Meet River!
AAAAAHHHHH these puppies are so sweet!!!!! Well except for the black one, THESE PUPPIES ARE SOOOOO SWEET! No, but for real, he’s pretty sweet too but he can be a stinker. If you are in the market for an adorable, affectionate, good natured and incredibly sweet puppy than stop right now and head over to our website to complete the adoption application. These adorable little babes were surrendered to us because a kind old gentleman took in their mom and didn’t realize she was pregnant….SUPRISE!!!! Raising puppies is hard work and even harder in an apartment. All of the pups are very excited to have attention and love to greet new visitors. The only female of the group is Saffron (poor girl!) and she is very submissive. Badger is pretty laid back and tends to crash for a big nap while others are still having fun! River is the largest of the pups but is super gentle. Shepherd is just a love! And Malcolm will need an owner with some experience just cuz he thinks he might be able to get away with being naughty! Oh and their mother….Inara, you couldn’t ask for a sweeter, gentler dog! All she wants to do is lay her head in your hands and look at you adoringly! The pups were born 5/5/26 and are ready to find their very own forever homes. Their adoption fee is $350.00 and they are up to date on vaccinations, de-worming and are microchipped. They will be adopted on a spay/neuter contract which means their new family will be responsible for that surgery and cost. They will need a rabies vaccination after they are 13 weeks old as well.

Meet Golden Prize Melon!
Golden Prize Melon (Goldy), her sisters, and mama Honeydewbert came to us after their colony caretaker passed away. The kittens were tiny and Honeydewbert is very friendly, so we kept them to be indoor pets. Goldy looks most like their tabico mom, but she doesn’t seem to have inherited Honeydewbert’s short tail. Goldy is a master hunter of toy mice. She likes to carry them around proudly and dare her sisters to try stealing her catch! She is fierce! She needs a minute to relax in a new situation and was a bit camera shy, but she is easy to distract with toys and pets. Goldy and her mom are bonded. Goldy is still learning confidence from her mom’s example. Honeydewbert is a very attentive mother who really needs to keep her baby with her and get anxious about adult cats even looking in the direction of her kittens. They are adorable when they play and wrestle together. Goldy was born March 19th, 2026. If Goldy is not spayed by the time she is adopted, she will be on a spay/neuter contract. She is microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. As always, cat/kitten adoptions are free will donation to approved applicants.
