🎃👻 Halloween Safety Tips for Pets!

Halloween is a fun and busy time filled with cool costumes, sweet treats, and lots of doorbell rings. But for our furry friends, it can also be a little stressful and even dangerous. Here are a few simple ways to help keep your pets safe and calm this spooky season:

🐕 Keep pets away from the front door.
Trick-or-treaters, wild costumes, and constant noise can be overwhelming, especially for foster pets or rescues. Set up a quiet, cozy room away from the front door to lower their stress and prevent any sneaky escapes outside.

🐾 Provide fun enrichment.
Keep dogs and cats distracted with food puzzle toys, peanut butter-stuffed Kongs, or interactive games. Staying busy helps them relax while the neighborhood festivities are going on.

🍬 Watch out for candy!
Chocolate (especially dark or baking chocolate) and sugar-free treats made with xylitol are toxic to pets. Keep candy bowls and trick-or-treat bags high up and out of reach, and remind kids not to leave their candy stashes on the floor or furniture!

🧛‍♀️ Check costumes carefully.
Make sure costumes for both pets and humans do not have small, loose, or dangling pieces that curious pets could chew on and accidentally swallow.

🎃 A little planning can make all the difference in keeping the night fun and safe for everyone, both two- and four-legged alike!

No tricks, just the truth: the scariest thing this season is that so many sweet animals are still waiting for a safe place to land. If you have been looking for your sign to get involved, here it is. Check out our animals needing fosters page now: bit.ly/sota-foster-me

These faces just went live on our site, and their ticket to safety depends on someone opening their home.

We just added new dogs and cats to our Animals Needing Fosters page, and they need confirmed placement before they can make the journey to us.

If space, love, and transportation are what you have to give, we take care of the rest including:
💙 Medical care covered: Vaccines, microchips, spay/neuter, and veterinary visits are fully scheduled and paid for by us.
💙 Supplies provided: Food, litter, crates, bowls, collars, toys... we hand you the entire setup.
💙 First dibs on adoption: If you fall head over heels, you get priority to make them officially part of your family.

You supply the safe space; we handle the rest. Don’t wait! Browse their profiles and claim your foster match right now so we can secure their spot:

Even if you can’t foster right now, sharing this reel could connect one of these animals with the home that saves their life. 💙

Waking up from surgery is a lot less scary when you’re tucked in warm and cozy. 💙

We’re working hard to ramp up the number of in-house surgeries we can provide, which means more lives saved and a much greater need for specialized supplies. Keeping these little ones warm and comfortable immediately after their procedures is essential to a smooth, safe recovery.

You can now shop our wish list dedicated specifically to supporting our surgery and recovery efforts! Sending a comfort item or medical essential straight to our clinic directly impacts these patients while they heal:

Every item helps us care for the next puppy or kitten waiting for their turn. Thank you for helping us wrap them in love when they need it most! 💙

10/28 Update: Brit is still looking for a foster.

Rescued from a hoarding situation, she worked so hard in our Whiskers of Hope program to go from completely terrified to loving pets and being held. She feels ready and hopeful for her next chapter, but she still needs a quiet home to take that final step. You can help Brit today by sharing this post or applying to foster and learning more at bit.ly/sota-brit.

We are happy to answer any questions in the comments to find Brit the right foster!

Meet Brit, a gentle survivor rescued from a hoarding situation who just made one of the bravest transformations we have ever seen. Through our Whiskers of Hope partnership at Oak Park Heights Correctional Facility, Brit spent weeks receiving patient, one-on-one care from a dedicated caregiver in their mental health unit.

She arrived terrified and overwhelmed, but she chose resilience. Over three quiet weeks of decompression, that fear turned into pure trust. Today, Brit feels confident, affectionate, and hopeful. She happily leans into chin scratches, purrs when held, and eagerly counts down the minutes until dinner time.

Now, Brit needs a calm, patient foster home without other pets where she can continue to thrive and settle in at her own gentle pace.

We’re back with your weekly dose of exclusive paw-tent 👀

Happy ! 🐾

This week’s featured beans belong to: ✨ Darcy ✨

Darcy isn’t a fan of loud parties or crowded patios, but she is the ultimate excuse to leave an event early to get home to your four-legged bestie. 🛋️

She’s a shy, gentle soul who blossoms into the sweetest companion once settled. Outside, she uses those long legs for playful zoomies. Inside, she’s calm, respectful, and lives for cozy couch hangs, shared snacks, and TV binges.

Some quick facts about Darcy:

🐕‍🦺 Loves other dogs (matches their play style like a pro!) & great with cats/respectful kids

😴 Potty-trained & genuinely loves her cozy crate naps

🥰 Needs someone ready for an unbreakable, once-in-a-lifetime bond

Darcy is available for adoption! Submit your app here: bit.ly/sota-darcy
