We keep begging for money — and we keep saying YES to animals in need without it. But the truth is, we HAVE to get some funding behind us, or we’ll have to start saying NO.
Starting after Sept 13th, we cannot plan transports without having the needed funding in advance. That means animals in overcrowded shelters will have to wait — and some won’t get the chance they deserve.
It takes $10,000 a month just to keep the lights on, kennels clean, and animals fed — and more than that to operate comfortably and grow.
We’ve launched a Givebutter campaign with 3 clear goals:
$10,000 = survive another month
$15,000 = operate comfortably + finish our new cat room
$20,000 = operate + start expansion plans
We’ll be hosting our 🐾 Fur-iendly Open Paw-se 🐾 Open House on Saturday, Sept 13th — a chance to tour the rescue, meet the animals, shop merch, and see exactly what your donations make possible.
We’d love to walk into that day knowing our September transports are fully funded — and that we can keep saying YES without digging ourselves deeper into a hole.

📅 Join us on Sept 13th: 13400 S. Bell St. (Off Bell and McCormick Rd)
Every dollar matters. Every share matters. And together, we can keep the transports rolling. 🐾❤️
