Starlight Outreach and Rescue

Starlight Outreach and Rescue Starlight Outreach and Rescue is a 501c3 non-profit animal rescue, founded & led by a female veteran. Starlight Outreach and Rescue (S.O.A.R.)

is a 501(c)3 non-profit animal rescue that started with a small group of volunteers who wanted to support the efforts of Houston-area shelters to provide a better quality of life for stray and abandoned animals, medical attention beyond the scope/capabilities of the facilities, and fostering and rescue services for animals with special needs. The organization is named in honor of Emma Starlight Hy

de who was just 14 years old when she passed away unexpectedly in October 2017. Emma and her mom Shelley, with the support of their family, volunteered at shelter events, such as the annual Shelter Dog Birthday Party, and fostered baby kittens to ensure they received proper socialization and feeding during the weaning period. Emma put in a lot of time and effort to get her kittens used to interaction with and handling by people, which helped ensured all her fosters were highly adoptable by the time they returned to the shelter and were put up for adoption.

​Emma’s bright and caring spirit continues on in this organization, lighting the way for stray and abandoned pets to find their way to their forever homes.

Beautiful Cotton was adopted from us in 2022 and we just got a call that she's been owner-surrendered to the HSPCA.

While we figure out the logistics of getting her into a foster placement, we thought we'd put her information out in case any of our supporters know someone who is looking for a gorgeous flame-point Siamese cat to adopt. If we don't find a foster for her, the HSPCA will be adopting her out, so if you're interested, let us know and we can let you know her status/location.

She is currently 5 years old and likely has darker markings than in this photo of her from when she was around a year old

If you missed this week’s podcast episode “Pet Food Labels From Front to Back,” now’s a good time to catch up.

We broke down what’s actually on the front of the bag, what matters on the ingredient list, and how to tell the difference between useful information and marketing that just sounds impressive.

And tomorrow, we’re shifting gears.

“The Pet Care Stuff You’ve Been Meaning to Do: A Fall Reset” is about all those pet-care tasks you may have been putting off all summer, before you suddenly need that appointment, boarding reservation, refill, or paperwork handled right now.

With summer winding down, kids heading back to school, and routines settling back into place, it’s a good time to get your pet care back in line too.

🎧 Catch up on the pet food episode today, then join us tomorrow for your fall pet-parent reset. Listen on your favorite podcast app or at the link below!⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇

Our latest podcast episode takes a deep dive into your pet's food bag (or can) to help you understand what the labels are really saying about what your pet is eating. This is just a snippet about feeding guidelines, but we get into the claims on the front and what ingredients you should be looking for (and avoiding) on the back.
