There are critical steps to do #TNR safely for community cats. For example, don't leave cats in humane traps in spaces that aren't temperature controlled--and don't let cats out of their trap unless they're sedated for spay/neuter, or you're at the 'R' (Return) step in the process! We walk through it all here: https://ow.ly/hQSm50RJZSY

🚨 NEEDED: 39 seconds to save 398 beagles The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is paying the University of Missouri (MU) to infest 4-month-old puppies with HUNDREDS of bloodsucking ticks that will feast on these lab dogs with no anesthesia or pain relief. Forty puppies have already been acquired! But MU hasn't purchased all the dogs yet. We have a big opportunity-but a very small window of time to intercept-before MU obtains the other 358 puppies for their torturous lab experiments. To fight back, we've started a new citizen complaint petition to pressure the NIH bosses. YOU can help us wage war against our government's animal abuse. This new federal complaint is our best chance to win-there's strength in numbers! 💪 Isn't this worth just 39 seconds of your day? DEADLINE: Please take action-QUICKLY-to show NIH we mean business before MU purchases the dogs & feeds them to ticks --> a-ction.us/5pexJY #urgent #love #stop #sad #horrible #killing #save #inhuman #murder #beagle

#TNR Back to Basics: To make humane trapping easier, feed community cats out of UNSET traps for one to two weeks prior to the trapping day. This will get the cats comfortable with seeing and walking into traps. Remove the traps after the cats eat so there are no risks of theft, damage, or trapping a cat accidentally!

How would it feel if in your hardest moment, you couldn’t take all of your family with you? There is a well-established connection between animal abuse and intimate partner violence. Recognizing this link is crucial for understanding the opportunity for a comprehensive support system for survivors that includes provisions for pets. Nearly 50% of domestic violence survivors delay leaving a violent situation due to fear for their pet’s safety, and nearly 25% of survivors return due to fear for their pets. Harriet’s Haven for Pets at Tubman ensures the safety of all members of the family, whether they move on 2 legs or 4. You can help families stay together by making a gift to Harriet’s Haven and helping us reach our goal at https://lnkd.in/gs2t86Pf.

Today is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day—a time to consider how we can best protect the well-being of seniors in our communities, as well as the companion animals who bring them emotional comfort. Hundreds of thousands of seniors experience elder abuse—defined as the intentional infliction of pain, neglect, or financial exploitation of a vulnerable person over the age of 60—each year. Common signs of elder abuse include unexplained injuries, isolation, and sudden changes to a person’s financial situation. Elderly pet owners often have deep emotional ties to their animal companions, making them vulnerable to unscrupulous individuals seeking to exploit this bond. More than one-third of adult protection service caseworkers report their clients’ pets being threatened, injured, killed, or denied care. When responding to reports of abused and neglected animals, animal control officers may encounter situations involving elder abuse. Cross-training and cross-reporting among human services and animal protection agencies can help prevent and prosecute these interlocking forms of family violence. To learn more about how to recognize, prevent, and report elder abuse, consult the National Clearinghouse on Abuse in Later Life's website: https://lnkd.in/eDeTeyrP #WorldElderAbuseAwarenessDay #WEAAD2024
