Consider this your friendly reminder that KitKat & Taco are STILL waiting for their forever home! These adorable 5-month-old siblings are a two-for-one special on kitten cuteness, giggles, and cuddles. Give them a hot second to scope out their new surroundings, and you’ll soon discover two little lovebugs who happily entertain each other AND make plenty of time for their favorite humans. 🥹

They’re great eaters, already litter box pros, and ready to bring their double dose of kitten shenanigans to a home of their own. 💕

A few things to know: KitKat & Taco are a package deal and can join a household with or without other cats. Older, cat-savvy kiddos are welcome, too! Their compatibility with dogs is still a mystery. 🏠

So, who’s got room in their heart (and home) for TWO ridiculously cute kittens? These siblings are ready to stop being someone’s temporary houseguests and start being someone’s family.

Have you been waiting for a pocket-sized Doodle to complete your household? Pebbles would like a word. 👀

This approximately 5-year-old, 20 lb gal is still waiting for her very own family, and we have a few notes from her dream-home wishlist:

🙋‍♀️ Women? Yes, please! Pebbles gravitates toward women, so single ladies and female-only households, you might just be her people!

🐾 Only-pet status? Yes, please! Due to all the changes she’s been through, she needs a home without any other animals at this time.

🚶‍♀️ Walks AND couch time? Absolutely. She may be 5, but she’s got the energy of a much younger gal! A good, long walk is right up her alley, followed by a serious nap session. But unlike puppies, she won’t be popping back up 12 seconds later, ready for round two.

🏡 Home more often than not? Her ideal setup! Pebbles needs people who can be around regularly to help her keep building confidence, practice those important life skills, and finally feel safe enough to let her guard down.

She’s not looking for a packed social calendar or a house full of chaos. Just her people, a little patience, plenty of love, and a soft place to land. 💕

So, ladies…who’s ready to give Pebbles the home she’s been waiting for?! ➡️ Take the first step at browndogcoalition.com/adoption.

Believe it or not, there are LOTS of cats right here in our own backyard who need help. 🙏 Some are strays with nowhere safe to go. Others have families who, for any number of reasons, can no longer care for them.

And almost every week, we’re asked to help find these local kitties safe foster homes. Too often, we have to say we’re full. 💔

We’re a small, 100% foster-based rescue, which means we can only help as many cats as we have homes willing to open their doors. When we can’t step up, their futures are left uncertain. And that breaks our hearts.

👉 Could you be part of the solution?

You don’t need a dedicated cat room or a ton of experience. A spare bedroom, bathroom, or other small space where a kitty can decompress and settle in for a few days or a few weeks could make ALL the difference.

Work full-time outside the home? Retired? Have resident pets? Rent instead of own? You’re still welcome here! Our only requirement is that fosters live in Massachusetts. 📍

Some dogs want to be the only child. But these nine? They’re crossing their paws for a home with other pups to call their roommates, playmates, and partners in zoomies! 🐾

Because we’re 100% foster-based, we get to see our dogs settle into real homes and learn what helps them thrive. And these local pups have shown us they can do just that alongside other dogs!

Of course, every new friendship needs a proper introduction. Slow intros, space to decompress, and time to settle into a new routine are all part of the deal. Nobody wants to feel like the new kid stole their spot on the couch.

But once everyone is comfortable? Watch out! We’re predicting a 100% increase in zoomies, double the tail wags, and a whole lot of four-legged shenanigans. 🥳

Without further ado, here are our multi-dog-home hopefuls:
Blondie • Debo • Shadow • Zoey • Hudson • Kelso • Yoda • Kaylan • Coco

Head to browndogcoalition.com/adoptable to meet them all before someone else scoops them up. Your dog’s future bestie is waiting! 🧡

A long time ago (okay, a little while ago), in a state far, far away, a 19-pound dude named Yoda was found as a stray in Mississippi. 💫 Now? He’s officially landed in Massachusetts and is ready to find his forever home. And at just 1 year old, this pint-sized Padawan already has a pretty impressive head start on his life skills!

