HE HAS BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR HELP ALL DAY 💔
💔 ASTRO NEEDS URGENT HELP 💔
🚨 BEING EUTHANIZED ON 15/01 🚨
HOLDS ON TO HIS BLANKIE AND CRIES…
His owners have been charged with abandonment now Astro has no one left.
RESCUE ONLY.

He was found limping and starving, trying to survive on scraps.
Every time someone tried to pet him, he’d cower in fear, still hoping for kindness.
A good Samaritan saw him eating trash in the rain her heart shattered.

Now, Astro has shut down completely.
He won’t eat. He won’t leave his kennel.
All he wants is his little blankie the only thing that makes him feel safe.

When staff walk by, he gently lifts his paw, as if to say:
“Please… don’t give up on me.” 💔

If no one steps forward, Astro will be the first to take the walk to the back never to feel love or see another day of sunlight again.

Please… don’t let him die alone.
Every donation matters. Every share saves time.

🙏 Please kindly donate link in bio. ❤️

Please honor pledges via
!! BEING EUTHANIZED 1/11‼️ SHUT DOWN, HEARTBROKEN. 💔 Sweet geriatric lady with URI is now refusing her food and medications. She would benefit from a quieter environment to heal. Would you open your home to her to save her life?
Daisy is a 10-year-old terrier mix in desperate need of help. She is suffering from an upper respiratory infection, isolated in a room, and has stopped eating. Her condition is rapidly deteriorating. It’s heartbreaking to see yet another senior dog spending her final days in the cold, lonely confines of a shelter kennel. Daisy deserves better a chance to feel love and comfort in a warm, caring environment. Can you help her?
Disclaimer - We are volunteers and while we don’t handle adoptions directly, please feel free to send us a DM if you or someone you know is interested in adopting, fostering, volunteering or donating & We are willing to assist in the process.

BEING EUTHANIZED ON 20/01 ‼️
HOLDS ON TO HIS BLANKIE AND CRIES
His owners have been charged with abandonment.
Now, Astro waits behind cold shelter bars alone, scared, and heartbroken.

He was found limping and starving, searching through trash in the rain just to survive.
Each time someone tried to feed him, he’d cower down, still hoping for kindness.

Now, he doesn’t move.
He just clings to his little blankie the only thing that makes him feel safe.
When staff walk by, he slowly lifts his paw, begging for a touch, for love, for a chance to live.

💔 Astro has given up. He refuses to eat. He knows what’s coming.
He will be the first to take the walk to the back… never to feel love or see sunlight again.

Please don’t let his story end like this.
Help us give him a chance at life.
Even a few dollars can save him. 🙏

Please kindly donate link in bio. 🐾❤️

🚨 Emergency: $500 needed for medical care 🚨
1/20 Euth List Bindee, Female, HW-, Demodex

Little Bindee is only nine months old.
When rescuers first met her, they expected fear and aggression but instead, they found the sweetest soul. 💔
She wagged her tail even while trembling in the corner, too scared to move but still trying to show love.
When lifted into gentle arms, she didn’t fight… she just wagged again, hoping someone finally cared.

Now she’s battling skin wounds, swelling under her chin, and painful Demodex that needs urgent treatment.
She’s on the euthanasia list, but there’s still time if we act fast.
$500 can save her life and give her the chance she’s quietly begging for.

Please don’t scroll past.
Her story doesn’t have to end here.
Donate via the link in bio and help Bindee live the life she deserves.

Battered & Bruised Puppy Resorts To Eating Plastic To Stay Alive After Being Horrifically Attacked...⁠

We don’t know how long Bully puppy Queso was struggling on the streets, but when one of our team members found him, it was clear he was in dire need of help. Queso was struggling to walk, his rear right leg swollen and too painful to bear weight. His abdomen was bloated, bruised, and tender, and a fluid-filled sack was visible on his side. The bruising extended to his legs and chest, and we have no doubt that this poor boy was the victim of brutal violence.⁠

As we examined him further, small pieces of plastic were found in his feces—a sign of the lengths he went to just to survive. Starving and desperate, Queso had likely resorted to eating whatever he could find just to stay alive, even if it wasn’t food. Thankfully, X-rays showed no broken bones, but blood work indicated alarmingly elevated kidney values. His wounds suggest he may have been bitten by a snake or some other venomous creature. We’ve started him on antibiotics and pain management medication and are monitoring him closely.⁠

Despite everything, Queso still has the spirit of a puppy. He is confused and a little scared, but so loving and resilient. He’s a fighter, and we’re determined to give him the chance to grow up healthy, happy, and safe, but we can’t do it alone. Queso’s vet bills are already mounting rapidly, and he is still far from being out of the woods.⁠

Please consider contributing to Queso’s medical fund or donating any items from his wish list of essential supplies. Your support is invaluable during this critical time. We will keep you updated on his progress when we can. Thank you for your compassion and generosity.⁠
