Dave The Cat! This guy (check out the inset pic) has the BIGGEST personality! He is goofy and entertaining on a daily basis! Equally loving and sweet, Dave The Cat has endeared himself to our staff but when his new mom and dad met him, there was a whole new level of love there! They just knew this sweet guy is the perfect kitty bother for their beloved Figaro and will make their home complete! We believe they are in for a bundle of laughs and a lifetime of love with this cat that has a personality too big for just one name! Farewell Dave The Cat! 🐈❤️😻

Handsome brothers, Alex & Steve get to spend forever TOGETHER! This amazing family (we met 3 generations on adoption day!) came in to adopt a kitty but left with TWO! They just knew that the brothers are perfect together and perfect for them! We know these boys are going to have lives full of happiness and love! Thank you for adopting × 2!!! 😻❤️😻

Check this out!!! Jacob came to us as an adorable little guy of just 7 weeks old. He has been at the shelter for over 2 YEARS now! In this time, he has kept his affectionate and loving personality but was passed over again and again by adopters. Shelter employee, Katelyn, just knew this guy deserved a true forever home! Her husband, Donovan, took no convincing-he met Jacob and it was sealed! Joining fur brother, Tazzy, Jacob is now part of this PUUURRRFECT family! Thank you for adopting not one, but TWO, beautiful black kitties! 🐈‍⬛❤️🐈‍⬛

We just can not express our gratitude! To everyone out there that made Tails of Hope the HUGE success that it was-we THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!

Our biggest thank you goes to Chairperson, Melissa Banning and Planning Committee members; Holly Bzovi, Lindsay Cannon, Ursula Marshalek, Jenni O'Donnell, Angie Ohlemacher and Meggin Weimerskirch! These dynamic ladies knocked it WAAAYYY out of the park! Every last detail was perfection and the end result was more than we ever imagined or hoped for!

Operating as a non-profit with no funding whatsoever is challenging at best but with the funds from this event, we have some much needed breathing room!

Again, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank each and every one of you that supported Tails of Hope 2025!

Maverick arrived needing some veterinary care and TLC. Fremont Animal Hospital did surgery on both eyes to fix his cherry eye, they also opened up his nasal passages and neutered the handsome 2 year old! Maverick was an honored guest at the Tails of Hope event last weekend where his forever mom & dad found him! He left the shelter today and is going to have a wonderful life with this compassionate couple! We couldn't be happier for them all as this new chapter begins for "The MAV!" Thank you for adopting this special guy! ❤️🐶❤️
