🦖 Meet Koa, our 89-pound Tug-of-War-asaurus!

This 2-year-old Pit Bull mix is friendly, playful, and happy to meet new people. He has moderate energy, but the second you pick up a tug toy, he’s ready to defend his title. His favorite things include treats, toys, walks, and anyone willing to grab the other end of the rope.

Koa knows “sit,” and we’re still learning what else he knows. He’s working on his leash manners and can pull strongly, so bring your walking shoes and a good grip.

We’re still getting to know how Koa does with other dogs. If you have a dog at home, bring them along for a meet-and-greet. His history with cats. If interested in Koa bring your whole pack (including dogs) and stop in to meet him during open adoption hours. 🦖

🐾 Meet Figgy!

Figgy came to us after her owner passed away. Now this lovely 9-year-old black-and-white cat is looking for a quiet home where she can settle in at her own pace.

Figgy is reserved at first, so she’ll appreciate someone who gives her time to get comfortable and lets her come closer when she’s ready. A cozy spot to nap, a calm routine, and a patient person to share her days with would make a lovely next chapter for her. 🖤🤍

Figgy’s adoption fee is waived! Throughout November, adoption fees are waived for all senior animals ages 7 years and up.

Come meet Figgy during our open adoption hours.

📦 Meet Hildegard, a kitten who thinks the best part of an Amazon delivery is the packing paper!

Hilde is a petite, 6-month-old spayed kitten in a foster home. She’s sweet, playful, and equally happy batting a spring toy across the floor or curling up in someone’s lap. Give her a cardboard box with crinkly paper inside and she’ll handle the unboxing herself.

Hilde adores other cats and has done well with several large dogs in her foster home. She’s also spent time around children of all ages and done well with them.

💌 Want to meet Hilde? Email [email protected] to learn more from her foster family and arrange a meet-and-greet.

Meet Ted--

**Adoption fee will be covered by foster.

Ted is deeply loved by his family. After a significant loss changed their circumstances, they’re exploring whether a new home would be the best next step for him. Might that be your family?

Ted is a sweet, athletic Lab/Pit Bull mix who’s about 1 year old neutered male and weighs 40 pounds. His favorite days involve a run or a long walk, followed by time with his people. He’s housebroken, fully crate trained, and knows “sit.” His family says he did very well living with young children. He is currently getting along well with resident cat.

Ted can be anxious or skittish at times and will benefit from someone who can give him time to settle in and help him build confidence. If you have another dog a meet and greet would be required to make sure its a good fit. He’s had limited exposure to cats and has shown an inclination to chase them.

Ted could be a wonderful running or hiking buddy for someone who can give him daily exercise, consistent training, and plenty of companionship. A securely fenced yard would be a bonus for this outdoorsy guy.

🐾 Ted is in a foster home. To meet him, email [email protected].

They’ve come so far. Can you give one of these cats a soft place to land? ❤️

In August, police responded to a welfare check at a local residence. After confirming the resident was safe, officers found a large number of cats living in overcrowded and unsanitary conditions and called the Humane Society of Carroll County to help.

Our Animal Control team worked tirelessly alongside other Carroll County agencies through the night to rescue the cats. Many of the cats were in poor condition when we found them, struggling with eye problems that left them barely able to see and severe upper respiratory infections that made each breath an effort.

It’s been a long road since that night. Our dedicated staff have provided around-the-clock care, nursing the cats back to health and showing them, through gentle and patient care, that they’re safe with us. They’ve made real progress. However, many are still scared-- and a quiet room, a soft bed, and someone who will give them time to settle in can help them keep building trust.

How You Can Help:
Some of the cats are scheduled for eye surgery on November 14. We need short-term fosters now through November 28 so those cats can rest and heal in the comfort of a foster home.

We’re also looking for adopters. If you have room in your home for a cat who may need a little extra time to feel safe, we’d love for you to meet them.

If you’re interested in fostering or adopting, stop by during open adoption hours and ask our staff about these cats.
