Pet of the Week: Bourbon!🐾✨

This 9-year-old orange cutie who has the most adorable little tufts of fur at the tips of his ears has a look that’s impossible not to love! He may be a little shy at first, but give him some time and patience, and he’ll melt your heart.

Once he warms up to you, he’s the sweetest, snuggliest cuddle bug around. And with crisp air rolling in, leaves changing, and sweater weather officially here, Bourbon is ready to be your cozy companion.

His adoption fee is also fully sponsored by Arm & Hammer!

Bourbon is looking for a patient, loving home where he can relax and show off his affectionate side. Could you be the one to make this fall his coziest yet? 🍁

Pet of the Week: Gandalf!🐾✨

Some cats take a little longer to find their people, and 12-year-old Gandalf is one of our longest residents still waiting for his happily ever after. He’s not letting it get him down though, he’s still running the show at his foster home with his signature meows and still just as full of personality as ever.

Gandalf does have hyperthyroidism, one of the most common health conditions in older cats. It’s kept in check with twice-daily medication and regular vet visits, and he handles it like the champ he is. 😺

With the right care, cats like Gandalf go on to live very happy, comfortable lives, and we’re always happy to walk you through everything during the adoption process.

His adoption fee is also fully sponsored by Arm & Hammer!

He’s been patient. He’s been pawsitive. Now it’s time for Gandalf to find his forever people. Could it be you? Send a message to [email protected] to set up a meet and greet!💖
