Meet Chase, Garfield’s equally food-loving brother who has twice the energy and a heart full of love! If you are looking for a loyal companion who wants to be by your side every second of the day, Chase is your boy.

About Chase
Personality: Extremely affectionate, medium-energy, and completely Velcro-attached to humans
Social Skills: Fantastic with other cats, especially his brother Garfield
Favorite Hobby: Demanding head scratches while screaming for breakfast

His Story
Chase arrived at the shelter with his brother, Garfield, and the two share a massive love for food. Just like his brother, Chase treats every mealtime like an absolute emergency. However, while Garfield likes to nap after eating, Chase prefers to digest his food while glued to your side.This boy thrives on constant attention and does not like to be left out of the action. He will follow you from room to room, supervise your chores, and vocalize exactly how much he loves you. He is a master purr-machine who needs a family ready to shower him with endless affection.

Ideal Home
Chase needs an active home where people are around often to give him the attention he craves. Because he is so social, he would do best in a home with another friendly cat.

While Garfield and Chase arrived together and share a mutual love for food, they do not have to be adopted as a pair. They love each other's company, but each brother has a big enough personality to thrive in separate homes. Whether you take home one or both, you are guaranteed a lifetime of love and empty food bowls!

He needs an owner who can manage his food schedule while giving him all the love in the world.

Meet Garfield, a sweet orange gentleman who truly lives up to his legendary name! If you have a bowl full of food and a heart full of love, you might just be his perfect match.

About Garfield
Personality: Laid-back, affectionate, and highly food-motivated
Social Skills: Excellent with other cats
Favorite Hobby: Convincing you he has never been fed in his entire life.

His Story
Just like his cartoon counterpart, this sweet boy is entirely ruled by his stomach. He loves to eat as much as you are willing to feed him, and he has mastered the art of the "starving kitty" stare. While he hasn't demanded lasagna just yet, he treats every mealtime like the main event of his day.

Garfield was brought into our care alongside his beloved brother. Because of this, he is incredibly social and gets along wonderfully with other feline friends. When he is not actively campaigning for snacks, Garfield is a professional cuddler. He loves to curl up next to his humans, purring loudly enough to shake the room.

Ideal Home
Garfield needs an owner who can resist his adorable begging to keep him healthy. He would thrive in a home with other cats, and would be especially thrilled to be adopted with his brother!

While Garfield and Chase arrived together and share a mutual love for food, they do not have to be adopted as a pair. They love each other's company, but each brother has a big enough personality to thrive in separate homes. Whether you take home one or both, you are guaranteed a lifetime of love and empty food bowls!

If you are looking for an affectionate, food-loving companion to brighten your home, Garfield is ready to move in.

Meet C**t – The Lovable Little Menace

If there were an award for finding trouble in the most creative ways possible, C**t would probably already have a trophy case full of them.

At just 1½ years old, C**t is an active, affectionate Shepherd mix who loves car rides, splashing in the water, and being part of whatever adventure his people are having. He’s the kind of dog who wants to be involved in everything—and if nothing is happening, he’ll happily create his own entertainment.

C**t’s biggest challenge is that he’s still an oversized puppy who hasn’t always had the attention and structure he needed. When bored or left alone for long periods, he may entertain himself by exploring the trash or chewing on household items. Like many young Shepherd mixes, he thrives when given exercise, enrichment, and quality time with his family.

Think of C**t as that clever kid who’s always hatching a new plan. Sometimes those plans are great. Sometimes those plans involve your favorite shoes. Either way, life is never boring with him around.

Despite his mischievous streak, C**t is incredibly loving and enjoys spending time with people. He gets along well with kids and other dogs, uses a doggy door, and can be both an inside and outside dog. He has no known history with cats.

C**t isn’t looking for a perfect family—he’s looking for a family willing to help him continue growing up. Give him the attention, activity, and guidance he craves, and you’ll gain a loyal sidekick who’s equal parts adventure buddy, comedian, and best friend.

Meet Diamond: The Greatest Treasure You'll Ever Discover

Attention all adventurers, explorers, and treasure hunters: the search is over.

After years of searching through hidden temples, decoding ancient maps, and navigating perilous couch cushions, we've uncovered a legendary treasure unlike any other. Her name is Diamond, and unlike most lost relics, she's more interested in snuggling with you than guarding secret chambers.

At 9 years old, Diamond has perfected the art of being both a world-class adventurer and a professional couch potato. She firmly believes that every expedition should end with a cozy nap and that every couch is best enjoyed with a human companion. In fact, despite her size, Diamond has declared herself a lap dog and sees absolutely no reason to reconsider that decision.

