Are you sick and tired of the dreary, frozen, soggy hellscape that the world has been over the past couple weeks? Do you feel wrung out and desperate for a little spark of joy? But... why stop there? Why not go for a BIG LIGHTNING BOLT of joy? My name is Kong and I'm not the kind of dog who does subtlety. I'm a tsunami of friendliness. An avalanche of enthusiasm. I will shower you with kisses and you'll feel a flood of serotonin. I'm never alone in a crowd. I'm already best friends with every single person in the room, whether
Have you ever wondered what life would have been like if you'd been taught certain things as a little kid? Maybe you would have been the world's greatest cellist. Or been able to speak six languages! Or been an Olympic figure skater. My name is Cloud and the thing I wonder most about is... what would life have been like for me if I had been adopted as a little baby and grown up in a home? What would this last ten months have been like? As it is right now, I'm fun and inquisitive. I'm VERY affectionate when I choose
Hullo! We're Red and Spot. I bet you can guess which one of us is which! But if you need some help, I'm Red- the red one. And Spot is the spotty one. If you're looking for a couple'a good boys, look no further! Spotty and I are some of the goodest. We're super-friendly. I want to play games, while my brother is always looking for a cuddle. We're seven (me- Red) and six (Spot) years old, we have great manners, and we're obviously good with other dogs. No cats, though... I'm fine with them, but Spot here thinks they
Hey! Did you know it's National Orange & Fluffy Appreciation Week? It's also World Give-a-Shy-Cat-a-Chance Day. What a coincidence! And, wouldn't you know it, it's ALSO the first annual Give Annelle a Kiss and Take Her Home day! Maybe it won't be my Gotcha Day just yet... I mean, chances are, before you saw me just now, you weren't even really thinking about getting a cat and will need a few days to prepare. But maybe it will be my Metcha Day, at least. And will we be the perfect fit? I think so! It's kind of up to you,
No art skills? No problem! This is your chance to create a one-of-a-kind portrait of your beloved pet! Join us for Paint Your Pet on Friday, February 16.

Betcha they're young, betcha they're smart, Bet they collect things like ashtrays and art, Betcha they're good, why shouldn't they be? Their one mistake was givin' up me... So maybe now it's time, and maybe when I wake, They'll be here callin' me "Baby" Maybe... ___ That's the dream, isn't it? When my people tied me to a fence and left me, I didn't know I might not ever see them again. I didn't even have half a locket to remember them by. All I want is to be a part of a family. To not just be named "Baby"

All the best fiction begins with a magical orphan, right? Harry Potter, His Dark Materials (sort of), Wizard of Oz, Neverwhere, Lord of the Rings... and don't even get me started on Grimm's Fairy Tales. So what should my story be called? The Cunning Adventures of Rocket von Sprocket, Orphan? Is that too on the (cute little pink spotted) nose? Rocket, Boy Detective? I'm only six months old and very inquisitive, so that might fit. How about Rocket Saves the Day? The reason so many great books feature orphans is simple: it frees you up to have all the dangerous and ill-advised
We are CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC today, 1/22/24! The members of staff who were able to get to the shelter have to focus on the care of the animals. If you can, stay home and stay safe!
Why yes, I am magnificent. Thank you for noticing. My name is Amalia and I'm a treasure. Finding a cat like me in a shelter, available for just a $75 adoption fee, is like finding a genuine Monet in Goodwill. It's an incredible price for someone so priceless. Run your hands through my soft, luxurious fur (available in every shade of grey from Balboa Mist to Antique Silver with a touch of rose gold for the nose) and you'll see what I mean. Pick me up and listen to my purr, like the engine of a Rolls Royce. I'm very
