🐾 URGENT: Enzo Needs Out of the Shelter 🐾

Meet Enzo, a sweet 7-year-old gentleman who is having a really hard time adjusting to shelter life. He was recently surrendered through no fault of his own — his mom is facing serious medical challenges and could no longer care for him. 💔

Enzo is stressed, overwhelmed, and grumpy here, and it’s breaking our hearts. This isn’t who he truly is — he just wants to feel safe again.

He needs a home where he can decompress, relax, and feel loved.
✨ Best as the only pet
✨ Adults-only or older-kids home
✨ Calm, predictable environment

Enzo is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, and he’s ready to leave the shelter today with the right family.

If you have a quiet home and a big heart, Enzo could really use you. Please come meet him and help him find the peace he deserves. ❤️

UPDATE - Adopted!!

Meet Lily — Your New Best Friend! 🐾
10½-year-old Jack Russell Terrier | 16 lbs | Adoption Fee Waived

Sweet little Lily is a 16-pound, small-breed Jack Russell Terrier looking for a soft place to land after being lovingly surrendered when her elderly parents could no longer care for her. She’s a gentle, loyal girl who still has plenty of pep in her step and an endless supply of love to give.

Because it’s National Adopt A Senior Pet Month, Lily’s adoption fee is waived—the only thing she’s hoping to cost you is a whole lot of snuggles.

✨ Lily’s Ready to Go Home With You:
✔️ Spayed
✔️ Vaccinated
✔️ Microchipped
✔️ Small, portable, and full of love

Senior dogs like Lily make incredible companions—they’re calm, grateful, and already know how to be part of a family. All Lily needs now is someone who will give her the same love she’s always given in return.

If you’ve been thinking about adding a furry friend to your life, Lily is waiting with a wagging tail. 💛

🚨🐾 Amazon Prime Day is here — and it’s the perfect chance to help the animals at Norman Animal Welfare! 🐾🚨

If you’re already filling your Prime Day cart, please consider adding a little something for our shelter pets. Even one item makes a BIG difference. 💙

We’ve updated our Amazon Wishlist with the supplies we need most — from cleaning products to enrichment toys, comfy beds, and more.
🛒https://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/3IMQJHNAXJLRD/ref=cm_sw_em_r_d_g__wb

✨ And remember:
Anything purchased from our wishlist ships directly to the shelter ✔️
Plus, anything you don't need at home helps too — flat sheets, towels, cleaning supplies, anything animal related, new or gently used. If we can’t use an item, we pass it along to local rescues.

Amazon Prime Day is a great opportunity to stretch your dollar while supporting the dogs and cats who need it most. 💛

Thank you, Norman, for always thinking of our animals. Your kindness goes further than you know. 🧡🐶🐱
