Welcome to the M kittens! These guys are about 5-6 weeks old and were clearly taken care of by a mother because they are healthy babies. We wish people would wait to get the mom if they are going to bring kittens to the shelter 😿 1 girl (light orange one) and 3 boys! They are available to foster two or four together, but we will not be separating them Individually until we can better assess them to see who needs to stay together. Thank you to our friends at Granville County Shelter for getting them to us!

Perfect post by our friends with Triangle Beagle Rescue of North Carolina: We're seeing an unprecedented return rate of rescue dogs lately, and it breaks our hearts. These loving animals deserve a chance to be part of your family, despite life's ups and downs. Remember, when you commit to a rescue dog, it's for life.

🌟 Moving? You can move with your dog! Many rental properties welcome pets, and it's an adventure you can share together.

🌟 Behavior Issues? Seek out a professional trainer. With patience and consistency, your dog can overcome challenges.

🌟 Expecting a Baby? Dogs and babies can coexist beautifully. With proper introductions and boundaries, they can become best friends.

🌟 Busy Schedule? Many of us juggle work and pets. Establish a routine, consider doggy daycare, or find a trusted dog walker.

Returning a rescue dog should never be the first option. They need time to adjust, just like we do. Give them love, patience, and understanding. They will reward you with unconditional loyalty and companionship. Let's show our rescue dogs the forever love they deserve. Please, don't give up on them when life gets tough.

✨✨FRANZ IS ADOPTED✨✨ So many of you met him, so many of you fell in love with him, but no one applied for him 💔 Until a foster came forward who needed a dog who was good with kids- this is the guy! He joined carpool duty, matched their emotions when they didn’t get what they wanted, and found his forever fam. Mazel tov to Elizabeth and her family on getting the very best dog ever. We love and will miss you, Franz!

Had a good vet visit for Magnifico the Tux and Nova. Both were re-checks to check for improvements in the health: Nova’s dry eyes and Magnifico because he still won’t eat. 😿 NOVA: we found out that she can’t close her eyes completely when she blinks, so this explains why part of her eyeball is very dry and crusty, even with twice daily drops and lubricant. So we got her on a stronger eye med, but she’ll need it for the rest of her life. MAGNIFICO: no FIV or FELV, nothing remarkable in bloodwork, no lymphoma seen when cell sample was taken. So we got him on a steroid and a much stronger antibiotic and hopefully that will get him eating! He’d lost almost a whole pound from last visit 💔 Please support our necessary veterinary visits by contributing an amount monthly. They deserve it!

Every year on the Anniversary of her adoption from Neshama, London's adopters make a donation in her honor - to help other animals just like her. It is not only generous, it is thoughtful and we appreciate it so much! If you have adopted an animal from us, please consider this kind gesture so that we can continue our work of saving North Carolina's animals. We love you, London!

We have 27 (!) kittens in the rescue under 5 months old. We get asked literally every day (often multiple times a day) to take in more and we can only keep doing that if we have people willing to foster these sweet cuties.

If you can't foster, we could use your help with supplies and donations to help care for these babies.

Visit https://www.neshamarescue.org/support/donate-supplies for some links to our Amazon, Chewy, and Pet Supplies Plus - Cary, NC wish lists!

Donations are also welcome to help us buy supplies and pay for needed veterinary care! https://secure.givelively.org/donate/neshama-animal-rescue-inc

🖤🤍 Rowan 🤎🖤 This 4 month old hound pup is ready for his next adventure! His foster mama reports : He is doing very well with crate training. Loves the house dogs and he’s getting comfy in a bed! Today he stuck his whole face in a water bowl we keep outside & put his feet in there while drinking. 😂 Rowan would do best as a buddy dog so he can have a bestie and playmates.

Super Nova got her eyes checked out today at our vet and she can see light and shadows! We are putting many drops of different medicines in her eyes, which were matted open for who knows how long, and it is the one thing that remains from her years of neglect. Her spirit is bright, her appetite is normal and she’s ready to be snuggled full time! See pic in the comments of the day we got her, not even a week ago!

This is Breyer and her sister, Patch. They came from a hoarding case where their mama died, so they are not socialized and are terrified currently. We will get them into a loving foster home who is going to work on their fear, and we will be getting them spayed and up to date on shots as of tomorrow! We hope to see them blossom, as we all do, with love. ❤️

💥K I T T E N Z💥 Got the best kittens today from our shelter partner Davidson County. So thankful to the many people who coordinated to make it possible 🐾🙏🏽 Thank you to all who stood up to save these 7, though we had to leave many behind for potential euthanasia. Have friends and family out of state who want to adopt? Have them contact us and we are willing to work with them on helping good families adopt them!

🛑🛑🛑 CODE RED! These babies (and many more) will be killed for space if we can’t get them out of the shelter. Fostering is always free, and all you need is a spare bathroom or guest bedroom. If you can help us save lives, please apply now: www.neshamarescue.org

Goldfish's stay at NC State College of Veterinary Medicine & Veterinary Hospital took a little bit longer than we hoped, but he is now back home and resting comfortably with his foster family.

His total veterinary bill came to $3,349.42. Thanks to the generosity of our donors including his foster parents and Rocky's Bridge, Inc. we are only $530 away from fully covering his surgery!

PLEASE consider a donation to help us help this sweet angel see.

Today was one of the worst things we have seen to date. Turned into a shelter partner by her *OWNERS* who said she was a stray (her microchip leads to them), she is now permanently blind from HER EYES BEING MATTED OPEN. The shelter gingerly shaved around her eyes to see if she could see after that, but not blinking for who knows how long has left her blind. We rushed her to our kind groomer who took her on and relieved her of her misery - this was nothing short of a true mitzvah. Now Nova (meaning “new”) or SuperNova, is resting after a very weird day. We appreciate the outpouring of love for her. It has had a heavy affect on us. as rescuers, and we need some time to really heal and she will need that time as well. It is a hard thing to witness animal cruelty in your community. Please pray for her healing and ours- and donate as you are able, for her care. Scroll to see her after pic. Donate.neshamarescue.org. Thank you to Paige, her groomer, and to our shelter worker friends.

This is a small *very small* sampling of the emails we get BEGGING us to take kittens or cats who are found around people’s homes or workplaces. We cannot take them unless we have 1. Foster homes, 2. Donations for their vetting. We do not want to discourage people from helping strays by saying “no we can’t help”, so we need more resources for when folks ask us for help, we can do it. When we help community kittens or cats, we are curbing the overpopulation problem head on and THAT is a critical part of our mission! Help us achieve our goals of a non-overpopulated community! 🐾🐾🐾

The image attached shows our Facebook audience by gender. Is this why one of the most common refrains we hear from women is "My husband would never allow us to foster/adopt/add another dog/cat"? Maybe if more men followed us, and other rescues, and saw the terrible COMMUNITY problem that exists, they wouldn't always be saying NO. Men are a part of the problem, so they should be a part of the solution too 🐾 We challenge y'all to get more men in your lives to "Follow" us on here so they can be educated!

This is Pancho. He is 12. His mom had been living in their car for 2.5 years because she couldn’t take him to the women’s shelter with her but she hit her max today and had to surrender him. He is terrified and lost. We couldn’t pull him because we have no one to foster him. 🐾Unless you do? 🐾He is loving but terrified in this setting. He was living with another dog so we know he is good with dogs, but will need a place to decompress and feel love again. PLEASE. 🐾
