In 3 days, on April 4th, I will be turning 36.

There was a time in my life when I never imagined I would make it to 21. But I’m still here—and while I continue to navigate my own healing, I remain deeply committed to helping the animals who depend on us.

Right now, I’m asking my community—neighbors, friends, and anyone who believes in compassion—to consider supporting my rescue efforts.

Every contribution goes directly toward:

• Spay & neuter (TNR) services

• Emergency and routine medical care

• Transportation to clinics

• Food, litter, and essential supplies

I aim to provide affordable TNR services at just $45 per cat, which includes spay/neuter surgery, SNAP testing, microchipping, flea treatment, and additional care when needed. This cost is through TNR services provided by those able to secure appointments. The cost is slightly higher when using other resources. It may not sound like much, but it adds up quickly—especially while living on disability income.

This work is personal.

I am a survivor of domestic violence, and caring for animals became a part of how I rebuilt my life. Rescue gave me purpose when everything else felt uncertain. Every life I’ve helped save—and even those I’ve lost—has shaped that purpose.

This past year has not been easy. My housing, my safety, and my ability to continue this work have all been challenged, and antagonized. But I’m still here, starting again, and still fighting—for them and for myself.

Your support helps create:

• Second chances for animals in need

• Trauma-informed, compassionate care

• A growing foundation for a true sanctuary

Thank you for believing in second chances—for both people and animals.

I’m still building, still healing, and still showing up.

One life at a time.
