Nova (1-year old) is a super sweet, affectionate. She is currently living with a foster but is looking for her forever home where she can continue healing from being hit by a car two months ago that broke her leg. She will need some patience as her leg continues to heal and she regains her strength and muscle mass.

Even with a healing leg, this girl has some energy! I have a big personality, lots of energy, and a lot of love to give! I love to go on walks and play in the backyard, but I have to play slowly now to strengthen my leg. Even though my cast is off, my leg is still healing. My ball is my favorite toy- I will play fetch with you for hours and can't wait for the Vet to tell me that I can run fast again! Nova loves to spend time outside exploring, playing fetch with her ball, or just laying in the grass feeling the breeze and sunshine.

She also enjoys going on walks in her harness but still needs some leash training. Nova is completely potty-trained and is well-behaved in the house. While she is super energetic outside, inside Nova is a pretty calm girl. She loves her people SO much and would cuddle all the time if you let her! One of her favorite activities is taking a snooze on nice cool surfaces, like tile or wood floors. If you are looking for a loving, sweet, dog who loves all people please give Nova a chance!

She would love to find a home with a family that has time to spend exercising with her each day to get out the zoomies. However, it is important that she NOT be in a home with any cats because Nova has a high prey drive

Hello, I'm Arpa (3-years old). I may be young, but I've got a spirit as old as time. I'm a curious soul, always exploring every nook and cranny. I'm a bit shy, but don't let that fool you. Give me a little time, and I'll warm up to you. I also value my independence. I'm not the kind of cat who demands constant attention, but I'll always be there when you need a quiet companion. I'm ready to share my love and curiosity with someone who'll respect my independence and help me overcome my shyness. Adopt me, and let's explore life together.

MAY NOT LIKE OTHER FEMALE CATS OR ANY CATS.

Willard (2-years old, currently being fostered) is shy but incredibly sweet and all legs!

Williard is house trained, crate trained and was well behaved on the short car rides he has taken. He sleeps through the night uncrated but is crated while his foster is at work. He's a happy-go-lucky guy and while he can seem shy at first, he gains confidence quickly with a little encouragement. He's food motivated, willing to please and once a routine is established picks it up quickly.



Willard knows sit and waits patiently for his food. He walks well on a leash and is happy curling up in a ball just being in your presence. He's generally neutral to dogs although sometimes mirrors their behavior while on a walk. He expressed mild interest in cats and would do well in a home with older kids due to his leggy awkwardness. He showed lots of interest in squirrels!

He has so much love to give and would bring so much joy to anyone who's lucky enough to adopt him.

Meet Levi (2-years old), a remarkable feline friend who's been patiently waiting for a loving companion. This adult cat has a personality that's as charming as it is unique. He's a bit shy, but once he warms up to you, he's all purrs and cuddles. Levi's sweetness is evident in his gentle demeanor, making him an ideal companion for a calm household. He's not just a pet, but a friend who'll listen to your every word with a soft purr. Levi should be adopted because he's ready to shower his new owner with unconditional love and companionship. He's not just looking for a home, he's looking for a forever friend
