Cabin CATastrophe
Discovered at a remote cabin, teetering on the brink of life and death, Ringo and Hazel's story is one of unimaginable resilience. With their mother tragically gone and their tiny bodies ravaged by maggots, they clung to life with a determination that defied all odds. Recognizing the urgency of their plight, the cabin owner acted swiftly, rushing them to our rescue, where a team of compassionate hearts stood ready to fight for their survival. Ringo was able to be cared for at home while Hazel required CPR, and a hospital stay in order save her life. During her stay, Hazel stole the heart of one of the ICU Technicians, who has since adopted her and Ringo, giving both of them the life they deserve.
Engine Trouble
Called to action by the urgent cries for help, our rescue team descended upon the junkyard, where a truck had traveled nearly 20 miles with a precious cargo hidden within its metal compartments. Amidst the labyrinth of machinery and debris, the search began—a daunting task made all the more challenging by the unfamiliar terrain. For nearly two hours, we combed through the nooks and crannies of the truck engine, determined to locate and rescue the four young kittens trapped within. All four kittens were healthy and doing great despite their recent long travel adventures. All 4 were soon adopted out to loving families and continued their journey's.
Full House
A call for help from family of an individual with large amounts of cats both inside and outside of the home, many sick, ill and deceased already.
Amidst the rubble and ruins of neglect, we uncovered the true essence of resilience and courage embodied in each and every cat we encountered. With skillful hands and compassionate hearts, we safely live-trapped and removed 52 cats from the property, offering them a second chance at life, love, and freedom. Many of the cats rescued, found new farms to relocate too, with shelter, food and safety. The others, were all loved and cared for and found their forever homes, giving them the best chance at life. All of these cats suffered and endured so much pain, and were given a second chance at life.
Wall Kittens
These 4 sweethearts, were the start of our project at the cat hoarding house, leading to our Full House Rescue. We were called to the home, because kittens had been born inside of a wall in the home, and they were unable to be removed. In the days that followed, the Wall Kittens faced their greatest challenge yet—a battle for survival against illness and adversity. With around-the-clock care and unwavering devotion, we tended to their every need, administering eye treatments and offering comfort and solace in their darkest hours. And as the days turned into weeks, the miraculous happened—two kittens, once expected to lose their eyes, defied the odds and emerged victorious, their sight restored and their spirits shining bright.
