Nala’s Story Continues: Pupdate!

Mother’s Day is around the corner and this week, we’re celebrating all kinds of moms!

When we first shared Nala’s story, she had just given birth to twelve beautiful puppies. But her journey into motherhood took a sudden, frightening turn. Nala became dangerously ill—weak, lethargic, and unable to care for her babies. She needed urgent help. So did her pups. Thanks to your compassion—and the fast action of her foster families—Nala is recovering.

Moms are strong, resilient and a part of a community that understands each other. Nala needed help when it came to caring for her babies, and a group of amazing foster moms stepped up. They’ve taken on the exhausting task of feeding and caring for twelve little puppies day and night. They’ve offered warmth, comfort, and tireless care. They’ve done what moms do: they’ve shown up with love. And so have you.

You raised over $4,500 for this amazing family and we are so grateful for our generous community.

Your support has provided the medications and supplies that have made this care possible. You helped give Nala a fighting chance—and gave her puppies the nurturing they need to thrive. But we’re not at the finish line yet. The puppies are growing fast and they still rely on us for everything.

This Mother’s Day, will you honor a mom in your life by supporting a mama in need? A donation to our Project Patchwork Fund helps cover urgent medical costs, foster supplies, and the critical care families like Nala’s rely on. And when you give, you’re not just helping animals—you’re uplifting a community of mothers, of all kinds.

This Mother’s Day, we want to honor Nala—and the village of moms who stepped in when she couldn’t. Our foster moms have been nothing short of heroic. So, to our foster moms, to Nala, and to every caregiver who shows up with love: Happy Mother’s Day. We see you. We thank you. We couldn’t do this without you.
