FOSTER PLACEMENT SEARCH

Meet Vegas – A Gentle Soul in Need of a Calm Home

Vegas is a 6-year-old shepherd mix who is struggling in the shelter environment. The stress and noise here make him anxious, and he will even refuse food. But we know there’s so much more to this sweet boy than what we see at the shelter.

Vegas recently spent time in a foster home, where he began to eat well and show us his true personality. Unfortunately, due to his anxiety around the small child in the home he needed to come back to the shelter. We know Vegas will thrive in a patient, adult-only home where he can continue to build confidence and trust.

If you can provide Vegas with the peaceful environment he needs through fostering, please reach out to us. Or if you know any connections who may be able to help Vegas please SHARE to help us find this PAWsome pup a placement. If you or someone you know would be interested in fostering Vegas, please email us at [email protected]. Let’s find this special pup the home he truly deserves! Thank you.

💻🐱 Looking for a purr-fect match? Our cats are ready for a video date with you!

Many cats struggle with the stress of being in a shelter, making it hard for their true personalities to shine. That’s why we place them in foster homes, where they can relax and feel safe. To help them find their forever homes without added stress, we offer virtual meet-and-greets via Zoom!

Instead of meeting a nervous kitty in a shelter setting, potential adopters can chat with the foster parent and see the cat in a comfortable home environment. If the virtual meet goes well, the adoption is finalized at the shelter, and the cat is picked up on the spot—minimizing stress and setting them up for success!

🐾 Ready for a cyber date with one of these amazing cats? Apply today! ❤️

Meet Tank!
Brought to us through a cruelty situation, 4 year old Tank is officially ready to find a loving family to call his own.

We don't know how he feels about living with other animals or kids. Our client care staff works with every adopter to counsel them based on their unique family situation. For any homes bringing in a new furry addition, we always recommend ongoing supervision and slow, safe incorporation.

🚨 Longest Resident Alert! 🚨

Meet Mermaid, our stunning gray beauty with mesmerizing green eyes! This sweet but sassy girl has been with us since August, making her our longest resident cat. She’s been patiently waiting for the right person to see what we already know—she’s an absolute gem! 💎🧜‍♀️

Mermaid may be a little standoffish at first, but once she trusts you, she’ll be your loyal lap cat, purring up a storm. She loves playing hide and seek, chasing laser lights, and of course, indulging in her favorite Meow Mix treats! 🍽️🐟

She gets along with other cats but isn't a fan of dogs. She’s looking for a quiet home with a patient adopter—whether a single person or a family with older kids—who will let her open up at her own pace.

Help us find Mermaid the forever home she deserves! 🏡💙 Could that be you? If you can’t adopt, please share to help her find her person! 🐾
