🐾 Meet Roscoe – The Grumpy-Faced Sweetheart with a Heart of Gold 💛

At around 2 years old, Roscoe is a charming young man 🐱 with an unforgettable “grumpy old man” face 😾 and a big personality to match. Though he may be slow to trust, beneath that skeptical stare 👀 is a cat full of quiet affection, curious habits, and the potential for a deep bond 🫶.

Roscoe is a fiend for treats 🍗, a fan of sunbeams ☀️, and a lover of tunnels and quiet spots 🛏️ where he can nap in peace. He thrives in calm environments 🕊️ and would enjoy the company of respectful dog 🐶 and kitty 🐱 companions. Older children 👧👦 who understand boundaries and a peaceful pace are a must.

Roscoe is looking for a patient, understanding family 🏡 that will give him the time and space he needs to settle in and feel safe 💤. After fending for himself in the outdoors and nearly dying from a terrible respiratory infection and anemia, he is still adapting to the safety and comforts of indoor life.

He may never be a lap cat—and that’s okay. What he offers instead is something just as special: trust earned 🤝, affection on his terms 💕, and the joy of seeing a shy cat slowly open up 🌱.

If you’re someone who appreciates the quieter victories of pet companionship 🌟, Roscoe might just be the perfect match. 🐾

Meet Petunio – Your Future Bunny Bestie! 🐰💕

Petunio is a young, energetic bun with tons of personality and affection to share! He’s a sunbather at heart and loves lounging on rugs and blankets, soaking up the warmth. If you’ve got comfy beds and soft blankets, you’re already on his good side! 🛏️☀️

A highly social and friendly bunny, Petunio is happiest when he’s exploring and spending time with his humans. He’s a bit shy about being picked up (like most bunnies) but is quickly won over with fresh treats like fruits and veggies – a sure way to win his heart! 🥕🍓

Petunio gets along with other bunnies, though he’s a bit selective, and he’s currently coexisting peacefully with both cats and dogs in his foster home. He’s free-roaming and uses a litterbox like a champ, so be prepared to bunny-proof your space for his adventures. 🏡🐾

Like all exotic pets, Petunio needs daily socialization and time with his family to stay happy and healthy. He’s well-behaved for nail trims, annual exams, and even gland cleaning – this bun is ready to be a superstar in your life!

If you're ready to open your heart and home to this adorable bun, start the adoption process by applying today!

🐾 Meet Human – The Gentle Giant with a Heart of Gold 🐾

At 5 years old, Human is a large, handsome tomcat with a classic brown tabby coat, white paws, and a snowy chest to match. This neutered, 13 pounds of sweetheart is the purrfect mix of laid-back and loving. He’s a mellow guy who enjoys napping on the couch, watching Cat TV, and following his favorite humans from room to room just to be near them. Talk to him, and he’ll listen—he truly enjoys the sound of your voice.

Once left behind and fending for himself, Human was lucky enough to find one of our kindhearted volunteers who gave him warmth, food, and affection. When she had to move away, she made sure he didn’t get left behind again—and now he’s ready for a real forever home.

Human has adjusted beautifully to indoor life—it’s clear he missed it more than anything. He’s good with respectful dogs under 20lbs (with a slow intro), and he's open to feline friends once he's had time to settle in. All he really wants is a soft place to land, someone to talk to, and a cozy spot by your side.

If you are able to support us — through a donation to our GoFundMe or by sharing our fundraiser — it directly helps us keep the animals warm, fed, safe, and cared for during a difficult season.

**❄️ Winter Update: Rising Needs, Limited Resources, and Animals Still Waiting ❄️**
These years have taken a heavy toll on our small rescue. Due to the high volume of animals we cared for throughout the year, our resources — both human and physical — have been stretched to the breaking point. The intensive workload has resulted in a significant decline in caregiver health, and the home that functions as our primary rescue space has also experienced major strain and wear.

As we enter the coldest months, we are facing:
✅ HVAC unit and ventilation non-operational
✅ Repairs and maintenance needed from heavy rescue use
✅ Increased medical limitations for our primary caregiver
✅ **adoptable animals still in our care with no applications submitted**

These animals rely on this house for warmth, safety, and daily care until their forever homes come. But winter adds additional pressure we cannot meet alone.

💛 **Donate or share here:** https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-rebuild-after-rainbow-rescue-retreat

Thank you for standing with us and helping these animals weather the winter.

Running Rainbow Rescue & Retreat came at a serious personal cost. Caring for… Sephie Lee needs your support for Help Us Rebuild After Rainbow Rescue & Retreat

🐾 Meet Koopa Troopa! 🐾
This stunning red & white husky was rescued in 2023 after surviving heartbreaking abuse—and now she’s ready to find her forever home! ❤️

Koopa is playful, affectionate, and full of life. She loves adventures, long walks, belly rubs, and splashing in water or mud puddles (you’ve been warned 😂). She’s also a total snuggle bug who could happily watch Moana all day!

She’s brilliant, eager to please, and would thrive with someone active or familiar with working breeds. Koopa attends public events as one of our ambassadors—she’s a fan favorite everywhere she goes!

💖 Koopa’s Perfect Match:
• Active family or adventure buddy
• Secure yard & supervision (classic husky escape artist)
• No small animals
• Either another playful dog or happy as the star of the show
• Someone patient & knowledgeable about PICA (she eats items she shouldn't)

Koopa is spayed, vaccinated, HW-, microchipped, and ready to love big. She eats Purina Sensitive Skin & Stomach + supplements and has worked through major recovery and rehab—this girl is a survivor with the brightest spirit. 🌈

✨ Let’s make this the year Koopa Troopa finds her happily ever after! ✨

Meet Franny – The Chatty Queen of Hearts 👑🐾

Franny is a 15-year-old spayed female domestic medium hair cat with a gorgeous calico coat and a personality full of charm and sass 😻 She’s affectionate, talkative, and always ready to share her thoughts—usually about snack time or how you're sitting in her spot.

