June is National Foster a Pet Month! 🐾❤️

These photos feature some of the incredible animals who have been part of our foster program, and we're happy to share that they have all found their forever homes! Foster parents play an essential role in an animal's journey to adoption. Being in a loving home environment helps pets build confidence, learn household routines, develop social skills, and become more comfortable around people. The love, attention, and stability they receive in foster care often help them grow, heal, and thrive much faster than they would in a shelter setting. Every day spent in a foster home helps set them up for success and increases their chances of finding the perfect family!!

Have you ever thought about fostering? Now is the perfect time to get involved! KAAS provides all supplies, medical care, support, and training, you provide the love and a temporary home. We'll be with you every step of the way.
By opening your home for a short time, you can truly change a life and help create more happy endings. ❤️

Too Cute Tuesday! Meet Deacon!

Hi there… I’m Deacon!! If you’re looking for a best friend who will love you with his whole heart, I think we might be meant to meet. I’ve been told I’m quite the handsome guy (I try not to let it go to my head), but what really makes me special is my personality. I’m gentle, affectionate, and just so happy to be around my people. I’m the kind of dog who will stick by your side through it all, whether we’re going on an adventure or just relaxing at home. I love soaking up attention, giving out all the love I have, and making people smile. Honestly, I just want to be near you… that’s where I’m happiest. I’ve got a heart as big as my smile, and I’m ready to share it with a family of my own. If you’re interested in me, please stop into KAAS!

It is just another “Meow-nic” Monday! This “Meow-nic” Monday features adoptable Bo**er! He got his name from his adorable little black nose, and once you see it, you’ll understand why it’s so unforgettable😉 Bo**er is a sweet guy who can be a little shy when meeting new people, but during his stay with us, he has really started to blossom! He’s becoming less shy every day and is showing more and more of his affectionate personality. Once Bo**er warms up, he’s all purrs and snuggles. He is an incredibly sweet boy who just needs a calm home, a little patience, and someone willing to let him continue building his confidence at his own pace. Watching him come out of his shell has been so special, and he’s more than ready to find a family to call his own! If you are interested in Bo**er, please stop into KAAS!
