Is Qbert the one for you?

January 8, 2018 by CVRR

I have an almost three year old daughter ❤️😍😆🙈….. And as anyone who has ever had a three year old will attest to, she is sort of this amazing tiny mixture of the sweetest most gentle little lamb and the Mad Hatter. This morning she was frantically searching for this tiny little 2 dollar trinket she refers to as “squishy pony”. Her anxiety about not being able to find this worthless little toy (for which I am picturing all the ways I’d love to decapatate and set it on fire while I feign extreme interest in our envevor to recover him) is as real as any “real” crisis in an adult life.

This same patience and understanding is something we frequently have to apply to our rescue dogs. QBert has had multiple homes in his short life. As each home was ripped away, his anxiety grew. Finally he found a true partner when once again he lost that family and his home to massive hurricane damage. He was a lost soul. His foster home has helped him grow more confident and taught him to funnel his nervous energy in healthy ways. I suspect he will have some set backs when he finds his forever family so we really want to make sure that whoever takes this endearing little lab mix into their home and heart is really prepared to KEEP him there and offer the kind of patience and acceptance that we all need from time to time. QBert is jumpy so we think a home without little kids is best. He is such a loving and devoted fellow, we know he will continue thrive with consistant fair training and love.

Central Virginia Regional Rescue
Yesterday alone, CVRR welcomed 22 kittens into our care.We saw the plea for help from a local animal shelter in a neighboring county. Every single cat kennel in their facility was full. They had reached code red (maximum capacity), and with new cats and kittens continuing to arrive, impossible decisions were looming. We knew we had to do what we could.22 tiny lives were transferred into our care, 22 lives saved, 22 lives now have a chance because our community refuses to look away when animals need help.But rescue is truly a team effort, and taking in 22 kittens at once comes with an enormous need for supplies and resources. Our foster homes are filled with hungry little mouths, messy litter boxes, and kittens who will need medical care, vaccinations, and lots of love before they're ready for adoption.Right now, our most urgent needs are:🐾 Wet kitten food🐾 Dry kitten food🐾 Pee pads🐾 Kitten litter**🏠 more kitten foster homes 🏠**If you've been thinking about helping, now is the time. Donations from our kitten wishlist make an immediate impact, and monetary donations help us purchase supplies and cover veterinary care for these little ones. And more foster homes are our only option for being able to continue helping kittens.Kitten season is relentless, and shelters and rescues throughout our region are feeling the strain. Yesterday's transfers may have helped create space for more animals in need, but the crisis is far from over.Thank you for standing with us, supporting local rescue efforts, and helping us give these 22 kittens the future they deserve. Every bag of food, every box of litter, every dollar donated helps save lives.Together, we can make sure these kittens know safety, comfort, and love instead of uncertainty. ❤️🌟 WISHLISTS 🌟 🐈‍⬛ Chewy: bit.ly/cvrr-chewy 🐈‍⬛ Amazon: bit.ly/cvrr-kittens🌟 DONATE 🌟 🐈 Venmo.com/CVRRescue 🐈 PayPal.me/CVRRescue 🐈 cvrrescue.org/donate 🌟 SIGNUP TO FOSTER KITTENS 🌟 cvrrescue.org/foster-application ...
