🌟🌟Super Sunday Smiles Alert!🌟🌟

We are beyond thrilled to share *SEVEN* beautiful new adoptions with you today!

🐶*Bruno* quickly stole each of our hearts during his long wait at the shelter (just over one year). One of our very own volunteers has made him a part of her loving family and given him a cute new name: Milo! He now has a canine big brother (almost his twin!) with whom to play and share great adventures.

🐯Three of our gorgeous ginger kitty siblings also went to their purrmanent homes! *Artemisa*,now aptly called Fireball because of her spunky personality, has her very own kids and cat to love and play with. Sweet little *Hades* will be forever happy with his loving family, including his very own feline friend. And darling baby *Zeus* will be loved forever by his human family and soon-to-be-adopted kitten sister.

🐶Adorable puppy siblings *Crema* and *Berry* have gone to their furever homes! Their lives began in very dire circumstances. But thanks to excellent medical care and fostering they are now healthy and happy, ready to embark on their new lives. Berry (now called Sofia) will join another ER canine alumnus, Nila, who will be her big sister. And Crema will have two human kids with whom she will play and hopefully learn to surf.

🐶Sweet little *La Macha* went to her furever home, too! She quickly became one of our favorites at the shelter, with her cuteness overload and loving personality. And now she has her very own favorite, loving person to spoil and love her!

🐕🐈We have lots of wonderful cats and dogs of all ages, colors, sizes and personalities under our care, just waiting to be chosen. Please visit our website to learn more about each one...and come meet them soon!

🐕BORUCA’S JOURNEY TO HER FOREVER HOME!🏡

We are thrilled to share the heartwarming story of Boruca, a brave soul who was discovered in an abandoned house with her days-old puppies. Rescued by a compassionate volunteer, Boruca and her little ones were given a second chance at life in a nurturing foster home. Her past remains a mystery-did she ever have a family or a home of her own? Yet, her future was rewritten when she arrived at El Refugio, where she patiently waited for her forever family.♥️

After a year of waiting, a man from California stumbled upon Boruca’s video on Facebook and was instantly captivated. Determined to bring her home, he reached out to us to start the adoption process. Weeks later, he traveled to Costa Rica, met Boruca, and it was love at first sight-a true match written in the stars. With her paperwork expedited, Boruca was soon on her way to a new life in California. ☀️

Now, Boruca enjoys the freedom of four acres, shares her days with a furry sibling named Cooper, and is cherished by her loving dad and mom. Her journey from a lonely house to a home filled with love is a testament to the power of compassion and connection.🫶🏼

Welcome home, Boruca!
Your El Refugio family loves you!
