💙Everyone say hello to Roxy!💙
She is a sweet, playful lab that will be available for adoption. When we got her, she had a terrible skin and ear infection, and was missing a lot of her fur (see her before pictures!). She is doing much better after treatment, but still has to undergo heartworm treatment. She is 1.5-2 years old, very playful, and would love to find a home! 💚💙
🥰She was one of the pets on the Giving Tree, and as you can see, she loved her gifts!! Her sponsors also donated towards her heartworm treatment!!🥰
If you are interested in Roxy, or would like to make a donation to her care, please call or stop by the clinic anytime!
🎁🎁Don't miss the video in the comments of her enjoying the presents! 🎁🎁

🥰Update: has found a home! But be sure to check out our other adoption cats, Biscuit and Momma🥰

Courtesy post to help find this cat a home! Young male that has already been fixed. He is super sweet. Although he stays outside now, finder thinks he would thrive as an indoor lap cat. Please share and if interested, private message the page your contact information. Thanks so much!

💚💙Say hello again to Biscuit!💙💚

Biscuit was adopted a few months ago, but returned because she wasn't a good fit in the home. She is around 1 year old, fully vaccinated, spayed, and micrchipped. She is healing from an eye injury, and may have a little squint permanently, but that does not slow her down at all! She is very loving, playful, and a professional biscuit maker (see video in comments😆)! We would love for her to find a home for the holidays! Call for more information, or stop by anytime during office hours to meet her! 🥰

Sweet Nila is searching for a quiet and patient forever home. She was found with previous injuries that have since healed. Most likely she was fending for herself for a long time, and has learned to be slow to trust people.
Just a tiny gal at 12 pounds and estimated to be about 3 years old. She has been spayed, is heartworm negative, and is up to date on her vaccinations. Please call for more information or come by during business hours for a meet and greet!
