I’d like to share something important with all of you.
A filmmaker/documentary creator recently reached out wanting to come to the Permian Basin and document what animal rescues here are truly facing every single day. He also asked to feature Midland Cat Wranglers in both his podcast and an upcoming documentary.
After watching his work, I realized this isn’t about social media attention or creating “sad animal stories.” It’s about showing the reality behind rescue—the reality that our staff, volunteers, fosters, and supporters live every day.
The abandoned kittens.
The pregnant moms left to fend for themselves.
The sick and injured cats.
The endless cycle of unwanted litters.
The overcrowded shelters.
The feral cat colonies.
The rescues struggling to keep up while trying to save every life they can.
Most people never see what happens behind the scenes. They don’t see the bottle babies being fed every two hours. They don’t see the emergency vet visits, the medical cases, the heartbreaking decisions, the long nights, or the financial burden that rescues carry every single day.
They don’t see the volunteers trapping cats in the heat, the fosters opening their homes, or the staff working long after their shifts have ended because animals still need care.
And honestly… people need to see it.
Not for sympathy.
Not for drama.
But because awareness creates action, and action creates change.
The animal crisis in the Permian Basin deserves attention. The solution starts with education, responsible pet ownership, and spay and neuter programs. Until then, rescues, shelters, and animal advocates will continue doing everything they can to hold the line.
We are honored to have the opportunity to help tell these stories and shine a light on the work being done every day by so many dedicated people in our community.
Stay tuned for more details as filming begins. 🎥🐾

I focus on the rescuers in the trenches, those who are directly involved in the day today efforts to save and rehabilitate cats and dogs.
