This juvenile woodchuck was found outside in distress yesterday. We got it hydrated and he survived the night. He is off to a licensed wildlife rehabber today. All wildlife rehabbers volunteer their time and buy their own supplies. We ask that you consider giving a small donation. Even $5.00 helps. We will make sure they get it. Thank you.

Adoption update!!!!

Hi Rachel...
Just checking in to let you know how Tyco is. First of all, he's an amazingly sweet boy and very quick to learn. We've already taken a few short walks and he's even met his grandparents 😁. He knows exactly where to go to the bathroom and is great about letting us know when he has to go outside. Last night he slept through the night ... mostly on his beddie. He loves the little possum you guys sent him home with and I also got him a Nylabone, although I don't think he knows quite what to do with it yet, lol.
He's learning very quickly how to walk on the leash and is very social. So far the cats and he are coexisting peacefully 😁.
We decided to change his name to "Bow," named after David Bowie, because he has two different colored eyes. He not only has a sweet personality, but he's also a gorgeous little boy.
I want to thank you and your staff for taking such wonderful care of him, especially in the condition he was in when he arrived. It is obvious that you do that for all the fur babies that come your way.🩷
I'm attaching a few pictures so you can see how nicely he's adjusting to his new home. We love and adore him already!
I'm looking forward to going to the training with him and learning some new things, as well as helping him be the best and happiest little guy he can be.
Take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend.🤗
-Heather & Jim Z.

This little sick skunk was rescued by us today and is off to a licensed wildlife rehabber. Rehabbers do this on their own dime for the love of animals. Please consider making a small donation and we will make sure to get the money to them. Even $5.00 helps. Thank you.

We are beyond thrilled to announce that Tyco has been adopted by very experienced and wonderful people. From being abandoned filthy and sick in a crate he will now live the life of luxury.

Have a good life, Tyco!

We are beyond thrilled to announce that W***y Wonka was adopted and has a family to call his own. He is such a good boy. We will miss him but we are so happy.

Please share and help spread the word. This poor deformed turtle was found on Marina Dr, in the road, by Good Samaritan’s. We were able to take it in and provide it care temporarily. It’s a non-native red-eared slider so it was released by a human at some point. A Shedding Chance Reptile Rescue has agreed to take it in and give it a home. They have named it Pickles. However, it’s expensive to set up a permanent humane habitat and care for it. Please consider making a small donation. Even $5.00 helps. We will make sure the donations go directly to the rescue. Thank you!

Please click share and help us spread the word. Thanks!

This Mom(Rosie) & Son(Milo Jr.) duo are very bonded and looking for a home together. Both are sweet as can be. They would do well with other dogs and families.

They are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, negative for disease and microchipped. Adoption fees are waived to qualified candidates.

Good morning, I just wanted to send an update on Cinnabun. It's been almost 2 and 1/2 years ago that we rescued him from your shelter and we have been in love ever since!

When I was at the Mother's Day plant sale, I told one of the volunteers I would send an updated photo of his area.

Cinnabun is free roam 24/7. That picture above is his own personal room setup complete with a Barbie house made out of cardboard that he enjoys chewing, squishmallows, water fountains, tunnels, extra snuggly blankets and of course tons of treats!

Thank you for all you do for the animals!

Tuesday Tip:
🛫🚢🏖️ As Summer Vacation time is upon us, PLEASE do your due diligence when looking for a pet sitter. 🐱🐶🐈🐕‍🦺
Don’t just hire anybody. Please get referrals and references. Having an insured and experience pet sitter is best.
Never allow them to have your dog off leash. They will not behave the same way with strangers as they will with you. 🦮
You will have a much better vacation, knowing your fur babies are in good hands.
Happy summer 😎☀️🍉

Sadly, this poor dog, we named Tyco, was dumped outside our building on Friday night in a dirty and stinky crate. He smells like ci******es, skin infection, f***l matter & urine. He also had diarrhea and was vomiting. We have gotten him cleaned up and stable but he will be needing a host of tests and treatments.

Please consider making a donation to help pay for his veterinary bills and future maintenance.

If anyone has any information regarding who may have dumped them off please email [email protected] or call 203-385-4068.

He is not available for adoption at this time.

Please share and help spread the word. Thanks.

Mochi’s big adventure. Mochi had a spa day today. ACO Solveira furminated and provided a full body massage and then Mochi was chauffeured around the Greenway. She loved it! She met dogs, saw birds, sights and heard interesting sounds.

We hope to raise $200.00 to cover her veterinary costs. Please consider. Even $5.00 helps.

She would make an excellent companion. She is spayed, vaccinated, negative for disease and microchipped. Her adoption fee is waived.
