Meet Teacup! β˜•πŸΎ

Teacup came to us as a stray with her three kittens, and sadly, they were all covered in filth when they arrived. Despite everything she had been through, Teacup was an incredible momma and took wonderful care of her babies. But her days of motherhood are behind her now, and we think it’s finally time for Teacup to discover what it’s like to simply be a kitty - and be loved and spoiled for a change. ❀️

Teacup can be a little reserved at first. She may sit back and quietly watch you, taking some time to decide what she thinks. But show her a little affection and you’ll quickly see her transformation - suddenly she’s all purrs and soaking up the attention!

She gets along well with other cats and would likely do well with cat-savvy dogs, too. More than anything, Teacup deserves a comfortable home where she can leave her momma days behind and spend the rest of her life being someone’s cherished companion.

She’s been a momma, she’s been through the hard stuff, and now it’s Teacup’s turn to be the baby. β˜•πŸ’•

Meet Elijah! 🐾

Elijah came to us when his owner was no longer able to care for him and some of his kitty friends. When he first arrived, Elijah needed a little time to adjust and figure out that he was safe. But with some patience and kindness, he’s really started to come out of his shell - and we’re so happy to see his personality shining through!

Elijah is the kind of kitty who just needs someone willing to give him a little time to feel comfortable. Once he warms up, he’s ready to be part of the action and show you what a great little companion he can be.

We think Elijah would be especially happy with a social kitty friend to keep him company. And if you already have a resident cat, Elijah is perfectly happy to give them a chance to become his new best friend. ❀️

If you’re looking for a sweet boy who just needed a little patience and is now ready for his next chapter, come meet Elijah!

Snorkel is tired of shelter life and looking for a home.

He’s an older gent, at almost 10 years old, and has a fairly reserved or independent demeanor. He's still a curious and inquisitive guy who likes to explore new places and smell all the smells. He appreciates the finer things in life, like a cozy nap spot, tasty snacks, and the loyalty of a dedicated human or two. He fancies himself a bit of a ladies' man, though and prefers the company of female felines to other males.

Snorkel is at the shelter, so stop in between 11-4 Monday-Saturday to meet him 🐾🐾

! Meet Clifford !
Clifford may be a big red dog, but his heart is even bigger! This lovable goofball knows sit, speak, and paw, and is always ready to show off his skills for some love and attention.
Clifford is good with kids and other dogs, making him a wonderful companion for an active family. He hasn't been tested with cats yet, so that is still a mystery left to be solved.
If you are looking for a big, goofy, sweet boy with tons of love to give, Clifford might be your guy!
Additional info: Clifford is about 4 and a half years old and weighs 89.6 lbs. He is not yet neutered but will be very soon!

He is available to visit ON SITE and go home with you! To see ALL AVAILABLE kitties, pups and guinea pigs, and APPLY TO ADOPT, visit our website:

****UPDATE***Foster to Adopt!!!****

πŸ’• Meet Your New Adventure Buddy! πŸ’•

Meet Gizmo! This adorable 2-year-old Miniature Pinscher/Yorkie mix is a little girl with a BIG personality! She is incredibly sweet, loves being held, and is always ready to hop in the car and go wherever the adventure takes her. She might just be the perfect little purse pup for someone looking for a tiny companion to take along for the ride!

She came to us as a stray and, sadly, was never reclaimed. She is not yet spayed, but will be very soon! Despite the big change in her world, she continues to show everyone just how loving she is. She gets along well with other dogs and walks nicely on a leash, making her a great little sidekick for walks and outings.

Like many shelter pets, she may need a refresher on potty training. Shelter life can be stressful and often means losing the routine they were once accustomed to, so she’ll need patience, consistency, and a little time to get back into a home routine.

We haven’t had the opportunity to test her with cats yet, but a careful introduction could certainly be worth a shot!

If you’re looking for a sweet little girl who loves cuddles, car rides, and being by your side, she may be the one you’ve been waiting for.

Double the Love, Double the Cuddles! πŸ’•
Kabob and Sausage!
Meet this adorable bonded pair of little ladies! These two sweet girls came to us together after being surrendered, and it’s clear just how much they mean to each other. At only 4 lbs and 12 lbs, they may be tiny, but they have HUGE hearts!

They are incredibly sweet, gentle, and absolutely love being held. They’re happiest when they’re together, and because of how closely attached they are, we would really love to see them find a home where they can stay side by side.

These two are looking for someone who will give them all the love, cuddles, and security they deserve. If you’re looking for twice the companionship and twice the snuggles, this precious pair could be the perfect match!

These babies are available, please stop by the shelter to see them! To see ALL AVAILABLE kitties, pups and rabbit and APPLY TO ADOPT, visit our website:
