THAMBILI 🐱🧡

Lost, confused and without his mother, Thambili walked into our lives a couple weeks ago. He had randomly turned up at a member of our team’s house at night time, a rural area with a lot of wildlife that is a danger to such a tiny and vulnerable kitten, like monitor lizards, snakes, and civet cats. How did he get here? And where is his mother?

Obviously, little Thambili couldn’t be left outside, and especially now that the monsoon season has arrived to this area of Sri Lanka, so Thambili has been living in foster - he is safe, he is learning, and he is full of character!

But at first, Thambili was scared of us humans, almost feral, he wouldn’t let us touch him - but over time, and with a lot of patience, we started to see some progression. Thanks to a friendly puppy (pictured is Baby Sam, whom Thambili is sat upon), that helped ‘break the ice’ and so our socialising began.

Now, you would never know that Thambili was a wild thing!! He has really come out of his shell, he struts around and under the bigger dogs he shares his foster home with, he runs after the adult cats too… a tiny thing, with a huge personality!

He’s recently learnt to jump and climb, lovs exploring and playing with the dogs who have helped to raise him, and he now also enjoys lots of snuggles!

Send us a message if you’d like to give little Thambili a home 🏡

Meet Pohutakawa – a gorgeous, playful, and loving girl! ✨

Pohutakawa arrived at Animal SOS Sri Lanka in May 2024 as an 8-week-old puppy, along with her brothers and sisters. From the very beginning, she has been full of energy, joy, and curiosity! This sweet girl is incredibly social, adores people and other dogs, and will make a perfect companion for an active family or anyone who loves a playful, affectionate pup. 🐾💛

She is an absolute showstopper. Her marbled coat of light brown and black shines beautifully in the sunlight, and her soft white chest adds a touch of elegance. Her perky ears, fluffy curled tail, and expressive face are framed by her breathtaking golden eyes, making her a truly unforgettable beauty. Medium-sized and athletic, she’s ready for adventures in the garden, long walks, or cozy cuddles on the couch.

Pohutakawa combines playfulness, loyalty, and affection into one incredible package. She’s ready to bring endless joy, laughter, and love into her forever home – a perfect addition to a family who will adore her as much as she will adore them.

MIKI 💕- adopted & adored

Back in October 2025, Miki’s story finally had a happy ending, and we couldn’t be more over the moon for this gentle giant

Up until that moment, Miki’s story was not a happy one. He had been a dumped owner dog, whom we had rescued here at Animal SOS. After recovery, we found him a loving home up in the remote tea plantations, along with 2 other dogs, but heartbreakingly, his adopter committed su***de in the family home, leaving the family and the dogs in a state of shock and depression. Miki them moved to another home, where he had settled as was doing well, but after his new adopters had to leave for a new job in Colombo, Miki was left under the care of the neighbours, who just didn’t understand his needs, and didn’t know how to care for such a dog. We went to check on him one day, and found him in a shell of who he was. Miki jumped in our tuktuk that day, and came back to the sanctuary with us.

In the time that followed, we had a lot of interest for Miki, people always see a German Shepherd and want one for the ‘status’, but we weren’t letting Miki go easily. He had found a wonderful home, but unfortunately it hadn’t worked out, and he was returned. We were so so sad for Miki, because we know he deserves the world. But after a short while, Miki got his chance, and now he is doing AMAZING and has a family who cherish him!

Now, Miki enjoys long walks and days at the beach - living his best life, and we couldn’t be happier for him. THIS IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT - and we know more of our dogs can find homes just like this one.

We know Miki is so grateful to have become a member of this awesome family! He is included, loved, and treated like a king! Our hearts are overflowing with joy to see him like this, these photos bring so much hope - we hope to inspire others that adopting a dog is so rewarding, and you are making the greatest impact by doing so ❤️

Bunch of cuties 🥰

10 days ago, this family of 8 tiny babies were dumped at our gate!

They are approx 6 weeks old - 4 boys and 4 girls

Our shelter is way over capacity, and a lot of our dogs who call our shelter home, are dumped puppies - it’s a sad reality of sanctuary life.

We are urgently looking for homes for all these pups, and our many dogs who deserve a home and family ❤️

Foster homes are also needed, so please reach out if interested (Ahangama / Midigama area)

Handsome boy REXY 🐾

Arrived in April 2025, a dumped puppy of just 2 months old, thrown over the wall like a piece of trash… unfortunately, this is a regular occurrence, and so many of the dogs living at our shelter are here with us because they were dumped as tiny puppies…

Rexy is not puppy sized now though, he is a big boy! Calm and placid, he is so cute when he sits, quietly observing the mayhem around him

He is so handsome, with the biggest smile! That gorgeous golden brown fur with splashes of white here and there and marble eyes to get lost in.

Rexy has grown out of that troublesome puppy stage, he is gentle, sweet and loving, and it would be amazing for him to find a home where he can call his own.