✨ The Force is strong with this one…when it comes to potty training! ✨ Yoda is showing off how good he is about doing his business outdoors. The only problem? Rain. Apparently, he’s convinced a few raindrops might cause him to melt. Someone tell this guy he’s not made of sugar, even if he has the SWEETEST personality. 😂

His leash-walking skills are still a work in progress, but Yoda is gaining confidence by watching his foster canine siblings. In fact, we’d LOVE to see him join a home with at least one confident resident pup who can continue showing him the ropes. A furry mentor, if you will. 🐾

A few things to know before you join the rebellion:
🌟 Kids and cats? He hasn’t met them yet, so we can’t say how he’d do.
🌟 Apartments? Not happening. This little guy has a BIG voice when he has something to say, and close-quarter living just isn’t his destiny.
🌟 Leash skills? Still a work in progress, so his future family should be ready to help him learn.

Yoda is currently being fostered in Boston and is ready to find the human(s) he’s been waiting for. Could you be the Obi-Wan to this Yoda? The Chewie to his Han? The forever family this little guy deserves? ➡️ Apply to adopt our website today before another lucky human scoops him up! browndogcoalition.com/adoption

At around 8 months old, Kelso is a lanky lovebug who’s already got a pretty impressive head start on this whole being a good dog thing. He’s got the life skills, the social skills, and the snuggle skills DOWN. Now he just needs a family to call his own! 🙋‍♂️

Let’s talk size, though. Because this boy is going to be B I G. He’s already around 50 lbs with plenty of growing left to do, so if you’re looking for a pint-sized pumpkin, Kelso isn’t your guy.

BUT! If you’re looking for a giant cuddle buddy who hasn’t gotten the memo that he’s not, in fact, lap-dog sized? Oh, Kelso has entered the chat. Just in time for chilly nights, cozy mornings, and peak blanket-sharing season. 🛋️

And this Good Boy? He’s got RANGE.
🐕 Other dogs? Kelso has experience with dogs of all ages and sizes and would thrive with a canine sibling who likes to play.
🧒 Kids? Dog-savvy kiddos are right up his alley!
🐈 Cats? YUP! Feline friends are welcome, too.
🏡 No kids or other pets? Also totally fine! Kelso is happy to soak up all the love and attention for himself.

Basically, he’s the full fall package: big heart, puppy charm, premium snuggle potential. The only thing missing is a family to call his own. 🤞

He’s available for adoption in Worcester, MA by appointment with an approved adopter. Start the process by filling out an application at browndogcoalition.com/adoptable! 💻

The only thing spooky right now is that Oreo STILL doesn’t have a home to call her own. 👻

She’s only a year old, has eyes that could absolutely put a spell on you, and a personality that says, “Hi, yes, we’re best friends now.” So why is this gorgeous black kitty still waiting for her forever person?! 🤔

Oreo is sweet, affectionate, and loyal, and she’s ready to be someone’s favorite little shadow. She’d love to be a spoiled solo queen OR join a home with other compatible feline friends. Dogs and kids are still a mystery, as she hasn’t met any in foster care. 🏠

She is more than ready to haunt your couch, steal your heart, and make every day a little sweeter. All she needs is someone to give her a chance. 🫶

At just 1 year old and a whopping 16 lbs, Sassy is a certified smol fry with a sweet, silly personality just waiting to shine. She likes to take a few days to warm up before letting her guard down. But give her a little time, a little patience, and a little space to feel safe, and you’ll get to see the fun-loving girl hiding underneath that shy exterior. 🥹

Sassy’s dream home? A quieter, low-traffic place with a patient human (women are her preference!) who will help her build confidence, master those important life skills, and blossom at her own pace.

A few items for Sassy’s very reasonable forever home wish list:

🐾 Canine roommates: Optional! She’d be perfectly happy as your one and only, but a well-matched dog friend could work, too.
🐱 Cats: HARD PASS. She considers them her arch nemeses, and we’re not looking to start a feud.
👩‍👧 Kids: No little ones, please. Teenagers are okay!
🔊 Household vibes: Quiet and low-key, please. Loud noises and lots of commotion are still a bit much for this girl.

Sassy isn’t looking for a life of wild parties and constant chaos. She’s looking for her person, a cozy home, and the chance to show someone just how much love and silliness this little 16-lb package has to offer. 🫶

She’s been waiting long enough for her person to find her, and we’d really love for that to happen already. ❤️