Diamond is incredibly sweet and affectionate, always ready to share her love with the people she meets. She's especially fond of spending quality time with her favorite humans and is happiest when she's curled up close by.

Unlike some treasures that come with b***y traps and dramatic alarms, Diamond is refreshingly quiet. She's not much of a barker and prefers to let her gentle personality do the talking.

Of course, every great explorer needs transportation. Diamond loves car rides and is always eager to hop in for the next adventure. Her favorite destination? The lake. Give this girl some water to splash in, and you've found her version of paradise.

Treasure Hunter's Field Notes:
💎 Age: 9 years old
🛋️ Legendary Couch Potato
❤️ Expert Snuggler and Certified Lap Dog
🚗 Loves Car Rides
🌊 Lake and Water Enthusiast
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Great with People and Kids
🔇 Quiet and Easygoing

Expedition Requirements:
✔️ Humans and kids welcome
❌ No cats
❌ No other dogs

Diamond would thrive as the sole treasure in your collection, where she can soak up all the love, attention, and couch space she deserves.

Many explorers spend a lifetime searching for hidden riches, only to discover that the greatest treasures aren't buried in ancient ruins—they're waiting in shelters, hoping for a family to call their own.

If you're ready to claim the find of a lifetime, Diamond is waiting to make your home her forever destination.

Meet Rip: Your Loyal Special Operations Partner

Mission Briefing:

Operator Name: Rip
Breed: Belgian Malinois
Age: 3
Status: Ready for Deployment to Forever Home
Specialty: Loyalty, Adventure, and Staying by Your Side

Every elite team needs that one operator who's always prepared for the next mission. The one who's watching your back, ready to move when you move, and happiest when working alongside their trusted partner. That's Rip.

Like any seasoned special operations expert, Rip doesn't hand out his trust immediately. He prefers to assess the situation, gather intelligence, and get to know his people before fully letting his guard down. But once you've earned his trust, you'll discover a sweet, affectionate companion who is dedicated to his person and wants to be right there for every adventure.

Rip can be wary of men at first, so he'll need patient introductions and time to build confidence. Once he knows you're part of his team, however, he's all in.

As a Belgian Malinois, Rip is an active, intelligent dog who thrives when he has a job to do. Whether it's hiking, training, exploring, or simply accompanying you through your daily operations, he's ready to deploy at a moment's notice. One of his favorite off-duty activities? Water missions. Rip absolutely loves playing in the water whenever the opportunity arises.

Rip is house trained, crate trained, and leash trained. He does have a tendency to pull on leash, so additional training will help refine his field skills. He also experiences some separation anxiety, which usually shows itself through pacing when left alone. He'll do best with a family committed to helping him feel secure and included.

Squad Compatibility Report:
✔️ Female dogs — Meet and greet suggested
⚠️ Male dogs — Meet and greet required
❌ Cats — Not recommended
❌ Livestock — Not recommended
❌ Small dogs — Not recommended

Rip's ideal home is with an active adopter who understands the needs of the Belgian Malinois breed and is looking for a devoted companion rather than just a pet. He wants to be your partner, your shadow, and your most reliable teammate.

Operator Profile:
• Loyal once trust is earned
• Sweet and affectionate
• Active and intelligent
• Loves water activities
• House, crate, and leash trained
• Always ready for the next adventure

If you're searching for a dedicated partner who's happiest by your side and ready to tackle life's missions together, Rip is standing by and awaiting his forever assignment.

Meet Ruby, a vibrant 1.5-year-old Pitbull mix with a heart of gold and energy to burn. This sweet girl is the ultimate friend to everyone she meets, though her previous home found her active lifestyle a bit too much to handle.

Ruby absolutely adores people and is wonderful with children of all ages. She also gets along great with other dogs, making her a fantastic candidate for playtime buddies. While she is a social butterfly with humans and pups, she has no known history with cats, so a feline-free home or a very careful introduction period would be best.

This smart pup already knows her basic commands and is fully crate trained. Because Ruby has a lot of youthful energy, she can get a bit destructive if left alone for too long outside of her kennel. Her crate is her safe space where she stays secure and content when her humans are away.

Ruby does have some itchy allergies that her team is currently investigating, so her new family will need to work with a vet to get to the bottom of them. She will thrive in an active, dedicated household that can provide her with plenty of exercise, medical care, and love.
