PARROTS GLUED TO TREE WILL FLY FREE IN RAINFOREST:
Justice was served in the West African rainforest recently when 14 African Grey Parrots were confiscated from the grip of a smuggler headed for Nigeria. The birds’ capture from the rainforest canopy symbolizes the brutality of the exotic bird trade here, yet their recovery sends perhaps a more profound message about the priceless contributions of wildlife rehabilitators who seize every opportunity to help.
In order to trap the parrots i...

Snow Storm Hits Cat Sanctuary
14th Dec 2012, by The Great Animal Rescue Chase
It looks as though a white Christmas is a sure-fire guarantee for the residents of Cat Shelter Felix in Serbia, and while the cats are greeting the white stuff with mixed reviews, the sanctuary’s caretaker fears this could be the first in a series of super storms. Some of the cats playing on the patio before the storm hit. “The youngsters are having a great time and loving the snow but most of the older kitties are definitely not impressed,” explains the sanctuary’s founder and full...

The Harmony Fund international animal rescue charity is reaching out to help in bitterly cold climates where street cats need more than a little help. We're delighted to play Santa to so many rescue squads in Serbia, Bosnia, Ukraine, Greece, Turkey and here in the United States.
Our surprise donations are bringing tears to rescuers who never would have dreamed that help would come from far, far away. Just yesterday, we helped in Serbia where a huge snowstorm has covered a cat sanctuary compr...

Kate Golubinski is a 19-year-old fitness traine who never had a dog of her own, but after seeing a photo of a small black dog in a high kill animal shelter in New York City, she could think of nothing else.
Kate's intuition pleaded with her to save this dog. By the 4th night she couldn't sleep and the next morning she and her boyfriend drove to the shelter to find Ella. She was not in any of the cages and they began to worry. After a bit of a search, it turned out that Ella was in quarantine...

Another family of cats saved from a violent attack in Turkey. We've just sent more funding to volunteer Manuela Wroblewski stationed in Avsallar, but what she needs most is reinforcements - qualified volunteers to help in the feeding and care of street animals here. To inquire about adopting a cat from Turkey or spending time offering hands-on support - or if you work with a US rescue group who could possibly coordinate quarterly adoptions for a handful of cats, please visit the dedicated Facebo...

Annie Statton writes, "Recently I have become involved with trying to catch an injured fox. We have a cage waiting outside to tempt her inside. This poor fox is hobbling around on 3 legs. She follows me around the streets at night when I walk the dog ,so I'm hoping she'll do her usual trick and follow me home. If and when she is caught she will be taken to secret world wildlife centre for treatment. Fingers crossed !!!"
Let's lend our support and prayers to Annie as she does her best to help ...

Brambleberry (pictured here with Sabrina) was rescued 3 years ago from a feral colony that was under attempted extermination. Three years later, extraordinary circumstances gave us an opportunity to save his brother who was still living outside and had returned to the area. His brother, now named Huckleberry, lives in a cozy barn sanctuary near our headquarters.
We are so grateful for all the opportunities we have to save homeless cats near and far. The whole month of December will be devo...

Snowflake had been living in a treetop for at least a week. He would quickly descend to the ground to receive a daily meal from a neighbor and then retreat again.

CATS RESCUED FROM MEAT TRUCK GET MORE HELP!
A second donation was just sent to China to help in the recovery of 500 cats rescued from the meat truck. It's nothing short of a miracle that a police officer stumbled upon this truck and we are in awe of the faithful volunteers who blockaded the truck for hours negotiating a surrender of the cats.
We are tremendously GRATEFUL to all of the Harmony Fund supporters who reached out and made donations today to help these cats as part of "Operati...

The Boys Meet Buddy

A few months ago when Buddy, a black lab mix, was found running down Maybank Highway on John’s Island, South Carolina. It quickly became apparent that something was wrong with his eyes, and it turned out that he needed surgery to repair the eyelashes that were pointing inward in a birth defect that made it feel as though he had gravel beneath his eyelids. Volunteer Tracie Mitchum was able to secure a deep discount for the procedure...
