My Nonprofit Reviews

When you think about rescue, most people just think its taking in happy dogs and cats and tail wags and cuddling and just piles and piles of puppies. But it's so much more, and so much more emotional than I ever thought. These people are literally saving the lives of animals and, at the risk of sounding ridiculous, pulling them from the jaws of hell. They put these animals ahead of themselves, ahead of their own lives and wants and needs. Sometimes making sure these animals are cared for and eat before they do. One of the animal advocates at TLC Rescue is my mother in law. I've watched with my own eyes while she's nursed hundreds of dogs and cats back to health. These poor dogs come to her on death's doorstep. Days from death. She brings them back from the brink in ways that make your heart cry. You can look in the eyes of these dogs and know immediately that they understand they are finally, finally safe. Finally in a place of love, finally able to eat, sleep on something soft, be INDOORS. Our two cats come from TLC; wild ferals born to a cat dumped by her owner in rural KY to be left to the elements, heavily pregnant. I look at my cats and know that if it weren't for TLC and these incredible people, my cats... and so many other cats and dogs, are left to their own. Domesticated animals we've taken into our homes, released into the wild like they aren't part of families. The only missions for TLC is to save these animals. Give them love, food, the chance to survive. They work tirelessly to bring them to health, find them forever homes with people ready to love. That's what this organization is about. Love. Love for God's creatures. Love for what these animals bring to our lives. Love for their wellbeing. My favorite charity, ever.
