Wanted to share with everyone that after Nellies vet felt it was time, she perked up and Penny took her for a second opinion. He felt while close she was still having good days and so her 1st euthanasia date was canceled. With the warmer weather in November, she really had great days, filled with walks, car rides, food adventures, wriggling on the grass and being loved on by her caregivers. Once the weather became cooler, Penny got her a warm blue coat and more straw for her house, and then in Dec moved her to her home. Nellie loved exploring the back yard, laying in the sun, and eating home cooked meals. This gave her from Oct 25th to December 6th. While not enough time, it was wonderfully spent. Thank you to Jon for notifying Silver Linings of her condition and getting the owners to relinquish her, Penny Black for being a forever foster mom, and Jan Bland for giving Nellie a place to go to in the wonderful kennels as well as being a care giver to Nellie. Nellie absolutely loved her kennel. It was her true home.
Nellies last week was being spoiled, then on December 5th, she stopped eating and in her wellness check, it was found the mass was larger. Penny took her the next morning and the vet agreed it was time and she peacefully was put to sleep. We all know Nellie bean is running in heaven. Here are some pictures of her time and adventures with us. Nellie was a sweet soul who deserved to live her entire life this way, not just 5 months and 2 weeks. That said. We did everything we could to make up for lost time and she was/is so well loved. Miss her tail wag when I was coming to see her.--- Kathy

Beau is a 9 year old neutered male catahoula hound who gets along with other dogs. We don’t know about cats or kids. He is UTD on most of his vaccinations (see photo). He is located in Woodstock, Georgia. We do not have him in Indiana. His owner is going into assisted living and we have until tomorrow (Thursday, December 12th) to find him a foster or new home. He was described as "shy at first and barks but warms up pretty quickly. Not aggressive. Doesn’t bite. He needs to have someone give him a job!"

If you can help, PLEASE message us. Please share. Beau has a ride to Indiana, but we are happy to help coordinate his arrival anywhere between Woodstock, Georgia and Bloomington, Indiana.

I recently had a patient who had a dog and adopted a 2nd then passed suddenly. The second dog was already pregnant and had 6 puppies 10/8/24. She is a chi/min pin mix and of the 6, only the blonde puppy isn't spoken for. Also the 2 adult dogs will be rehomed. Since mom needs vaccinations and spay, thought I would show the 2 that will be available. Coco, the adult was very withdrawn but the foster has really made her feel safe and coco's personality just shines. There will be adoption fee to cover care: spayed, utd on vaccinations, heartworm negative and prevention given. Shes not crate trained, will use p*e pads and goes outside to potty if available. Im sure she will need more work with potty habits. She was heavy and has lost several pounds. She does well with other dogs, no small children as they are learning boundaries and may infringe, but older children would be fine. Cats unknown.
The puppy, male has had his 1st vet visit. Great checkup, 1st vaccinations given. He also is doing well on p*e pads. Dna test done and results pending.

We're happy to report that Muffy is settling in nicely in her new home! We checked last night and she was snoozing on this bed in the living room. It's a bit of a Goldilocks situation because apparently she has a ton of beds to choose from, but she decided this one was juuuuust right!

Muffy with her new mom. Muffy has been through a lot but we feel certain she's in good hands! Sigrid is an animal lover who started the Owen County animal shelter many years ago with her husband.

And thanks to Pets Alive for getting Muffy all set up with her vaccinations and rabies!

Good news! Muffy is going to a new home on December 3rd!

Meet Muffy, a 12 year old Shih Tzu/Bichon. She should be about 15 pounds, but she's gained weight and could stand to lose a few pounds.

She's good with children, cats are unknown, but she didn't seem to mind them when they were around her outside. Dogs are good, she's not UTD on shots, but is on flea treatment. She is spayed.

Muffy has been through a lot lately. She sat by her owner for over 48 hours while she was having a medical emergency. Muffy is housetrained, but will use p*e pads.

She comes with a basket of goodies, like food and pads. Muffy deserves a nice retirement home, but that doesn't mean she's nearing the end quite yet! She's still full of energy and a zest for life. This will be her third home, so we're hesitant to place her into foster while we look for a home.

If you're interested in meeting Muffy, please reach out! We offer a foster to adopt program so you can ensure Muffy fits into your home. Belly rubs are the key to her heart! You can find out adoption application under the Contact page on our website: https://silverliningsrescue.org/contact-us/

We love this idea. If you're interested in taking photos with your senior pets, please reach out to Project Alf! She is experienced with senior dogs and appreciates the bond between owners and senior pets. After all, November is Senior Pet Month!

November is Senior Pet Awareness Month!

This month holds significance to those currently caring for pets in their golden years, as well as those who have loved their pet until their time came to cross the rainbow bridge 🌈 May we continue to honor the unique bond and gratitude senior animals bestow upon their loving owners.

In honor of this month, let’s work to get the word out on the Project Alf mission! Our historic good boy, Alf (pictured here) was a simple man and has a simple request for our Project Alf followers… At the top of our page, click the three dots under the cover image and select “Invite friends” to share our mission with the Southern and Central Indiana community. Every share and like is immensely appreciated by our family!

Comment with a picture to show off your favorite senior pets (current and past)! Throughout this month and in the future, may we all continue to advocate that golden years deserve golden memories ❤️

We have to make a public apology...for not sharing this adorable photo yesterday!! Buddy Fox is a senior gentleman whose family didn't want him after his owner passed away. Lucky for him, we already had a foster approved and one phone call later, he had a new home!

THIS is why it's so important to become a pre-approved foster! If you're interested in finding your Buddy Fox, let us know and we can get you pre-approved!! **Cowboy hat not included

Mission & Information

We envision a world where all senior dogs and cats live in healthy, loving, and supportive environments.

Our Mission is to support senior dogs and cats by finding homes, providing education and resources, and encouraging healthy relationships between people and their pets in and around Monroe County, Indiana.

Silver Linings Rescue, a 501 (c)(3), was formed to support both people and animals. For many senior people, their pet is the strongest constant in their life. It is the reason they get up each morning. Their pet is their confidant and provides a huge source of joy and purpose. But seniors can often be at risk of losing their beloved pet for a variety of reasons. From housing issues to pet care costs, mobility challenges to needed medical care, balancing the senior person's needs with the pure joy and companionship a pet brings is an important issue facing senior people in our community. And as animal shelters continue to be full, we can contribute to the solution of lightening the shelter's burden by actively looking for those senior people in need of support to keep their pets our of shelter and in loving homes. Silver Linings Rescue helps problem solve, finds resources and, when needed, provides hands on support so that both the pet and the person stay together.

We are also actively developing a Senior to Senior matchmaking program to match senior people with senior shelter/rescue pets and provide ongoing support for both.
