"It would be easier to tell you which bones AREN'T broken than which ones are..." This was the call we received from VSS. This is Cayden and he is the sweetest kitty on the planet. He was hit by a car and suffered from his face being fractured. His entire face. Saving St. Louis Pets brought him to VSS for treatment and were able to raise $600 for his emergency medical needs. They called us to take over his care, and now he needs your…

These precious pups are Dimples and Petey THESE photos. These are the photos we saw on another rescue group’s page. They made us physically gasp and tore our hearts out. Inhumane is not nearly a strong enough word to describe the incredible cruelty and abuse these dogs endured. We simply couldn’t see these photos and not help these suffering souls. They are both now at Stray Rescue in the trauma center, and we are only able to provide their medical care because of you –…

Tears of Joy A rescue you'll have to see to believe Sometimes the streets are quiet, but that can all change in an instant. I spotted a dirty, white, female engorged with milk. I could tell she was a nursing mom, roaming and looking for food. She stopped and watched me as I put a pile of food down for her. She watched as I walked away, then came up to eat. I was hoping that once she ate and had a full belly, she…

This girl is the sweetest! A call came in that a stray dog was being picked on by neighborhood kids. They said they were chasing her an throwing sticks/rocks at her. An adult neighbor led her into his yard and closed the gate to hold her until we got there. She was quite scared but we can tell she is just the sweetest baby. We named her Sister Moonshine. She'll get the medical care she needs thanks to our incredible supporters! Help with her medical…

After receiving a call that some good Samaritans found an injured dog, we rushed to meet them. When we arrived, we were greeted by a very sweet dog who had been badly injured. His fur was stained and matted with blood, although we couldn’t find the source of where it had come from. And his eye was painfully red and bulging. We didn’t know what had happened to him, but we knew he needed help fast. We quickly loaded him into the rescue jeep and…

After the Virgin Islands suffered a one-two punch by two rare Category 5 hurricanes this fall, Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria left nothing but devastation in their wake. 73% of the 103,000 residents were left without power, and 33,000 of those individuals and families applied for assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Months later, residents are still grappling with daily survival while major rebuilding is underway. Many families had to flee their homes. So many animals and family pets were left behind. Dogs were…
