Kynsey

Kynsey is a handsome young white cat with blue eyes. His name means royal victory!

Kynsey was living as a stray and while he's still adjusting to his new surroundings, he's doing well and enjoys catnip, soft words and eating treats from your hand. Kynsey also enjoys being petted and scratched, especially around his neck and ears.

Trudy

Trudy is an adorable, sweet, young girl with no tail. She was found by a kind person in Everett, completely emaciated. But Trudy's a tough girl and she pulled through and slowly started eating and gaining weight. Recent medical tests have come back normal. She's playful and very docile and likes to rub her cheeks on things.

Earl

Earl is the sweetest cat around and is estimated to be about 7 years old. He enjoys gazing out the window and sleeping at the foot of your bed. He loves nothing more than to get head and chin scratches and if you scratch his upper shoulders you’ll get to hear his nice low rumble of a purr that doesn't stop! Once you get Earl purring from pets and scratches he will usually beg for more! He is a great companion for someone who likes a cat who is always lounging near by, but not always on your lap. He is affectionate and when he wants your attention he will come to you, but also he takes much content in just being in the room with you. He also enjoys being brushed and the Furminator is his favorite.

Scottie

Scottie is a black and white male who was surrendered with his sister, Sophie, and is very protective of her! Both are gentle cats who were initially shy in the Adoption Center. Now that they've moved to a homier environment with a foster mom, they are blossoming into happy, loving kitties. Scottie has turned into a lovebug and Sophie now rolls over for belly rubs.

Olivia

Olivia is a lively 5 year old black and white kitty who was found running around on snowbanks in Everett.

Olivia is a little shy and will thrive best in a safe, quiet environment. While she is more relaxed now in her foster home, Olivia remains cautious around strangers, and is the type of girl who enjoys petting on her own terms. In her spare time, Olivia enjoys exploring her cat tree, playing with feathers, and loves to practice her world-class biscuit-making skills.

Lillie

Lillie is an 11 month old terrier mix who weighs about 12 lbs. Lillie gets along well with the other dogs, wants to play, loves toys, and ignores the cat. Lillie is working on her house training with her foster mom, and making progress every day! She loves her people, and will follow her foster mom everywhere she goes. She is the ultimate velcro dog! She does not love the crate, as she prefers to be with her people.

Rufus

Do you like big mutts? If so, I am your man! Weighing in at 85 lbs. I am the biggest lap dog you could ever hope to meet. Yep, you read that right. I just love to sit in my foster dad's lap. It was love at first sight for me. A good judge of character, I know what I want when it comes to family. A quiet home with experienced "big dog" people and no young uns would be perfect. Because I was not treated kindly in the past, I need time to feel safe and to establish trust before a lot of demands are placed upon me.

Sadie

My name is Sadie and I am about 5 years old. I’m a pittie mix (I think!) and really want to be your new best friend. I’m up to date on all my vaccinations, including heart worm and flea/tick and I’m already spayed.

I do OK with dog saavy cats and I’m ok with other dogs that live in my foster home. I'm still learning how to play but I have so much energy and really want to be on the trails, out running, or going on adventures! The couch might be my new favorite place when I'm in the house though!

Snoopy

Snoopy is an 8 year old chihuahua that came from a local shelter. He is shy and scared of a lot of things, but that doesn't stop him from being affectionate and wanting to be near you! Snoopy just needs a little time to warm up and he is your best friend. He does bark when new people come in the home, and then he is fine after that. He isn't a barker otherwise.

Snoopy will follow you everywhere, and loves his walks. He is housebroken, good in the car and is perfect in the puppy pen at night. Snoopy does great with other dogs! He hasn't shown any interest as of yet to play with them, but he is friendly. Snoopy hasn't been around young children in his time with Broken Tail, so we are unsure of his reactions yet.
