Want a cat without all the kitten chaos? Meet Walter!

Sometimes, you just want a grown-up cat who already knows how to use a litter box and would rather spend his time cuddling with you. 🥰

Walter is approximately 5-7 years old, a gorgeous tabby boy, neutered, litter box trained, and an absolute sweetheart. He is affectionate, loves to cuddle, and does well with dogs as long as they respect his personal space and aren’t overly pushy.

A little about Walter:
🐾 Approximately 5-7 years old
🐾 Neutered male
🐾 Litter box trained
🐾 Very affectionate, loves to be held!
🐾 Can do well with respectful dogs
🐾 Would thrive as the only cat in the home

Walter has spent all of his life outdoors and has had to navigate the hard life that comes with it. Because of that, we believe he would be happiest having a home all to himself, where he can finally relax without having to compete with other cats.

Walter comes into one of our fosters home during the winter and on particularly chilly nights. They have people looking out for them, but what they really need is a permanent home, a warm bed, and someone to love them for the rest of their lives. ❤️

Walter’s adoption fee is $0. That’s right, FREE!

He doesn’t need a fancy home or anything extravagant. He just needs someone willing to give an older kitty a chance at the soft life he deserves.

If you’ve been thinking about adopting a cat but don’t want the kitten stage, Walter might be your perfect match! Please share to help this handsome boy find his forever home. 🐾❤️

📩 Message Erica Sagahon for more information about adopting Walter!

We were able to move these dogs into a temporary placement, so they’re not in the shelter right now - to open kennels and avoid being over capacity.

However they are still very much in need of permanent placement! We have contacted rescues and they have a plea out for fosters - we’ve been bombarded with “interest” but little to no intention of them following through.

Bailey and Rambo are a BONDED pair - they are almost 6 years old and brother and sister.

Bailey is already spayed, and Rambo is being fit in for neuter (if not already done today at Twin Oaks). They are up to date on vaccines as well.

They need a new home without other cats or dogs, and they’ve never been around kids - so older kids (teens and up) with no other pets is needed!

If you are looking to know more about them, or have a contact that is interested - please let me know!

It’s been almost 2 years since we started rescue networking for the shelter dogs.

We have been able to keep kennels open because of our connection with other rescues and humane societies.

A dog gets adopted - we sit back and give out a sigh of relief. Another open kennel.

A dog gets transported - we sit back and give out a sigh of relief. Another open kennel.

By the time we sit back up, that kennel is already filled.

A stray dog here - an owner surrender there - dogs, dogs everywhere!!

But today I’m thankful for the friends I can call in a panic - the ones who make it work when I ask for a “small” favor - and the ones who stay by my side when we think “oh s**t, here we go again!”

Today was one of those days - and tomorrow might be too - but we’ll figure it out then.

Anyway - H***h is now a PAC foster dog, and we’re all a little excited about this one because he definitely pulled at our heart strings 💜🐶
