🎉Huge thanks to the Patrick Family for all their years of continued support!

This family has a tradition of making donations to charity rather than buying each other gifts. So for the last few years, for every birthday, anniversary, and holiday, John and Kath Patrick and their 2 grown sons and daughters-in-law make a donation to us in that person's name when the occasion rolls around.

We have known this family for years and I would say they are all around awesome people. We also were able to help them out a few years back by trapping their dozen or so barn cats and we got them spayed/neutered and vaccinated. The kitties have it good there with daily food and water, heat lamps, and a loft full of hay and straw to bed down in.

Thanks to this family for their compassion for all living creatures and the selfless traditions they embrace to help others. 🤗

Wanted to give a shout out to Erin at Heartland Embroidery in Torrington for making us these shirts last month. I needed just a couple shirts last minute for myself and 2 of my helpers at the supply drive and Erin got them done for us very quickly and for a reasonable price. That was our first time doing business with them and it was a pleasure. 😊
(Pardon the wrinkles).

4 kitties headed home to their colony Saturday night.

In the warm months we keep the TNR kitties for a minimum of 24 hours after surgery to make sure they are recovered from anesthesia and to give the kitties a quiet, warm place to recover. In the cold months, we surely keep them longer and never release them in bad weather.

Sadly, these babes live in a town where the ordinance allows anyone to kill them by any means they see fit. This is why we rarely, if ever, do TNR in Wheatland anymore. We have limited resources and spending money for vet care on cats who have a high probability of being killed after release unfortunately is a waste of our resources. Yes, I agree that's very sad but we can spend that same money on animals in Ft. Laramie, Hartville, or Guernsey and know the town ordinance will protect them after release. We released these babes with hope that they will never meet that fate.

Wake up Wheatland! Wyoming is a tourism state and animal cruelty doesn't look good on anyone. In my 27 years of doing this work, I have never seen a town more backwards and behind the times than Wheatland is when it comes to animals and that's saying a lot.

Godspeed to these babes and may they forever be kept safe.

It is a dark and foggy night. I am headed home with the 17 critters that accompanied me to the clinic today. As most people know, it is a 2 hour drive one way for me, but well worth it. This time of year when the days are short and the weather is starting to close in, our clinic days become more scarce but we will keep chipping away to get these animals the care they need.

-Bert and Ernie, our newest doggie residents were neutered, rabies vaccinated, and received a full exam.

-Edgar, the kitty with the horrific back injury that showed up at our Critters Inc property a few weeks ago was neutered, vaccinated, and had his wound once again clipped and cleaned. It is healing beautifully and is nearly closed.

- Ziggy, the terrified stray orange kitty from Guernsey, featured on a previous post and who trembled with fear when we trapped him and had a bad eye injury, today saw Dr. Lindsey for his eye re-check and to have a retained baby tooth extracted.

-14 stray kitties from Wheatland from numerous different areas were spayed/neutered, vaccinated for rabies and distemper, and ear-tipped.

*One kitten had a claw growing out from it's stomach; a genetic anomaly and mutation where a cell programmed to turn into claw ended up on the belly instead. The claw was removed and will not affect the health of the kitten.

A long but successful day and as always, thanks to Dr. Lindsey and her team. I don't know what we'd do without them.

How can you deny THAT face? 🥰

Babe, one of our senior sanctuary girls wanted me to remind you that, not only is she the goodest girl, but also our dog food pile is down to the last bag. ☹️

We buy 100% of our dog food from our amazing Friends at Cheyenne Dog Food Co. and although they give us a phenomenal discount, we pay $41.99 a bag for our dog food. With 37 doggie mouths to feed, we go through 2 bags a day so the cost really adds up. 🫣

We will be headed there today to restock our supply for the coming weeks and to get our daily dose of exercise loading and unloading. 💪🏻

Critter Conclusions 😍

The absolute best part of rescue is seeing the final product. It makes all stress, lack of sleep, worry, and doubt worth it when you hand an animal over to a new safe place.

As rescuers we live in the gray of an animal's life. The black is before and the white is after. Their life before whether they were cold, mistreated, injured, dirty, or neglected...is the black unknown and they will never be able to share with us about what they went through. They come to us in the gray. The healing, the learning, the path of growth and upward movement. Will they heal? Will they ever get adopted? Will they ever learn to trust? The gray is full of worry and I live in it full-time.

Then comes the white. The white is love. The white is commitment. The white is forever. As a rescuer, passing an animal into the white, is like having the weight of the world lifted off of you. The weeks, months, or years of investment in that animal...and the minute you hand them over to someone that you know is going to take over the worrying and care for you, is an indescribable relief. It is like reaching the finish line in a long and exhausting journey.

Marjory and Smokey have made their way there.

Marjory, named after Marjory the trash heap from Fraggle Rock because she was found in a dumpster, came to us at about 3 months old all the way back on August 12th, 2024. She was rundown and scared but came around quickly and has been one of my favorite kitties here at Critters Inc since.

Smokey, named by his finder, was found soaking wet, cold, and hungry at the park by the pool in Guernsey just this past June at about 7 weeks of age. He was a very little guy and battled upper respiratory repeatedly, but he hung in there.

