😞Dumping animals is NEVER ok, dumping them on the hottest day of the year is unconscionable!!
🥵Today, in 107° heat, someone dumped a box of kittens in the bushes in front of our Vet Clinic.
😖Shortly afterwards, this man (pictured in comments) shoved a box of kittens in our staff members arms and sped off. Note the “don’t talk to me” hand.
Here’s what we would’ve told him if he respected us enough to stay and listen:

➡️We are a private rescue.
➡️We are NOT animal control/animal services.
➡️We are funded by donations, NOT government contracts, NOT the ASPCA.
➡️We, like all rescues & shelters have a “Capacity For Care”.
This means, in part, that we cannot take in more animals than we have staff and space to care for!
In the last 13 days we have taken in 20 kittens plus many puppies, some dumped at our facility and some we pulled for parvo treatment from our local animal control facilities.
👉🏼We are trying our hardest to help the abandoned animals in our community but WE ARE AT MAX CAPACITY!👈🏼

Can you help?
❗️We need foster heroes to help with the influx of kittens and puppies.
Vospca.org/foster

❗️We need donations to help with animal care costs.

❗️We need you to adopt!

❗️Please share this post and email if you recognize the man in the photos. [email protected]

☀️ Due to the heat we will be ending our Steps-4-Pets (Dog walking program) at 11:30am until the weather cools back down. 😮‍💨
🐾 Remember to help keep your pets paws safe during hot days! If the ground is too hot for your feet, it’s too hot for theirs AND if the car is too hot for you with no AC, it’s too hot for your animal. NEVER leave them unattended in a vehicle during warm weather. 🐶
😎 PS.. this handsome boy is available for adoption! Wyatt is a 5.5 year old Pit mix who’s patiently waiting for his forever home!🤎

😓 These 5 puppies were dumped at our gate Saturday morning. We had a family come in requesting surrender info at 10am and we gave them a list of local rescues since we are at max capacity and at 12pm when our staff were leaving to lunch we found the 5 pups with a bowl of food dumped at our gate. 2 hours these puppies were loose in a field under the sun. 😭 This month we’ve already had a puppy and a sick kitten dumped in a crate and cardboard box at our Clinic doorstep. 💔 (These will be the last two photos)

PLEASE spay and neuter your pets. 😢 PLEASE adopt to save a life. ❤️‍🩹 All of these puppies are looking for their forever homes! Make an adoption appointment on our website!

💔 Saturday afternoon these 5 bottle kittens were found tied in a bag and dumped in an onion field in Coalinga. Our hearts ache knowing that somebody could be so cruel, but we are so thankful for the Good Samaritan who saved them and to our employee who is fostering them.
🐱 We also took in the grey kitten who was found by himself on the hot sidewalk with a severe upper respiratory infection. Hes currently in foster care with another employee getting treated and cared for.
🐱 The tortie kitten was found in the street and brought in by the finder. She was dehydrated and had wounds that are currently getting treated for. She is recovering well in foster care.
💚 Donations help us continue helping cases like these. We are in need of KMR kitten formula, heating pads, and kitten bottles. You can donate directly through our website at vospca.org/donate and donations can be dropped off/mailed to 9800 Camp Drive Visalia, CA 93291 💚

🐱🐾We need your help to prepare for kitten season!🐾🐱
🌼 “Kitten Season” typically starts in early spring and lasts until fall, consisting of cats going into heat and birthing litters. Shelters and rescues quickly become overwhelmed with the amount of kittens that are brought in.
🌼We need all the help we can get during this time.
🐾Ways to help:
🌸Become a foster parent - apply online. Vospca.org/foster
We need foster parents for neonatal kittens who need to be bottle fed, pregnant and nursing mama cats, and litters of kittens. Foster parents are crucial during this time and allow us to intake more animals in need.
🌸Donate - Here are the items we need the most during this time. KMR Kitten formula, miracle ni***es, baby wipes, heating pads, purina kitten food, fancy feast kitten wet food, soft baby blankets, and pine litter. (Brands on the flyer)
🌸 Adopt - Adopting saves more than one life. 💘 Make an appointment online. Vospca.org/appointments
🌸 Spay and neuter your pets - Did you know a female cat can get pregnant as young as 4 months AND can get pregnant again as soon as 2 weeks after giving birth? 🙀
🌸 TNR - Reach out to your local animal control or Visalia Feral Cat Coalition for assistance to fix feral cats in your community.
🐾 Donations can be dropped off or shipped to our adoption center! 9800 Camp Drive Visalia, CA 93291

🐍🐍Rattlesnake season is HERE🐍🐍
Pets who may be considered for the vaccine include dogs:
👉Four months of age or older
👉Who are likely to be exposed to rattlesnakes at home
👉Who frequently go hiking, camping, or hunting
The rattlesnake vaccination stimulates the pet’s immune system to create antibodies against rattlesnake venom. If the dog is, at some point, injected with the venom, his or her body is better protected against the poison’s effects, giving you a longer timeframe to seek treatment.
Typically a pet will receive two vaccines about 4 weeks apart when being initially vaccinated. In a climate such as Central California, the vaccine only needs to be administered once yearly thereafter, ideally about a month before snake season ensues. If a pet spends time in areas where rattlesnakes are active year round, the vaccine needs to be administered every six months in order to maintain good immunity.
Aside from the vaccine, we also recommend snake avoidance training.
To schedule please visit our website www.vospca.org/vetappts
We also have many evening appointments available to accommodate your busy schedule.
