This is dedicated to all volunteers spending their holiday weekend saving cats. 💗
While our friends are on road trips, at the beach, at festivals, and otherwise out enjoying themselves, we choose to pack the car with traps and supplies and head out to rescue. We're determined to capture those kittens and get them on their way to their happily ever after. We'll spend hours trapping adult ferals to get them to the TNR clinic, as well as friendly strays to get them to rescue. Rain or shine, it doesn't matter. We're volunteers, so time off is the only time we have to get this important work done.
We'll think nothing of climbing a fence or crawling under a house to get what we're after. We'll come home smelling like tuna, covered in dirt, and have to check to make sure we didn't pick up any ticks along the way. Sometimes it's not pretty, but it's always worth it.
At the end of the day, our social media newsfeed will be filled with glam shots of our friends on their adventures. Our own posts will be of the cats and kittens we've captured, asking for donations and looking for fosters. We are driven by compassion and determined not to let any animal suffer if we can help it.
Don't think for a moment that we'd rather be anywhere else; spending our free time this way is a decision that we make freely because we care so very much. There will be another time for us to rest and relax... but today is not that day. 💪🐱❤️
