KC

Hi… my name is KC.

Adopted August 5, 2016

I come with FREE Vet Care for Life.

Do you have any idea how disheartening it is to have the “distinction” of being the longest tenured cat at TALGV? And the one with the most “ins and outs!” And dagnabbit, it’s not my fault! Okay, maybe it is to a degree — I DO NOT get along well with other cats — but people knew that when they adopted me, and when I proved them right, back I came! I’m a longhaired, oh-so-handsome and mellow grey and white gentleman (and now eligible for Free Vet Care for Life), who still likes an occasional romp, playing with catnip mice, and cuddling with you (on my terms!), so if you don’t have another feline, then I think you could be my salvation. Won’t you please be patient and make that happen for me?

Arrived: June 27, 2008; Adopted January 12, 2015; arrived July 18, 2015.

Hi… my name is Spectrum.

Adopted August 8, 2015

I looked like a “goner” when found sitting in the middle of of a busy road, unable to stand. Fortunately, when rescued, I was okay 30 minutes later. The doggie doctor said I was probably overheated and dehydrated. With proper attention, I am feeling great again. Somewhere along the line I was eating well because I’m kind of stocky at 14+ pounds on my Chihuahua-mix frame, but I’m still a little guy. I have a sleek black coat with tan markings, and at 3 years old, I’m happy to have fun and glad to take it easy, too. I know I was a lucky guy to be rescued from that rough life on the road, and now I’m all set to enjoy my second chance at life with you.

Hi… my name is Cali.

Adopted 12-20-16

Cali has earned her AKC Canine Good Citizen certificate.

I cannot exaggerate how grateful I was to arrive at TALGV. I was left here in a small crate, malnourished, with fleas, and expecting puppies! Happily, my ten pups were born in this safe place, all’s well with them, and now I’m ready for my forever home. I’m a lovable white and black Staffie mix, about 56 pounds, who knows basic commands, how to play fetch and ball (they say I’m good at it), and I even run through an agility tube. Love and affection are my middle names, and I thoroughly enjoy getting out and about. TALGV friends have taken me to the farmers market, adoption fairs, and hiking in Madera Canyon. Of course, the best place on earth is a place called home and that’s what I dream of sharing with you.

Bud

Hi… my name is Bud.

Adopted July 31, 2015

If I had to choose one word to introduce myself, it would be playful! I just love to play and I’m real good at it. I spent a week with the person who found me running in The Villages of Green Valley and she described me as friendly, eager to learn and please. It helps that I already know “sit,” “come,” and “no.” With some of my human friends, I’ll hold up my paw to “shake,” and sometimes when you talk to me, my ears perk up to make me just a little handsomer. I get along well with some other dogs, but I am not used to cats. And did I mention that I like to play? I’m an exceptionally friendly, brindle Boxer mix boy.

Hi… my name is Sammie.

Adopted July 24, 2015

Other dogs have lost their homes due to the dreaded D word, and now me, too. My parents divorced and so I’m looking for my new home. I’ve got great qualifications – I like being with other friendly dogs and have lived with cats; I’m gentle with kids, have good house manners, not a big barking gal, leash trained, and have what humans call “an even temperament.” Sound good? Well, here’s what I really want to tell you: I like companionship and, if I do say so myself, I’m good at it. I like to hike, run, go for car rides, and, most of all, I love having a home. I’m a 45-pound black lab mix female, sometimes a little shy at first, but I just know we could be friends…and maybe family!

Hi… my name is Austin.

Adopted October 19, 2015

I’m a happy guy who’s looking for someone to share the good times. People say I’m smart and that’s great, but it turned out I was “too much” for the senior community where I was living and so now I’m here, ready to make new friends. I’m a 4-year-old male, warm tan with white markings, and one look in my big brown eyes will tell you that I’ve got lots of love to give. As a Lab/Shepherd mix, I have good qualities from both breeds—I’m a loyal, playful fellow who really enjoys the company of people. Thanks to my smarts, I know how to be a good dog, and thanks to my personality, I know how to have fun! Let’s have a meet and greet, and see how happy we can be together!

Hi… my name is Violet.

Adopted July 27,2015

When I was found 2-1/2 years ago (back when I was 6 months old), my finders already had dogs. We tried, but, unfortunately, we could not get along. In my next home, I should be the only dog. I’m a 3-year-old, lovely brown hound mix female, currently weighing in at about 52 pounds on my slender frame. Some of my favorite things are eating carrots, (yeah, carrots!), playing ball, and being with people. I love being with people so much, sometimes when we’re together, I look like I’m trying to smile.  I already know “sit,” “come,” and “down,” and I am very familiar with walking on a leash. If you have room in your heart for a single lady like me, I’d love to be your one and only hound dog!

Hi… my name is Ricky.

Adopted October 9, 2015

Hey, if you’re into abstract art and are looking for unusual in a cat’s markings, you’re going to have to go pretty far to find one as beguiling as mine! And of course there’s the personality that goes along with them! I wandered into the apartment of a gentleman in Via Alamos one day and he had no luck locating my owner, so since he couldn’t afford the pet deposit required to keep me (he really wanted to!), he had to bring me to TALGV. I’m about 4 months old and just as delightful a feline as you’ve ever met. I know that the summer doldrums will be a lot easier to tolerate when you have me to cuddle up in your lap and tell you how totally grand I think you are!