This queenly senior is a one-cat kind of gal 👑 She loves dogs 🐶 and is totally fine with birds 🐦, guinea pigs 🐹, and rats 🐀—but she has no interest in coexisting with other cats. She knows she deserves to be the star of the show 🌟

Franny may be older, but she hasn’t lost her sparkle ✨ She has some arthritis in her back legs and hips, so she prefers soft beds, a bit of help accessing her favorite perches, and a tall or hooded litterbox for comfort 🚽 She’s also prone to matting, so regular brushing is a must 💇‍♀️ and she does best on hairball-control food with the occasional bit of cat lax 🍽️

She loves to follow her humans around the house, supervising chores, "helping" with projects, or simply being involved in everything you do 👀🛠️🧹 She's got a strong sense of presence and doesn’t like being left out of the action!

At night 🌙 Franny loves nothing more than curling up by your legs—or stealing your pillow if you’re not paying attention 😼🛏️ She’s a loyal bedtime buddy and the perfect foot-warmer, with just a dash of mischief 💕

Franny is looking for a calm, loving home 🏡 where she can live out her golden years in comfort, surrounded by admiration, conversation, and cozy blankets. Think you have what it takes to be her royal subject? 👸

🐰✨ Meet Moonpie — A Sweet, Shy Snack-Loving Bunny ✨🐰

Moonpie was sadly dumped and left to fend for himself, so he looks a little rough right now. But every day, he’s getting furrier and friendlier as he adjusts and heals. 💙 He’s very shy and nervous at first, needing patience and calm to feel safe. Once he trusts you, he’ll show his true sweet nature. Banana is the way to his heart! 🍌

Personality:
Quiet and shy — needs a calm, quiet home to feel comfortable 🤫
LOVES snacks and treats — a great motivator for bonding! 🥕🍎
Slowly curious, but prefers gentle, gradual introductions 🌱
Would do best with someone who understands bunny body language and gives him time 💕

Ideal Home:
Moonpie is litter box trained ✅ and prefers free roam only—no cage life for this guy! 🏡🐇 He would thrive in a peaceful environment with patient people who can help him build confidence. He’s not a fan of loud noises or chaotic spaces. Older children or adults who know how to handle shy rabbits gently would be perfect.

Care Notes:

Fresh hay, leafy greens, and plenty of water are musts! 🍃💧
Snacks and treats help build trust and brighten his day ✨
Needs daily supervised playtime in a safe, bunny-proofed area 🎾
Regular grooming, proper care, and diet will keep his coat soft and healthy

Adoption Info:
If you think you can give Moonpie the calm, loving home he deserves, please apply! He’s ready to find a patient friend to call family. ❤️🙏

🐾 Meet Angus – The King of Playtime & Cuddles! 👑

Say hello to Angus, a young Domestic Shorthair with a huge personality and an even bigger heart! This handsome boy has called Rainbow Rescue & Retreat home for the past two years, charming everyone with his goofy antics and lovable sass. Now that our sanctuary has closed permanently, it’s time for Angus to find a forever family of his own.

Angus is equal parts playful, sassy, and sweet — the total package for anyone looking for a furry friend who keeps life exciting. He thrives with other pets, especially feline friends who love to wrestle and play as much as he does. While he’s not a fan of being picked up, he’s all about snuggling on his own terms, and there’s nothing better than when he curls up in your lap for a well-earned cuddle. 💕

Underneath his confident exterior, Angus is a total softie. He still loves to make biscuits and even suckles on his favorite blankets — proof there’s a little kitten still in him!

To keep him happy and engaged, Angus loves toys that challenge his clever mind — think lasers, wand toys, and puzzle feeders. He’ll also need a cat tree (or two!) to survey his kingdom and keep an eye on his loyal subjects.

He’s comfortable around respectful dogs, but smaller pets like birds or hamsters aren’t his thing.

If you’re searching for a fun, goofy, and affectionate companion who will rule your heart (and your home), Angus is your guy. He’s waited patiently for his chance — and now he’s ready to rule his forever castle. 🏰💖

Say hello to Macadamia, our vibrant blue Quaker, and Archimedes, our playful green-cheek Conure! This bonded pair is the ultimate dynamic duo — full of personality, energy, and endless chatter. Wherever one goes, the other is sure to follow, and together they’ll keep your home lively and full of joy. 🦜 ✨

Archimedes came to us as a surrender from a pet store because he was shutting down and unsellable. He was shy and a little depressed at first, but thanks to Macadamia, he learned how to be a confident, playful bird. She helped bring him out of his shell and taught him the ropes of bird life — and now he’s full of curiosity, personality, and charm.

Macadamia has a history of respiratory sensitivities, but she’s strong, happy, and thriving now. She’s full of personality and loves hanging out near her favorite humans (the more social of the pair), chattering away, and interacting with toys and perches.

These two love to entertain — they mimic cat meows, laughter, and even the occasional phrases like “what doing?” or “dammit!” They enjoy being near people, but aren’t interested in being handled, preferring to interact from their safe perches.

Macadamia and Archimedes are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Because of their unique personalities and needs, extensive bird research and bird proofing of your home is required before adoption, and they are available foster-to-adopt only. Their forever home must respect their personalities, provide space, enrichment, and care, and be ready for their chatter-filled adventures.

✨ Ready to welcome a pair of resilient, lively, and hilariously charming birds into your life? Apply to foster-to-adopt Macadamia & Archimedes today! ✨
