Please give a warm welcome to our lovely girl: Penny Loafer, heavy on the loaf! This girl looooooves to lounge. But with a proper bribe (Churu, Temptation treat, catnip) you can get her moving, just don’t ask her to go far. She has only ever known a life that was dog and cat free and seems to rather enjoy not sharing any of her soft loungeable spaces with animal friends, so we would suggest she be the only pet in the home.

From her foster: “Penny Loafer is an easygoing, sweet, and gentle kitty with just the right amount of silliness. She’ll charm you with her striking green eyes, the occasional goofy meows, and playful bursts of energy, then happily settle in for pets and attention, especially if belly rubs are involved. Penny has excellent manners, a healthy appetite, and perfect litter box habits, making her an easy companion to love. She would thrive in a calm home with people as gentle as she is, where her affectionate and loving personality can truly shine.”

Penny is about 6 years old and quick to make herself comfortable in a new space. We think once her forever family finds her she will make herself right at home there too! To see this loaf in all her glory please fill out a cat adoption application today! She will come to you spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped for an adoption fee of $150.

If this kitty doesn’t sound like the perfect match for you, please know that we have more adoptable cats that are not yet on our website but are available at our adoption center – come take a look!

Meet Poe!

This 3-year-old black and white Pomeranian is as striking as he is charming, sporting a perfect little “Zorro mask” that gives him a dashing, mischievous look to match his personality.

Poe is sweet, smart, and full of character. He loves people and isn’t shy about making new friends, both human and canine, but is not a fan of cats. Whether he’s greeting you with excitement or showing off his playful side, Poe brings a fun, lighthearted energy wherever he goes.

Like many Pomeranians, Poe has a big personality in a small package. His clever little brain can kick into “alert mode” from time to time, and he may get a bit barky at new or unexpected things. For this reason, he would not be a food fit for apartment life for the sake of the close by neighbors. 🙂  

Poe’s beautiful coat is part of his signature look, and he’ll need regular grooming to keep him feeling and looking his best. If you’re looking for a dog with personality, charm, and just the right amount of spunky flair, Poe may be your perfect match.

Like all of our dogs here, He will join your family neutered, microchipped and vaccinated for an adoption fee of $500!

She may be named after one of the toughest female wrestlers on the scene, but our Thekla is only famous for being a total sweetheart!

This is Thekla, a darling 1 year old female tabby cat. She has a gentle personality, and a lot of love to bring to her new family. She can be a bit shy at first, but she truly adores pets and affection, and makes the sweetest biscuits to prove it! She has never lived with dogs or kids, and would likely pur-fur a quiet, calm home to allow her to come out of her shell.

From her foster: “This little fluff ball is SWEET! She cuddles at night without “playing pounce” all over the bed, and she is good at sleeping in, so no crack-of-dawn lobbying to get up and fix breakfast. She is mellow through and through. As a kitten, she loves toys and she loves climbing.  She ADORES looking out the windows/doors and would dearly love to be an outdoor girl (a screened in porch/catio would be ideal). Meeting new people is still a slow process for her, though she quickly became my buddy.”

If you think this cat is your new idol, please fill out a cat adoption application today! She will join your home spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped for an adoption fee of $150. 

If this kitty doesn’t sound like the perfect match for you, please know that we have many more adoptable kitties that are not on our website but are available at our adoption center – come take a look!

Meet Beth! 

Beth is a 2-month-old female Cattle Dog mix who is already proving that great things come in small packages! At just 9 pounds, this confident little lady is full of personality, curiosity, and puppy charm.

Beth is currently thriving in her foster daycare environment on acreage, where she spends her days making friends, exploring the world, and playing with other dogs. She loves canine companionship and approaches new adventures with a fearless, happy-go-lucky attitude. Whether she’s zooming around the yard or investigating something new, Beth is always ready for fun.

While Beth may be small right now, don’t let her tiny size fool you, she is expected to grow into a large-breed dog, so her future family should be prepared for a much bigger companion down the road!

Like all young Cattle Dog mixes, Beth is a smart and active puppy who will require ongoing professional training, structure, and socialization as she grows. Her future family should be prepared to invest the time and energy needed to help her develop into a well-mannered, confident adult dog. The good news? Beth is bright, eager to learn, and already showing all the qualities that make this breed so special.

