We speak at churches, schools, civic clubs and other events on the benefits and necessity of spay and neuter. We are a no-kill rescue, which means once an animal makes it to us it is safe. Goals:
1. To improve the lives of pet

s and people in West Alabama with an emphasis on our communities by giving unnurtured, unloved animals a second, real chance.
2. Teaching children and adults about the proper care of pets and domestic animals
3. And teaching about the benefits of spay and neuter thru
a. Mobile spay neuter clinic
b. Partnerships with local vet offices and universities

Couldn’t love this anymore…..

Sweet Kendall loving on Frannie. Frannie has overcome so many of her fears and we are so proud of her. Her patience with the puppies is endless and her protective nature towards them is fearless. Never would have thought that three neglected puppies woukd be Frannie’s calling.

Both are available for adoption.

Thought I’d show Banki in his natural environment … this is his mountain of blankets, bed and a heating pad. It’s arranged this way so that he can choose an area with a temperature that suits him. He is now wanting to explore so I literally boxed him in, he isn’t pleased. So much personality.

I have not tried the step up food today since his appetite is a little off.

And here is the sweet boy who is the owner of that nice think healthy tail …

Earl is a blue tongue skink. An old fellow but a good fella and a hungry one at that. He will mainly hibernate this winter and his food intake will go to nearly nothing so I’m trying to build him up going into the winter.

Earl recently shed so he is nice and shiny.

Today he had a base of canned food with boiled chicken, supplements and calcium slowly mixed in. I think he liked it!

Any guesses on what might be on the other end of this fat tail? I was feeding and felt something touch my arm, was very startled and saw this and immediately thought snake.

But it’s not a snake…..

Happy Turkeyday!

So it started with three beautiful clean white turkeys … one dust bath later … three beautiful light gray turkeys. I’ll post a video of their dust bath later as it was something to see. They loved it and they had the dust rolling.

These turkeys are just as tame as the dogs as they have been handled all their lives. They are strictly pets and are treated as such. They help with pest and w**d control and I happily care for them.

They free range only when we are at home and can watch over them as their natural fear of dogs is zero as they have been raised with them.

Happy Friday!

We featured brother Riddle earlier this week so now it’s time to Rhyme! Rhyme is a handsome playful lad. If you want a lap kitty he can fill that request as well but be prepared to play first. Rhyme takes playtime very seriously and is quite the entertainer. Rhyme is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and combo tested negative. Rhyme is a very smart kitty and should adjust well in most homes. He must be kept inside as he has zero knowledge of outdoor life. (Also has excellent litter box manners which is a huge plus!) Rhyme is not only a fun playful buddy but he is also beyond handsome. Love his coat color and beautiful blue eyes.

We have posted several cats this week with no adoption interest. Trying to stay positive because we know when the right home comes along they will be adopted but also sad as we cannot help others until we find homes for several young adults.

But we can’t stop posting and we need you all sharing.

Our cat adoption fee at present is $100. That includes them already being spayed or neutered, vaccinated including rabies and annual vaccination, combo tested, dewormed and on monthly flea/tick preventative. We also feed high quality dry kibble and canned food to ensure they remain healthy and their nutritional needs are met.

Please share! These kitties deserve wonderful homes and we can help them to find forever.

How it started: I am not getting attached, I know how fragile he is. Whatever happens I know I will have tried.

Where we are: I love you Banky. You are a bright spot in my day. I cannot imagine you not being here. Whatever it takes, we will be doing our best. At your disposal little one….

Happy Thursday everyone!

Wanted to introduce a little lady to you all that has been with us for awhile but she’s camera shy.

Everyone say hi to Lillie Beth the Italian greyhound. Lillie Beth has retired not once but twice. First from the show ring where she was a champion, literally. Her second retirement was from having baby iggies. And we are determined that her retirement years are going to be the best of her life. We have to get some medical things out of the way and then it’s smooth sailing.

Lillie Beth has transitioned wonderfully and is quite the champion now at exploring, getting along with the pack, overcoming her fears of larger dogs and she has bonded closely with me. LB is smart, loving and very eager to please. She might be a Granny Iggy but she’s still smoking fast and we are anxious to see her reaction to our hikes in the woods this fall.

It’s me Bankston . Wanted to say hi, share a few pics and let you all know I have really started eating good and this weekend I get to try a slushy puree food for the first time. I am excited to get to use my teeth.

I’m getting to be big ! And ignore how mom looks she’s been at work today and needed snuggles from me. I had to oblige and I must admit i enjoyed it. I must be turning into a softy.

Love Banki

Happy Wednesday !

I’m sure you all know how we always say “we will love them like our family until their forever home comes along”…. Well here it is in action.

From terrified and very hard to handle on intake to this.. did it take months? yes Did we get snapped at a couple of times when we moved too fast ? Yes Are they perfect? No and neither are we and the big question is was it worth it? Resounding yes.

We are a rescue. We are committed to helping those most in need and that includes being patient and investing time in the scared ones. Helping them to adjust with us won’t make the transition to a new home seamless but it makes it possible. And we get to know them so well that we can share tips to help as well.

And you know what else? This sweetie has an application pending for adoption. That’s the goal.

Riddle me this !

Riddle is a stunning young adult neutered male. He is absolutely a sweet boy as well. Riddle is great with other cats and isn’t afraid of the dogs. In fact he is friends with the pups because he’s a great boy like that.

Riddle is vaccinated, dewormed and on monthly flea/tick preventative. He also has excellent litter box manners and adores his scratching post which is always a plus. Also he loves being petted and was a very good sport during picture taking when he really wanted to go play with his brother, Rhyme, who was playing with a ball.

Riddle is an inside kitty exclusively as that is safer and he has never lived outside so he has no inclinations to constantly fret to go out and certainly no street cred so he would get injured. Plus you are going to want him inside with you where he belongs !

Riddle needs a forever home of his own. He should do well in most loving home environments.

He has so many precious facial expressions it would be impossible to pick a favorite. His big clear eyes are hard to look away from. We love this sweet boy and you will as well.
