Hi… my name is Boots.

I was adopted July 15, 2014.
Having lived with lots of cats and dogs, you can be sure I’m a pretty well adjusted guy (I’m actually more partial to cat-savvy dogs!). My mom, whose health issues precluded her keeping me, said that I was a “big love” who loves to hunt toys, to sit in your lap and sleep with you, am very smart and know my name (for some reason people think that’s unusual for cats, but it’s really not — we’re no dummies!). I’m a handsome and sleek Tuxedo guy with a delightful white “goatee” and whiskers, so I’m betting if you give me a chance, I’ll win your heart as easily as I won my mom’s! Don’t you think it’s time that you had a furry friend sitting in YOUR lap?

Hi… my name is Katie.

I was adopted July 7, 2014.

I guess all pet owners hope that they’ll outlive their companions, but that doesn’t always happen. My dad was a loyal supporter of TALGV for many years, so I’m sure he’d be happy knowing that I’m in good hands now.  I lived with him all of my life, so you know how close we were and how much I’ll miss him. His neighbors said, “Katie is a great dog and would be a wonderful companion to just about anyone but kids.” (I guess they felt that at my age, kids would be a bit too much for me to “take on” at this stage in life!) I’m a lovely tri-colored shepherd mix, and my dream is to find another quiet home where I can spend my golden years making one more human happy.
Katie qualifies for TALGV’s “Vet Care for Life” program.

Hi… my name is Emma.

Adopted February 4, 2015.
For a young gal, I’ve got quite a few commands under my collar! I know “sit, outside, come, crate, and no” (the last two are particularly handy when training a puppy apparently!). My family only had me for a month, so given that I’m fairly proficient in those things already, you can bet that it’s going to be a walk in the park for someone who has time for my education to round out my training. I loved the kids I lived with (all three were very young and I was gentle as could be with them), but I sort of overwhelmed the resident dog with my exuberance, so my family decided I needed a place where my sweet, playful self could be the center of attention and get ALL the love!

Hi… my name is Ivy.

I was adopted August 4, 2014.

When you’re found living under a tarp you can be forgiven for being pretty wary of the world! My brother, Hollis, and I were found in Arivaca at five weeks old with our eyes swollen shut and VERY frightened. But that was then, and this is now, and we’ve been nursed back to health and are coming out of our shells more every day (it doesn’t take kittens long to decide that being outgoing and lively is lots more fun than hiding!). I’m a little brown tabby and white girl and I guess all I can tell you is that I’m a “typical kitten” (with all the joy that that entails for humans!) and will one day never remember living “rough” when I was a baby. Why not help me do just that?

Hi… my name is Maisy.

Adopted February 25, 2015

I come with super references from my young family, but they were about to add another little human to the mix and had another BIG dog, so I was a bit more than they could manage. My mom said that I’m a sweet girl who loved to sleep with the kids, was good with other dogs, know sit, get down (off the bed — but I’d stay if you’d let me!), loved to ride in the car, and am perfectly housebroken. I’m a Staffie mix lady who is loving and eager to please, so if you’re looking for a really “special something” in your life, I just know I’ll warm the cockles of your heart! Oh, and the volunteers say that for anyone who always wanted a stocky pot-bellied pig, I snuffle and snort just like one without all the fuss!

Hi… my name is Jinx.

I was adopted July 10, 2014.

There’s some confusion as to whether I’m a Ragdoll or a Snowshoe Siamese, but if you’re familiar with either breed, you’ll know that we’re totally awesome, sweet felines, so you get the best of both worlds with me! My family consisted of mom, dad, two dogs and two kids (ages 8 and 10), and everyone agreed that I’m a real sweetheart and a lover (and also chatty if you’re feeling lonely!). My problem is that I occasionally didn’t use my litter box, but I’m pretty sure that my fastidious feline ways would come to the fore in no time in a new environment (and maybe with a watchful eye for a bit?). I’m only 4 years old, so I’ve got lots of time ahead of me to become “Patti Perfect,” and I’m hopeful that you’ll give me that chance!

Hi… my name is Kipper.

I was adopted July 28, 2014.

My first family lost their home and had to move in with friends until they found a new one. They had great things to say about me – I was good with their kids, was playful, and loved to sleep with them in bed. A couple adopted me shortly after I arrived, and although they said I was sweet, loved to play with a laser light, bask in windows, and to sit beside them on the computer desk to “help out,” I was a bit too “needy,” so they decided I should find a place where I’d get more attention. I’m a delightful orange tabby boy who is still pretty much a kitten, so wouldn’t sharing all the joy I’ll engender in the many years ahead of me be amazing?

Hi… my name is Baby Boo.

Adopted 12-5-16

Baby Boo comes with FREE Vet Care for Life

When you’ve lived all your life with one (very quiet) person and no other pets, you tend to be a rather laid back, shy lady. After my mom died, her sister would have taken me, but her husband had allergies, so that didn’t work out. Everyone says I am a real sweetie with a tiny voice who is always glad to see people. I enjoy playing with feathery things and small stuffed toys (I sometimes carry them around and drop them in my water bowl!), just like when I was a kitten. My “auntie” said, “She’s kind, affectionate, and loves to be petted and talked to,” so if you have a quiet life, please make me part of it! Oh, and I come with Free Vet Care for life to boot!

Arrived May 15, 2014
