Our Rescue Stories
For Rebecca and Andrew, it all started long before Iridescence Cares became a nonprofit. They’ve always believed that every animal deserves a chance to feel safe, loved, and seen. Since 2012, they’ve opened their hearts and home to countless rescues, helping over 36 animals find the care and comfort they deserved.
Some arrived scared or hurt, some were abandoned, and others just needed someone to believe in them. Each one became part of their story and a reminder of why compassion matters so much. Together, Rebecca and Andrew rescue, foster, and care for every animal, combining patience, dedication, and love to give each one the best chance at a happy life.
Today, that same spirit guides the future of Iridescence Cares, with a mission to rescue even more animals, support local fosters, and spread kindness through action.
Personal Rescue Stories
Pearl – Rescued from a shelter in Los Angeles, Pearl had been waiting for nearly a year and a half due to her autoimmune disease. Despite the challenges, she captured their hearts, and Rebecca and Andrew were thrilled to give this perfect girl a second chance at a happy life.
Gordie and Gus – Originally meant to be fosters, these cats became permanent family members. With Gus’s age and Gordie’s health issues, Rebecca and Andrew knew they could provide the care and love they deserved. After a year of some initial squabbles, they’re thriving—and life without them is unimaginable!
Adopted & Thriving
Ruby’s Story
Ruby was found running the streets of York City in April 2024 by one of the clients of Iridescence Salon & Spa — scared, but still full of sweetness. She found her forever home with the front desk manager of Iridescence, Danielle and her family.
Now Ruby spends her days surrounded by love, laughter, and four kids who homeschool — which means she’s rarely alone and always part of the fun. She’s settled right in, reminding us every day how second chances can lead to the happiest endings.
Jasper’s Story (Now Marlowe)
When Rebecca saw Jasper’s post on Facebook, she knew he needed help. Thanks to a little networking and a lot of heart, he found his perfect match with a previous client of Iridescence Salon & Spa.
Now known as Marlowe, he’s thriving in a busy, happy home with three kids and two dogs, living his absolute best life surrounded by love and playtime. Another reminder that sometimes, the right connections make all the difference.
