Big Sky CARES (formerly Big Sky Ranch/CATNIP Foundation)

Big Sky CARES (formerly Big Sky Ranch/CATNIP Foundation) is a remarkable no-kill shelter that dedicates itself to saving animals in need. With a team of amazing and caring people, the organization tirelessly works to rescue and rehabilitate cats and other animals, often taking in those that were previously scheduled for euthanasia. Despite being a relatively small rescue, they operate with a big heart, reaching out to help animals wherever they are needed, including in Louisiana. The shelter's staff is very friendly and caring, always going above and beyond to care for cats and kittens in the community. They are well organized, and the facility is kept clean and well cared for. The staff offers kind advice and support, especially to those bringing in very young or injured animals. Their unwavering commitment to the animals' welfare is truly admirable, even though they often work tirelessly without taking breaks. The organization relies heavily on community support through adoptions, volunteering, and donations to continue their vital work, and they are always in need of responsible volunteers.
