It’s been two years since we started this crazy little operation of ours. In that time, we’ve adopted out more than 200 dogs, cats, rabbits and even some pigs! We’ve traveled in the name of saving lives to Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Idaho, Minnesota, Colorado, Kansas and busted our butts right here in Nebraska. We’ve seen our ranks quintuple in size from our five founding members. Our network of supporters jumped from a few hundred to a few thousand. We have lobbied lawmakers to change animal cruelty laws. We’ve held parties and protests. We have laughed, cried, lost our minds, found them again and started the whole process over. Many days, rescue seems like incredibly high-stakes laundry. It’s never over, no matter how caught up you think you are. But we’ve been afforded the great luck of finding like-minded folks to join our team who also have horrible senses of humor to get through the hard days, celebrate the good and brace us for the unknown. They understand and support our burning desire to shoulder the hardships of rescue, while making it fun and entertaining for the followers, and quite frankly, that’s all we set out to do. Save some animals, have some fun, absorb the sadness (because there’s MORE than enough of that to go around these days) and go to bed at night knowing we honored our absent furry friends and did all we could to help as many as we could. That’s what we will ALWAYS be about. However, none of any of this would be possible without you- our followers who trust us day in, day out, who adopt our animals and share our posts and give us hope that just maybe, someday, our job will be done, and domesticated animals won’t find themselves in peril due to their gross overpopulation. We can dream, right? Let’s keep on dreamin’. Two years in, and we’re just getting warmed up. 

Thank you for believing in this rescue.
