Yondu’s dashing side smile (thanks to his uniquely shaped jaw) is just one of the many reasons you’ll fall in love with him. 🥰

This social butterfly has lived with and adored the company of other dogs, cats, and even children! He’s proof that imperfections only make you more perfect. Could Yondu be your next best friend? Come meet him today! 🏡💖

🍁Sweet Maple Monday🍁

"Hello, I’m Grace! I’m a sweet senior lady who found my way to CAHS after my beloved owner lost their housing and could no longer care for me. At just 35 lbs, I’m the perfect size for cozy snuggles and brisk adventures!

I adore long walks, rain or shine, and I look especially cute in my cozy coats when it’s chilly outside. I’m fully housebroken, walk wonderfully on a leash, and know some basic commands—I’m a smart cookie!

People are my favorite, and I do well with folks of all ages. However, I’d thrive best with dog-savvy kids who understand when I need my space to feel comfortable. I’ve had positive experiences living with cats, but dogs in my personal space can make me uneasy, so I’d prefer to be your one-and-only canine companion.

I'm your girl if you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion ready for adventures and quiet evenings. Let’s meet and see if we’re the perfect match!"

🐾 Meet Diesel! 🐾

Diesel is a charming 9-year-old Labrador Retriever and Shepherd mix weighing just over 90 pounds, and he’s ready to find his forever home!

This sweet and loyal boy loves nothing more than being the center of attention. While he’s lived with dogs in the past, Diesel thrives on human companionship and would prefer to be your one and only furry friend.

Diesel is housebroken, knows basic commands, and is the perfect mix of couch potato and playful pal. He loves snuggling up for cozy moments but still has plenty of energy for leisurely walks and fun playtime. His ideal home is one where he can be your devoted sidekick, sharing adventures and quiet time alike.

If you’re looking for an affectionate, loyal companion who will bring joy to your life, Diesel is waiting to meet you! 🖤

📞 Contact CAHS today to learn more about Diesel and see if he’s your perfect match!

🐾𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗻’𝘀 𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿🐾

❌𝗠𝘆𝘁𝗵: Cats always land on their feet.
✅𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵: While cats are skilled acrobats and can often right themselves during a fall (thanks to their reflexes), they’re not invincible! Falls from heights can cause serious injuries.

🎤𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗮𝘆𝘀:
"𝘓𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯, 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘬𝘴, 𝘐 𝘮𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘐’𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮! 𝘒𝘦𝘦𝘱 𝘶𝘴 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦 𝘣𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘴, 𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘦𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴."

✨𝗖𝗮𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝘂𝘀: Cats can twist their bodies mid-air to land paws-first, but the height of the fall matters. Short falls don’t give them enough time to adjust, and super-high falls are dangerous!

🐾𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽:
- Make your home cat-friendly with secure screens and safe climbing areas.
- Check out some cat towers or window hammocks for those curious explorers!

💬Tell us: What’s a myth about cats you’ve always wondered about? Mister Man is ready to pounce on more myths to bust!🐱

🌟 Meet Maya! 🌟

Maya is a gentle and sweet 10-year-old Shepherd mix weighing just under 60 pounds, and she’s ready to find her perfect retirement home.

This loving older gal came to CAHS after struggling to adjust to a new dog in her previous home. Maya would thrive in a calm, dog-free environment, as other pups can be a bit too stressful for her. She’s great with cats and would happily share her space with a feline friend after a proper introduction!

Maya adores people and is all about snuggles, outdoor play, and leisurely walks. She’s lived with children before and would do best with older kids who understand when she needs some quiet time.

Already crate-trained, mostly housebroken, and well-versed in basic commands, Maya is all set to be the perfect companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving friend to brighten your days, Maya would love to meet you!

📞 Contact CAHS today to learn more about Maya and see if she’s the match for you! ❤️

We had a great time with all of the animals🐈🐾 and their families at Four Your Paws Only yesterday! It was a fun day filled with wagging tails, a woof-woof here and a ho-ho there. We thank Kathy, Brian and their staff for their hard work and generosity in hosting the event! We also thank all of YOU who attended and contributed to helping animals in need this holiday season. We could not provide the care that we do without you! Until next year Santa Paws..... 🎅🐾

🍁Sweet Maple Spotlight🍁

"Hi, I'm Bruno! I’m a handsome young guy who arrived at CAHS because I wasn’t adjusting well to the other animals in my previous home. Transitioning to shelter life has been tough for me, but with a little help from anxiety medication, I’m doing better. Now, I hope to find a calm, understanding forever home where I can truly relax.

I’m believed to be deaf, so I’m best suited as the only pet in an adult-only home, as I can be easily startled. I enjoy gentle pets and snuggling with my favorite people, but I’m also content lounging in a cozy cat tree by a warm window. If you’re looking for a talkative, loving companion, I’d love to meet you!"
