Tobias—what a perfect name for me! It’s the Greek translation of a Hebrew name that means “the goodness of God.”

I look like I may be an American Foxhound mix, around two, and I’m super friendly! I’m ready to be your forever friend! Better hurry!

Queen Neferkitty is a healthy senior looking for a loving forever home. She is a good girl who would prefer to be an only kitty. She has a healthy appetite, still likes some playtime, and likes attention. She does have a limit though and likes her space.

This girl was left in a box at the shelter. Please help us show her there is someone who will love her and never leave her.

Why did they call me Spot? Because I am Spot-ON! I’m a fun puppy, maybe four months old, very trainable, and just an all around happy dude!

Wanna play? I am ready! I came in on the 20th and want the heck outta here NOW! I’m fun 🙂

Pet of the Day: Desperado

One more big try for a little, tiny dog named Desperado. Please consider giving this senior dog a home. He is compact and does not take up much room, but I imagine he has a lot of love in that little heart of his. Please help us find him a home by sharing his photos.

“Poor old me! They named me Desperado, but I really don’t want to live life alone! I’m scared, but if you pick me up and love on me, all of the fright goes away.

“Do you have any idea how hard it is to be in a kennel with all of these big barking dogs? That’s what bothers me! Take me to your quiet home, love a senior, and you will be repaid 10-fold.” [Read more…]

Pet of the Day: Miss Kitty

Submitted

I am the sweetest, most magnificently marked Miss Kitty.

I went home with Miss Jeannie for a while, and she just loved on me and my new kittens. She nursed me and my babies, and then it was time for them to venture into the world on their own in their forever homes. It made me sad to see them go, but you know, I have a life of my own, and it was time for them to spread their wings and fly. Yep, they were all three adopted. So it’s my turn now.

Miss Kitty has been at the shelter and in foster care for so long now that I have lost track of her intake date. Please consider giving this sweet lady a home. She is with a foster now, but it is not a permanent home. The shelter opened again on Tuesday at 11 a.m. Please share for Miss Kitty. [Read more…]

Yes, I know that I am an incredibly handsome thing with gorgeous long hair…Miss Sandi and Miss Beverly, are you paying attention?

I am a little overwhelmed right now and get anxious around other animals, but I really just want out of here and need to go to my forever human soon. I promise that I am irresistible. Do I have your attention yet?

What’s it to you…if you are not here to adopt us, then move along and make room for our other audience…there is a standing-room-only line. My sibling is a little shy so is hiding behind me, playing peekaboo with you. We need a home and expect you to scoop us right up and love us real good. We need some playmates of our own. So we pick you and you and you!

Why pick just one when you can have two???
