Hi… my name is Shelby,

Adopted September 11, 2016

You know what a cool combination black, white, and orange are? Well if you don’t, just take a gander at me! With my black coat, white mask and paws, and “whoa-Nelly” orange eyes, you’ll find out in a minute! I may have spent a big part of my 10-month life fending for myself, because I’m still a little cautious around people and can be protective of my food (you never know when something’s going to snatch it away!), but as the days go by, I’m feeling more at ease and confident with life. I was found in the Santo Tomas neighborhood, and my rescuer would have kept me, but her other cats “didn’t care for me” (how can that be?) so now’s your chance to prove to me what great companions humans really are!

Hi… my name is Lola,

Adopted 2-19-17

My brother, Chiquito, is a little bigger and braver than I am, but he assures me it’s okay to be shy—especially when you’re as sweet as I am. Granted, he’s my brother and loves me, but the volunteers tell me the same thing. Chiquito and I were adopted together; we happily moved to the country with our people, but we kept getting out. So we’re back at TALGV, knowing that we need close supervision when out in the yard and/or a dog-proof fence. I’m described as a “very obedient, good dog,” who loves chew toys, and knows basic commands like “sit, stay, bye-bye, and potty,” (though not all at once!). Every day, I dream of a wonderful life of love and comfort that’s given and received. Could you make my dream come true?

Hi… my name is Chiquito,

Adopted 2-19-17

I arrived at TALGV with some things I really didn’t want: cactus spines in my nose and mouth! After my sister, Lola, and I were adopted, our new people moved to the country and that’s apparently where I found the cactus. They loved us, but said we kept getting out and so in our next home we’re going to need either close supervision or a dog-proof fence! Sis and I are Staffie/Chihuahua mixes (that’s what they say!), and we’re good for each other; she’s a little shy and I’m strong in the moral support area. I also love to play with squeaky toys, and know basic commands like “sit, stay, and potty,” (though not all at once!). Won’t you please come visit and let me show you how great we could be together!

Hi… my name is Archer,

Adopted August 14, 2016

I’m a happy guy who’s got lots of living to do! Just 7 months ago, my siblings and I were born via a difficult delivery. Mom needed a rest, so we were taken care of by a surrogate mother—a wonderful and life-saving gift! We all did well and were adopted, but then things changed at my place. My person was moving and wanted me to have the benefit of a bigger place. Can’t argue with that—I do enjoy exercise, playing fetch, and love playing in water. Turn on the hose or fill a wading pool and we’ll have a grand old time! I’m a very loving Otterhound mix male, black and tan, housebroken, currently 40 pounds and growing.  How about we meet today and see how much fun we can have together!

Hi… my name is Candy (Ann),

Adopted October 8, 2016

Candy Ann has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

My beauty makes me stand out in a crowd—including my colorful ears (one brown, one white)—but it’s my personality that makes me lovable. The people I recently lived with described me as an “affectionate dog who loves people and cuddling.” I was friendly to all people, got along with another dog my size, nicely tolerated handling (including nail clipping), and listened well. People, toys, and my dog friends make me happy. And guess what? I’ve earned the coveted AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate for my awesome performance in the behavior department, so you know I’m a good learner! I’m a young adult female who’d love to be your faithful companion—out for a hike or in for a cuddle. Let’s meet today and find out what great times we can have together!

Hi… my name is Cottontail (aka James),

Adopted October 8, 2016

Cottontail was my “given” name when I arrived about a year ago, so I’ve assumed my old name just to keep the record straight. My mom called me James, but, hey, you can call me whatever you’d like if you just give me a new home! I guess when she adopted my friend, Canary and me a year ago she wasn’t planning on going to college, but when that happened recently, she had to leave us behind. She said that we’re both great cats and have enjoyed playing together while she’s been working (I tend to be more playful and “into things” than my “partner”), so if a 16-month-old youngster (or two?) would fit in your life, I know just the guy for you!

Hi… my name is Jojo,

Adopted 10-22-16

You could say my middle name is “loyalty,” because that’s my strong suit. Indeed, when asked about my good qualities, the first thing my person said was that I’m “very loyal.” He was loyal to me, too; when he lost his job and couldn’t take care of me anymore—although sad to let me go after our 4 years together—he brought me here for the chance at a new home. He said I got along with his cat, but didn’t care for men (although my person is a man). I’m currently in foster care, so please call ahead and we’ll set up a date to meet. Just ask for the handsome 5-year-old male with the sleek black coat and remarkable ears, who’s been dreaming of being in a happy forever home with you!

Hi… my name is Bailey,

Adopted September 9, 2016

Bailey comes with FREE Vet Care for Life

Piffle! Plan A was to live forever with the woman who adopted me. When, after a few months, she discovered that I wasn’t the “traveling kind” (she was into a lot of car trips!), she decided I wasn’t the lady for her. So…Plan B is to find a settled someone who would like the company of a mature, laid back lady and just spend time hanging out around the house. I’m healthy, sweet, and love being petted (but I don’t like being picked up — as is the case with many cats — it’s a “security thing”!), and I know that in my own stable home, all sorts of delightful personality traits would emerge as we get to know each other! Oh, and I come with Free Vet Care for Life!
