This brave little fighter is looking for the perfect name! Born during a very traumatic delivery to his mom, Princess, this tiny warrior survived the unthinkable. In the chaos of labor, mom accidentally injured some of the kittens — and this sweet boy lost part of his tail and part of his rear foot. But he’s a survivor through and through. He’s healing, growing, playing, and loving life with the biggest heart. Now he’s getting a forever home with the wonderful team at Boulder Creek Veterinary Clinic and we think he deserves a name as strong and special as he is. We’d love your help naming this little legend! Drop your best suggestions below.

Strong? Meaningful? Cute and scrappy? We want to hear them all! What name do you think fits this miracle boy?

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the incredible mama cats here at Kitten Kornher Rescue 🐾💕

From the first tiny cries of their newborn babies to the endless feeding, cleaning, cuddling, and protecting… these mamas are doing an absolutely amazing job raising their little ones. Watching them love and care for their babies so fiercely is such a beautiful reminder of just how incredible animals truly are.
We are so thankful that these sweet girls are safe, cared for, and able to raise their kittens in comfort instead of out on the streets. Right now, all of the mamas and babies are doing well, growing stronger every day, and filling the rescue with tiny purrs, sleepy snuggles, and lots of love.
Happy Mother’s Day to every mama out there — especially the furry ones 💐🐱
Thank you to everyone who helps us care for these precious families and makes this work possible. ❤️

No single person or law ever decided shelters should operate from 9 to 5. Those hours are a leftover from 19th- and early-20th-century animal control practices, not a humane or evidence-based standard.

Where the 9 to 5 model actually came from:

The concept of a shelter as a daytime municipal office goes back to the earliest animal control systems in the late 1800s. During this time, cities set up agencies to manage strays for public health and sanitation. These agencies worked like other government departments, with clerks and officers following standard business hours, rather than hours that responded to community needs.

Early humane societies and SPCAs formed between the 1860s and 1910s to replace harsh municipal killing methods, but they still inherited the same bureaucratic structure and schedules.

Traditional shelters in the 20th century followed a cage-and-kill model. They accepted animals during business hours and euthanized the surplus. Their operations centered on staff convenience instead of public access or saving lives.

None of these systems prioritized adoption, community support, or keeping animals alive. There was no reason to offer evening or weekend hours when working families could reclaim or adopt pets.

Why 9 to 5 persists today

Today, even though modern No Kill programs show that 95 to 99% of animals can be saved with community-focused operations, many shelters still stick to the old schedule because:

- They are run by municipal departments that default to government hours.

- Leadership views shelters as administrative offices, rather than service centers for the public.

- Budget models assume minimal staffing instead of focusing on lifesaving efforts.

- There is an inertia from the belief that “We’ve always done it this way.” This mindset comes from when shelters were not expected to save lives.

There is no scientific, legal, or ethical reason for 9 to 5 hours. It's simply a historical accident.

Why the 9 to 5 model is harmful:

A shelter that closes when working people finish their jobs is a shelter that:

- Reduces adoptions.
- Reduces lost-pet reunifications.
- Increases length of stay.
- Increases stress, illness, and ultimately kill rates.

This is why true No Kill shelters operate with extended hours, community access, and flexible intake support. Lifesaving depends on reaching the public where they are.

Short version:

No one decided shelters should be 9 to 5. It wasn’t a policy choice; it was an accident of history that came from outdated animal control bureaucracy. It's long overdue to replace it with a model focused on lifesaving, not convenience.
