#animal shelter
11.20.19 - PSA to get out of the house and volunteer at your local shelters.
We failed to take a photo before taking it in, but we brought a bundle to the shelter today! Food, treats, the leftover toys from our store & some of the kitty accessories for the volunteers to enjoy. Plus bleach! Cleaning supplies are well appreciated at shelters as they’re not often thought of.
It’s been more than 2 years since Lazarou was adopted and nearly 2 since Adamwe was. We are so grateful! Why not help out your own local shelter? Or ours
One day at work, a trash collector had a heart-warming encounter when he opened a trash bag.
A usual day for this employee at Philadelphia, PA is hauling trash bags deposited in the streets into the garbage truck. The routine was the same for this particular day. Nothing uneventful happened, until he noticed that there were movements in one of the bags. After he heard sound coming from it, he realized it was coming from a cat that was still inside the bag.
The collector released the kitten as soon as he could. She was then taken to the Providence Animal Shelter, and was aptly named after the Sesame Street character Grundgetta.
The animal shelter that took her confirmed that Grundgetta had been adopted by a loving new family.
It is truly inhumane to throw away such an innocent kitten away. Stories like this, however, provide hope for humans who are still compassionate and kind to animals.

Blind Persian Cat Gets A Second Chance In Life After Being Rescued From A Dirty Pet Shop Where She Lost Her Sight
An Orphaned Baby Wombat Was Found In Her Dead Mother’s Pouch Weighing Just 120 Grams, Got Rescued.
The Bad and Sad:
His back looks a little odd there right? Kinda hunched up.
This sweet little stray kitten had severe lordosis with scoliosis, an enlarged heart, murmur, and he was anemic.
This is not compatible with long term life. His heart was being crushed between his spine and his sternum.
We gave him a yummy meal, snuggles, and humanely euthanized.
The interesting:
Approximately 18 month old feral tom with a significant pectus excavatum. Heart is shoved way over to the left but he is in amazing condition otherwise. Very lucky he survived this.
The good:
