🐾 Happy Veterinary Assistant Appreciation Week! 🐾

This week at the Fayette Regional Humane Society, we’re celebrating Veterinary Assistants Heather, Haylee, and Loree, along with Animal Health Technician Raina! 🎓💙

Over the past year, Haylee and Loree officially joined Heather as graduates of Veterinary Assistant schooling, and we are incredibly proud of the dedication, compassion, and teamwork all four of these ladies bring to our Animal Health Team at our Animal Care and Adoption Center each and every day. Raina has already become a valued part of the team, and we’re excited to support her continued journey in animal health as well.

Whether they’re assisting with the intake of new animals, medical treatment, comforting sick or frightened animals, helping care for animals recovering in our shelter, or answering the call when our humane agents need assistance in the field, their compassion and teamwork help make a difference every single day. 🩺🐾

Please help us celebrate these amazing team members by leaving them a message of appreciation below! 👇

What a happy ending for sweet Mochi! 💜

Last night at our animal care and adoption center, Mochi the ferret was reunited with her very relieved human mom after quite the unexpected adventure.

A humane agent picked up Mochi after a kind family became concerned about a ferret following them along the bike path. Wanting to make sure she was safe, they contacted police dispatch, who then sent a humane agent to bring her to safety.

Once at our center, Mochi got settled into her very own cozy cage complete with food, water, blankets to snuggle in, and plenty of places to hide and rest. Our animal health and care teams made sure Mochi stayed comfortable and had everything she needed while waiting to be reunited with her family.

According to Mochi’s family, she had escaped during what was supposed to be a routine walk in her zipped-up screened pet stroller. Unlike previous outings, Mochi managed to get out, ran down the creek bank near the bike path, and disappeared into the water. Her girl tried desperately to save Mochi, but eventually lost sight of her Wednesday evening.

Two days later, the family spotted our social media post about a found ferret and immediately recognized their beloved girl.

Mochi is five years old and currently battling lymphoma, requiring daily medication and special nutritional care, making this reunion even more emotional and important for her family.

We are so thankful for the caring family who stopped to help, the police dispatcher, the humane agent who made sure Mochi was safe, our dedicated animal health and care teams, and everyone who shares our found pet posts.

Because of so many compassionate people working together, Mochi is finally back where she belongs — home. 🐾

Tiny but mighty. 🐾

These five little kittens were found orphaned under a shed after a kind family discovered them alone and in need of help. A humane agent responded and picked them up this evening, bringing them safely into our care.

There is suspicion that their mother is deceased, making their rescue all the more urgent.

Here, Veterinary Assistant Loree is doing intake on one of the babies—making sure each kitten has been assessed, documented, and started on the care they need to stay healthy and safe.

From intake evaluation to vaccines, deworming, flea preventative, and a delicious meal, these little ones are now in good hands.

They may have had a rough start, but their story is now filled with warmth, safety, and second chances. ❤️🐱

Today, on International Firefighters’ Day, we proudly recognize and thank the firefighters who serve our communities with courage and compassion.

In humane law enforcement, we often see firsthand the critical role firefighters play—not only in protecting people, but in rescuing animals from danger and helping pet owners connect with our SAFE (Sheltering Animal For Emergencies) program.

Your willingness to face the unknown, your quick action in moments of crisis, and your commitment to saving lives—both human and animal—do not go unnoticed.

From all of us in humane law enforcement, thank you for your service, your partnership, and your dedication to protecting those who cannot protect themselves.

Stay safe, and know your work makes a difference every single day. 🚒🐾
