Chokko

My name is Chokko and I am from Puerto Rico! I was rescued and sent to Massachusetts to find my forever family. I am a one year old, 20 lb Sato mix, who is full of puppy love and energy. I get along great with other dogs (the last picture is of me and my foster brother) and I was very playflul with the confident cat I met (if he ran I might give chase but only in a fun way!). Are you headed back to school? After a morning walk (Im getting pretty good at walking on a leash) Ill wait for you to come home in my crate. When your home Im hoping we can play all day! Want to hear more about me? Please complete an application, I cant wait to hear from you!

Ghost

I am Ghost! Don't worry, though, I won't scare you! I'm more friendly than Casper! I'm super cute in my beautiful white coat with tan speckles, playful and cuddly, too! I'm a great listener, so tell me all of your troubles; I'll make you feel so much better!

Like all puppies, I will need a home that understands the importance of training and socialization to ensure that I will grow into a well rounded adult dog.

Samson

Samson here to tell you that I'm a friendly 50 pound boy looking for a forever home! My previous owner loved me very much, but the landlord wouldn't allow dogs so I need to find a new family.

My favorite thing is my orange ball -- I'll play with it for hours! I lived in a home with six children, so I'd be great in a home with kids. I also lived with younger cats, so I will likely be fine with cats with a slow introduction. I dot not get along well with other dogs, however, and will need to be in a home where I'm the ONLY dog. I also would not fit well into an apartment setting (I need a yard of my own so I can play and exercise!).

Stimpy

Stimpy (formerly named Blackie) is an energetic estimated six-year-old terrier mix, weighing about 13lbs. He has a large head, big paws, and tiny legs. We aren't entirely sure his parents breeds, but whatever they were they made one adorable pup! Stimpy is currently housed in a foster house with four other dogs, and loves nothing more than chasing after his foster brothers and sister in the yard and chewing up their favorite toys when they aren’t looking.

Allie

Allie is a diva in the best possible way. She is very curious- she likes to follow you around the house and prefers affection in small doses. She is on the smaller side with a beautiful, soft calico coat that barely sheds.

Allie is twelve, but she looks and acts like a five year old! She is always bouncing around, exploring boxes, hiding under blankets and making herself little nests on the couch.

Icee

Icee is a sweet tortie girl who's friendly, enjoys attention, and can't wait for her forever home so she can get started on a new life of shared love, cuddles, and companionship!

Icee has a congenital eye condition that required eye surgery which has been done successfully, but she still needs a minor surgical procedure to remove some eyelashes to make everything work well.

Peter

Peter is a one year old domestic long hair that is currently being fostered in Cambridge. Peter is a shy cat, who was initially brought into the rescue from a hoarding situation, so he is still learning to come out of his shell. He absolutely loves other cats, and needs a home with a friendly resident cat who can show him the ropes.

Peter's favorite thing to do is lounge in the sun, and he will happily find a warm spot to lay in for most the day. He is very food motivated, and loves treats. While he is nervous, he has really blossomed in his foster home, and now wanders around and plays with his foster brother cat out in the open.

Elsa

Meet Elsa -- a friendly five old tortie girl beauty who is mellow, affectionate, and funny!

She will either be right up next to you (or on top of you!), cuddling, purring, and meowing for cuddles, or is perfectly content hanging out in favorite spots around the house.

Maureen

Maureen is shy, but loves pets and brushings. She is a sweet and gentle soul -- will you be the one to bring her out of her shell and offer her a loving home?

Maureen will love you forever! Maureen is moving into foster care for more one on one time and we will have more information forth coming!
