Valentine is an 8 month old female silver tabby cat. She was discovered in a drive-in parking lot, getting on her hind legs and asking for help from people with their windows up; she allowed her rescuers to pick her up and, astonishingly, she went willingly into a crate. She is very snuggly and vocal, and truly love being with people. She was only recently acquired and will be available for adoption shortly.

Magdalena showed up heavily pregnant, and had 6 kittens just a couple of days later. She worked hard raising all her babies, did an amazing job, and now it’s her turn to find a new loving home.

Magdalena loves to be patted, and is very chatty when she wants attention. Now that her babies are all big and adopted she has been very laid back, spending most of her time looking out the windows at birds and squirrels. She loves cardboard scratchers and playing in tunnels. She isn’t thrilled about being picked up, but does tolerate it. She loves wet food, and is generally tolerant of other cats and dogs. She is accustomed to being crated, good with children (they might not want to pick her up), rides well in a car, and is litterbox trained.

Cauldron – male

The “Spooky” litter came a local community cat colony. The baby kitties were used as bait to trap mom who was TNR’d (Trap, Neuter, Released) after the kittens weaned, and returned to her colony while the kittens entered foster care. They are each delightful with their own unique personalities:

Cauldron – a very special boy. He’s been through so much and is soooo mischievous and silly. Also a big lover boy who sits on a shoulder like a parrot! He’s currently not cleared for adoption eligibility due to medical issues.
Adopted! Cobweb – sweetest baby angel. He is confident and outgoing. Wags his tail and always wants to be close to his human.
Adopted! Boo – a gorgeous little lady with a big personality. She keeps her siblings in line!
Adopted! Bones – a laid back, chill little man. He has no worries in this world!
Adopted! Moon – mysterious and shy. Despite being one of the bigger kittens in the litter, he is reserved and quiet.
Adopted! Raven – a chatty, independent leader! She could run her own company.

Groot

Rocket

Due to their high energy and sensitivity, they may not be the best fit for homes with very young children.

Fritzie is spayed, up-to-date on her vaccinations, and ready to bring joy to a family who will cherish her.

Nate is a 2-year-old, 70-pound male German Shepherd mix who has been in foster care since October, and has shown great progress. Playful and energetic, Nate would make an excellent running, walking, or hiking companion and is ready for any adventure. He is great in a crate, on a leash, and rides well in a car with some coaxing. While he plays well with other dogs, he is a bit food aggressive and should be fed separately, although this is improving. Nate is jumpy and needs firm boundaries around small children, especially when food is involved. Very snuggly and affectionate, Nate craves attention and is making great strides in housebreaking in his foster home. For more information about Nate, contact his foster people at staceysheely@gmail.com.

Winnie is a beautiful shepherd mix that has bounced in and out of the shelter for close to a year. She is a very social girl who loves people.

Winnie has the sweetest spirit and will make a devoted companion. She’s always up for any adventure or just a chill day snoozing near you. She is super deserving of a great forever home!

Meet Roux! She’s a super friendly, moderate to high-energy 4-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, weighing around 30 lbs. With her active nature, she will thrive best in a home with a yard. She loves learning, treats, and would likely excel in agility or obedience work. While she gets along with cats with slow introductions, her rambunctious nature means a home without small children is ideal. Roux exhibits non-aggressive, communicative ‘herd the human’ behavior with a big chesty growl. Housebroken, nondestructive, crate trained, and good in a car, Roux is learning to entertain herself and doesn’t display anxiety when left alone.

We gotta talk about Bruno! This handsome 6-8 year old, 70 lb pit bull terrier mix, is a charming conversationalist with a penchant for catch and a need for a canine buddy. Following his unexpected arrival in a local pet store, he spent a stressful period in boarding which lead to health complications. He has since thrived in a foster home alongside a lively dog and three cats. This couch potato enjoys car rides, kennel time (especially with a friend), and exploring Bar K, but his history necessitates a home with privacy fencing and at least one other dog to ease his isolation anxieties. Fully house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, and great with children, dogs, and cats, Bruno is seeking a loving family who will appreciate his unique personality and include him in their daily adventures.

(Don’t let her diagnosis scare you away; if her foster family can do it, so can you!) Four months later, Kindred has made a remarkable recovery and is now thriving! This couch potato loves cuddles, snacks, car rides, sun tanning, and leisurely strolls. Crate trained, good in a car, and great with dogs and children, Kindred’s easy-going and loving nature make her an amazing dog deserving of a forever home, though she would do better without cats.

Vega gets along well with other dogs, has been cat-tested with no issues, and even charmed a young child during a recent outing. Equal parts couch potato and cuddle bug, Vega is ready to share her love and become the princess of her forever home.

Theodore is a 9-year-old, 85 lb mastiff mix who is crate trained, good in a car, good with dogs, leash trained, good with children, and good with cats despite having cat allergies. He became famous through a heartwarming video of him in a shelter, where a small puppy climbed all over his head, leading to his rescue from euthanasia.

Theodore is a big, deaf boy who loves napping, physical affection, snacks, and chasing balls. He spends most of his days snoozing with his tongue out and is unbothered by most things due to his deafness, making him a chill guest. He enjoys the company of other animals but requires supervision as he can miss cues and be more sensitive. Despite missing some teeth, he eagerly munches on treats and will go anywhere for them. His kennel is his safe space, and he will walk himself in there when motioned. Theodore had two mast cell tumors removed, and while recurrence is likely, he takes Benadryl for allergies, which helps prevent growths. Theodore has so much life and love to give and deserves the perfect home. Meeting him will make you fall in love with this sweet boy.
