Rescue Mission Underway to Help Shelters
Affected by Texas Floods
Right now, our Rescue Team is mobilizing to save approximately 30 dogs from Central Texas as part of our emergency response to the region’s devastating flooding. These dogs and puppies were already awaiting adoption, and their transport will create urgently needed space for animals displaced by the disaster. Some were pulled from area shelters by a dedicated rescuer who lost everything in the storm, while others were surrendered from communities on the outskirts of the flood zone, rescued from heartbreaking conditions.

With our Mobile Rescue Team heading to Texas with much-needed supplies for shelters impacted by the devastating floods in the region, we need your help to make sure they have everything they need to bring these animals to safety. Animals like this sweet mom and her litter of Aussie puppies who were found just on the outskirts of the flood zone. Will you help them now when they need you the most?

Remy’s rescue was the result of compassion, persistence and dedicated teamwork. From the FDNY paramedics who first found her, to the shelter partners who followed protocol, and finally to our own staff who made sure she didn’t fall through the cracks, this was a life saved because people worked together and refused to give up.
If your female cat is in heat, you’re likely dealing with loud vocalizations, restlessness, and unwanted attention from male cats. In the middle of this, many pet parents start to ask: Can a cat be spayed when in heat? The short answer is yes — but there are some important considerations to keep in mind before proceeding.
