Fixing the Boro

Hurricane Helene has left a trail of devastation and hardship across our region. Many in our community have lost their homes, livelihoods, and access to the basic necessities we often take for granted. With roads still impassable and supplies scarce, countless families are facing the heartbreaking reality of not being able to feed their beloved pets.

We are committed to stepping up for our community in this time of crisis. So far, we've distributed over 1,000 pounds of pet food across our county and two others. Tomorrow, a 4,100lb donation is coming in from Hills Pet Nutrition so that we can supply 6 MORE counties with resources for pets. And yet, the need continues to grow as even more neighboring counties reach out for assistance. Those still trapped in their homes are relying on us—and on you—to ensure their pets are fed and cared for. It brings literal tears to our eyes thinking of how worried someone would be knowing their best friend may go without.

Our first order of pet food alone cost $800, and that’s only a fraction of what’s needed to sustain these animals during this disaster. While families focus on restocking their own groceries, we are dedicated to making sure their pets do not go hungry.

We are continually inspired by the love and resilience of our community. Neighbors are helping neighbors, strangers are reaching out with open hearts, and our local heroes—volunteers, first responders, linemen, and community leaders—are working around the clock to restore hope and normalcy. 🙏🏼

For just a few dollars, you can help fill a pet’s bowl and ease the heavy burden these families are carrying. Whether you can give financially, donate a bag of food, or simply share a message of encouragement to our amazing staff and volunteers who are working around the clock, your support means the world to us.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you. ❤️

Fixing the Boro

4 weeks ago

Today, we come together for two incredibly sweet brothers who need our help to ensure their golden years are filled with the love and care they so deeply deserve.

Winslow, 16, and his younger brother Gideon, 8, have spent their entire lives by the side of their devoted owner. They were her world, and she was theirs. But Alzheimer’s, in all its cruelty, began to rob her of the ability to care for them. 💔 The disease stole her memories, her strength, and eventually, her ability to tend to the two lives that brought her so much joy. Despite the family’s best efforts, the medial care these boys required grew beyond what they could manage.

Winslow is suffering from a heart murmur/ heart disease, and some of the worst dental disease we've seen. His poor little body is covered in thick, elephant-like skin from untreated allergies and a severe flea infestation. His ever-faithful sidekick, Gideon, is also in need of extensive dental care to ensure he can thrive in his final years. You can clearly tell how loved and cared for these boys once were, and now it’s our turn to ensure they get the care they need. 💛

Their medical care comes at a significant cost, and we’re reaching out for support to provide Winslow and Gideon with the health and comfort they deserve in their golden years. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing their story—help us give these sweet brothers the same love and care they've been surrounded by entire lives!
