Chloe

Chloe is a big, beautiful 6-year-old brown tabby with white bib and paws. She's a curious girl who likes to look behind every door and keep an eye on the street from a comfy window. Chloe's owner has become ill and is unable to care for her.

Plum

Plum is a beautiful, loving longhair calico who came to BTR as an owner surrender.

She is a very sweet and trusting lady who will make a wonderful companion. Her stunning good looks and love of being brushed make her one of a kind! She should be the only pet in the home.

Pippi

Pippi is a sweet 2-year-old tortoiseshell gal who loves to give and receive affection. She's as sociable, assertive and loving as her literary namesake and isn't afraid to meow when she wants attention-- head rubs are her favorite!

Sven

Sven is a handsome, long-haired gray male.

He is a little shy at the moment (understandably!) but is getting used to his new surroundings. When he is given a chance to get accustomed to new people and a new environment we know that he will be a wonderful companion.

Tiny

Tiny is a beautiful 6 month old kitten who is looking for a special home with a very social and outgoing cat friend. Tiny is very shy with people, but really loves other cats. She was trapped outside this past winter and has spent the last few months in foster care. Tiny has really started to come out of her shell in foster care and loves to run and play! She will make the perfect addition to a patient family with an already social cat looking for a companion!

Jumping Jack

My name is Jack and I'm an 18 month 11lb Silky Terrier. I just came to the rescue this morning and I have been jumping with joy ever since (literally). My foster mom and I are still getting to know each other but she says I'm a real sweetheart. I love people and other dogs. I've even been ignoring the resident cat which isn't easy because she kind of thinks she is a big deal.

Frankie

Frankie is a special little guy! He is about 6 lbs and 3 years old. Frankie came into rescue with a lame leg and our vets determined that it would be best for him to have it amputated. He is recovering nicely in his foster home, but he is ready for his forever home! Frankie is very sweet, although he may be nervous around new people for a few minutes.

Star

I'm Star! I am a friendly, 13 years young pit bull mix whose owner could no longer take care of me. I am on the smaller size for a pittie. Well, okay, I may have done some emotional eating-- we've all been there. My foster mom describes me as a brindle meatloaf, but I'm sure she just means I'm a reliable standby!

Twizzler

Meet Twizzler! He is a 4 year old Terrier who weighs about 11 lbs. Twizzler likes to play with other dogs but has shown resource guarding behavior towards selective dogs. He's only shown it with 1 dog. He loves to follow his foster mom around the house, wagging his tail or just curl up on the couch. He is a very happy guy! Twizzler walks well on a leash but can pull when excited. He is crate trained and with just the word "Crate" will walk in. He seems to be house trained as well, but may mark the first day

Tank

My name is Tank. Yup! I'm just over a year old and weigh 50lbs! But don't worry, I won't run you over! I like to eat healthy, be outside.. all. the. time. and be with you. I am a big baby!! I'm not too good in a crate since I'm a bigger dog and they are kind of cramped. I would be a good hiking or jogging dog since I don't like to stop and smell and keep going at a steady pace.
