If you have an outdoor pool please add a frog log and well as a critter skimmer (comes in round and square, links below). Both of these items can save countless lives every summer, like little Skimmer below, a frog-sized evening bat who was found clinging to clump of leaves in a swimming pool in Colleyville, TX following a severe thunderstorm during the summer.

Little "Skimmer" floated in the pool until he was discovered the following morning by the homeowner. He ended up with aspiration pneumonia and thankfully recovered after several weeks in care. A frog log may have allowed him to find his way out of the pool and safely fly away. Below is a link to purchase frog logs and critter skimmers. They are inexpensive and save countless lives!

She lost her baby this morning.

He was stillborn, with a huge bruise that almost covered his entire head. How did this happen? Because this sweet, innocent mother became lost inside a truck stop during a rain storm, and was then hit with a broom by an ignorant person.

We drove two hours to rescue her. She was in a lot of pain, likely from a back injury. In arrival she received pain medication and fluids. Thankfully she was also able to eat a little last evening, but this morning it was clear she would lose her baby, who was perfect except for the massive bruise on his head.

She is lost without her baby, and we will be lost without bats. We let the broom wielding person know this, and he was sorry for his actions.

With luck, this little mom will heal and can be released to try again next summer. In the meantime, she will receive the best care we can give her. If her back injury prevents her from flying again, we will take care of her for life, which could be as long as 20 years. Thanks to you, our caring supporters, we are able to do just that.

This girl is a doll!! She was relinquished with her kittens and another momma cat ( #26774 C-J and A, respectively ).

#26774-B looks young and was very friendly with the volunteer. Though she can use some groceries (and a spay), she looks healthier than her kittens.

Please share so we can get them all safe!!

I am missing. Please have my owners contact the shelter.

Edited to include description of picture because everybody jumps to conclusions.

This dog is scared. It has just come into the shelter, which is scary. There’s a lot of new smells. There’s a lot of loud noises. This dog is pictured inside of a stainless steel shoreline kennel. Due to the tremendous amount of dogs that we get in daily this was the only place we had to put it. Yes it has a blanket but you do not see it in the picture because it was just put in there long enough to take a picture and set up for an adult dog. We try our best to get these pictures out immediately, which also means that sometimes the best picture is not taken. Please be kind as we do our best. With an intake of up to 500 animals a month we try hard on limited resources and limited staff. I urge everyone to come in and volunteer if you are concerned about the cleanliness or the safety of our animals.

Why should I get a cat from rescue?

Please donate through [email protected]

What benefits do I get when my cat comes from a rescue? Most rescue cats have been in foster homes. This means we know a bit about their quirks and how they do with other animals. Are you looking for a lap cat? A loud purr? A cat that walks on a harness or plays fetch? Most fosters are more than happy to fill you in on what the cat/kitten’s quirks are.

Rescue cats and kittens are also treated for intestinal parasites, tested for feline viruses, current on vaccines, and on flea and heartworm prevention. They usually have had some time to show if they are going to have an illness so you can bring a healthy animal into your house.

Rescue kittens are also adoptable on a trial basis. If you get your new baby home and it clearly isn't a fit, you can bring them back. We will also go over how to introduce your new kitten/cat and how to work through issues.
