“This past year has been one of our busiest—and most rewarding—at the Serval Conservation and Educational Refuge! We’ve welcomed more than 10 new servals, bringing our total care population to 20. Each arrival has reminded us how much patience, specialized knowledge, and dedication these beautiful cats require. Despite the challenges, we were able to find safe, appropriate homes for a few of them—always a huge win given their unique needs. Two of our newest residents came from the Baltimore rescue effort in December, and seeing them settle in healthy and calm has been an incredible highlight. Every success story reinforces why we do this work!”
Fort Wayne Animal Care and Control celebrated a very successful Giving Tuesday. Though other organizations may have raised more, we are a 501c6 municipal animal shelter which has proven to be much more difficult to fundraise for, so my team and I are very excited about the growth and forward progress. :)
One of our biggest wins this past year was rescuing seven domestic rabbits who had been dumped at a local nature preserve on Easter Monday. It took multiple days, a team of volunteers (most of whom started as strangers), and a lot of teamwork to safely corral the rabbits while battling through some of the thickest brush imaginable — but we were able to capture every single one of them.
Carolina Beach Animal Hospital was incredible, partnering with us to spay/neuter the rabbits and get them fully vetted. All seven were eventually adopted together and are now living their happily-ever-after. That rescue effort not only saved their lives, it also became the catalyst for launching Coastal Carolina Rabbit Rescue — a new nonprofit dedicated to abandoned and at-risk domestic rabbits in our region. What started as an emergency response has grown into a mission-driven organization, and we’re really proud of how far this “one tough situation” has carried us in just a few months.
