Clara is an extremely sweet girl and a joy to be around,. She is very friendly and loves to sit on your lap and will follow when you leave the room. She even enjoys company! Our vets estimated her to be about 5 years old. Clara does have food allergies so she is on a special diet - but she's worth it! Her food is readily found at most pet stores, including Petco and Petsmart.

Pheasant

Pheasant, like many of our rescues, was once upon a time someone’s pet. He was rescued off the streets after being abandoned for quite a while. As you can see from his pictures, he suffered an eye injury and bares numerous scars from just trying to stay alive. What wasn’t injured was his spirit. He loves to sit on laps when you work, but is polite enough not to walk on your keyboard. While you read, he will cozy in on your chest, purring away. He is neat as can be, no accidents and will sit up for treats.

Romeo & Juliette

I'm Juliette (Jules for short) - the bee-you-tea-ful torite, and unlike many torties, I am sweet and adorable. The handsome tiger is my brother Romeo. That's right, we're siblings and.our foster mom gave us these names to show how bonded we are. We just turned 2 years old, and we still share the cat tree, and cuddle together on the bed. Also, I confess, I often still wash my brother's head - I want him to look his best when our new people are looking for us.

Tony

Tony is a fun and lovable 3 year old cat. He's very spunky and energetic, a real romper. He loves getting into high places and exploring the dark and mysterious ones. When he wants to rest, it'll often be in the middle of the floor, or on the couch—anywhere but his cat bed. At the same time, while he likes doing his own thing, he's also very affectionate and appreciates attention.

Callie

My name is Callie and I’m a 50lb black lab mix. I am housebroken, crate trained and very experienced at cuddling. I love everybody I meet, especially children. The vet thinks I’m between 9 and 11 years old but I have lots of energy and an eagerness to participate in fun activities with you.

Roxie

I'm Roxie, a sweet happy Chihuahua mix, who would love to be your shadow and follow you around the house. When I was with my foster mom less than 24 hours, I was keeping her in my sight at all times! I'm about 8 years old and weigh 13 lbs. I'm housebroken and sleep quietly in my crate. I'd be good with male dogs but I'm jealous of other female dogs. I'm good with dog-savvy cats.

Esmerelda

I'm Esmerelda! They tell me I'm a 5 year old Cocker Pug weighing around 37 lbs. I am a super-snuggler (My foster mommy nicknamed me Love Bug even!) and would prefer to be your only pet so that I can get your lap all to myself. It took a few days, but now I love my foster parents, especially when they let me jump up on their couch. I jump right up to flop over for belly rubs. I also love curling up next to my foster mommy in bed (*shhh* daddy doesn't know)

Star

If you're looking to illuminate your life, I'll will make you smile more! Shawty here got moves, even if I'm only the height of most terriers. I love to snort and sing like a Frenchie, and am built a bit like a bulldog.... Shh, we've all had our emotional eating bouts! I'm now down to a trim 37 lbs, thank you very much. I'm 11 years young but most people I meet, including some vets think I look more like I'm 5! I hide it well
