As flowers bloom and the days grow warmer, spring reminds us that this is a season of fresh beginnings.
But for the thousands of animals in our care, it also brings some of the toughest challenges we face all year.
Right now, our dogs and cats are shedding more than just their winter coats — they’re waiting for their forever homes. And they need you more than ever.
While spring brings joy to many, for those of us in animal welfare, it means an overwhelming increase in responsibilities.
Puppies and kittens are arriving daily —due to the growing population of unspayed and unneutered street animals.
These vulnerable newborns face a high risk of injury, illness, and neglect in their short time on this earth.
Tick season is in full swing, bringing life-threatening diseases like ehrlichiosis.
Our team is working around the clock to keep our shelter animals protected.
At the same time, vaccination season is underway.
With more than 1,400 animals in our care, ensuring they’re all protected is a massive task — especially as we work to prevent illness from spreading through incoming rescues.
Spring grooming is also urgently needed.
Many of our dogs’ coats are in poor condition after a long, harsh winter.
For them, a warm bath, good brushing, and proper care aren’t just about looking better — they’re about health, comfort, and dignity.
Meanwhile, rising global tariffs are threatening our ability to afford the quality food our animals rely on.
We’re working urgently to stock up before prices become unsustainable.
We’re preparing for a large shipment of food and supplies — but we need your help to be able to afford it.
Our animals can’t afford a drop in nutrition, not while so many are still recovering from trauma, neglect, or illness.
This season is one of hope, healing, and transformation — not just in nature, but in the lives of the animals we care for every single day.
With over 1,400 lives depending on us, your support means everything.
Whether it’s a donation for a full vaccination, a grooming session, a bag of food, or even just a soft, warm new bed, every contribution brings us closer to giving these animals the lives they truly deserve.
Together, we can help our shelter bloom — one wagging tail, one soft purr, one life at a time.
Give a fresh start. Donate today.
