Meet Piglet! šŸ·šŸ’–

As Winnie-the-Pooh once would have said between hunny breaks, ā€œSometimes the very smallest things take up the very biggest space in your heartā€ — and little miss Piglet is here to prove it!
At almost a year old, she’s still tiny enough to make even Piglet look big and brave. Don’t let her kitten-sized fluff fool you though — this girl has the sass of Tigger after three cups of coffee and the zoomies to match. She loves to play games, bounce around, and keep life interesting in true Hundred Acre Wood fashion.
Born to one of our feral mamas, Piglet took a little while to come out of her shell (much like Eeyore leaving the house on a Monday morning). But now she’s blossomed into a playful, energetic sweetheart who’s ready to find her very own cozy corner of the Hundred Acre Wood — preferably with a loving human and maybe a snack or two.
Piglet would do best in a home without small children. She may be okay with other cats, while dogs are still a bit of a mystery. 🐾

Meet Princess šŸ‘‘

Princess has been through more than her fair share, but she hasn’t let it dim her spirit. After being overbred and ultimately abandoned, she’s now on the road to a brighter future thanks to the care of dedicated rescuers who helped her heal and rediscover happiness. Today, she’s with us—her heart open and ready to love again. šŸ’•

This sweet ā€œpocket pittieā€ is as loyal as they come. Princess thrives on companionship and is happiest right by your side, whether you’re heading for some fresh air or settling in for a cozy night on the couch. Wherever you are, that’s exactly where she wants to be.

Princess would do best in a calm, adult-only home where she can be the center of attention—no other pets, just her and her people. She’s ready for a forever home where she’ll be cherished, spoiled, and loved the way she truly deserves. ā¤ļø

Meet Keeley šŸ’›

If this sweet little black cat happens to cross your path, it might just be meant to be. Keeley is a beautiful, playful girl who’s patiently waiting for a loving home to call her own. At just a year and a half old, she may be a little shy when you first meet her—but give her a little time, and she’ll melt your heart. Once she feels safe, Keeley blossoms into the most affectionate companion, happily soaking up pets and inviting you to play.

She would thrive in a calm, low-to-moderate activity home where she can relax and feel at ease. Keeley isn’t one for the hustle and bustle—she’s looking for a peaceful place, and someone special to share it with.

Could that someone be you? If so, please fill out an application at www.thesimonfoundation.org!

Meet Lyka! She wakes up every day and chooses chaos—the fun, husky-flavored kind. Goofy, energetic, and always ready for her next adventure, Lyka firmly believes that ā€œoutsideā€ is a personality trait, not just a location. Couch potato? Never heard of her. If something is happening, she must investigate immediately… preferably at full speed.

At around 2 years old and 40 pounds, Lyka is your classic husky: smart, curious, and powered by equal parts zoomies and mischief. She’s got a high prey drive, so small animals are a no-go in her world. As for other dogs, she’s still forming opinions—very thoughtful of her.

Lyka would thrive in an active, adult-only home that can keep up with her ā€œlet’s go do something right nowā€ approach to life. If you’ve been looking for a built-in adventure buddy with a big personality and zero interest in sitting still, Lyka is ready to clock in.

If you're interested in adopting Lyka, please fill out an application at www.thesimonfoundation.org!

Meet Miss Junie B. Jones — tiny queen, full-time personality, part-time chaos coordinator. True to her iconic name, Junie is spunky, loud, stubborn, and 100% committed to being exactly who she is… whether you’re ready or not. But if you earn a coveted spot in her inner circle, you’ll discover she’s also a world-class snuggler with a serious soft side.

When Junie first arrived from a local animal control, she was more ā€œhide under the bed and pretend to be invisibleā€ than ā€œlife of the party.ā€ With some patience, a quiet space, and a few VIP humans, she slowly realized the world wasn’t so scary. And wow—once she clocked that, out came the goofball. We’re talking full personality unlock.

Junie is, at her core, a food enthusiast. A connoisseur. A treat critic, if you will. Want to win her over? Snacks. Want to become her best friend? Better snacks. She also lives for squeaky toys and long walks where she can strut her stuff like the small-but-mighty superstar she is.

In Junie’s world, she is the main character—and frankly, she prefers it that way. She’s not into sharing her humans, so she’s looking for a home where she can be your one and only. (Divas have standards.). At around 6 years old and under 10 pounds, she’s the perfect compact companion. While she’s made great progress, Junie still takes a minute to warm up to new people—relatable, honestly—so her future human should be willing to visit her a few times to build that all-important friendship before heading home together.

In summary: tiny dog, big opinions, even bigger heart.

This beautiful lady is Gemma! At 10 years old, this girl has a heart that feels forever young. She has a playful energy and bright spirit of a puppy. She would be an incredible companion for someone who enjoys staying active—whether it’s a run, a hike, or simply exploring the outdoors together. And after a day of adventure, Gemma is happiest curled up beside you, soaking in every moment of quiet, cozy companionship. She’s deeply affectionate and loves nothing more than being close to her people. Gemma is looking for a home as the only pet, where she can be the center of attention. She would do best with experienced adults or families with older teens who understand the needs of a high-energy dog.

Gemma was dropped off for boarding here a long time ago and her owner never came back for her. She is beyond deserving and ready for a second chance! She is searching for someone who will embrace her vibrant spirit and give her the love and stability she deserves. In return, she’ll fill your days with joy, loyalty, and endless affection!

Meet Callie—a truly special girl who brings joy wherever she goes. Her bright spirit and loving nature make her the kind of companion who makes every day feel a little lighter. After her previous owner faced difficult circumstances and had to make the heartbreaking decision to let her go, Callie has been patiently waiting for a fresh start with a new family to call her own. She is 5 years old, about 50 pounds, and an Australian Cattle Dog/Shepherd mix. Callie has a heart full of love and a zest for life—she’s smart, athletic, and happiest when she’s out exploring the world by your side. Whether it’s a hike, a walk, or a backyard adventure, she’s always ready to share the moment with you.

Callie is a devoted companion who will thrive with an active person or family ready to include her in their daily lives. She prefers to meet potential dog siblings first to ensure a good match and would do best in a cat-free home. With the right fit, Callie will reward her new family with unwavering love and affection!

Meet Jenga! Mom of our Gamer Litter!

Life with Jenga is full of fun! She has a playful spirit that will keep you smiling, but she also has a gentle way of letting you know when it’s time to slow down and relax. Her story began on the streets of Waterbury, where she showed incredible strength and resilience. Just one week after being rescued, she welcomed her babies into the world and proved to be a devoted, loving mom every step of the way. She had 8 kittens and took wonderful care of them all, even though she was very young, practically just a baby herself. Now that her kittens are moving on with their own journeys, it’s Jenga’s turn to find the happy ending she deserves. She’s ready for a fresh start with a family who will cherish her, play with her, and give her the safe, loving home she’s been waiting for.

Could you be the one to give Jenga her second chance?
