bogie. He is getting bigger everyday and is so very loved.

Grover got to meet the boys today. I was wondering how they’d react to another dog. Since it was a positive meet, we will bring a dog we think is their mother to help put them more at ease.

3 week update on Grover: last Friday he was in extreme pain and not eating. After being sedated, doc found a broken pin from the plates in his jaw that he removed. Since then , Grover has been feeling much better. We are using a tape muzzle and cone of shame as well as some sedatives to keep his jaw stabilized and somewhat immobile. He has gained from 6.6lbs that Friday to 7.6lbs today. That’s a welcome change. We are getting some walks in and he is all tail wags. Just praying the jaw bones are fusing.

Update on the loose pups: Toni Price and I have been feeding them. Both have been trapped (accidentally) individually, but we need them together. They are too dependent on each other to be solo. The worry is he would panic and run in the highway. With the recent rains, trap training has stopped and we are focused on getting them food and shelter. Releasing was such a difficult decision, but the goal remains to capture them both. We hope to resume trap training in a few days and gain trust again.

Today was supposed to be the day we trapped these two pups. I goto misfired the trap and caught one. We had to release as these boys stick together and need each other overnight.
