🐾 NO TIME TO WAIT: Callie’s Story 🐾

Callie was out of time.

This sweet calico had been surviving on the streets—pregnant, hungry, and alone.

She arrived at Animal Harbor just in time—because within hours of being brought in, Callie went into labor.

💔 Without shelter, warmth, or medical care, Callie and her kittens might not have made it. That’s the devastating truth for so many momma cats trying to survive kitten season.

But because someone made space, because someone gave, Callie and her babies are safe.

She delivered in peace. In comfort. Surrounded by gentle hands and soft voices—not fear.

This is why we say there’s no time to wait.

Every day, another stray cat is running out of time. Another mom is searching for safety. Another newborn is being born into danger.

Your gift can change everything.

🐾 $25 provides warmth, medical care, and a safe place for 1 cat
🐾 $75 helps 3 cats begin their healing journey
🐾 $125 supports 5 cats in crisis

🚨 We’re on a mission to save 300 cats in 2025—and your gift today makes it possible.

Sewanee Bonner student Ava Hines partnered with Animal Harbor and the University's Office of Civic Engagement to host a delightful community Cat 😺 Cafe ☕🥐!

Students enjoyed cuddles, coffee, and pastries with Animal Harbor cats, providing social and emotional support while fundraising for the shelter's new Feline Enrichment Program.

The event was a huge hit with around 60 participants and raised a fantastic $600 to enrich the lives of shelter cats and volunteers!

Huge thanks to Ava, her team of student volunteers, and everyone involved for making such a positive impact! 🐾❤️

🐾🏡 "I need to be the only dog" — What does that really mean? 🏡🐾

Think of it like this: imagine having a roommate when you're truly someone who flourishes in their own space. You're not unkind or withdrawn – you simply feel more at ease, more tranquil, and more like yourself when you have your own domain. For some dogs, it's precisely the same.
When a rescue dog needs to be the only dog in the home, it doesn't automatically signal behavioral problems. Many of these wonderful pups adore people, relish belly rubs, and make fantastic couch companions – they simply prefer not to share their living space with other dogs. And that's perfectly alright!

By opening your home to a solo pup, you're providing them with the peaceful environment they need to truly shine. In return, you'll receive their complete and undivided affection. ❤️

The next time you encounter one of our available dogs who needs to be an only dog, we encourage you to see a pup who understands exactly the kind of home where they can truly thrive.🏡

Be sure to watch until the end for a funny surprise 🫢

While Lettie still has control of social media communications tonight, she wants to provide a special PSA.

ALL JOKES ASIDE:

I'm a beautiful cattledog mix, and I've spent almost my entire juvenile life at the shelter. I'm one of the last of my siblings still waiting for a forever home, and while the shelter has been a steady source of "family" for me for nine months, I know that nothing can replace the security and warmth of a forever home.

I'm leash trained and know basic commands, so I'm ready for walks and adventures with you! I'm fully vetted, spayed, and microchipped, so you don't have to worry about any of that.

I have a gentle and loving personality, but I do take a bit of time to warm up to new people. I need a confident leader who can provide me with the stability and attention that I deserve. With patience and understanding, I promise I'll become your loyal and loving friend.

Please give me the chance to experience the joy of a forever home. Come visit me at the shelter and see for yourself the incredible bond we can share. I can't wait to meet you!

Meet Casey! This absolutely darling 10-year-old lady is searching for a cozy retirement home where she can shower you with gentle affection. Weighing in at a petite 8 pounds, Casey is a sweet little delight 🧁.

Life has brought Casey to us through no fault of her own; her previous owner had to move to an assisted living facility. But through it all, her sweet and loving nature shines brightly. She's incredibly gentle and has so much love to give. Imagine coming home to a purring companion who will happily snuggle 🥰 by your side.

Shelter life isn't the ideal place for a senior soul like Casey. She deserves the comfort of a warm bed, the gentle touch of a caring human, and a peaceful environment to spend her golden years. Could you be the one to open your heart and home to this precious girl? She promises to fill your life with quiet joy and unwavering devotion.

Our shelter is seeing a heartbreaking increase in surrendered pets. Many are victims of economic hardship and unavoidable life changes.

While some reasons are complex, others are simple, and these pets have become an inconvenience for their owners.

Regardless, these animals are innocent.

The animal welfare crisis is real, and they need your support. Let's come together to give them the love and care they deserve.

Ever wonder what really goes on behind the scenes at the animal shelter?🤔

Spoiler alert: It's Ducky 😺 holding staff meetings...on the keyboard. ⌨️

He's got strong opinions on everything, from the placement of the stapler to the quality of the catnip toys. Did we mention he makes you do all the work while he naps in the outbox 📤?

We've tried explaining that we're a non-profit, not a Fortune 500, but he just stares at us like we're speaking a foreign language. 🤷‍♀️

We're looking for a loving home for Ducky, preferably one with a large executive desk and a team of adoring fans. Applications for 'Ducky's Personal Assistant' are now open!

But the magic doesn't stop there. Our incredible Canine Enrichment Team plays a pivotal role in these success stories.

📣Open your heart and home: Adopt 🏠, don’t shop.

Behind shelter walls, hopeful eyes peer through cage bars, yearning for a loving family. These animals deserve a second chance, but shelters are often overcrowded, stretching resources thin.

Adopting isn’t just bringing home a pet; it’s saving a life and freeing space for others in need.

The emotional toll of shelter life is immense. Many animals have been abandoned, abused, or lost, leaving them confused and scared. The constant noise and unfamiliar surroundings can create a stressful, overwhelming environment.

Long-term shelter stays can lead to severe consequences in some: increased anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, and weakened immune systems.

These animals crave connection and stability, and the longer they remain in the shelter, the harder it can be for them to adjust to a loving home.

When you adopt, you offer a lifeline, a chance to heal and trust again. You witness a remarkable transformation as a timid creature blossoms into a happy companion.

You’ll gain a loving companion while making a profound difference in an animal’s life. Open your heart and home – adopt, don’t shop. #animalharbor #AdoptDontShop #savelives #shelterdog #sheltercat #taylorsversion #taylorswift #adoptme
