We told y'all we weren't done yet, right?😼
Today was a special transport to the Lynchburg Humane Society for five lucky kitties. We had previously TNR'd three of these guys (and two more were done earlier this week). They lived in a trailer park in Cana, but, sadly, their owners had either moved away or died. Local feeders were caring for them until last month the owners of the property announced they were selling and everyone needed to clear out. 😿
We are working hard to rehome all of the friendly cats from this location and find alternate feeders for those who would prefer to remain outdoors, but it's been a process. We are so thankful to our transport partners, like Lynchburg Humane Society for helping us with this process!❤❤❤
Thanks also to long time volunteers, but first-time transporters Erica and John Crookshanks for making the drive, and the always amazing foster - and TCHS president - Becky Bloomfield for taking them in (before today's transport she was caring for 14 cats from this colony alone!!).
We're still not done - see ya soon!😻
I think Larry and I have fostered about 24 kitties from this one colony (over several months). They are the sweetest, most loving cats. They just need a chance.
So happy to see these CW cats on their way to better lives 😻😸😺. I can bring more Becky 🤣. Just kidding - they have been a great group of cats & I'm so grateful you have been able to foster so many 🥰 over the past several months.
God richly bless you
Bless you all
I’m so happy they are getting a better life. Thank you!!
Look at those beautiful, lucky kitties! Thank you everyone! 😻😘
Amazing! This community is blessed to have such dedicated volunteers to help these babies. Thank you all!
Holy cow! What a TNR to end the year on!!!😻🎄❄️
Our amazing partners Homeward Trails Animal Rescue came to town for their annual Christmas TNR plus event and THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!❤😍❤ With their help we were able to trap, spay/neuter, and vaccinate 65 community cats! Fifty of these cats went to our wonderful spay/neuter partners Angels of Assisi in Roanoke, while the rest went to Healing Springs Animal Hospital (thank you Dr. Jenkins!) and Carroll Veterinary Clinic (thank you Dr. Gambill for coming in on your day off!). Homeward Trails trapping partners Kelsey Moncrief and Lisa Bell were chef’s kiss😘😆!
We also had a special adventure this weekend, working on a joint project with the always inspiring Sue Bell to help some local residents who love their animals very much, but just needed some help. Sue and her supporters (with a big assist from champion to Twin County animals Daphna Nachminovitch with PETA) raised funds to pay for some much-needed shelters for the dogs while volunteers helped assemble them. TCHS and HT also worked together to get the dogs and cats spayed and neutered. Big thanks to Craig and Heather Stanley and Cassandra and Jestin Holbrook for helping to haul dog houses and kennels to the property for this big project! You guys rock!💪😁
Special thanks to New River Trail Cabins for letting the Homeward Trails crew stay in their fabulous cabins at no cost (so they can spend that money on the animals instead!)😁
There are so many more people to thank – TCHS volunteers (trappers, fosters, cleaners, transporters, etc., etc.), our community cat caretakers, rescue partners, and supporters of all animal rescues everywhere because we are all working hard and doing our best to help those who depend on us.
As we say goodbye to our friends from Homeward Trails today, to the cats who will be released back to their homes today, and to the other cats and dogs that will begin the journey to their new homes today, our hearts are full❤ This is more than we could have ever asked for this Christmas. Merry Christmas everyone (and don't worry, we'll see you again before the New Year - we're not done yet😉)!
Amazing teamwork!
Cats and dogs love us unconditionally whether they have food or shelter. So do the hard working volunteers at Twin County Humane, Homeward Trails, Angels of Assisi and PETA. They all give sacrificially and love with full hearts to save lives and improve the qualify of life for so many. Thank you!
