The Rutland County Humane Society 2022 membership drive is now underway! The generosity of our members allows us to care for the homeless animals who come to us throughout the year. Through August, we have had 548 cats and kittens come through our doors, surpassing the 440 we cared for through August in 2020. Your membership helps to provide things like vaccines, parasite protection, spay/neuter surgery, microchips and more. It allows us to be there for each animal and provide them with what they need to grow into healthy and loved pets. If you would like to support the work of the Rutland County Humane Society, please consider becoming a member, or renewing your membership. You can do so by visiting rchsvt.org or calling 802-483-9171. Thank you to all of our members who have continued to support the work we do for the animals.

I know it was second grade because I remember the classroom. And I know what teacher was involved because I never forgot her or the moment I’m about to highlight. The year was 1974. I don’t have many memories from that stage of my life, but the following was poignant enough to have possibly set…
Celestial creature: Indigo bunting
June 4, 2025
There is nothing like the royal blue of an indigo bunting. In the Northeast, they arrive fashionably late to the spring fling, behind the vanguard of migrating warblers and other songbirds. On my morning walk in my frequent birding spot – my “patch,” as birders call it –I heard the sharp double-noted tune: “Look! Look!…
