Sound on 🔊for the loudest purrs!
He may sound like a cougar but Mystic is as domesticated as can be. Are you looking for a docile fellow? Look no further, Mystic is patiently waiting for you! This sweet boy has one thing and one thing only on his to do list. Find his forever family!
At 10 years old, Mystic has had endless experiences and is now hoping to just relax and enjoy the simple things in life.

Could you be the one?

Adoption Update - CASH
🎉ADOPTION UPDATE!🎉
🤎Remember Chino (now Cash)???🤎
Cash came to WCAS back in June of 2016 when he was surrendered to us by his then owner. After his arrival, Cash spent nearly 3 months in our care while he eagerly awaited adoption. Three days shy of the 3-month mark, Cash was adopted by his forever family!
Cash's adopter shared this wonderful video & update with us!
🐾Hi there!! Just a happy update. We adopted Cash who you guys called Chino in September 2016. He has been a wonderful addition to our family. My daughter and I just drove him and his brothers 27 hours to Bonita Springs Florida to go to a dog beach we saw. They had a great time. Thank you for all you guys do!!❤️🐾

🐾 Did you know we’re now implementing play groups for dogs at WCAS? 🐾
Here you’ll see one of our playgroups in action.
👉Based on the Dogs Playing for Life model, each playgroup varies based on the dogs needs. This is the best way for our dogs to socialize with one another and exercise while our WCAS! This helps them learn communication skills with their canine friends and gives them an opportunity to just be a dog. Staff takes notes to get a better idea of their unique traits. We are able to get to know dogs so much better seeing them playing!
👉Check out one of our senior girls, Sophie getting one of our younger dogs, Peppa to break out of her shell and play!
👉Play groups, however, aren't possible without volunteer assistance. Our volunteers run dogs from the kennels to the play group session and vice versa. They keep the sessions running smoothly and ensure that a large number of dogs get the chance to hang out in the play group. Volunteers play such an important role in our playgroups and we can't thank our dedicated volunteers enough! Visit our volunteer application online at winnebagoanimals.org to get started helping us with morning playgroups too.

Adam - Available for adoption at WCAS
🐾🤎Adam is 55 pounds of WIGGLES! So much so that volunteers have lovingly nicknamed him, WIGGLES! 🤎🐾
He is an affectionate and happy guy looking to find his people to love and cherish! Adam came to us as a stray in late-May and was never reclaimed by an owner. While Adam has small bursts of ZOOMIES and energy, he is also happy to relax near his people with his favorite toy. Adam has been with WCAS since late May and the dog at the shelter who has been looking for a home the longest! Volunteers and staff are scratching our heads as to why no one has taken home this sweet boy! He has even been on the news 3 times!
He can't wait to meet you and he when he does, we are sure he won't stop wiggling with excitement! Are you ready to fall in love?
🐾 Adam (Wiggles) is WCAS's longest staying resident! This means he is one of our Lonely Hearts Dogs, so 1/2 of his adoption fee is sponsored by the WCAS Auxiliary. 🐾

🐾 Oden (mostly black) and Max (tan and brindle) enjoyed their playdate despite the cold weather today! 🐾
🐾 Max is roughly 9 months old and has so much room to grow. Max was brought to WCAS when his owner passed away. This sweet guy has already mastered "sit" and is eager to learn more. Max's favorite toy would have to be a tennis ball. He could chase them all day long. After a long day of chasing tennis balls or playing with dog friends out in the yard, he prefers to spend the night snuggled up with his people.
🐾 Oden is a 1-year-old Husky/ Pointer mix. He does know how to sit and stay, but he has a lot of energy and he prefers to run! He has lived with cats and said to have loved them. We have also introduced him to canine friends and he has done well with them too! We believe Oden would do well with a family with older children. We don't anticipate him being here very long! Does this sweet boy sound like a good match for you and yours?

He has been working very hard on keeping all four paws on the ground, but sometimes he still forgets. He has already mastered "sit" with a lure and is eager to learn more.

If Samson sounds like a good fit for you, go to www.winnebagoanimals.org to complete an adoption questionnaire.
📞📠🖇Meet our Office Cat, Belle!🖇📠📞
Belle came to WCAS in late November and was owner surrendered due to her owner siting that they no longer had the means to properly care for her.
When Belle was first with us she was scared and unsure of her new surroundings… shelter life was a huge adjustment for her! Realizing this, we decided it would best for her to have some extra space and quality human time in our Veterinarian’s office!
Belle quickly opened up thanks to her new surroundings! Belle LOVES to play and loves to help with any task being performed by her human! This once seemingly shy and hesitant cat has officially been deemed a lap cat!
We hope Belle can be a reminder to not overlook the shy or scared cats available for adoption. If this can happen in a shelter environment just imagine what patience, love, and understanding could do for a cat in a home!
