Brandon has control issues that he won't go to therapy for. So we did his future girlfriends (and the feral cat population in our community) a favor thanks to a donation from his ex and neutered him! Sorry not sorry, Brandon!!βœ‚οΈπŸ’

We all know someone who shouldn't reproduce. Maybe it's an ex lover, ex neighbor, or that cashier who bruised your bananas almost on purpose when you were already having a bad day??

Give yourself an early Valentine's Day present and Spay or Neuter Your Ex while supporting our TNR efforts!πŸ˜ˆπŸ’” app.dvforms.net/api/dv/12l06o

Donate $25 for a cat to be named after them or get revenge on 3 exes for $50 through the link above, and our medical team will do the rest!πŸ˜‰

Sandy πŸ’—

We're trying to figure out why the most perfect dog has not been adopted yet!

We recently had one of our seasoned fosters take Sandy for a short visit. This foster struggled with bringing Sandy back because he said she's so easy and so well-behaved! Sandy gets along well with other animals and kids. She's potty trained and crate trained. Sandy is a very sweet, laidback and mellow pup.

Anyone interested in adopting this 2 year old angel should submit an application through our website, www.mehs.org/adoptables. Questions can be directed to [email protected].

Where do we even start with Grandma Pearl. She's so great!

Grandma Pearl is 10 years young. She's partially blind but still gets around great. She's so sweet and loves affection. We could keep going on and on about how lovely Grandma Pearl is but you really just need to meet her!

Forest🌳

If he's not playing with his best buddy, Frankie, you can most certainly find Forest with a toy. This boy can entertain himself for hours with dog toys. He clearly loves his toys so much that not even snow can get in the way of him having fun!

Mozie is giving 🐽🐷 energy, and OMG are we obsessed!

Mozie is 1 year old and 54 lbs. He looks like he should weigh a lot less than 54 lbs. He could almost be described as pocket-sized. Mozie is just a baby. He requires soft sherpa blankets for cuddling up in and enjoys being told he's the handsomest boy in the world. Mozie would like us to mention that he's also a very smart boy! He's a treat puzzle master.

Lindsay may look sweet, but she resorts to toxic behaviors as a way to cope with feelings of jealousy in relationships. Her ex donated $25 to have her spayed so she can't continue the cycle of generational trauma, and you can do the same!βœ‚πŸ˜‰

If you think adoptable Jovie's smile is big, you should see her heart. πŸ₯ΉπŸ’–

Jovi is 3 years old and the definition of a gentle giant weighing in at 76 lbs. Her butt never stops wiggling, and she carries that energy into everything she does. Jovie is house trained, gets along with dogs, cats, and kids, and her foster says she is "the overall bestest furbaby"πŸ†

This dog should have a line out the door of interested adopters, but she's somehow been with us since the middle of December? Make it make sense!

If you're interested in meeting Jovie and making each other smile every day of your lives together, head to mehs.org/adopt and submit an online adoption application to connect with our adoption team and schedule a meeting with her foster. Questions can be directed to [email protected]!

Interested in joining our team as a foster? Sign up today at mehs.org/foster and make a difference in the lives of pets like Jovie with us. We provide all supplies and medical care, you just supply the love!πŸ€œπŸ€›
