In foster- by approved application only

Jack is a super chill little guy who loves lounging on his cat tree and watching birds and cuddles. He loves chasing bouncy spring toys and showing off his impressive jumps to catch a wand toy. Jack was lovingly foster raised and would thrive in a house with another friendly kitty to keep him company. Jack is ready to bring love and joy to his forever home.

In foster (by approved application only)

True to his name, Jett loves to zoom around the house at supersonic speed. He is very playful and can turn anything into a game. Jett loves cuddles and drinking out of a water fountain. He plays with the resident cats in his foster home and would make a wonderful addition to a multi-cat household.

Bonded dogs are hard to place. Large breed bonded pairs are even more of a challenge to place.

Thelma and Louise are a mother/daughter pair. They were adopted from us and had a great home for years. They were well taken care of and well loved. The family was hit with a hard time in life, so we have these girls back in our care. GREAT DOGS! Great manners.

Mickey and KoopeKool have only known the shelter life. Mom and littermate were scooped up quickly. These two weren’t as fortunate. They are fond of each other after spending their entire life together. We want to keep them together.

We have had a few double adoptions in recent weeks, so this is a reminder that we have bonded pairs too.

☑️Thanks for adopting.
☑️Thanks for likes and shares to get shelter animals noticed.
☑️Thanks for supporting The ARK.
