These four gorgeous seniors are looking for a home TOGETHER! We know it would take a miracle, but nothing is impossible. We need your help to make it happen. Their adoption fees have been covered by a wonderful donor. Meet Goldie, Gracie, Gabbie and Zoe. Zoe, who is nearly 16 years old, is the mother of the other three, who are all approaching 15. They've been together their entire lives - literally since they were in the womb. They've been through a lot in recent months: losing the only home and family they've ever known and having to move to a

The Theory of Special Relativity teaches us that space and time are intricately connected. As you approach the speed of light, time itself begins to slow down. It's a concept that's truly remarkable, isn't it? Hello, I'm Einstein, and my theory on space and time might be a bit different, but it's equally fascinating: If you're eager to truly understand a cat, all you need to do is give them some space and time. That's the key to unlocking their brilliance. I'm a contemplative feline, sometimes a bit enigmatic. I'm not one to hastily dive into things. This is important
Introducing Boh, the dog with aspirations as vast as his heart. While some may envision his name in giant letters, Boh's true yearning is to see it in little letters – handwritten at the bottom of an adoption contract, excitedly shared in text messages with friends and family: "Look who just joined our family!" Or perhaps etched on a tag gracing his collar, complete with his human's phone number on the back. Can you imagine? His very own human, who loves him enough not to want to lose him. Boh's been diligently preparing for this moment over four years, transforming

Fun starts at 6 p.m. until 7:30 p.m.
Luna and Kong's rescue narrative isn't a dramatic saga filled with action or graphic images. It's a tale of quiet neglect, about picking up the pieces from someone who likely didn't intend harm to their animals but couldn't or wouldn't provide basic care. Both Luna and Kong came to us as owner surrenders in a small animal control facility in rural Missouri. Luna had just weaned puppies, which her owner had rehomed, while Kong, at only a year old, was severely affected by heartworms. They were undernourished and had painful fly bites on their ears. Understanding the challenges faced by
My name is Duckie and I'll be honest: I'm having kind of a hard time. First of all, I'm completely blind. These big eyes that reflect iridescent blue when the light hits them, like there's a galaxy inside me... they don't really work. That doesn't make my life any less full or happy and doesn't make me any less worthy of love, but it does mean that things are sometimes confusing for me at first. Being in an unfamiliar place with unfamiliar people can be extra-terrifying when you can't see. So when my person put me in a plastic box

Hello there, I'm Taz! I might not fit your usual feline expectations, sporting formal wear at 9:00 on a Wednesday morning, but that's just how I like to roll. And while my name might suggest otherwise, I'm actually a female cat. Despite my petite stature, I'm a fully grown year-old kitty, not a kitten. In the initial ten seconds of our encounter, you might find me a tad reserved, but surprise! Give me a moment to warm up, and I transform into an incredibly affectionate companion. I'll extend my paws, signaling my desire to be picked up, purring away in
