Joyful Rescues 501(c)(3) Non-Profit Pet Rescue

www.joyfulrescues.org VISITS AVAILABLE BY APPT ONLY WITH APPROVED APPLICATION. Joyful Rescues Board of Directors is not paid.

Since our humble beginnings in December 2002, Joyful Rescues has grown into a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporate team of volunteer animal lovers reaching out to help homeless dogs, puppies, cats and kittens in need of love, affection and forever homes. We are a no-kill shelter – meaning we never euthanize for space. The founder and director, Joye Turock, along with her husband Jeff turned their lives

and home upside down in forming Joyful Rescues. When you hear the phrase 'gone to the dogs', well that is exactly where the Turock world has gone. Most pets are kept at the primary location (the Turock home & small housing facilities on their property) with the remainder of pets being in loving foster homes. Joyful Rescues is not a shelter where potential adopters can walk through to view pets in cages. For the most part, our pets are not caged, once the initial quarantine time has ended, unless medical or behavioral issues mandate it. Dogs enjoy lounging in the house, roaming the fenced 8 acre doggy paradise and swimming in the large pond. Our cats have their own 'house' where they are free to play, gaze out the windows and lounge wherever they choose. Our pets get the best care & treatment we can give here at Joyful Rescues- not to mention tons of love & attention. This truly is a labor of love for all involved. Joyful Rescues has been more successful than we could have hoped. We've had many successful adoptions with people traveling from all over NY, PA, the East Coast and even as far away as Las Vegas to find the new love (and sometimes loves) of their lives. Past adopters are invited back for our Rescue Reunion each August (see PetFest under Events). As space allows, we take in relinquished, uncared for, in danger, puppy mill and/or unwanted pets as well as unexpected litters. We do not agree with the discarding of pets for most any reason but we do want these pets to have the best life possible. They cannot do this in a home where they are unwanted. They will be tied outside as lawn ornaments, dumped off somewhere or worse. The pets we take in are for the most part healthy and non-aggressive. We will not take in or adopt out a pet that is aggressive and a potential danger. Upon arrival all animals visit accredited vets for a basic check-up.

Sweet Senior Izzy & her Foster Mom just LOVE one another. . . .but Foster Mom KNOWS that Izzy will be happier in a home with fewer pets!

6-Month-Old Clover Honey (A rather rare all ginger FEMALE!) is just a tad disappointed that her forever family did not find her over the holiday season! But, she continues to keep herself busy by entertaining herself with all the cat toys in the house and everything that she can pretend is a cat toy! She is also very successful in encouraging the resident cats to play with her! Although she would be fine as an only cat, she would also love another Kitty to play with her! When she has herself all tired out, every night she curls up right next to, or right on top of foster mom! She's waiting for your application to come in at Joyful Rescues! SHARING Clover Honey's Post will go a long way in helping her forever family to find her, so PLEASE, PLEASE SHARE! It only takes a few seconds! 😻🐾❤️
