Vanilla Bean came to us off the streets like most our cats, only with Bean, it was far more traumatizing. We don't believe Bean hears much. He may feel vibrations, but basically, he is watching and looking for predators from his street days. He has an open door on his kennel, but rarely wants to get down simply because our rescue has soooooo many furbabies right now. All are very loved and nurtured, but Vanilla Bean needs a family that understands what he needs. We are looking for someone that is either experienced with deaf animals or experienced with special needs in general. It took us close to a month to earn this guy's trust enough to get our hands on him. At first he shook with fear, growled a little, and coward down. BUT and this is a big one, as soon as he knew he was safe, he melted in our arms and hugged us. He wants to be someone's lap baby so bad and deserves to be. Of course Bean is ONLY looking for calm, inside only homes. He doesn't seem to mind who is loving on him and responds well to our children volunteers that understand how to handle cats properly.

We are a super small, no kill rescue that is operating way above our capacity. Our numbers have increased exponentially since Covid. Unlike most shelters, we remained open and hit record intake numbers after the epidemic hit. We have taken in dozens of very sick felines that had no other option, and have even helped over 60 canines in 2021. 2022 was not any better.  We are trying to compute our end of the year numbers, but intake, vetting expenses, cost of food and litter for our 120 plus cats all just continues to get worse with the cost of living increasing like it has. Our rescue has also provided record number spay/neuters 2023 at well over 1200 surgeries on cats and dogs. Our accounts are drained, but we feel these surgeries are the only way we are going to be able to stay a float. We will never keep up with the rate that cats can breed in our area. 

We operate solely on donations, and we are always looking for wonderful families to join our efforts. We have dozens of felines not posted and dozens more on our waiting list. No matter what type of setting you have, if you are looking to save a feline, we can find one for you to help.
