Nicole Navarro's passion for animal welfare and rescue began at a young age, nurtured by her upbringing on a sprawling horse farm in Western Pennsylvania.
Her journey with foxes started in 2018 while volunteering at the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office Animal Farm in Key West, Florida. It was there that she recognized the urgent need for dedicated sanctuaries capable of providing lifelong care for foxes rescued from the fur trade.
Determined to make a difference, Nicole founded Pawsitive Beginnings Inc. in March 2020, creating a safe haven where rescued foxes can heal, thrive, and inspire change.
