Some brothers are born, some are made! Bogey (8) and Junior (7) aren’t related by blood, but they’re total best buddies who do everything together.These big, gray-and-white boys are super soft, ridiculously loving, and basically twins. They play with toys and each other all day, give the best headbutts and kisses, purr on command, and love jumping in your lap.They’re mellow, well-mannered, and affectionate once they warm up (they’re still adjusting to the shelter). They’d prefer to be your only cats, but can meet dogs with a slow intro.Why adopt just one sweet cat when you can take home the
Look out, world: here I come! My name is Odette and I'm ready to make my debut. I might just be the girl of your dreams, so don't pass me by! I'm six months old and the absolute epitome of adorable. Like, you don't even have to do anything. When I want cuddles, I take matters into my own paws. I'll jump right into your arms and snuggle in. I'll even flip myself over when I want to be held like a baby. I LOVE people- friends and strangers alike- and I'm totally fearless when it comes to exploring. In fact,
Okay team! I'm Reecey, your activities coordinator for the day. Here's the schedule: First, we race. Then, we snack. Then, we nap. For the race portion of the day, you don't actually have to run. I can do the zoomies for both of us! All you have to do is stand there and occasionally do that move where you suddenly drop your body like half an inch to rev me up again. If you want, we could go for a walk and see how many friends we can make! I'm the kinda guy who believes in love at first sight.
Where'd I get these extra toes? Well, I was walking along one day, counting on my toes the number of reasons you should adopt me, when I ran out of toes before I ran out of reasons. Suddenly, I came upon a mysterious lamp half-buried in the dirt. I pulled it out and began to wipe it off, and whaddaya know- a genie appeared! He was like "Hey Shanghai, I'm a real busy genie, so you only get one wish today and you have five seconds to decide!" Should I have wished for a family right there and then? Maybe,
Some of us thrive on chaos, while some of us... do not. My name is Meatball (I know it's a gender-ambiguous name. I'm a Miss Meatball, in case you were wondering) and I'm the sort who prefers minimal chaos, thanks very much. Now, don't get me wrong- It's not that I'm a lazy dog! I'm only a year old and I'm plenty lively. Think of me more like a woodland creature: when it's all birdsong and meadows, you'll find me frolicking joyfully through the wildflowers. But if you were to drop me in the middle of Times Square, I wouldn't know

Okay, get ready. You've gotta rehearse because, once you take me home, your life will be full of these encounters. When people say "Oh my gosh, what a cute dog!" you say, "Thank you! This is Sushi. He's friendly and loves people!" And when they say, "What kind of dog is he?" you can say, "He's a rescue!" or you can say, "He's a little-legged big-eared mix of some sort!" or you can just say, "He's an American." Or I guess you can get my DNA done and tell them the results, which I suspect will be a list of
My mission: destroy, dismantle, engulf in flames. Whether it's the patriarchy, oppressive systems of government, or the tchotchkes on your tchotchke shelf... I'm not picky. If there's chaos, I'm a happy little Puddle. Puddle is my name, by the way. Isn't it sweet and cute and springy? And yes, that is one side of my personality. I'm affectionate and adorable and I love making friends. I mean, just look at this squishy little face: the little pink nose and pastel colors that say "what a little angel," and also eyes that clearly say "do you want to join my cult?"
I don't mean to complain, but I was given to believe that I would find a home as soon as I was ready to go. "Don't get too comfortable, Gomer," they all said. "You're not going to last long." I can see where that seemed like a reasonable prediction. I mean, I'm adorable, outgoing, curious, and I love to play! I'm three months old, love making friends with humans, and I'll cuddle when I'm sleepy. And who could resist these big brown eyes and this little pink nose? I'm everything you could ever want in a kitten, except... well, it's a
