Thank you for being part of an incredible year at the Newport Beach Animal Shelter.

In 2025, we welcomed 330 animals, helped 120 find their way back home, and watched 162 others start new chapters with loving families. From kittens in foster care to long-timers like Blue Bell and Buttercup finally finding homes, every moment mattered.

Here’s to another year of second chances, wagging tails, and the community that makes it possible.

Meet Bobby. He’s a 15-pound mini poodle/lhasa apso mix who is now looking for an approved home or rescue. Bobby is blind and deaf, but he’s very sweet and just needs a quiet place where he can stay comfortable. He doesn’t have any known medical issues outside of his hearing and vision loss.

He also does not photograph well, as you can probably tell, but he makes up for it with his gentle personality.

If you’d like to meet Bobby or learn more, please fill out an adoption application (link in bio).

The Newport Beach Animal Shelter is excited to introduce Fredrick, a 10-year-old black male Cocker Spaniel who is now available for adoption. Fredrick weighs about 35 pounds and is blind in one eye, but he gets around fine and enjoys the company of people.

Fredrick does not do well with children, so he will need an adult-only home. He is a sweetheart and will need regular grooming. He is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated.

If you are interested in meeting Fredrick or learning more about him, please contact the Newport Beach Animal Shelter at 949-718-3454 or email [email protected]

Meet Olive! Miss Olive is an 8-month-old sweetheart who is now available for adoption! She was an owner surrender and lived with another cat in her previous home. She is incredibly affectionate, curious, and loves being close to you. She followed the camera around the entire time, which made photos a fun challenge.

Olive is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. If you are looking for a loving kitten who wants to be part of everything you do, she might be the perfect match.

Interested in meeting Olive? Fill out an adoption application and our staff will get in touch to schedule a meet and greet.

Meet Abby! Abby is a 12-year-old Chihuahua who has been with us since January. This girl has been patiently healing from some skin issues, which are now well managed, and she’s finally ready to find her forever home.

Abby is deaf, but that doesn’t stop her from enjoying life. She recently joined us at the Mariners Library story time, where she sat calmly with the children and even let the little ones pet her. She’s a sweet, easygoing companion who would love a quiet home where she can curl up on your lap and soak up all the love she deserves.

If you'd like to meet Abby, please contact the shelter at 949-718-3454 or email [email protected] to schedule a meet and greet.
