TBT: Titan and Fire

TBAR-TBT-Cats-Rescue-Titan-FireOnce upon a time these babies were born to a feral momma & abandoned at 2 weeks old. They were crying & cold in tall grass. Found by a sweet young woman. That young woman reached out and found me. She struggled to keep their little flames of life burning. Their sister was lost so she fought to keep the boys alive. Now here they are 2 years old & spoiled boys! Fire was adopted by a sweet little family & Titan was a foster failure!

Event Recap: Community Workshop with Alley Cat Allies

TBAR-Alley-Cat-Allies-WorkshopTrue Blue Animal Rescue hosted a free seminar to educate the community about how to help cats while controlling the population on Sat June 27th.The group picture was taken at the end of the event to show unification of rescuers moving forward to humanely care for animals in our communities.

Representatives Liz Holtz and Hannah Shaw from Alley Cat Allies out of Maryland flew in to teach us what they know and help us begin a successful Trap, Neuter and Return program in our community. Alley Cat Allies brought facts from studies showing that programs such as these are the only way to control the cat population. Cats have been living in our communities for hundreds of years just as raccoons, squirrels, possums and skunks do. They do not damage, harm or attack humans and their property. As natural hunters Cats help control rodent and snake populations in rural communities. The population can get out of control but killing them or removing them does not solve the problem. When one leaves, another will come and take it’s place. They can be controlled through Trap, Neuter and Return programs. They will be vaccinated when they are fixed and ear tipped so you’ll know which cats are done. Once they are fixed and returned they are no longer breeding, fighting, multiplying and they are disease free and vaccinated. They will stay in their own colony and live peacefully among the other animals and humans. We ended the seminar with Amy reading Tiger’s story so we wouldn’t forget him and would carry on to help other cats in his memory.

This program will take manpower and money. True Blue Animal Rescue volunteers have begun the process for our community and we started a fund called Tiger’s fund so we can pay to spay, neuter and vaccinate all the cats we’ll be helping. If you’d like more information go towww.alleycat.org or www.t-bar.org If you’d like to help in Washington Co or your community email [email protected] or call 936-878-2349 and we’ll tell you how!

Thank You: First United Methodist

TBAR-Thank-You-First-United-MethodistWe would like to thank First United Methodist Church’s Youth group in Brenham for collecting donations for the animals at True Blue Animal Rescue!

Success Stories: Widget and Duke!

TBAR-Success-Story-Dog-Duke-RowdyThis week we are announcing two adoptions. First we have Widget with her Dad. Widget’s new name is Rowdy! Then there’s Duke, the stray puppy that was found living on an abandoned couch, in his new home! Two lucky puppies that will have unconditional love in their forever families. It doesn’t get much better than that! Lucky for these two pups more and more people adopt instead of shopping for new pets. Meanwhile so many puppies still go to shelters and are euthanized because we don’t have enough foster homes to take care of them while we network for new homes. SAVE a life, become a foster home today! Email [email protected]

Happy Tails: Piper

TBAR-Texas-Happy-Tails-PiperLast week we shared Piper and his post-skunk encounter crazy hair as our #TBARFluff and we wanted to follow that up with a look back at how far he has come, and how happy he is now in his forever home! Here’s Piper, before and after. This poor dog was abandoned and starving in the streets. He’s a small dog and survived by hiding in a culvert Pipe in a driveway. Lucky for him one kind person couldn’t look away and made it her business to catch him and get him help. She became his foster Mom and then adopted. Here he is spoiled and happy in his new home. A true rags to riches story!

Success Story: Moonshine!

TBAR-Texas-Success-Story-MoonshineMoonshine finally found his perfect match. His foster Mom has been working with him and getting him more comfortable with brushing, washing and cross ties. Meanwhile, she fell in love and finalized his adoption. Lucky Moonshine and his new Mom, Laura!
