Salty Animal Rescue
Share
We're a small, volunteer-run, foster-based non for profit animal rescue out of the Brantford, Dundas, and Hamilton area.
Sunny is huge!
These babes are coming any time now. I’ve been checking the camera nonstop the last few nights but she’s still holding out on us. Can’t complain because the goal is fat healthy kittens and mama.
All the nesting behaviour is happening. Her milk is in and the next step is the arrival of her babes.
She’s just the happiest girl to see us and if possible has become even more loving.
No matter what label you want to give them, semi feral, spicy, under socialized, or shy, most of them are just scared. A lot of these cats just need someone willing to be patient, earn their trust, and give them a little time to come around.
If you are wanting to foster a pregnant cat or kittens, kitten season is the time to do it. Rescues and shelters are desperate for fosters for the never ending amount of animals needing us right now. Especially when it comes to the under socialized guys.
As always, please remember to spay and neuter. I’ve been trying to keep things on the lighter side lately but the sad reality is there are countless Sunnys out there suffering, struggling to survive, and losing their lives.
Spaying and neutering truly saves so many.
How many babies do you think are in there? Last week I thought closer to 2 or even 3 but now I’m thinking 4🙄

Mama Kipling “Kippie” is waiting for all the applications to roll in!
She heads in for her spay this Thursday, but we’re accepting applications now so we can hopefully have the perfect home lined up for when she’s ready to go.
Kippie and her 4 babes were living outside in the Westdale area. She’s said to have been outside for quite some time, but she’s friendly enough that she must have been inside at some point.
She can still be shy and does take a little time to warm up and get used to her new environment. Elaine said she’s able to pet and love on her when she kneels down, but she gets up when she tries to sit with her. She will need a little extra help with continued socializing.
Once you’ve gained her trust, she’s a very sweet girl and has the happiest purr. She also rubs up on Elaine when it’s food time. We know she has a ton of potential with the right person willing to give her a chance!
I wish more people were open to the shy guys. With a bit of time they always end up being the biggest lovers.
Kippie has had some intros to the resident kitties, and she definitely needs a cat friend in the home.
She did meet recently adopted Duke. She was a bit unsure, but it could be because of the babes being near by and that dogs are new to her! She may work in a home with a dog, depending on the dog and with time to get used to them.
Kiddos would be similar. If it were a calmer home with a family willing to put in the extra socializing work, it’s likely she would adjust after some time!
Overall Kippie is a sweet Tort that just needs a little love and time to come around. She deserves a family committed to giving her only the best for the rest of her life.
If you think you may be the right fit for Kippie, please fill out an adoption application!

Saturday’s are her favourite🐺🏃
Skye was off to canicross with her foster mom this morning!
We are so grateful she gets so much love and enrichment from Jordan while she waits for that perfect forever home.
Skye
1.5 yrs
Good with dogs
Cats with proper intro
Small children potential
Fully vetted
Adoption fee: $550
We are looking for the very best match for her because that’s what she deserves.
Skye was found as a “stray” dragging a large chain before ending up at our local shelter. Shepherds rarely do well in a shelter setting and we couldn’t say no to taking her on.
Skye seemed to lack exposure to a lot of things when she first arrived at her foster home and was a bit insecure. Thanks to Jordan, she’s thriving and has shown just how much of an amazing dog she really is.
Skye is a goofy, happy girl and has been nothing but a love bug while in our care. She has a surprisingly low level of reactivity for a Shepherd. She’s great in her crate, does well in the car and loves a good belly rub. If you have a love for GSDs, she’s your girl!
She is young and is still working on her manners. She can be a bit play mouthy and jumps up when excited, so small children may not be the best fit. She’s been a sweet girl with kids around in a controlled setting.
She’s a good girl around the kitties in her foster home, after learning that chasing them isn’t their favourite thing. She’s been great with other dogs and would love a buddy.
Skye will benefit from continued training. Providing structure/boundaries will ensure that she keeps the label of “goodest girl ever”. She would do best with people that understand and respect the breed and are willing to set her up for success. She does have a big bark, but like many Sheppies, it’s all bark and no bite.
Crating is a requirement. She can be an opportunist if left out and will chew through a tether if she can. She loves her crate and it keeps her safe when she can’t be supervised!
Skye is an active girl. She would prefer to find a family that will make sure she gets to enjoy even more outdoor adventures.
