Are you absolutely and completely sick and tired of hearing anything at all about Taylor Swift? Would you rather eat a Carolina reaper than spend an evening at a party full of strangers and loud music? Is your idea of a perfect weekend one where you don't have to say a single word to anyone? Are most of your best friends a different species than you? Then you and I might be kindred spirits. I'm Ivy and I'm unapologetically me. I'm bold and big-hearted. Opinionated and affectionate. I'm not everyone's cup of tea and that's okay. I don't need to please
I’m Harold—a 1-year-old, 17 lb ball of fluff with a heart full of potential. Life didn’t start easy for me, so I’m still learning that people can be kind and safe. That means I need a patient adopter who’ll move slowly, respect my boundaries, and give me the chance to build trust. Once I feel comfortable, my true self shines—I’ll come running back for ear scratches, lean in for cuddles, and show you just how sweet and lovable I am. I love toys, treats, and other dogs, and with the right person, I know I’ll blossom into the best little
People wanna know, in the shelter with a whole buncha cats, how does the staff tell them apart when they're the same color? Like, how do they know that I'm Frank and not Catlin or Jarvis or Gustav or Roz or any of the others? Well, sometimes, my lips get stuck in my teeth. And I hold my tail folded over my back like a squirrel! But that's not the only way you know it's me. I live in the senior cat section even though I'm only a year old, so when you see a black cat sprinting joyfully back and forth, chasing
Dear you, I don't know who you are yet, but I know you're going to change my life. Consider this my message in a bottle. My note to my someone. Right now, we're strangers, but one day, you'll be my world. I'll spend years getting to know you, but for now, I can only tell you about myself. My name is June, I'm about two years old, and I'm looking for a home. The name, really, is perfect for me: I'm warm and sunny, full of flowers, plenty youthful, but gentle and demure. I'm a total and absolute sweetheart. I
Wow! Kermit! Whadda guy! So friendly! So cute! Lookit that waggy tail! Lookit that soft coat! Wow, now isn't that a dog you'd like to take home with you?Is my subliminal messaging working? I'm not sure I'm doing it right. How about this: !timrek tpoda !yob doog a si timrekI dunno. Maybe it's just better to come right out with it: My name is Kermit, I'm three years old, and I really, really wanna go home with you.I'm housebroken, I LOVE walks and completely light up when I see a leash (and I'm an awesome walker, so I hope that
All I can ask is that you take the time to see me. No, really see me. My name is Horsepower. I'm three years old. And I need a hero. I'm used to people passing me by. Most people don't even know I'm there, much less take the time to stop in and get to know me. I'm very overwhelmed in the shelter and, during the day, I stay safely tucked away in my cat tree. You would assume that means I don't want to be touched or be around people, but the opposite is true! I love people. I love one-on-one attention.
I'm thinking of embarking on a new career. What do you think? "Sammy: Shelter Cat" is okay, but I think I'd rather be "Sammy: Film Critic."I know I'm qualified! First of all, I have plenty of opinions. Second of all, as you can see, I have OUTSTANDING thumbs! I don't know how one gets into that field, so I'll just give you a few sample reviews:1. Homeward Bound: Two thumbs up! Okay, I haven't actually seen the whole thing, but I know it's about cats and dogs and I know they're looking for their home. And, from what I understand,
Everyone knows that ancient Egyptians considered cats sacred. And, when you meet one like me, the reasons why become quite clear. Yes, it's me, Florence. Petite, exotic-looking, and ready to be your own personal tiny house-goddess. Oh, I've heard it before- "she looks like a little panther!" Baby, you've got it twisted- panthers look like ME. I preach the gospel of "do what you want." Do you want to run up to a human and demand attention? Do what feels right to you. Give those headbutts. Purr your heart out. If they sit down, climb all over their laps. Why be coy? Love
I'm just saying, hypothetically, if I were looking for a cat, a little torti named Tootsie- one exactly like me- would be pretty high on my list!Not to toot my own horn, of course. I'm actually not too much of a tooter. I let my record speak for itself most of the time: you can plainly see when you meet me, for example, that I'm mellow, gorgeous, and outgoing. You don't really need my friends or me to tell you that I'm sweet and cuddly and love being held. Or that my fur is so soft and luxurious that I
My name is Winn-Dixie, I'm thirteen weeks old, and it's my dream to be part of a family! What do you think it will be like? I've never had my own humans before! Just lots of siblings, all of whom look just like me! Somehow, though, I just know I'm going to be really good at it once the time comes. I'm super sweet and wiggly and have an awesome, outgoing temperament. I'm interested in making friends with other dogs and, out of my siblings, I'm probably the most focused and the best learner. I do have a lot to learn, of
