2/23: Peony has been adopted!
Sisterhood of the traveling cats! It is fate that these gals get along so great. They were found separately as strays and became friends at the shelter. Makes you wonder what stories they share. If you are looking for a feline pair, Gingerella and Peony are for you. They are great individually too. Both are very sweet, love attention and get along with kids.

2/22: Adopted!
Margie. There is a shyness about this very sweet girl. An uncertainty about shelter life that is unsettling to her self confidence. Margie is a 3 year old, 90 pound, spayed, Shepherd mix. A peaceful, quiet home with tender love and patience (without young kids) would suit her well and bring her out of her shell.

What does “good with older children” mean? It may mean the dog or cat is mouthy or swatty or plays too rough for the little ones. It may mean the pet is timid and uncomfortable in noisy, busy households. It may mean the pet dislikes a lot of hands on attention the little ones like to provide. Older kids are more capable of respecting necessary boundaries. We always have the safety of your children and the best fit for our adoptables in mind. Thank you for understanding. (Picture for attention only.)
