Gideon
I got Gideon in August 2022. He is mine and my two daughters best buddy. He makes my daughters laugh and smile when they are having a hard day. Even though his nose gets him into trouble I would not…
Jasper
We adopted Jasper at the adoption event June 2023. He was scared and had bad matting which we got him shaved, and he opened up to us. Fast forward to now he is a lovable, playful little fellow who loves…

Oaklie now Daisy
I adopted Daisy in September of 2022. She was a six week old black and white tuxedo cat I guess they call her. She came home and she was like I was told cats would be. She stayed in the…
Duchess
When we first met Duchess at AWS she was not what I expected. She showed her absolute naughty side jumping on the counter and knocking over the trash cans, not really giving us any attention. Plus, she needed ACL surgery…

Polly is a wonderful adult shelter bunny who keeps a neat running area except for her designated demolition cardboard spot! Her cardboard demolition keeps her out of trouble. It really works! Her favorite spot is sitting under the plants and…
Sesame now Chance
I adopted Chance in July of 2022. I should say he chose me. He has such a funny personality-he is quite vocal at 5am. Really he is adorable and a complete joy.
Lenore and Tex
Tex (adopted July 2022) and Lenore (adopted August 2021) are an absolute delight. Lenore and I lost our first kitty friend, Poe (adopted October 2020) after an unknown illness swept through him very quickly in the Spring of 2022. While…

Pons now Donzi
Pons has now become ‘Donzi’- a cross between Don Juan and Fonzi. He is a real ladies man, but more like loves all humans! We chose Donzi because he was the longest stay dog at the shelter and let’s face…
