Lonely Hearts Club: Max
Sponsored by Arbor Legacy Lawyers

Animals that have been in shelter care for over 45 days are considered a member of our Lonely Hearts Club. Max has been waiting for 135 days for a forever family to find him 😞

Max is a shy fella who has such a wonderful, goofy personality underneath that timid exterior. He is just a little over a year old and came to HES very shut down and unsure of the world. Through time and patience, he's been loosening up and coming to see that humans aren't so scary after all. But get him around other dogs, and his true personality shines through!

Max loves other dogs and is such a fun-loving, joyful puppy when he's with his friends. He needs a home with at least 1 other canine companion to provide him the security and comfort he needs to get out of his shell, as well as a playmate to help burn off some of that puppy energy!

He needs a patient adopter who will give him the time he needs to decompress and come around on his own time, but as long as he has a doggie friend, he's good as gold! If he pulls at your heartstrings and you feel like you have the right home for this handsome young guy, come meet him at HES!

Happy Caturday! This is Fred, a 2-year-old kitty just now learning about the big wide world. He used to live outside and wasn't super sure about humans at first, but after he moved in with his foster mom at the beginning of April, he's become so confident that he's ready for his forever home!

Fred is charming, gentle, quiet, shy, well behaved, litter box trained, chill, and oh so handsome. He would prefer a home where he can nap, explore, and have some time to settle in and bond with his new human. Fred has been living with his brother and they enjoy each other's company, so he'd probably like other cat friends. (He's never met a dog.) Fred is currently living with a 7 year old kiddo, and doesn't seem to mind, as long as he can retreat to his high up perch if he feel like he needs to.

Fred's ideal adopter would be someone looking for a gentle companion that won't mind that he's not a super cuddly cat, but rather enjoys quiet familiarity and comfort. If you think you have a nice home for Fred, come meet him at HES today!

Atilla the Bun is ready to find a forever home, but has been having a blast in foster care.

"Our adorable foster Bun is not just people friendly, she’s kitty friendly too 😻 She loves head rubs and light massages, and will even flop onto her side so you don’t miss a spot 💕 Her bunny binkies and zoomies are absolutely the best! We’ve loved watching her curiosity shine and somehow she’s managed to get all of us completely wrapped around her cute little paws 🐰"
