Sunday Special Spotlight! Meet Spencer!
She was just a fragile baby when she was rescued—barely more than skin and bones, her eyes sealed shut from a severe upper respiratory infection. It was a rough start, one that left a permanent mark: one of her eyes healed smaller than the other. But maybe that’s what makes her special—because despite everything, she fought to survive.
With weeks of antibiotics, gentle care, and love, Spencer pulled through. She’s now 2 yrs old, still carrying pieces of her past—she can be shy with new people, cautious in a way only trauma teaches. But give her just a little time, a little patience, and you’ll see her bloom. Once she trusts you, Spencer is pure sweetness, the kind of soul who gives quietly and loves deeply.
Spencer gets along with other sweet cats and gentle dogs.
Somewhere out there, there has to be someone meant just for her. Someone kind, gentle, and willing to give her that tiny bit of time she needs. Spencer will be so lucky to find you—and you’ll be just as lucky to find her.
Are you the one she’s been waiting for?

🌀 **Paws for a Moment: Hurricane Prep Starts Now!** 🌀

Attention Tampa bay-bees! Florida hurricane season officially blows into town on June 1st, and it’s time to ensure your emergency kits are fully stocked. But let's be honest—no disaster prep kit is truly complete without the ultimate furry companion to help you weather the storm! 🐾☔

Our current feline crew is ready to storm straight into your heart. If you're looking for a companion who can handle a little thunder and lighting, we have the perfect matches waiting to join your family shelter.

Our adoptable kitties are excellent at keeping morale high during a power outage. They are experts in advanced indoor thermal heating (lap warming), come equipped with age-appropriate vaccines, and are highly motivated to assist with your canned food inventory rotation. 🥫👀

Don't wait for a Category 5 realization—the best time to adopt is *before* the winds pick up. Come out, support St. Francis, and find a brave little fur-ricane companion to cuddle with through any forecast! 🌧️❤️

Here's the details:
📍 PetSmart Citrus Park (12835 Citrus Plaza Dr, Tampa, FL)
🗓️ Saturday: 12 PM - 4 PM
🗓️ Sunday: 12 PM - 3 PM

🌸🌺🌼 P.S. If you can't adopt, you can still help! We're always thank-full for reposts so share this post to help us spread the mews! It would be cat-astrophic if these sweet babies missed their chance at a home.

Remember - when you choose to adopt and don’t shop - you save a life!

Happy Thursday Night from The St Francis Dog Team! Tonight we would like you to meet the newest members of our St. Francis Dog Foster roster...Bass and her Sister Treble! You can tell the sisters apart as Bass has more white markings on her chest than her sister Treble.

They were found on their owners doorstep at 6 months old and now are 2 1/2 years old. But these two Lab mixed girls are in a unique situation and are still living in their owners home...but can no longer live safely together due to developing "Littermate Syndrome" and are currently being kept apart in their home which is a difficult scenario for both the Sisters and their Family.

Their owners love both girls very much and need to find one of the girls a new safe, happy Furever Home...but they cannot decide between them and reached out to St. Francis to assist and will keep the other sister as their own. They want the best life for them and have hired trainers and tried to get the girls to get along peacefully...but without success.

Both girls have very different personalities with Treble being more out going with a big personality and Bass being a little more sensitive and laid back. Both girls need to be the only dog in the household and only recommended that they be around older children.

St. Francis allows a one week trial stay in your home to assure that both you and your new pup are both happy with each other. To read more about each girl or to fill out the application to meet one of them...please go to our website at www.stfrancisrescue.org and click on available dogs.

Please also share this post to help Bass and Treble find their perfect new Furever Home!! ❤️🐾🐕

Kiki is an eight-month-old girl who has her very own little world going on! She is a sweet, loving, and observant kitty who likes to sit back and take everything in. When things get a little overwhelming, she might pause with wide, curious eyes, but she truly thrives on gentle encouragement to help her feel brave.

Once you give her some one-on-one time, Kiki completely comes to life! Her playful, frisky side shines as she happily rubs against you, purring and soaking up all the pets she can get. She is basically a big kitten who brings the softest cutesy vibes to the room, and she absolutely loves playing with her siblings (including her twin sister, Velour!) whenever things are calm and easygoing.

Kiki didn't always have a cozy life. She was found outside as a tiny, very sick kitten just trying to survive a harsh cold snap. Thankfully, she was rescued and given all the care she needed to grow up strong and healthy! Now, she gets along great with other cats and is perfectly safe and ready to find a true forever home. All she needs is someone to love her, and she promises to give all that love right back.

Come meet this sweet girl! Kiki is currently hanging out at our Petsmart adoption center located at 12835 Citrus Plaza Dr, Tampa.

Meet Crash, a handsome two-year-old gentleman who has been told he has a bit of a "serious demeanor." But please don't let that stoic face fool you - underneath it all, he is quite the cuddler when the mood strikes!

Crash is the perfect mix of independent and affectionate. He isn't a needy guy and is perfectly content enjoying a bit of peaceful solitude to stretch out and just be himself. However, he also truly appreciates good company and will never turn down a really good head scratch! He enjoys lazy afternoons mixed with the occasional playtime, making him a wonderfully low-maintenance and comforting presence to have around the house.

Because he thrives with a buddy, Crash must be adopted with a furry friend! He gets along great with both dogs and other cats, making him an easy, peaceful addition to a multi-pet household. He is looking for a calm environment without small children where he can relax and be his authentic self. If your home could use a quiet, comforting, and loyal companion, Crash is ready to meet you.

If you have any questions about Crash, contact Victoria at [email protected] or visit his page at https://stfrancisrescue.org/ #/rescue-ui/pet-details/cats/fosteredAnimals/26897

Goodnight world 🐾

My name is Buddy. Sometimes I act shy at adoption events, but really I’m a snuggly, bouncy, purry guy who loves other kitties and playing with my people.

I had a hard start to life, but now I’m ready for my Happy Ever After. Tonight I’ll be dreaming about my forever family. Maybe it’s you.

Say hello to Morey, a handsome and happy young guy with a wonderfully gentle and playful spirit! Whether you are relaxing or busy around the house, Morey loves being around his people and wants to be a part of whatever you are doing. Once he gets to know you, he is all about affection. He will happily rub against your hands and legs, purr up a storm, and even go completely floppy in your arms because he trusts you so much (just make sure to hold on tight, because he can be a little slippery!).

Morey didn't always have it easy. He was found struggling to survive outdoors during a harsh cold snap when he was very sick and weak. Thankfully, he was rescued and given all the love and care he needed to heal. Now, he is fully healthy and acting like the big kitten he truly is at heart! He especially loves chasing toy balls and will happily leap and pounce to show off his skills.

All this beautiful boy needs now is a real home and someone to love him, and he promises to love you right back. He gets along great with other cats and is just waiting for the chance to be part of a family.

Come meet your new best friend! Morey is currently hanging out at our Petsmart adoption center located at 12835 Citrus Plaza Dr, Tampa.

If you have any questions about Morey, contact Jennifer at [email protected] or visit his page at https://stfrancisrescue.org/ #/rescue-ui/pet-details/cats/adoptionCenterAnimals/29104