Beth is looking for a home that understands the commitment of raising a puppy and is excited to guide her through all of life’s adventures. In return, she’ll provide endless laughs, unconditional love, and a loyal companion for years to come.

If you’re ready for puppy kisses, playful antics, and the rewarding journey of raising an amazing dog, Beth may be your perfect match. Fill out an application here > Dog Adoption Application and we will get in touch with you! 

Adoption fee of $650 includes, spay/neuter, vaccines, and microchip.

Talk about a cuddleBUG!

This Buglet, our darling 1 year old girl with a squeak like an angel and a heart of gold. Buglet is an endlessly curious, explorative little thing, always eager to see what the world has to offer her. She can be shy at first, but she quickly warms up and rolls over for belly pets once she meets a new friend. Since she is on the younger side, she does still have a bit of that kitten energy and playfulness – but also loves a cozy place to curl up and nap the day away.

Buglet has interacted with other cats, and seems to prefer that they keep their distance. Thus, we think she would be happiest as a solo cat. We have not seen her interact with dogs or kids, but due to her typically skittish nature, we think she’d probably prefer a home without either.

All budding entomologists are asked to please fill out a cat adoption application today. She will join your home spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped for an adoption fee of $150. 

If this kitty doesn’t sound like the perfect match for you, please know that we have many more adoptable kitties that are not on our website but are available at our adoption center – come take a look!

**THIS IS A COURTESY POST. Mabel is NOT BEING RE-HOMED THROUGH THE PIXIE PROJECT.**

This female tabby is 1-2 years old and full of pep when she plays! She chases her da bird feather toy throwing herself high in the air, and runs fast across the room when she has the zoomies. She enjoys her various toys especially hide and seek with one under a blanket. When relaxed, she craves having her head pet and chin and cheeks scratched and throws herself onto the floor next to her foster’s lap for more pets. She loves churu which she licks off her foster’s finger and she now meows to show she is happy when her foster enters the room.
Mabel has had many changes in the past few months and will need time to settle in. She has come to trust her foster but is fearful of new people. She will need a patient and experienced adopter who knows to follow her cues. Mabel will hide and be afraid at first but will gradually emerge because she really craves affection and human connection.
Mabel will bond closely with a new owner when they gain her trust. It has been incredibly rewarding to see this scared kitty blossom in foster. With time, she will become a devoted pet.
Mabel is a pretty kitty and is lean and athletic. We have no history of her being with other pets and believe she would thrive as an only pet. Most of all, Mabel is a cat who will really love her human. Mabel is spayed, chipped, vaccinated, etc. If you have the heart to give her a forever home where she can once and for all settle down in safety and be loved please email Patricia at: dpcadams@comcast.net

A Perfect Pair of Golden Girls!

From the minute Bailey and Sadie walked through our doors, we could tell they were special. Together since puppy-hood, these lovely ladies have spent their 11 years side by side, developing a deep soul-bond of sisterhood. As they carefully and thoughtfully groom each other’s ears as if they were braiding each other’s hair, their deep bond and gentle spirits are on full display and truly something to behold.

Sadie is a husky/rottweiler mix who stares directly into your soul. She spends her days giving between the sweetest, full-body cuddles, and walks around the neighborhood, requesting pets from every person she encounters and stomping her back legs around when you scratch her rump. Her young spirit shines through the second a ball or stuffed toy comes out, as she prances around playing fetch and play-bowing to her sister. She lights up when she sees a new friend, whether it be a human, canine, or feline friend.

Bailey is a border collie mix with the cutest salt and pepper muzzle and softest fur. Cuddles, ear scratches, and a good meal are the key to her heart, especially if there’s some cream cheese involved in the meal. Just like her sister, she also stomps her back legs around to show you how much she’s enjoying her back scratches. She walks around the neighborhood with a big smile plastered to her face, and her joie-de-vie is contagious. You can see the young spirit behind the greying fur!

These lovely girls are inseparable companions who take life at a gentle, easygoing pace. They’re not asking for much, just a home where it’s the two of them, kind hands to shower them with affection, and a calm space where they can stay side by side. They’re happy, healthy, and ready to share their golden years with someone special.

If you’re looking for a loyal, loving pair who are simply along for this beautiful ride we call life, Sadie and Bailey would be honored to join your journey. Apply for these two Golden Girls here!   Dog Adoption Application They will join your family spayed, microchipped and vaccinated for an adoption fee of $600!
