Morgan and Wallen were found as strays, running Up Down the streets around More Than My Hometown. With no ID or tags, they're lucky a good Samaritan decided to play Chasin' You before they became Somebody's Problem and were lost for 7 Summers or more.

These Outlaws had no ID and we had no leads on their family. They have been neutered and are now ready for adoption and deserve to be Livin' The Dream.

If you're interested in one of these cuties, send in an application before Quittin' Time!

Morgan Wallen did not return our request to use his song titles in this write up, but we think he'd approve!

Horace the bunny

Sunday Bun-day!

Meet Horace! Horace is an absolutely adorable little young adult lionhead. His life before the shelter was unknown but we do know he came to us very fearful with horribly overgrown teeth. He has been in foster care for 2 months and with some dental care and TLC, he has made tremendous strides in trusting people. He takes food and treats from his foster family and enjoys hanging out with humans present, but is still working on the courage to be touched. Just recently he has accepted gentle head touches and is now approaching his foster family on his own to boop their feet. Horace has impeccable litter box habits. He is truly a sweet bun and is quite curious and playful - he absolutely loves to throw his stacking cups!!

Horace must be adopted into an indoor-only, bunny-savvy home. His ideal family would be full of love and patience, willing to let him take his time to warm up, with a brave spayed female bunny companion that can teach him how good it can be to have humans spoil him! Horace is not suited to a house with small children or as a first-time bunny. He may also require more frequent care for his teeth.

Happy Saturday, happy tail!

"I adopted Callie, formerly Pippi, almost two years ago when she was just a tiny kitten. Our family adores her, especially my 3 year old son whom she tolerates very well. Callie is feisty, affectionate and thinks she's queen of the house, which truthfully she is. Thank you for allowing us to have her and love her, she completes our family!"

Vinnie was found as a stray, so skinny his ribs and backbone were protruding. Our veterinarian labeled him with a body score of 1.5 which is very underweight and dangerous. Vinnie is lucky he was picked up by a good Samaritan, we're not sure how much longer we would have survived on his own.

These photos don't tell the whole story, and we don't know why Vinnie is so underweight and malnourished, but he is safe now and learning what a full belly and warm bed feel like!

You can donate to Vinnie's care, and the care of all our homeless pets, on our website: https://www.everettwa.gov/170/Donate

Happy Saturday, happy tail!

"My husband and I adopted Riley in August 2020 and he loves his new home in the forest. In September 2021, we welcomed his little sister and while it took him some time to get used to sharing momma, he is a wonderful big brother! Riley’s favorite things are going for walks in the forest, getting belly rubs, and snoozing in front of the fireplace. He also loves helping in the kitchen by taste-testing bits of carrot or broccoli as I’m cooking. We are so lucky to have Riley as a part of our family! Here are a handful of pictures in case you’d like to use any for a post on social media or just so that you can see what a happy boy he is!"

Sweet senior Oliver was found as a stray in very rough shape. His back right foot and leg was severely swollen and covered in dying tissue. Our veterinarian determined his foot and leg could not be saved and ultimately had to amputate. We don't know what caused Oliver's injury, but we do know he had been suffering for quite some time for it to get to this point. Oliver also had other scratches and wounds on his body that required treatment as well dental work neuter surgery.

This senior kitty has been through a lot and is now recovering in a foster home. We hope to see him up and about soon!

ADOPTED!

Sunday Bun-day!

Meet Daisy! Daisy is a lovely purebred French Lop that is looking for a very special home. We think she would do very well with a brave bunny friend as she recently lost her companion and appears sad to be an only bunny. She is shy and needs a little time to shine, but does enjoy being brushed and petted. Her ideal home would be calm and patient, allowing her to feel safe, loved, and part of a family once again. Daisy is working on litter box training and has become accustomed to the bunny-savvy cats in her foster home.

Axle the puppy is still looking for his forever home!

Besides being cute as a button, Axle is active, smart and affectionate! This cutie is crate and potty trained and even rings a bell when he wants to go out.

He loves to meet new people and is super food motivated which means he learns new commands quickly. Axle is looking for an active home dedicated to helping him learn.

Axle was diagnosed with distemper as a young puppy but has since been cleared and is no longer contagious. Before applying, please do a little research about the possible long-term effects of distemper in dogs.

We are running low on dog food!

We are in need of adult and senior dry dog food for large and small breeds. Our pups prefer chicken, beef or lamb and like meat to be listed as the first ingredient with no food dyes. Their favorite brands are Kirkland Signature, Blue Buffalo and Nutro!

If you'd like to help feed our homeless pets, you can drop unopened, unexpired food on our covered front porch OR use our Amazon wish list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3USIQYCTZY662/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex

Thank you!
