Happy World Turtle Day! 🐢
Remember Seeker, the rare Kemp’s Ridley sea turtle?
After fighting liver disease and spending nearly two years in a turtle rehab facility, he finally made his return to the ocean. PTTR flew Seeker to Jekyll Island, Georgia, where he swam right into the waves—AND into a bright future!
It is only because of YOUR support that we can urgently fly endangered and at-risk animals, like Seeker, to safety.

A Mother’s Day Miracle for Sophie 🐾
Every mom knows there is no such thing as a “sick day.” For mama-dog Sophie, that couldn’t have been more true.
Sophie arrived at the animal shelter in critical condition, battling two life-threatening illnesses: heartworm and parvovirus. Despite fighting for her own life, this resilient mom never stopped caring for her puppies.
The good news? Sophie received the emergency care she needed to survive and thrive!
And, all thanks to your support, her young family traded an overcrowded shelter for the Freedom Flight that they deserved—just in time for Mother’s Day!
