Hi… my name is Sylvester,

Adopted 5-5-18

Being almost killed by a coyote when I was a kitten left a lasting impression on me, as try as I might, I could never get along with the dog I lived with in my second home (I’m not crazy about cats either), so I think I was meant to be a human-only companion. But in that area, I just shine! My dad had me for four of my 9½ years and finally had to choose between the dog and me and, well, you can see who won! He did say said that I love people and attention, like to play with toys on strings, and am very curious (no surprise there, I’m a cat!), so if you have a soft spot for survivors, won’t you give me one more chance?

Hi… my name is Margo,

Adopted 12-19-17

In the company of kind people, I often get a contented “at home” look in my eyes, because that’s truly how I feel. One of the worst parts of being lost was not having a person to be with, for playing and for snuggling. I’m an active, fun-loving, 1-year-old, 62-pound Bernese Mountain Dog/Rottweiler mix female—not exactly lap dog size, but I’m affectionate with people and like it when you’re that way with me, too. My friends say I’m also intelligent and especially good-natured. Of note, I can be dog selective, but I’ve lived with another dog here at TALGV, so it depends. One thing’s for sure: If a loyal, loving companion like me is the kind of dog you see yourself with, I’m ready to take my place in that happy picture forever.

Hi… my name is Sully,

Adopted 3-25-18

I know in my heart someone’s out there missing me ‘cause it’s pretty obvious by my demeanor that I was once the recipient of lots of attention and love! As a stray, no one knows exactly what went on before I arrived, but I’m betting that what’s going to happen after will let me and my new people create our own “life stories” together. The shelter environment doesn’t always let us highlight our best qualities (there are too many of us vying for attention!), but at 18 months young, there’ll be plenty of time to get to know each other and I’ll prove what a fabulous feline “phenom” I can be! Won’t you take this opportunity to expand your social circle and take me home?

Hi… my name is Coco,

Adopted 12-3-17

“Loves to play with stuffed mice and strings, purrs so loud you can practically hear him in the next room, and wants to be cuddled ALL THE TIME.” If that doesn’t convince you, then come sit with me for just a few minutes and I promise you’ll be a “goner!” My mom fell on hard times and had to move to a place that didn’t allow cats, so after living with her for four of my six years, I’m once again needing a human to shower my affection on. I must confess that I’m intimidated by dogs and over-the-top noisy little kids, but other than that, not to brag, but I’d be the perfect companion! I even like to take strolls on my leash, so I might even get you moving too!

Hi… my name is Toby,

Adopted 12-2-17

I’m not sure what “cute” means (it’s never come with a treat, so I haven’t paid close attention), but humans smile when they say that word about me. For my part, I’m happy just being with someone who enjoys the company of a friendly, active dog. I’m friendly because I love the attention of people, and active (often sniffing and observing) because I’m so curious about the world around us. And if you’d sometimes enjoy just being lazy together, I’m good with that, too. I’m a tri-colored 2-year-old Beagle mix male, about 30 pounds, and I do speak Beagle, a sound some like more than others. I’ve been reported to be housebroken and leash trained, and if you make me yours, I’ll do my small hound dog best to make you smile every day.

Hi… my name is Thomas (aka Mr. T),

Adopted with Blossom 4-15-18

The problem with living with a human who rescues strays is that sometimes there get to be just too many mouths to feed, and I guess that’s what happened with me and my friend, Sophia. On the plus side, you learn pretty quickly to get along with other critters (including dogs!), but on the down side, you don’t always get to stay forever. Well, mom did her best after she rescued me from a house I’d been abandoned in, but just couldn’t keep me any longer. I’m a big, handsome almost 3-year-old tuxedo gentleman, so you can be sure that once I’ve adjusted to my recent change in circumstances it won’t take more than having a lap, a safe haven, and YOU to make my world right again!

Hi… my name is Corky,

Adopted 12-5-17

Corky comes with Free Vet Care for Life.

“Never a minute’s trouble! The nicest cat I’ve ever had. Corky’s a sweet and loving lap cat who likes to play with toys, is good with my other cat, likes to be brushed, sits next to me on sofa, and greets me at the door when I come home.” Whoa, I sound almost like a dog! So how’d mom give me up? Well, she had to move to a place that I wasn’t allowed, so I’m hopeful that my bona fides will convince you that I can be the nicest cat you’ve ever had too. As a declawed 11-year-old, I have free vet care (in addition to all the other good stuff about me), so if you ask me, taking me home with you is a real “no brainer!”

Hi… my name is Picasso,

Adopted with Yamaha 12-11-17

YO! I’ve been here for a while now, and I’m beginning to get a complex, ‘cause I’m seeing all these endearing kittens come and go and wondering what’s wrong with ME? I’m just as outgoing and happy and loving and kittenish as any of them! You know we don’t stay teeny little bundles of adorableness for long (we turn into something much better actually!), so while I’m still in my spend-all-day-playing-sleeping-and-eating mode, I think you’d better snatch me up quick! I’m a little guy who’s a blank slate so will undoubtedly fit in with any family, and my holiday hope is that it’s yours!
