After accidentally running into a swimming pool, this little bunny was brought to us for care. Fortunately, there were no major injuries, and was overall healthy. Our team provided subq fluids and close monitoring to support recovery. After 9 days, this resilient little bun was released back home!
This young bobcat kitten was unresponsive and in critical condition when she was found. She was emaciated, anemic and suffering from mange. Once in our care, she received fluids and medications to treat infections and support her recovery. After months of rehabilitation, she was released home!
Mother’s Day isn’t until May, but trust us, this special gal shouldn’t have to wait until then to receive the kudos she so clearly deserves. Meet Hyena. Despite coming to us in rough shape, the new mom tended to her pups with all she had, making sure they grew big and strong with barely a break
With San Diego County Department of Animal Services, we're offering free and low-cost spay/neuter surgeries at our San Diego Campus!
This #WorldSpayDay, we’re reminding our community just how powerful one simple decision can be: spaying and neutering your pets! Spaying and neutering reduces overcrowding in shelters, eases strain on limited resources and most importantly, saves lives.
Mija’s just popping in to say she hopes you have a great weekend!
February is National Spay and Neuter Awareness Month.

After 252 days in our care, our beloved Santana has officially been adopted! He was so adored by staff & volunteers that he affectionately earned the title of “Mayor” of our Oceanside Campus. So when the day finally came for him to head home it was only fitting that a crowd gathered to send him off.
Kyle came to us last summer after surviving a coyote attack. Because he was bitten, he had to complete a six-month rabies quarantine. When he passed quarantine, our staff went all out with a graduation party. There were banners. Party hats. Stickers. Kyle trivia. And yes, a graduation cap & gown

Apollo came into our care in April of 2022. Initially shy, Apollo slowly began to come out of his shell with the support of our team. Over time, he made incredible progress building confidence. And on Jan. 17, all that hard work paid off. A family came in specifically to meet him to adopt!
When we rescued 40 dogs from an apartment in La Mesa, 3 of them were puppies just over a week old. They were placed in a foster home for around-the-clock care. Shortly after, as our teams completed examinations of all the dogs, we were able to identify their mother and reunite her with her puppies!
From the moment Pips was adopted, it was clear he was ready to settle in and start her new life. Her adopter shared: "Just wanted to say thank you for rescuing Pips she is so happy in her new home! She’s been sweet, playful & curious. Thank you for all the care you gave her. She’s already so loved!"
We’ve got an unusual crew in care right now — three baby desert cottontails! This tiny crew was found last month and brought to us for care. Because our team doesn't typically see babies this young this time of year, their arrival was quite the surprise!
If you need a little joy today, check out these clips from our first raccoon release of the year! Our PW team recently released these rehabilitated raccoons to Los Peñasquitos Preserve, and watching them return home is impossible not to smile at.
Our ERT was called to Alpine to assist in a technical rescue for a horse named Jasmine after she went down and was unable to get back up on her own. Our team worked tirelessly to stabilize and lift her safely, giving this senior horse a second chance!
We're stepping into the new year with a VERY special new beginning! After nearly a year in our care, our beloved Dingo has finally found his home.

The holidays can be wonderful … and they can also be a lot. So here’s a moment of pure seasonal joy: a handful of curious kittens discovering festive décor for the very first time. May their tiny paw-bops and big bright eyes lift your spirits today.
Fargo’s facial expressions never fail to make us laugh but what we can’t quite pin down is what’s going on inside his head. Did he forget to take the laundry out of the washer before leaving the house? Is he trying to remember where he knows you from? Is he attempting to process some strange news?
The face you make when you're surprised with a bag full of Christmas toys 🥹
We have VERY specific taste 👀
We will never get over the joy of seeing a shelter pet thriving in their new home. Bubba Barx’s new family shared: "We wanted to let you know that Bubba Barx is the sweetest boy ever! My family and I are so in love. He truly is the sweetest boy. Thank you all so much for all the work you guys do!"
Please enjoy some ASMR courtesy of our wildlife residents!
Christmas came early for pets at our Escondido Campus as Santa Claws (or should we say, Santa PAWS) stopped by to spread some holiday cheer! They proudly told him they’ve been exceptionally good this year … and that their only holiday wish is a home for the holidays.
