We love updates! Indie was adopted 7 weeks ago by an incredible couple. Indie spent almost 3 years at WCHS waiting for the right people to come along. And they sure did!

WCHS staff went out to visit with her today to check in and see how she is doing on her adjustment into this incredible home. Being a long time shelter animal can take its toll.

Indie is loving life! She has the love and admiration of her adopters and their family. She is playing fetch, going on car rides and sleeping in bed with her new family.

We are thrilled and wanted to share that no matter how long it takes, WCHS strives to find the right match for each of our animals up for adoption. For some it can be only a matter of days or weeks. Some, like Indie, years. We are committed to them all!

Enjoy the update and pictures! We sure did!!

Minnie has been relaxing and loving life in her new home! This sweet girl found a wonderful family to join after her parents passed away earlier this year. We are so glad she was able to quickly move back into a home. Her foster family stopped by this weekend to officially adopt her!!She recently celebrated her 12th birthday too!

Happy Tails Minnie and thank you for adopting!!

We’d like to introduce some new faces at WCHS! These cats and kittens came to us in need of medical care and socialization, and are steadily making progress.

Bios are attached to each cat/kitten’s photo. Please understand that due to their past, they may need more time and patience to adjust and decompress to a normal home environment. The kittens would do best in homes without young children.
