This holiday season, our thoughts turn gratefully to our Furkids family for helping us save so many lives this year.🧡 This includes 41 cats carelessly hoarded into a UHaul truck and 1,942 pets from county animal control shelters across Georgia--relieving the burden on those facilities and providing a second chance at life to animals who otherwise would have no hope.

So, on this Thanksgiving Day, we send our love, respect, and appreciation to our staff, volunteers, adopters, fosters, sponsors, and donors. The Furkids mission would be impossible to achieve without your support of our daily mission. Thank you for making this year a great success for animals in need. We wish you a joyful and abundant Thanksgiving! 🐾 Love, Furkids Animal Rescue and Shelters

If you're looking to add a smile to your holidays, Alfonzo P has got ya covered! 🐶

Alfonzo is one of the lucky homeless dogs that were transported by a rescue group in Puerto Rico to Furkids in February, and he’s been waiting to find his permanent home ever since! He is a jolly bulldog-mix who enjoys being out in the play yard at Furkids, going on walks, and taking naps—so if you’re looking for a best friend to cozy up next to as the days get shorter and colder, he’s your guy! Alfonzo P would do best as an only dog in an adult-only home/ home with older kids. Adopt him today and save this smiley pup’s life!🐾 (Link in bio for adoption info)

We need your prayers now‼️ Yesterday evening, we got a call about Jingle Bells-- a poor kitty found by a community cat caregiver in Gainesville that appears to have had her head stuck in something.

She's lost a lot of skin and the area is very badly infected. Right now she’s hospitalized and on an IV. Although she has a 50/50 chance at this point due to the severity of the infection, she’s proven to be a fighter and we are going to give her every possible bit of help. You can help through your prayers, well wishes and by any donations you can provide. We will know more about treatment plans on Monday. Jingle Bells is heavy on our hearts and minds today, thank you.

When Lemon Tart was returned to Furkids, he turned every head in the room...

This scruffy guy was brought back to us after his previous owners were unable to care for him any longer. Currently, he is emaciated and in the process of growing back his fur after having several matts removed. And now, we’re looking into possible neurological damage from a past ear infection.

Despite Lemon Tart’s shaggy looks, we can’t emphasize enough how special this baby is.🧡 He loves trotting around the adoption room with his bonded brother Finnegan, and adores cuddling with volunteers and staff members! He'll never turn down a treat (or two) and he gives a five star hug! Right now, Lemon Tart needs a foster home to help him gain weight and feel soothed in a home environment. If you can help house this baby, please DM us. Thank you!

Happening now‼️ When one of our vets was contacted yesterday about a stray cat that was senselessly shot, our medical team immediately took him in...

Meet Bob Marley, our newest Furkid facing an amputation surgery today after being shot in the right leg, resulting in a broken humerus. The bullet is still lodged in his leg and we can’t even begin to understand the amount of pain, cruelty and confusion this innocent creature has been through. This amputation will cost us around $750, but we’re determined to get this Furkid the care he needs so he can live peacefully in our shelter. Please help support sweet Bob Marley with prayers and donations to his amputation surgery costs. Thank you so much!🧡 (Link in bio to donate)

Adorable Joe P has our staff wrapped around his paw!🐾

Joe P loves nothing more than cuddling with his people and playing out in the yard with his four-legged shelter buddies! Joe loves to run around, so he’d do best in a home with a big yard with owners who are up for play time! Joe P can be shy at first, but with time he warms up to you and welcomes kisses, belly rubs and cuddles. His leash work has improved tremendously since he first arrived at Furkids, and after eight months in the shelter, Joe P is ready for his new family to come along. Can you help this happy pup find his fur-ever home?🐶 (Link in bio for adoption info)

When Furkids rescued Freddie, Fawn and their two sisters from animal control, all four had ringworm and were horribly malnourished. They had the bloated bellies that are prevalent in malnourished babies and were less than half the weight they should've been. Sadly, one sibling passed away pretty quickly, and while the other made it through ringworm treatment, we lost her unexpectedly overnight. But with healing and rehab at Furkids, today Freddie and Fawn sit in our adoption room as miracle babies!! All odds were against any of them surviving, and Freddie and Fawn are still here ready to tell the tale to their future adopters.😻

Our volunteers and staff describe the girls as cuddly and holdable! They love to play and have wonderful purrs. Help us find this miracle bonded pair a home today and apply for their adoption at Furkids.org! 🧡🐾 (Link in bio)

Every Furkid is special, but our Perimeter PetSmart kitties are taking the spotlight tonight!😻

We have no doubt that Randolf (who actually got adopted today!!) Mortimer, Lyra, Kip, Taffy and Pepper will be great pets, and we’re shocked these babies haven’t found homes yet! Lesley and Jan, our PetSmart volunteers, couldn’t say enough loving words about each cat: Kip is incredibly playful, Mortimer instantly cuddles up on your lap, Lyra is the queen of her cat tree castle, Pepper has a special spunk and confidence, and so much more. We’d go on, but you’ll have to meet these guys in person to experience all the love they can give! Help us give these angels a second chance during @petsmartcharities National Adoption Week! (Link in story to adopt). Thank you! 🧡🐾

Furkids has LESS than 17 hrs to reach our Give Atlanta goal‼️

Our competition is right on our tails, so we urgently need your support to help us win the 1st prize of $8,000 for our homeless, traumatized animals like Blink...

Blink was found in the wheel of a car, malnourished and abandoned. Her eyes were so infected they were sealed shut, her temp and weight were critically low, and she was infected with a parasite. Thanks to our vets and one incredible foster mama, Blink has now fully recovered and will be available for adoption THIS Thursday!😻

Countless helpless animals like Blink need saving now, and your generosity helps Furkids heal them and find them deserving homes! Can you help us during these final moments of Give Atlanta by donating to our lifesaving cause?🧡 Thank you! (Link in bio to donate)

TOMORROW kicks off another @petsmartcharities National Adoption Week! Our goal is 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ cat adoptions and all FIV/FELV and seniors 8+ will have waived adoption fees.😻🎉 Apply today to adopt a PetSmart furkid and help us reach our adoption goal! Please share this post to your stories to spread the word, thank you!🧡 (Link in story for details)
