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 Violet.
Adopted October 23, 2014.
When I arrived at TALGV it was obvious that I was soon to be a mom, so I went to live with a foster mom until I gave birth and raised my babies. Happily, that’s all done now, and it’s MY turn to sit in the spotlight (with no other cats or dogs please)! My foster mom said that I’m a “total lap kitty” and want to be where people are (apparently I’m a lot like a dog in that respect!). As an added bonus, I don’t like wet food, so that’s one more plus for me — no expensive canned food to buy! I’m a lovely violet-grey tabby lady, and I know you’ll cheer the day you made me the light of your life!

Hi… my name is Shadow.
I was adopted July 28, 2014.
There were a whole passel of my siblings and canine friends living at our mom’s home and we were all enjoying life to the fullest. Then our world collapsed when she died and we had to be rounded up so we could find new homes. We’re pretty frightened at the moment, but at heart we’re all very friendly critters, so it won’t be long before our old personalities will come shining through. I’m a young lilac-point Siamese boy who “eats a lot,” likes to have my ears scratched and be brushed (I’ll “talk” and give you head butts when you do!), play with my friends, and chase laser lights. All I need is lots of love and attention, and I’ll be my old loving self in no time.

Hi… my name is Madrid.
Adopted October 15, 2014.
When my siblings, London, Paris, and I arrived at TALGV we were only a few days old. Our mother was killed by dogs in Nogales while trying to lure them away from us, so we were truly lucky when the owner of the house saved us and brought us here. Then we were doubly lucky because there were two foster dads who could take turns feeding us every two hours (‘round the clock!) for weeks until we were old enough to make it on our own. So after all that human attention, you have to know what sweet, thankful, people-loving kids we are now! I’ve grown into a delightful, friendly, and very active boy, and all I want in life is another human or two to spend my life with!

Hi… my name is Pear Tree.
Adopted May 11, 2015
My sister, Partridge, and I (I guess we were “Christmas babies”!) came to TALGV when our mom could no longer care for us after 8 years. We’d been living with dogs (that scared the dickens out of us!) and tortoises (which were okay), and just her (whom we loved), so it’s taking us a long time to adjust to our change in circumstances. She said that we were both shy, but would climb into her lap now and then “when the spirit moved us.” We both like to play with toys, however, and adore watching “the action” from a nice big window or porch, so I think once we find a place where there isn’t so much going (like there is here) we’ll revert to our quietly affectionate ways. Could you give us that chance?

Hi… my name is Puss.
Adopted September 1, 2016
Puss comes with FREE Vet Care for Life.
It’s nice when humans move in together to care for one another when they’re ill, but sometimes we companions can’t always accompany them. When my mom had to go live with her step-mom, it turned out she was terribly allergic to cats, so I’m “on the market” again. I’m a striking, longhaired, Siamese/Himalayan guy who has lived with kids and dogs and who likes laser lights, cat toys, and most especially to be scratched under my chin and on my chest. Mom says that I occasionally give “love bites” to let you know when I’ve had enough, and that since I was abused as a youngster, I sometimes take time to warm up to you, but once I do, I’ll be your best friend forever! Oh, and I come with Free Vet Care for Life!

Hi… my name is Peaches.
I was adopted March 19, 2014.
My girlfriend (and maybe sister), Cream, and I were snatched from the middle of Frontage Road near Los Arroyos just in the nick of time before being hit by a car. To say that we were frightened is the understatement of the year, but now that we’ve been brought to safety at TALGV, we’re beginning to show our gratitude for that rescue by coming out of shells more each day. We’re tiny, “sort of” wire-haired terrier mix girls (with maybe a wee bit of Mexican hairless thrown in?), and it would be so wonderful if we could stay together in a new home. I can pretty much promise that we will be “Velcro” dogs because neither of us wants to ever have to deal with such trauma again! Won’t you make our dreams come true by giving us a new lease on life?
