Meet Spencer and Bogart, two adorable kittens who were surrendered to EASEL. After spending time in a loving foster home, these sweet boys are now adoption ready and hoping to find their forever home together! 🏡💕

Both boys are little lovebugs who rush to the front of their cage to greet visitors with the LOUDEST purrs!

🐾 Bogart is our affectionate little sweetheart who loves neck rubs, flips over for belly rubs, and stretches his paws up onto your chest for some extra love. ❤️

🐾 Spencer is our energetic little entertainer! This playful boy is always ready for action and even loves to help with household chores. Just grab a duster or mop, and he’ll happily swipe along! 😂

These two are very bonded, and nothing would make us happier than seeing them adopted together. Two best friends, twice the entertainment, and a lifetime of love! 🥰

Today, we have another very special reason to celebrate! 🥹❤️

Nine months ago, a Good Samaritan heard a tiny kitten crying outside and brought her to EASEL. That frightened little kitten was Chloe, and little did she know how much her life was about to change.

Initially destined to be a barn cat, Chloe was given a chance when one of our dedicated socializers took her home to work with her. She wasn’t a cuddler and didn’t like being picked up, but she learned to enjoy gentle pets and rewarded you with the most beautiful purr. ❤️

When Chloe returned to the shelter, she was still a scared little girl. While she had made progress, she wasn’t the affectionate lap cat most adopters were looking for. Days turned into weeks, and weeks into months. Chloe continued to wait.

But sometimes the most beautiful happy endings happen when someone sees what others don’t. 💕

One of our amazing staff members saw beyond Chloe’s fear and fell in love with the sweet little soul underneath. She knew Chloe deserved more than life in a cage. She deserved patience, love, and a home to call her own.

And today, after 281 long days, Chloe finally left Easel as an ADOPTED cat! 🎉❤️

Jannet, thank you for being Chloe’s guardian angel, for believing in her, and for giving her the chance she waited so long for. All of us at EASEL are beyond grateful, and we know Chloe will have a wonderful life with you.

Happy freedom day, sweet Chloe! Your 281-day wait is finally over. You are HOME! 🏡❤️🐾

After 1,027 days, our special girl Mila has FINALLY found her forever home! ❤️🐾

Mila came to us alongside two other dogs from a cruelty case, emaciated and neglected. Despite everything she had endured, this sweet girl’s bubbly personality continued to shine through.

As the days turned into months and the months into years, our girl remained at the shelter. Life in a kennel environment was undoubtedly stressful, but with a dedicated team of human advocates behind her, she persevered.

Event after event, this beautiful girl put herself out there, hoping someone would finally see just how special she was. But the interest never came.

Until one day, someone walked through our doors with an open mind and an even bigger heart. After several meet and greets, OUR GIRL HAS LEFT THE BUILDING! 🎉❤️

To everyone who walked her, loved her, advocated for her, and never gave up on her, THANK YOU. You all played a part in getting this deserving girl to this moment.

Sweet girl, we will miss you more than you know, but we are SO incredibly happy that you’re finally HOME. You were worth every single day of the wait.

Happy life, Mila! ❤️🐾
