🎄 Missy Deserves a Home for the Holidays 🎄

Thanksgiving has come and gone, and sweet Missy is still waiting for her forever home. 💔 This playful, energetic 1-2 year-old hound mix with her classic hound spirit and beautiful, soulful eyes would be the perfect companion for holiday walks, family fun, and cozy evenings by the fire.

Missy loves to explore, would thrive in a home with a fenced yard, and is ready to bring joy and love to a family who will cherish her. She’s about 50 lbs of pure happiness and would be the best Christmas gift to herself—and to you!

Can we make her dream come true by Christmas? 🎁 Let’s not let her spend another holiday in the shelter. Come meet her today and give her the best gift of all: a forever home. 🏡💕

📅 Visit our shelter or contact us to learn more about Missy. Let's make this holiday magical for her! 🌟

Happy update on recently adopted Pedro and Sampson (now Max and Sam)!! 🐾😻😻🐾

"Hello everyone!
I just wanted to let you know that the boys are really doing great! I finally managed to take some decent photos (not so easy with black cats). I think they are content and happy, and I just absolutely love them.
Best regards" - Lorraine

🎄 Jesse’s Holiday Wish: A Home of Her Own 🎄

Jesse, a 2-year-old beauty with a heart longing for love and a place to call her own. She came to us in June from an overcrowded Newark shelter, and despite our hopes that a change of scenery would brighten her days, Jesse remains so unhappy in the shelter. She’s been waiting six long months in a cage—with not a single application. 💔

Jesse isn’t a cat that thrives on cuddles or being picked up, and she needs to be the only pet in her home. We know she’s not the easiest placement, but Jesse is worth it. Deep down, she just needs the right person to see her for who she is—a cat who deserves love and happiness as much as any other.

This holiday season, will you give Jesse the gift of hope? Or share her story to help her find the home she so desperately needs? Jesse might not be the easiest cat to place, but these are the ones who need us the most. They deserve a chance, too.

🎁 Let’s not let Jesse spend another holiday without a family. If you have the patience, understanding, and love to give, Jesse could be the perfect companion for you. Please visit us to learn more or apply. Together, we can make this holiday season magical for Jesse.

❤️ Even if you can’t adopt, sharing her story makes a huge difference!
