Transforming Lives: How Muskogee's Rescue Saves Strays

December 1, 2025
Explore how Muskogee's Fur Babies rescue uses a thrift shop to fund surgeries and find homes for strays. Learn more about their impactful efforts.
In this feature, we focus on Fur Babies, an innovative rescue operation located in Muskogee that tackles the stray animal problem with a unique approach. The rescue operates a thrift store where all items are donated and proceeds support the animal clinic located in the same facility. This setup allows them to offer crucial medical procedures, like spaying and neutering, at a reduced cost. In the past year alone, Fur Babies has successfully treated over 2,000 animals. Additionally, they are part of a network that places strays in homes across the Midwest, showing a commitment to not just local but also regional animal welfare.
