Pet of the Day: Tardis

Submitted

I am about as calm as a cat can be on arrival at the shelter. I am Tardis, an eight-month-old male. I am just so sweet, the volunteers cannot understand how I can possibly still be here…a hidden secret treasure undiscovered. Will you find the golden goose…or kitty cat?

Pet of the Day: Alysse

Submitted

I am one sweet and precious little Alysse. I am low-key, quiet, and friendly.

They were loving on me in the shelter, but I got very blue, and Miss Bev decided to get me outta here for some spa R&R in a foster home.

I would be perfect for your lap. Yes, I am front declawed (please don’t do that) and so I must be an indoor only cat! [Read more…]

Pet of the Day: Smokey

Submitted

I am the most handsome Smokey and very pettable two-year old neutered male.

They tell me that my eyes are magnetic and will pull you in…is it working for you? I was surrendered with my two siblings, and that makes my heart hurt. But it can be mended when you scoop me up and promise me forever. Will you?

Chunk here—just about the friendliest guy you’ll meet!

They called me Chunk ’cause I’m such a chunky muscle boy. I’m a young male American Bulldog mix.
