🐾 June is National Cat Adoption Month 🐾

There’s never been a better time to find your new best friend. We have so many wonderful cats waiting for loving homes: calm lap cats, shy sweethearts, and confident companions who are ready to settle right in.

Every cat has their own personality, story, and charm. Whether you’re looking for a couch cuddler, a window-watcher, or a curious explorer, we likely have the perfect match for you.

💛 Why adopt?
Adoption saves lives, opens space for other animals in need, and gives a deserving cat a second chance at happiness.

🏡 Stop by and meet your future feline family member. Your new best friend might be just one purr away.

🐱 Let’s make this month full of second chances and happy endings!

We hope everyone had an amazing Father’s Day! 💕👨🐶🐾

Some of you are biological dads, and some of you just ended up as the “dad” by default, keeping an eye on littermates, cage mates, or whoever decided you were the responsible one in the room. Either way, you all show that care doesn’t need an explanation. It just happens.

So here’s to the animal dads: the snack inspectors who never miss a delivery, the nap supervisors who take their job very seriously, the accidental chaos coordinators who somehow didn’t start it but are definitely involved, and the soft-hearted souls behind it all.

Happy Father’s Day, you’re doing great. Now please accept this imaginary treat!

Meet Lorelai, one of the sweetest mama cats we’ve ever had the pleasure of caring for. 😻🙌💕

Lorelai came to us pregnant, scared, and in need of a safe place to land. From the very beginning, she showed us just how gentle, loving, and resilient she is. She has been an incredible mama to her kittens and an absolute joy to everyone who’s met her.

Now that her babies are ready to spread their wings, it’s Lorelai’s turn to be cared for and cherished. She deserves a home filled with love, comfort, and all the affection she so freely gave to her little ones.

Could Lorelai be the perfect addition to your family?

Lorelai's adoption fee is $150, which includes her spay, microchip, Rabies vaccine, 2 FVRCP vaccines, FIV/FeLV combo test (Lorelai is negative!) and up to date on flea/tick preventative.

If you are interested in adopting Lorelai, you may fill out an application at www.tlchs.org or you are welcome to make a Match Making appointment to come out and meet her first. We are open Tuesday – Sunday 1:00pm to 4:00pm.

🌳🧺 Happy International Picnic Day! 🐾

A picnic is even sweeter when shared with a furry friend. Whether it's a walk in the park, a blanket under the trees, or a simple afternoon outdoors, pets make every moment more special.

Today, we're celebrating the companionship, love, and joy that animals bring to our lives. Many of the pets in our care are still waiting for someone to share these moments with, a family to call their own and adventures to enjoy together.

Could your next picnic include a new best friend? ❤️

Set up an appointment to meet our adoptable pets and help them find the loving homes they deserve.

Meet Renny! 💕🐶🐾

Renny is one of the sweetest pups we’ve welcomed in a long time. While we don’t know much about his past, it’s clear that he has known love before, and he absolutely thrives on it. Affectionate, gentle, and eager to connect, Renny’s biggest wish is to find a person or family to call his very own.

This happy boy also loves toys, especially when there’s a game of chase involved! Of course, toys are much more fun with people to play with, which is where you come in.

Spend just ten minutes with Renny, and chances are you’ll be completely smitten. If you have kids, even better, because Renny would be thrilled to have some enthusiastic playmates and has plenty of love to share.

Come meet Renny and see for yourself. We have a feeling you’ll fall in love.

Renny’s adoption fee is $300. This includes his neuter, microchip, Rabies vaccine, DAPP vaccines, Bordetella vaccine, heartworm test (if over 9 months old), and he is up to date on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.

If you are interested in adopting Renny, you may fill out an application at www. tlchs.org or you are welcome to make a Match Making appointment to come out and meet him first. We are open Tuesday – Sunday 1:00pm to 4:00pm.

Marigold has found her forever home!!! 💕🐶🐾

We swear Marigold got cuter every single day, and we're so thrilled that the perfect family found her so quickly. They brought their dog to meet her, and the connection was instant!

The meet-and-greet went wonderfully, and before long, Marigold was on her way to the loving home she deserves.

We already miss you, Mari, but nothing makes us happier than seeing our dogs start their next chapter with families who adore them. Wishing you a lifetime of love, adventures, belly rubs, and happiness!

Happy Friday! 💕🙌🐾

If anyone believed Marlee could leave TLC for an excursion without a full photo shoot documenting every moment, you clearly haven't met Elizabeth.

We all love Marlee dearly but she may have us all beat.

We hope these happy faces brighten your day and give you something cheerful to think about whenever you need it.

Meet Jada! 💕🐶🐾

Jada is the kind of dog who makes an impression the moment you meet her. Sweet, gentle, and incredibly affectionate, she’s looking for what she’s always wanted most: a best friend to call her own.

After spending much of the last few years confined to a crate for long stretches, Jada is thriving now that she has space to stretch her legs, soak up the sunshine, and enjoy the attention she deserves. Her caregivers and volunteer dog walkers adore her for her calm, easygoing nature and wonderfully loving personality.

One of Jada’s favorite things in the world is going for walks. You can see how much it means to her every time someone clips on her leash and heads out the door. She greets every kindness with gratitude, affection, and unwavering loyalty.

Jada has so much love to give, and she’s ready to share it with a family of her own. If you’re looking for a devoted companion, a walking buddy, and a true best friend, Jada may be the perfect match.

Jada’s adoption fee is $200, and includes her spay, microchip, Rabies vaccine, DAPP vaccines, Bordetella vaccine, heartworm test (if over 9 months old), and up-to-date flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.

If you’d like to make Jada a part of your family, click the link below to fill out an adoption application — or schedule a Match Making appointment to come meet her in person! We’re open Tuesday–Sunday, 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM
