Oh HI! I'm Blossom! I'm four-almost-five months old, I'm a very good puppy, and I currently reside here at the good ol' Open Door Animal Sanctuary. It's kinda like a summer camp for really cool dogs, I guess. I don't really know. They told me this week that something pretty exciting was gonna happen. I was gonna get to be a model and tell my story! The lady with the camera kept saying things like "Come on, Blossom! Just hold still and look at me for literally one second. That's all I need," but I gotta be honest: that's just not
My name is Rain and I'm only three months old, but I'm kinda three-months-going-on-thirty, if you know what I mean. Like, yeah, I was literally just born in the spring, but I'm pretty sure I've got life basically figured out. First of all, I'm amazing at making friends. All the other puppies love me. When I meet a human, I take a flying leap right into their lap and lean in. They love it and I get to cuddle them and give them kisses. I learned that move all on my own, mostly 'cause I wanted to be in a

Aaaaaaaand now, preeeeeeeesenting, iiiiiiiin person...ME! ...STING! (pause for wild cheering). I'm cute. I'm soft. I love to play. I'm little (4 months old). I get along great with other cats and kittens and dogs and humans and everything and everyone. I'm your typical kitten: friendly, outgoing, curious, and lots and lots of fun. Right now, I don't always have time for cuddling or being held. That may change as I grow and mature, but right now, there's a whole exciting world and it's all new to me! Like, for example, have you ever seen one of these spring toys? Oh man, they're
My name is Gummy Bear! Only, of course, I'm not so gummy. I've got teeth. And I'm a dog, not a bear. But I don't mind. You can call me whatever you like. I'm only four months old, but I've already seen a lot of different ways that people can treat dogs. The first people I knew moved away from their home and abandoned my mom. They took my siblings and me along at first, but I guess they couldn't find anyone who wanted us, 'cause they brought us back to our old house and left us in a neighbor's
My name is Mortianna and I've heard a rumor that it's common for black cats to wait longer for homes than their more flamboyant-looking counterparts. That can't be true, can it? I mean, I'm brilliant. I'm super-outgoing, cheeky, and I love to play. I'm curious, I'm good with dogs, and I get along especially well with adult cats. I hiss a little at first, but pretty soon, I'm cuddling and grooming with them. All in all, I'm an amazing cat! So why is it that I'm four months old now, all my siblings were adopted ages ago, and I'm still
Have you ever really wanted to do something, but you were kind of scared? Like riding a roller coaster. Getting up on a stage and performing. Asking someone out for a date. Going on a trip to Thailand. Getting a tattoo. Falling in love. My name is Koe and I know just how that feels. To know you're going to enjoy something. To know it's worth doing. To want it so badly. And to be scared at the same time. For me, of course, it's finding a family. It's scary, you know? To put your whole life in someone's hands.
HI EVERYBODEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! My name is Dori! You'd probably guess that I'm a girl dog on account of my name, but I'm actually a boy. There are two things you've probably heard and I'm here to do some myth busting. Number one, you probably think that puppies always get adopted right away! Everyone wants puppies right? Well if that's the case, how come I'm five months old and still waiting for a family, huh? Sure, lots of people do want puppies, but if you've got 50 puppy adopters and 30363564574577346345545262464 puppies... you're gonna have some leftovers. Like me. Number two, I bet you've heard
Hello new person. Would you like to pet me and hold me and become my best friend? Because I would be fine with that. As far as I'm concerned, we're already best friends! My name is Sunny! And it is 100% apropos. Because I will be your sunshine. I will TOTALLY make you happy when skies are gray. I'll make sure that you know, dear, how much I love you. And I have no intention of going away. I'm everything you need when the world seems a little too cloudy. I'm super soft and very affectionate. I'll follow you around and
