🐾 Meet Franz — a sweet, loving, and oh-so-handsome 5-year-old boy ready for his fresh start! 💛

Franz and his brother Larry came to us from a less-than-ideal situation, feeling scared and timid. With time and patience, Franz has begun to change into a more confident pup who is eager to meet his forever family.

Franz and Larry share a special bond and would thrive together, but they can also be adopted separately. If adopted on his own, Franz would love to have another dog buddy to keep him company, since he’s used to being around furry friends.

With his gentle heart, loyal nature, and irresistible charm, Franz will make a wonderful companion. 💕 Could you be the one to give him the loving home he’s been waiting for?

📍 Apply now to meet this special boy and start the next chapter of his story!

Meet Rental, our handsome tuxedo gentleman with the most charming almost silent meow you’ve ever heard. 🐾 This sweet boy will greet you softly through his cage, as if politely inviting you to come say hello.

Before coming to us, Rental was living life on the streets until a kind person brought him to safety. He’s around 8 years old, a little shy and quiet at first, but once he trusts you, he melts for gentle pets, enjoys his canned food, and treasures his peaceful naps.

As a Super Senior, Rental’s adoption fee is just $25, but the love he’ll give is priceless. 💕

Come meet this dapper guy and see if he’s the missing piece to your family! 🖤🤍

Where Are They Wednesdays!

The first two cats are sisters Mavis and Maxine, formerly known as Kanga and Roo from the Winnie the Pooh litter of kittens. They just turned 1 today (August 10th)!! They are both the most happy and playful kitties and love to snuggle with their humans! The sister kittens were adopted by two sisters and the girls get together for play dates. 😻

The orange cat is Buddy (FKA RC) the blind cat. His family says he's the best cat ever!!!

Did you adopt a cat or dog from BAHS? We'd love to see pictures!🥰

I want Candy!🍭

At least, that’s what you should be saying – because I’m Candy, your new Meow Mayor, and I’m looking for a home! I was adopted from BAHS several years ago, but my human passed away and I’m back. I’m very sad about it, but still as sweet as my name!

Staff put me in the first room right by the front door, hoping I’d get some exercise, but I’m a grown lady at 10 years old and I know what I like – and that’s napping. You can find me curled up on the cat tower taking a good nap almost any time. Of course, I prefer the lower shelves. It’s less effort to get there, and closer to eye level for any kiddos walking in so they can see how stunning I am. Personally, I think next time the kiddos tell you they want candy, it’s fair to assume they’re talking about me.

Staff report, accurately, that I love everybody I meet, so I’m excited to prove that true when you stop by to adopt me – or one of our other adoptable dogs or cats, that’s ok too! 😻

Either way, we’ll see you soon!

🐾✨ Transformation Tuesday! ✨🐾
Logan and Lucas were just a few days old when they came to us. Tiny kittens like this are the hardest to save, they need around-the-clock care, with feedings every two hours!

Thanks to the dedication of three different foster families (we like to give breaks for vacations, etc.), just look at these handsome boys now! 😻

💛 Lucas – the spunky little adventurer
💛 Logan – a nonstop purr machine

Both are available for adoption right now (adoption link on each picture). While they don’t have to be adopted together, if you’re looking for a pair of cats who adore each other and are endlessly entertaining, adopting them together is double the love and double the fun! 🐾❤️

When he’s not relaxing, Mushu is all about running around outside, soaking up the sunshine, and enjoying playtime. 🌞 Whether you’re looking for a cuddle buddy or a backyard zoomie partner, Mushu is the perfect mix of chill and playful.

**UPDATE - Thanks to a generous donor, Both Gizmo and his buddy Milo are now free to adopt!

🐾 Meet Gizmo – Your New Best Friend! 🐾

At 12 years young, Gizmo is as sweet as they come! ❤️ Sadly, he and his buddy Milo were surrendered to the shelter when their family had a new baby. But this mellow gentleman is adjusting well and is ready to find his next forever home.

Gizmo loves curling up on his favorite cat tree, soaking up sunshine, and watching the world go by. 🌞 He’s the perfect low-maintenance companion for someone who appreciates a calm, loving presence in their life.

✨ As a super senior, Gizmo’s adoption fee is only $25! ✨
Let’s help this sweet boy spend his golden years where he belongs — in a cozy home with people who love him.

This handsome guy is full of playful energy, but once he gets his wiggles out, he’s all about being your loyal best friend. 💛 Kai is also super treat-motivated (which means he’s likely to be a quick study when it comes to learning new tricks!).

If you’re looking for a fun-loving companion who’s ready to fill your days with joy, come meet Kai today! We are open from noon - 4:00 pm.🐶💙
