Meet Rebel: The Tiny Terror with Extra Toes!
Introducing Rebel, the 5-month-old Siamese mix

Rebel’s not really into people yet. At all. He’s more of a “look, but don’t touch” kinda cat. But if you’re patient enough to win him over, you might just unlock the spicy love of your life.

So, if you’ve got the patience of a saint, a deep love for weird feet, and the ability to withstand a little side-eye from a cat who thinks he runs the world—Rebel just might be your guy. Adopt him today, and you’ll get the ultimate reward: a cat who’ll love you on his terms. It’s like having a relationship with a cat and an independent, untrusting supervillain all in one.

Warning: Rebel is still working on his trust issues, so be prepared to earn his love with time, treats, and maybe an occasional catnip bribe. But hey, it’ll be so worth it when he finally gives you that tiny, reluctant head boop of approval.

He has not tried to bite but he will hiss. 🐍
Adoption hours are Monday through Friday  10 AM to 4 PM if you have any questions please give us a call 910-875-4827

🐰💘 MEET GUS: THE CUDDLE-POWERED FURBALL YOU NEVER KNEW YOU NEEDED 💘

Are you emotionally stable enough to handle the overwhelming affection of a 3 pound fuzz nugget who thinks personal space is a myth?

Meet Gus—part rabbit, part velcro, all heart. This man is NOT here to play hard to get. Oh no. Gus wants to be with you. Near you. ON you. He would crawl into your skin if science allowed it.
🛋️ Sitting on the couch? Gus is there.
🚽 Going to the bathroom? Gus is absolutely there.
🧘‍♀️ Trying to meditate? Good luck, he's already sitting on your foot like a tiny judgmental monk.

This is a rabbit who doesn’t just want attention—he DEMANDS it. He’s the kind of emotionally available male we thought only existed in therapy and fiction.

Likes:
✅ Being petted 300 times per day
✅ Following humans around like a stalker, but cuter
✅ Giving you that look like, “You done yet? I require love.”

Dislikes:
❌ Being ignored for longer than 45 seconds (rude)
❌ When you walk past him without acknowledging his existence (rude)

Gus is ready to hop into your home and deeply into your personal life. If you’ve got space on your couch, snacks in your hand, and room in your heart for a clingy little snugglelord—congratulations, you just found your soulmate

Available NOW! Questions? Please call us 910-875-4827
Adoption hours Monday-Friday 10am-4pm

**Someone is already here waiting for Kevin to become available♥️♥️♥️

Meet Kevin: Our Bat-Wiener Surprise 🐾🦇
3 years old dachshund mix
Available 8/21 at 12:20pm

Are you looking for a dog that looks like he just accidentally opened your internet browser history?

Meet Kevin — a compact gentleman with the body of a dachshund, the eyes of a bat, and the soul of someone who just heard a suspicious noise in the other room. Every. Single. Minute.

Kevin is a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in... probably a blanket he’s scared of. We’re not saying he’s part bat, but he’s definitely ready to take flight if the vacuum gets too close. His permanently startled expression ensures you’ll never feel lonely—Kevin always looks like he’s seeing a ghost just behind you.

This wide-eyed wonder is small in size, huge in personality, and dramatic enough to have his own soap opera. He enjoys slow walks, dramatic pauses, and giving you side-eye like you just said something offensive about his mother.

Likes: snacks, safety, and staring into the abyss.
Dislikes: loud noises, existential dread, and cucumbers. Probably.

Adopt Kevin and never eat alone again—he’ll be watching. Always watching. Ps Kevin does great with other dogs ♥️

If you have any questions, please give us a call. 910-875-4827 and as always, please share.
