MOOSE IS ON HIS WAY HOME❤️🐾

We are beyond relieved and incredibly happy to share that Moose was safely trapped early this morning and is officially on his way home to his family! We received another sighting late last week, thoroughly walked the area and set a trap where he’d been seen many times, and he’s now on his way home.

First and foremost, thank you. The amount of support, time, effort, and compassion shown throughout this situation has meant more to us than we can adequately put into words.

We especially want to thank Karen and Lori for everything they did to help bring Moose home safely, from distributing signs and flyers, to lending us the trap and setting it, to using their camera to remotely monitor it overnight. Your help was greatly appreciated.

We also want to thank everyone else who assisted in any way throughout this search:
💕Those who shared our posts far and wide
💕Helpful individuals who handed out flyers
💕The multiple people who called in sightings
💕Home owners & businesses who helped keep eyes on areas Moose was frequenting
💕Our contacts at Animal Control and the Sheriff’s Department for their assistance and guidance
💕Our staff, who spent countless hours working around the clock trying to safely locate Moose and bring him home

This has been an incredibly emotional and difficult experience for everyone involved. While we are choosing to focus on the positive outcome today, we also want to gently remind people that situations involving lost pets are heartbreaking and extremely difficult to navigate, whether it happens to an individual owner or to a business or organization caring for someone’s beloved pet.

No one ever wants this to happen. Our team was devastated by this accident, and every decision made throughout this process was done with Moose’s safety as the priority. We know emotions run high in situations like these because people care deeply about animals, as does our compassionate team at WCVC. We are incredibly grateful to those who approached this situation with kindness, understanding, and grace, and who focused their energy on helping bring Moose home safely.

Today, we are simply thankful. Thankful Moose is safe. Thankful for the community that came together to help. And thankful for everyone who supported the efforts to reunite him with his family.

Welcome home, Moose. ❤️

Wishing a very happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there. The joy, kindness, and love you bring to the lives of so many is commendable. Hopefully today you have a chance to reflect and spend time with your family.
