Then There Were 7

A good Samaritan from Covington has 7 guests.  She is willing to care for them, but the kittens have some hair loss and we need to determine the cause. With your donation, we can get them fully vetted & fixed!

Success Stories

Over the years, Wags and Whiskers Rescue has helped thousands of animals find loving homes. They have come to us from every imaginable situation—hoarding cases, breeders closing their doors, families facing hardship, boarding facilities caring for abandoned pets, community cats that decided indoor living sounded much better than life outdoors, and pulling from our local county shelters.

No matter where they came from, each one had a story.

The photos on this page represent just a tiny collection of the lives that we have changed through rescue, compassion, and second chances. Behind every happy ending is a journey filled with dedicated volunteers, generous supporters, veterinary care, foster homes, and adopters willing to open their hearts.

 

These heartwarming stories remind us why we do what we do. Every adoption creates space to help another animal in need, and every happy ending proves that second chances matter.
