Benny

Meet Benny! Benny is a 7 year old pug/beagle mix that comes in at a low-riding 22lbs. He is a ball of fun and energy when you want him to be, but most of the time, he is content to lay at your feet and snore away the day or night.

Lola

My name is Lola. I am a dainty little darlin who would love to be a stocking stuffer for some lucky person this year. I was found as a stray and am estimated to be 6 years old. Right now I am a little full around the midriff but maybe we can make a resolution to drop some extra pounds in 2017. Nobody wants to worry about calories when the holidays are here. I am the perfect size for apartment living and so far have been as quiet as a mouse in my foster home. I ride very nicely in the car and walk well on my leash. I will even let you dress me up. I am very good natured.

Pumba

Pumba is an 8yr old Shepard-Poodle mix. His name was given to him because of his similar appearance to Pumba from The Lion King; he has an incredible underbite and had long hair on his back with short hair on the sides! Also, like puma from the Lion King, our Pumba has a ton of energy to offer. He loves to play and go for walks and occasional jogs. A difference with our Pumba is that he is a perfect 25lbs and rarely ever talks/ bark.

Downey

Downey is a very soft, sweet, kind, and loving cat. He loves to rub up against your hands and feet, and will lick/kiss for pets. He is very gentle and his fur is very, *very* soft. He also often crosses his paws at the wrists in an adorable manner. He also rolls over easily, as you can see from his profile picture, but he's also quite dignified. He rarely declines affection or attention, but he doesn't demand it, either.

Earl

Earl is a love bug and we do mean bug! He loves to be around people and will let you know if he is not receiving the attention he demands! He will meow and meow his little heart out until you scratch his chin or give him a treat. He knows his name and will talk with you if you call him. He isnt big on being picked up, but rub his belly and scratch his chin and he'll love you forever. Earl also loves to sit in the window and watch the birds fly by.

Miko

Miko is a very sweet and round 1 to 2 year old boy. Miko came from a home where he did not get a lot of socialization so he is still getting used to trusting humans. He sometimes forgets how great people can be so he needs a patient home that will continue to help him come out of his shell. Miko can be adopted on his own or with his brother Pistachio, but he would do best in a home with another social cat that can be his buddy.

Sepp

Sepp is a 3 year old all black male cat. He was found as a stray and is extremely friendly. Sepp can't wait to get out of his cage and into his forever home.

Tina

Tina was dropped off on the doorstep of a rescuer so we don't know much about her former life. She is incredibly patient and calm for a cat that has been through so much. She would love to go to a cozy, stable home where she can be pampered like a princess.
