Pepper is a confident six-year-old tuxedo cat who first came to AWLMC in 2022. Since then, she’s blossomed from a semi-feral street cat into the pampered queen of the AWLMC shelter – which she rules with an iron paw. When she’s not busy overseeing shelter activities, Pepper enjoys birdwatching and playing with wand toys. She has a couple of favorite volunteers, but takes a long time to trust others and is known to swat at people’s ankles when they walk by. AWLMC will provide Pepper with a home for as long as it takes for an adopter to fall in love with her grumpy exterior.

Here, members of Late`s family stride across their island home. Save the Chimps is home to more than 200 rescued chimpanzees living in family groups on twelve separate 3- to 5-acre islands. The companionship of a chimpanzee family and the freedom to choose how they spend their days are cornerstones of sanctuary life.
Thank you to the Doris Day Animal Foundation for supporting the care and lifelong sanctuary of our chimpanzee residents.

Brothers Pumpkin and Garfield needed a good home and luckily they found it with Scottsboro AL resident Gwen Ford!
Both of these one year old boys have been neutered with Spay Neuter Jackson County AL thanks to a grant from the Doris Day Animal Foundation!
Now they are living their best life and not contributing to our large overpopulation of kittens and puppies.
Thank you DDAF!

One of the best things about our Rez Vet clinics is what we call our door to door component. During door to door services, we bring free veterinary care right to our clients’ doorsteps!
That’s where we met Q-Tip.
This beautiful Siamese cat is a senior, but she certainly doesn’t look like it! She shares her home with her loving human family and nine other dogs and cats. We were so happy to be able to get Q-Tip and all of her siblings up to date on their shots. Her owners were especially grateful because all of their pets are elderly, and with so many, it would have been difficult for them to transport them to our chapter house location.
Our favorite thing about this particular home visit was learning how Q-Tip and all of her siblings found their way to their humans. From trash bins, to ditches, to parking lots, Q-Tip’s owners have rescued and adopted stray dogs and cats wherever they come across them.
We are honored to help such caring humans and grateful to DDAF for helping make this possible.

This month we celebrate the birthdays of two of our senior chimpanzee residents! Yolanda and Boy are both turning 57.
Yolanda is very fond of vegetables, particularly celery, and loves relaxing in hammocks. She enjoys spending time on the island with her family by her side.
Boy loves basking in the sun and picking cattails along the waterway for a tasty snack. His favorite activity is grooming—as long as he can find a family member willing to sit still long enough to endure one of his marathon grooming sessions!
Many thanks to the Doris Day Animal Foundation for supporting the care of our senior chimpanzee residents.

Lucky is a sweet, sociable six-year-old brown tabby who has been adopted from and returned to AWMLC twice, due to no fault of her own. Lucky LOVES people and can often be found sleeping the day away in a volunteer’s lap. Unfortunately, Lucky has been experiencing chronic digestive issues recently. Funding from the Doris Day Animal Foundation is helping AWLMC to cover the cost of her vet care, including an ultrasound and special prescription food. Lucky is currently in a foster home until she feels well enough to return to the shelter – and hopefully to be adopted for good!

At Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh’s Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, releases of strong and healthy wild animal patients back to natural habitat is the greatest reward of all.
A hearty flock of fifteen Mallard ducks was released at the end of July after being found orphaned and admitted to the WRC over two months earlier. Witnessing them waddle to freedom and leave their wading pool behind for an expansive and serene lake is a breathtaking sight worth sharing!
Supporters of wildlife rehabilitation at HARP have more ways than ever to directly engage in these triumphant release experiences. Nearby private and public property owners of yards, municipal parks, forested tracts, and other green spaces, can apply to be a registered HARP release site. Carefully evaluated by a WRC Release Coordinator who visits the site multiple times throughout the year, many conditions are recorded and tracked including topography, species of flora and fauna observed, and proximity to roadways and other human hazards, to understand which patients will be the best fit for the environment and a chance to thrive. HARP maintains approximately 90 registered release sites to choose from when considering their lifelong needs.
Avid wildlife advocates can also join HARP’s ‘Wild Bunch’ membership for insider, behind-the-scenes tours of our rehab facility, educational opportunities, regular newsletter updates, and the exclusive perk of attending wildlife releases alongside HARP staff.
