Self Care
Self-care is an integral part of animal welfare and is a must when it comes to caring for the animals we all do. But this can take a toll on your heart, mind, body and spirit. It is imperative to pay attention to the signals, have a strong network of support, accept help when needed and step back when necessary. We aren’t doing the animals we rescue and care for any good if we do not care for ourselves properly.
If you know someone who is experiencing this, we must stress the importance of being supportive, kind and being an attentive listener.
Here are three fabulous resources that we refer to often ourselves:
The Compassion Fatigue Awareness Project
Also, Shannon is a Certified Pet Loss and Bereavement Counselor, if you just need to talk about any of the struggles you may be having.

Mojo's Hope Outreach Program
The goal with our Outreach Program is to help community members keep their cats with special needs (family members) instead of being put in the position of surrendering him/her due to veterinary needs.
This is a two step process. To qualify, purrlease complete our Outreach Application first. Once this is approved by our board and vet team we will email to let you know. Then you will need to complete the 2nd form before each vet visit and email that to us at mojoshope@gmail.com. Both forms are available to download below.
