Pet Paw-traits have returned! 🎨🐾

Today is the day, our Pet Pawtrait fundraiser is now OPEN and running all June long!

Here's how it works: fill out the form, where you can submit your $20 donation and your favorite photo of your pet(s), then one of our volunteers will transform them into a one-of-a-kind surprise portrait delivered to you by the end of July: https://form.jotform.com/251315612766153

After being with us since last summer, our sweet Misty is finally living her best life with her new forever family!

She's already claimed her morning bird watching spot, mastered the art of hiding under the covers at bedtime, and is warming up to her new feline siblings one treat at a time.🐱

Misty was with us for a long time, and her perfect match was worth every bit of the wait. Thank you to everyone who shared her story and you can read even more Happy Tails stories like Misty's over on our website!

This Caturday we're shining a light on three of our longest-staying foster cats. Let's find them their forever homes!💛

Topper 🎩 This gorgeous 9-year-old tuxedo lady is ready to sweep you off your feet! She's calm and observant, but once comfortable she'll be greeting you at the door and cozying up in your lap.

Nati 🤍 A little shy at first but give this sweet 10-year-old gal some patience and she'll blossom into the ultimate cuddle bug!

Irish 🍀 Cool, calm, and the perfect low-maintenance roommate! This 6-year-old calico loves toys, other cats, and a good couch cuddle session.

These three deserve the world. Could one of them be your perfect match? Send a message to [email protected] to set up a meet and greet with these sweethearts!

We have great news! Miss Lady's surgery was a success and she is recovering beautifully! 🐾💛

She's back to being her chatty, cuddly self, curled up with her foster family and taking her meds like a champ.🐱 This girl is so ready for her forever home, and we are so close to getting her there!

We're still working to cover the $1,350 cost of her care, and every gift makes a difference, for Miss Lady and for the next animal who needs us to show up for them through our Life Saver Fund.

If you've been following her journey, now is a great time to donate and help her cross the finish line! You can donate directly through this post or the link on our website (and we also take Venmo donations!)
