This is a curtesy post for a community member relocating off island.
It may be a long shot, but here it goes.
We are looking for someone booked on American Airlines flight 2738, STT to MIA on August 4th who is willing to help the lady get her cat through security and carry her (the cat not the lady) on board and help her get the cat settled under her seat. That’s it. Your help would mean a community member can relocate with her beloved pet.
If you are on flight AA2738 and are willing to help, please send as a DM and we will connect you with the cat owner.
Thanks!
Thank you Sara!!
You know we love you here at the shelter. 💜🐶🐾 Thirsty Thursday with a happy ending...
After last week's island-wide power outage postponed the event, this month's Mutt Mixer was finally held Tuesday evening at Beach Bar St. John.
Every 2nd Tuesday of the month (well... usually 😉), a different St. John bar hosts a Mutt Mixer to benefit the Animal Care Center of St. John (ACC). For every Tito's drink sold, $2 is donated to help care for island dogs and cats while they wait for their forever homes.
Captain Sara has two rescue dogs—Koa and Arlo—both adopted from the ACC. Whenever she buys 50/50 raffle tickets at a Mutt Mixer, she enters them in her dogs' names.
This time, Koa's name was drawn! 🎉🐶
Instead of keeping the winnings, Koa "requested" that every penny be donated right back to the ACC so he could help more island pups get the same second chance he and Arlo received. ❤️
If you're on St. John, mark your calendar—the next Mutt Mixer will be at @stjbackbar on Tuesday, August 11. It's a fun evening for a great cause, whether you're there for the dogs, the raffle, or just a Tito's with friends.
Here's to rescue dogs, generous hearts, and giving back to the community that gave Koa and Arlo their start. 🐾❤️

I just love the juxtaposition of a big burly masculine presenting guy coming in to ask about kittens. It just makes me so happy.
Yesterday, one of the guys working on the excavators clearing the land for a new library parking lot came over. He said he was moving rocks and saw a little kitten! He doesn’t hurt animals so he wanted us to help find the kitten.
We searched and searched, even putting a trap with kitten food at the far end hoping they’d run that way. No luck. There were just too many places to hide. I picked up the trap after several hours thinking I’d try again later.
Not 15 minutes later, another one of the guys came running across the road with 2 tiny kittens. “We found them! Is this where I need to bring these?” Yes sir, you’re at the right place!
Meet our two little awesome authors, Fitzgerald and Hemingway. These sweet boys will be ready for adoption in a few weeks! They just need a little TLC and a round of vaccinations.