It is so important to meet the dogs in person before deciding on who to adopt, the connection must be there for both you and the dog, so send us a message if you’d like to book an adoption appointment to meet Rexy and our other animals

Meet APELA ❤️

Apela arrived to our shelter in June 2024, just a few months old. We took her in because no one wanted her.. [ PEOPLE THREATENED TO KILL HER !! ] The attitudes and behaviours of some humans leaves us disgusted! How anyone could even think about committing a horrible act on such a tiny and vulnerable soul is beyond us..

From the beginning of Apela’s story with us, she has always stayed calm and quiet. Observing from the side lines, her gentle character, a timid first impression - Apela is eagerly awaiting a place where she can feel comfortable and surrounded by love 🥰

Because of her peaceful personality, this perfect little girl often feels quite overwhelmed at our sanctuary, where we are home to over 2000+ dogs - she now lives in a compound at our lower site, which is a calmer space with around 10 other dogs for companionship, but it’s all a bit too much for sweet Apela. She needs a quiet home, and someone who can be patient with her whilst she transitions and adapts into a new environment, but we know for sure, she will thrive with a loving family who can give her everything she deserves! And a place she can truly call home, where her personality, which has been hidden away, can shine! ✨

ISNAHA 🐾

Isnaha and her sister, Thigasi, were dumped nearby our sanctuary in January 2022 - they needed us, so we took them in.

At just a few months old, this pair were so gentle and well-behaved, as they grew, they stayed the same, and have both blossomed into the most kind-hearted girls. We know we say it about them all, but these two are just so special ❤️

Isnaha has this beautiful golden brown fur coat, she’s a small build with a cute short tail and soulful eyes. She is just so wonderful, and when she sees someone, she is filled with joy and so eager for a moment to cuddle. We often find our volunteers sat in this area of the field, spending time with these sisters, as they are so connected with people and so happy to feel loved.

This pair have always stuck together like glue, they are always together, so it would be amazing if we could find them a home where they can stay with each other and share the same home. As they are now a bit more mature, they’ve passed that puppy phase, and would settle well in a place to call their own, with a family who love them as much as they love back 🏡

THIGASI 🐾

She arrived in January 2022, dumped as a small puppy with her sister, Isnaha. These 2 sisters were the sweetest girls from the beginning, and as they grew into gentle and kind ladies, their personalities stayed consistent; fun, loving, gentle, loyal - Thigasi and her sister, isnaha, are really the most adorable companions.

Thigasi is really gorgeous, the unique colours in her fur and her cute button nose with a touch of pink, makes her incredibly eyecatching. Her beautiful looks with her lovely character - she’s just PERFECT! ❤️

A social butterfly, who is great around other dogs, and adapts quickly to new situations - we believe Thigasi would absolutely THRIVE in a home environment, and any family would be so lucky to have her.

Her and her sister, isnaha, have been at our shelter for just over four years now, patiently waiting for someone to give them that loving home they so much deserve, but it just hasn’t happened yet - we believe that the right people will come along for these 2 sisters, so please help us to find them a forever home! 🏡

Meet Uhtred — our miracle warrior 🐾

⬅️ swipe for puppy Uhtred 🥰🐶

Uhtred arrived at our sanctuary in May 2023 as a critically ill puppy. At the time, we feared the worst — he may even have suffered a brain injury, and we weren’t sure he would survive. But Uhtred had other plans. 💛

With incredible strength and determination, he fought his way through the hardest days… and won. Today, he stands as a beautiful reminder of resilience, hope, and the power of never giving up. We couldn’t be prouder of how far he’s come.

Now fully blossomed, Uhtred is a sweet, strong, and affectionate young dog with the perfect mix of playful energy and calm companionship. He’s loyal, happy, and ready to be someone’s best friend — the kind of dog who will stick by your side through everything.

Honestly, this chap is truly special ❤️

He’s already beaten the odds. Now he just needs a family to call his own. 🏡

Could you be the one to give this walking miracle the love, comfort, and forever home he deserves?

💌 Send us a message to meet Uhtred or learn more about adoption!

Meet Atlas – cheeky, clever, and full of energy! ✨

Atlas arrived at Animal SOS Sri Lanka as a tiny pup with his disabled mum and three sisters. Now fully grown, this lively young dog is ready to find his forever home! 🐾💛

Atlas is playful, mischievous, and incredibly smart. He thrives on mental stimulation and would love games, puzzles, or training sessions that challenge his clever mind. While he has outgrown his naughtiest puppy days, he still needs a family who can give him guidance, consistency, and lots of love.

This cheeky chap would be happiest in an active home, enjoying runs, walks in the park, and plenty of interaction with his humans. His energy, intelligence, and playful personality make him an unforgettable companion who will bring endless joy and laughter to his family.
