🚨 URGENT FOSTER NEEDED FOR BONDED PAIR 🚨
We’re urgently searching for a long-term foster for a bonded pair who are not coping in the kennels.

These two rely on each other deeply, and the stress of shelter life is starting to take a toll on their mental and emotional wellbeing. They need a calm, loving environment where they can wait for their forever home — together.

If you can offer them a safe, stable space for the next chapter of their journey, please get in touch. Fostering changes lives — especially theirs.

Meet Lily and Abby – two soft-hearted soul sisters. These medium-sized Africanis ladies are around 9 years young. They’ve spent their lives as beloved companions and now find themselves in need of a new forever home. Always up for a cuddle, they’re the ultimate couch-loving, human-adoring duo.
Lily and Abby are a bonded pair who want nothing more than to be near their people. While they’re not big barkers, they’ll sound the alarm for the odd stranger – just to let you know they’re on duty. Walks are filled with tail wags and the occasional over-excited wiggle. These two are gentle and thrive on comfort. If you have room for two loyal girls, Lily and Abby are ready. Come fall in love with them – twice over!

🏁 Meet Maserati – The Fast & the Furriest! 🏁
Vroom vroom! 🚗💨 This high-octane black and white beauty was discovered in true style – tucked into an old Chevrolet with her mom (nicknamed Chevy, of course!) and her siblings, Ford, Jaguar, and Mercedes. A whole litter of purrfect little classics!
All of Maserati’s siblings have already zoomed off into the sunset to their forever homes, leaving her revving her little engine, waiting for her turn on the open road of love. 💕
Maserati is a full-throttle kind of girl… playful, energetic, and guaranteed to race straight into your heart at top speed. She’s got the sass of a sports car, the snuggle of a soft top, and the loyalty of a lifelong ride-or-die companion.
She’s not just looking for a pit stop Maserati is ready to park her heart at your home fur-ever. 🐾
So… can this sassy little speedster zoom into your life and never look back?

Meet Pippin – A Gentle Beauty in Bloom
Pippin is a young, striking tuxedo girl with soulful eyes and a soft, elegant charm. She arrived with her mom and brother, a shy little shadow clinging to the comfort of her family. While her brother quickly found his forever home, Pippin stayed behind quiet, watchful, and deeply bonded with her mother.
When her mom moved in with the older cats, brave little Pippin followed, staying close, learning the rhythms of the world around her. It was in that gentle act of courage that Pippin began to grow not just in confidence, but in heart.
Now, Pippin is stepping into the light, no longer hiding in the background. She’s discovering the joy of soft head rubs, cozy naps in sunbeams, and quiet companionship. Her transformation has been beautiful just like the character Pip from Great Expectations, whose name has come to symbolize growth and becoming. And yes, she doesn’t mind if you call her Pip too she wears the name with grace.
Pippin has blossomed into a tender, sweet-as-pie girl with a quiet strength and a loving soul. She’s ready for a home of her own one where she can continue her journey, surrounded by warmth, kindness, and gentle love.
Could your home be the final chapter in Pippin’s beautiful story?

Meet Swan – From Struggle to Stunning
Swan’s story began with uncertainty. This beautiful calico girl wandered into a kind woman’s home just as she was preparing to move. In a quiet corner, Swan gave birth. Despite the chaos, the woman’s heart opened to her, ensuring she was safe and cared for, and soon Swan and her tiny kittens were brought to the cattery.
But the transition was hard. Confused and stressed, Swan struggled to adjust. Her instincts overwhelmed by anxiety, she stopped feeding her babies. Thankfully, her little ones were placed in a loving foster home where they are thriving — healthy, happy, and full of kitten mischief.
Swan, meanwhile, has been on her own journey. Though at first she seemed a little rough around the edges, with time, care, and patience, she has blossomed. Today, she’s a glowing, graceful girl — soft fur, kind eyes, and the most gentle nature. Her name couldn’t be more fitting: like the ugly duckling of the fairy tale, she has transformed into a truly beautiful Swan.
Swan is ready for a fresh start — a second chance to show just how much love she has to give. She’s sweet, affectionate, and full of quiet charm. After everything she’s been through, all she wants is a safe, calm home where she can be someone’s special companion.
Now all Swan needs is a loving home to complete her transformation — could it be yours?

EMERGENCY: WE’RE OUT OF NEWSPAPER!

TEARS has run out of newspaper — and our clinic and kennels are feeling it.

We rely on newspaper every day to line recovery areas. Without it, our ability to care for them is impacted.

📰 If you have any old newspaper to spare, please donate!
📍 Drop-offs can be made at our TEARS kennels or any TEARS thrift store.

Let’s rally together for our furbabies in need.

Meet Tobias. With his soulful eyes and gentle heart, this beautiful boy is ready to leave the past behind and finally feel what it’s like to be truly loved. All he needs now is someone to help bring his spark back!

This sensitive soul has known great hardship. He came to us with a chain embedded in his neck, emaciated and in extreme pain. Despite it all, he still believes in love. He’s medium-to-low energy, enjoys his tug toys, and is always happy to take a treat. He’s good with people and social with dogs – though he can be selective. In a home he could benefit from a well-suited and kind canine friend to show him life’s lighter side. He’d do best with older kids who understand how to handle him gently, especially in the spots where he has memory of the hurt he endured. Cuddly and affectionate once he trusts you, he thrives on companionship and freedom. The kennels are making him very sad. With basic training already in place, Tobias has so much to give. He is simply waiting for someone to make him feel safe. Come down to TEARS and meet him today!
