✨ SUCCESS STORY SUNDAY ✨

Meet Danica/Runa

Danica’s journey started on January 8th when she was picked up by shelter staff with an uncertain future ahead of her. ❤️

On January 22nd, she was transferred to Best Friends Animal Society, where her life quickly changed for the better. Shortly after intake at the rescue, Danica was adopted into a loving forever home — and with her new beginning came a new name: Runa. 🐾🏡

Now known as Runa, this sweet girl has traded shelter life for comfort, love, and a family all her own. What once started as an uncertain chapter became the happy ending we all hope for every animal that comes through our doors.

Stories like Runa’s are only possible because of rescue partnerships, adopters, supporters, volunteers, and everyone who believes in second chances.

Happy tails, Runa! We are so thankful you found the life you always deserved. ✨🐶

🐾 Our cats need your help. 🐾

One of the simplest comforts we can provide our shelter cats is a clean, safe place to use the bathroom — but right now, our cat litter supply is running low.

Every scoop, every fresh litter box, and every clean kennel helps reduce stress and gives our cats a little more comfort while they wait for families of their own. From playful kittens to shy seniors, they all depend on us… and we depend on the kindness of our community.

We are gratefully accepting donations of cat litter of any kind. No donation is too small, and every bag truly makes a difference.

If you’d like to help make our cats’ days a little cleaner, cozier, and brighter, we would be so thankful for your support. ❤️🐱

Meet Carl! 🐾🐶

Looking for a dog with personality, presence, and plenty to say? Meet Carl, a handsome Shepherd mix who is guaranteed to keep life interesting!

Carl is about 1½ years old and is an outgoing, social boy who loves being involved in everything around him. When it’s playtime, he gets especially expressive — he’s extremely talkative when playing, happily narrating every zoomie, toy toss, and wrestling match like he’s giving live commentary.

He also gets along well with both dogs and cats, making him a great fit for a variety of homes where he can have friends to hang out with.

Carl is already set up for a smooth transition into his forever home:
✔️ Neutered
✔️ Rabies vaccinated
✔️ Microchipped
✔️ Dog friendly
✔️ Cat friendly
✔️ Young, social, and full of personality

Carl is ready for a family who will appreciate his big voice, big heart, and playful energy. Could he be your new best friend? ❤️🏡
