You may only need one neighbor to cover the part you cannot.
Ask for practical help such as a short-term safe place, a carrier, a ride lead, feeding support or someone who can connect you with an appropriate rescue resource.

Community help stays independent
People offering help act independently and decide what they are comfortable doing. The platform provides communication and organization, not dispatch or transportation services.
For an animal in immediate danger or a medical emergency, seek appropriate professional emergency or animal-control assistance rather than waiting for a community reply.
