Wichita Animal Action League

Lead welfare investigator Tess with a plea for outdoor pet owners! We are under a winter storm advisory so please bring your pets inside! For welfare checks: https://waalrescue.org/community/welfare-checks-form-page/ For doghouse assistance: https://waalrescue.org/dog-house-and-straw-assistance/ Supplies are limited! Please don’t assume every dog outside is outside 24/7 if you don’t know so. Dogs still have to go out to potty. But if you are reasonably certain an animal is in trouble please complete our welfare check request form at the link above.

Pets in Life in Planeview with Santa 2024

🐾Pets for Life! 🐾 You've heard us say this time and time again, but human welfare and animal welfare are very closely linked! Our clients in the Planeview neighborhood aren't just regular citizens to us. Many have become close friends so when we see that their little ones might not have much of a Christmas, our hearts just wouldn't allow us to not help. For the second year in a row, Santa joined the PFL team and other WAAL staff and volunteers to bring a bit of joy to the Planeview neighborhood! We provided gifts, stockings, and Christmas candy to over 40 low-income families! We'd like to say a special thank you to Mar & Lennon Dentistry, Smile Connections Family Dental, and local nonprofit, Little Moments- Big Dreams for helping us make this possible! (Please note that NO funds designated for our animal-related programs were used for this program.) The above businesses gave joy to so many kiddos this holiday season! We are so grateful for our Pets for Life program and all the opportunities we get to meet new people and pets, make friends, and help where we can! You have a few days left if you want to help support this amazing program in our community!

Your donation will have DOUBLE the lifechanging impact until December 31st!

💔 Sometimes the best intentions don't result in the best outcomes. 💔 Our welfare team members are often the first to have to witness cruelty and neglect. Some neglect is unintentional for various reasons, but the animals still need our help. This team has to make split second decisions sometimes on whether it would be best to offer owners resources and education or if owner surrender would be best for all involved. In this case, owner surrender was best as the owner just couldn't do what was needed to get these boys healthy again. These boys have a long road ahead of them. They each need to gain a lot of weight. They have bed sores which must heal, and they need all the standard vetting. They will be with us for quite awhile. Thank goodness for the foster who stepped up to save their lives! But we'll get them through it. We'll give them a future. Why? Because of YOU! Because of your ongoing support, donations, kindness, and advocacy! YOU all are responsible for the saving of so many lives in our community! The Craft Stuart Foundation was so impressed with the outcome of our first End of Year donation drive that they've agreed to do it again! They will match (for a second time!) up to $5000 between now and December 31st! For every donation you make, your kindness will have DOUBLE THE IMPACT! Please consider helping if you haven't already! No amount is too small. Every cent allows us to change lives in our community! Please click here to make a difference in a life today! https://event.auctria.com/8cd7398a-9e7a-4bec-bea8-3a532c7b8f1e/

We aren’t even sure that this video needs words. Just bask in the cuteness… 🤣🥰

Coffee Cake Kitty

I'm Coffee Cake. When not busy exploring or playing, I enjoy a good cuddle. I'm independent enough to entertain myself, but I'll never say no to a good play session. I'm a bit shy at first but warm up quickly. I use the litterbox like a gentleman and my sweet nature helps me get along with other cats, dogs and children. Adopt me and we can explore our world together! Learn more about me at https://waalrescue.org/adoptable-animal/?aid=7293&cid=18&tid=Cat

Taji - Adorable Black Kitty

Isn't Taji the cutest? She's sweet, high energy, cuddly, loves to play and uses the litterbox like a pro! Learn more at https://waalrescue.org/adoptable-animal/?aid=7357&cid=18&tid=Cat

12 year old Rain was surrendered when her owner's mental health prohibited her from caring for Rain and her brother, Brittain. She was distraught to say goodbye to them but gave them the greatest gift of love she had, which was to let them go. Rain is an absolute GEM of a dog! Learn about Rain at tinyurl.com/4s8wwnn9

George for Adoption!

I'm George, a 5 year old male, absolutely beautiful if I do say so myself! I adore head scratches and belly rubs. They're my two most favorite things in the world! If not playing with my favorite feather wand you can find me sitting on top of the cat tree looking outside. I get along with some cats, still unsure about dogs. I'm an independent creature but also love to spend time with my humans. I use the litterbox like a champ and am always a polite house guest.