On September 21st, I visited the family that had applied to adopt this pair so that I could do their home check. Although their new doggie roommate initially thought maybe they were a snack, we knew he just needed time to adjust. These 2 cuties entered a foster-to-adopt arrangement and after these last 6 weeks went well, they were officially adopted on Friday.

With a 10 year old rescued dog that has moved from state to state with them, this family understands what it means to commit to an animal for life and all that that entails. They are not just a pet, they are family.
Lucky for Marjory and Smokey, now they are family too.

Congratulations to these 2 cuties on finding their forever with a mom, dad, 3 kiddos, and a new doggie friend. 🤗

A happy ending...🥰

Back in the last week of September, two kitties accidentally slipped out the door of their home and took off. Their owner was heartbroken and notified me right away that they were missing. I knew these two since several kitties from this household had been participants in our spay/neuter program over the years. Their owner is the type that we all dream of for a pet to have and my heart broke right along with hers when I heard they were lost. They are her world and she is theirs.

Over the next couple weeks I posted several times on community pages hoping someone had seen them, but all tips we received led to a dead end. I went over and set 3 traps and left them set full-time in the hopes the kitties would come home. While we did catch a few stray toms and were able to take them in for neuter and vaccines before releasing them, there was still no sign of the missing two.

Then one day out of the blue, Koshka, the younger kitty on the left, appeared at her owner's window and we both breathed a small sigh of relief that she was home safe. But then the question became, where was Ming and why were they not together? Ming, the kitty on the right, is 13 years old and very shy. Days had turned into weeks and weeks had turned into more than a month.
I truly thought she was lost forever.

Then on November 3rd, an early Christmas miracle arrived...

I was out of state caring for family and had gone to bed early that night. When I woke up the next morning I had a zillion missed calls and texts from my partner who was back home. He had been contacted by a coworker that night before who stated they had a calico cat in their garage that had been hanging around for a few days and that the kitty was in very bad shape and would not live much longer without intervention. Then he sent me a photo.

I instantly knew it was Ming and she looked bad...really bad.

I panicked, being so far away and that I had missed the call the night before. What if she had left the garage? What if she had died during the night? What if they didn't answer their phone? I felt absolutely helpless being so far away. I immediately called the finder and Ming's owner. You'd never believe it but the finder lived just a few houses down. After a fair amount of back and forth and me holding my breath while the finder looked for her in his garage to see if she was still alive...finally her frail, emaciated, dehydrated little body was placed safely in a box and carried just a few hundred yards to her home.
Yes, she was alive. 🙌🏻

She was in bad shape. The nights had been getting cold and out on the streets is no place for a senior kitty who has lived her life indoors. Her owner got a vet appointment made right away and I was able to instruct her over the phone about what medical care to give at home while she waited.

The third picture below is Ming today, sleeping peacefully under the observant eye of her loving owner. Although she is noticeably knocked down in terms of health after this ordeal, the fact that she can now spend her final days back home instead of alone and cold out on the street, truly is a miracle. 😇

Yesterday November 11th was another clinic day! 😸

Yes, another small one but we have a big one coming up next week.

6 kitties accompanied me to see Dr. Lindsey.

A momma and her 4 four month old kittens from Torrington were all spayed/neutered and vaccinated. Momma was ear-tipped since she will be roaming outdoors part-time. One of the kittens was born with only a partial hind limb. This was x-rayed and examined. At this time no further intervention is needed but down the road this girl may need surgery to amputate the remaining portion of the leg if the bone starts to wear on the skin. 2 kittens and momma kitty returned home today and the other 2 very lucky kittens (2 females including the disabled kitten) were dropped off to our friends at Waggin' Tails shelter so that they can find their indoor forever homes. Huge thanks to them for stepping up to do this.

The 6th kitty was Blaze, a Critters Inc resident who has an adoption pending. Blaze has been battling a nasty eye ulcer for the past month and went in for his final recheck and eye-staining to ensure he was medically cleared to join his 2 brothers in their adoptive home. He received one final prescription for eye drops and will be on his way home very soon.

We also picked up flea meds for our 2 new doggie friends featured in our last video as well as some more SubQ fluids which we always make sure to have on hand.

Total cost for the day: $372.50 plus fuel 💸

Our Story...

At the age of just 15, I began volunteering at a city animal shelter in my hometown in NY. Little did I know this would shape the course of my life and the passion I have for these shelter animals. I have spent the last 21 years working in this field and after moving to Wyoming, I saw a great need for animal care and assistance in the community. This is why I created Critters Inc.

I have been in operation unofficially for the last four years, all paid for from my own pocket. With costs in excess of $55,000 to date, I have performed trap-neuter-return on over 120 cats, taken in over 250 strays, and I have assisted more than 80 families with some 150+ pets to get those pets spayed/neutered and vaccinated for a reduced cost. Now with a licensed nonprofit corporation, I hope to grow and continue the work I have been doing in our local communities. Supported solely by donations, I sincerely hope you will consider giving so that I might continue to help the companion animals and their owners right here in Wyoming, that are so very much in need.
