New Cats:Max,Rudy And Terry

December 6, 2009

Max:

Max is a neutered 10 yr old all black short hair cat.  He is extremely sweet and good natured.  Litter box trained.  He is great with children and is very talkative.  Max deserves to find a home that will love him for the rest of his life.

Approximate DOB- August 1999

 All of our dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. Dogs are also tested for heartworms and cats for FeLV/FIV. If a dog has been with us long enough, he/she has also received some basic obedience training with our in-house trainer and staff.

Rudy:

Rudy is a very loving and sweet big fellow.  He was found wondering around trailer park with a painful eye condition.  His eyelids were turned in and his eyes were constantly irritated.   He had a very successful surgery on his eyes and they are now painfree. He is very playful… batting around his toys at length.  He would do well as an only kitty or with another laid back cat.  He is a wonderful beautiful cat that deserves a good home for life.  Approximate DOB- August 2007

 All of our dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. Dogs are also tested for heartworms and cats for FeLV/FIV. If a dog has been with us long enough, he/she has also received some basic obedience training with our in-house trainer and staff.

Terry:

She would make a perfect addition to your family. Approximate DOB – April 2006 All of our dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped.

New Dog:Willow

December 4, 2009

Willow is an adorable little 30 lb., 4 month old pit mix with long legs and a sparkling personality. As strong and resilient as her name, She was picked up by a couple of kids after being rolled under a car and has been a very appreciative little pup ever since. She absolutely adores her foster dog brothers and sisters (all 6 of them), enjoys trying to play with her feline companions and follows her foster parents everywhere. Willow is a pretty special girl that would love a home as active and good hearted as she is. She is perfectly crate trained and ready for her forever home. All of our dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. Dogs are also tested for heartworms and cats for FeLV/FIV. If a dog has been with us long enough, he/she has also received some basic obedience training with our in-house trainer and staff.

Monthly Poems!

December 2, 2009

 

Every month I will try and give you a poem I made about one of the cats or dogs here is December’s

Puddles     

Puddles is as

white as a polar bear

as she tumbles

down the hall.

She loves to dance

and play with

her sister Duckie

who is a black

as coal.

But best of all puddles

is the best cat of all!

Whoooo!

New Dog:Zorba

November 26, 2009

Click here to see a better picture of me! Zorba is a gorgeous 2 yr old boy looking for a forever home where he can continue to show off his awesome personality. Rescued by his foster family off the street, this 55lb pit bull adores his doggie family almost as much as he loves his human time. He is doing great in his home environment, learning all the basics with ease, and would love to be your second, or maybe third dog. If you are looking for a super sweet pit with great social skills and a big goofy head to melt your heart-Zorba is the boy for you! All of our dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. Dogs are also tested for heartworms and cats for FeLV/FIV. If a dog has been with us long enough, he/she has also received some basic obedience training with our in-house trainer and staff.
