Who remembers Sweetie Belle? 🛎️

Well, she just goes by Belle now! And we recently got an update from her family.

"We'd been to the APA Tuesday Tales many times and weren't actually looking to adopt, but it was love at first sight when we saw this pretty little girl. Belle joined our family in July, and since then, we've gotten her professionally trained, which greatly increased her trust, confidence, and attentiveness. She and her pitbull older brother love to play and snuggle. She is gentle, tolerant, protective, and loving with her wild human sisters. She loves taking walks, camping, boating, playing, and making friends everywhere she goes."

We love getting to see these updates! 💕

🎓 Graduation Day for Our Wise and Wonderful Seniors! 🐾

This November, we’re celebrating National Senior Pet Month by highlighting some of the most distinguished “graduates” in our shelter—our senior pets! These wise, loving companions have so much love to give and are ready for their next great chapter.

Adopting a senior pet means welcoming an established personality, a calm demeanor, and years of love. Senior pets have lower energy levels that make them perfect for relaxed homes.

Who's ready to give one of these graduates their happily ever after? 🏠❤️

Happy Halloween from some of the pets of the APA staff! We will close both APA Brentwood and APA Olivette a bit earlier tonight at 5:00 to give our staff and families more time to trick-or-treat.

If your pet dresses up this year, we would love to see their costumes. Share a photo in the comments!

John Lynn, a member of our Board, helped organize a pack walk for his Private Wealth Management team at Regions Bank this week! We are grateful for our dedicated Board members. They are the backbone of our organization, providing strategic leadership, connecting us with incredible community partners, and helping us further our mission by connecting pets with people.

Our pack walks are more than just a walk; they are an essential enrichment activity for shelter pets. Enrichment helps reduce stress, builds confidence, and prepares the dogs for successful adoptions by providing them with positive experiences and social skills.

We've already hosted 70+ corporate pack walks this year! Want your team to experience the magic?

🐱 Hi there! I'm Annabelle, and I'm taking over the APA's social media!

At just 1 year old, I've got SO much love to give! Sure, I might be a little wobbly on my feet and I can't hear you coming with those treats (but trust me, I have a sixth sense for snack time! 😉), but that just makes me extra special.

Let me tell you what makes me the purrfect companion:

*I'm a master biscuit maker - your lap will be the comfiest spot in town
*Bird-watching is my favorite hobby (window seat required!)
*I'm a professional nap curator and toy testing expert
*I've got this adorable wobble when I walk - it just adds to my charm!

Being deaf doesn't slow me down one bit! In fact, I think it makes our cuddle sessions even more meaningful because I feel your love through your gentle pets and warm hugs. 💕

I recently raised my own kittens (super mom alert! 🏆), but now I'm ready for some me-time. I'd love to be your one and only feline friend - that way, I can shower you with ALL my attention!

Looking for a loving, slightly quirky, totally adorable bestie who will make your life infinitely more interesting? That's me! Come visit me at APA Brentwood! 🐾

Over the weekend, 23 of our feline friends at APA Olivette landed their dream jobs as official barn cats! 💼🐱

This was a major team effort, and we're so grateful to everyone who helped make these adoptions possible.

Some of these cats were rescued from the large hoarding case that happened in Wildwood back in September. The adoptions even included our longest cat resident at APA Olivette!

And a huge shout-out to Purina for donating Tidy Cats Breeze XL litter to support the cats as they transition to their new barn home.

Our hearts ❤ are full knowing these 23 deserving felines now have acres to explore, barns to patrol, and a loving family to care for them.

It's National Estate Planning Awareness Week.

We know estate planning can be an uncomfortable topic, but making a plan for your pets ensures they will be cared for and loved, no matter what the future holds.

You can also leave a meaningful legacy by including the APA in your estate plans. Your generosity will help us continue rescuing, healing, and finding homes for animals for many years to come. Together, we can create a lasting impact for pets and the people who love them.

To learn more about how you can make a difference, please visit our website: https://apamo.org/get-involved/donate/planned-estate-giving/

If you already have the APA in your plans, we would love to know about it. This allows us not only to thank you but also include you in special events and have conversations about the things that are most important to you as it relates to the APA.
