What We've Been Up to

Since launching September 2023, our community has helped us rescue over 16 cats and we have happily found forever homes for nine. Your support is the foundation to our success, and every little donation and social media engagement has made a huge difference in the lives of these cats!

Uther

Meet Uther, our super happy boy. He was rescued by Nuzzles & Co. from the challenging landscape of the Navajo reservation, where countless homeless animals endure harsh conditions and high shelter euthanasia rates due to limited resources. In 2020, just a few months after his brother Gimli found his forever home, Uther too found a loving family with one of the Mountain Guardian founders.

Gimli

Meet Gimli, our resilient and loving pup who defied the odds. Rescued from a Navajo reservation, where countless homeless animals struggle to survive in dire conditions, Gimli found his forever home with one of the founders of Mountain Guardian in 2020. His journey from a place of hardship to a life filled with love and care is a testament to the transformative power of compassion and rescue efforts.
