This is our Executive Director each & everyday. If Freddie Sr & Jr are taking a nap. Although she never takes a break, this is how April Gibson makes it through each day: caring for animals that others either couldn't or wouldn't do the same for. It can be overwhelming, but it’s not their fault. Spay & neuter your pets, we promise WE will be glad you did. Loving a feline is one of the best ways to bring down anxiety & stress. Instead of grabbing those “smokes”, grab a couple little furry, purring & at times over the top energy felines instead. 🐾♥️
