Thornsby came to us from a hoarding situation where he had been living in crowded and unsanitary conditions. He's looking for a very special adopter who understands his checkered past and that his happy life might look different than that of a well-adjusted cat's. It will take Thornsby ample time to get used to his new surrounding, and interacting with people if or when he is ready.
Spirit cats are very shy with people, and live in your home but are rarely seen – hence their name. They are cats who coexist in your home, and sometimes may grant you the opportunity to touch them – or they may not. Despite being shy with people, spirit cats are usually great with other cats! They are used to living with many cats, and can make excellent companions for cats in your home. It’s not uncommon for a spirit cat to get used to one or two people over time, and those people will be allowed to touch them and they may even choose to hang out near you or sleep on your bed at night. They are a great choice for people with a quiet household, who want to make a difference for an individual cat. Patience and understanding are the best tools when welcoming a spirit cat into your home. It’s important to know that spirit cats won’t magically turn into a normal acting cat – what you see is what you get for a long time, maybe always.
They are a fine choice for situations where you don’t have a lot of time to devote to a pet as they don’t require a lot of attention from humans. They are not a good choice for a busy home, including those with small children.
This beautiful gal is Inky! She is a shy bean at first, but you can easily win her heart with her favoritve treats! She loves attention from her people. Her ideal home will be one that gives her plenty of time to settle in and feel comfortable in her new surroundings.
Meet Lou – short for Lucifer! Trust us - this little guy lives up to his mischievous name. Lou is a year old and very outgoing and social. He likes to play, ask for chin scratches, and climb in laps for attention. But don’t let his cuddly ways fool you, because Lou gets over excited very easily and likes to grab hands and use his mouth when he’s playing. Lou is equally as social with other cats, and enjoys romping with his feline friends, so we think he’d do well with a cat sibling who likes to play as much as he does. Lou is a curious fellow, and he seems happiest when he’s got something to do. Lou originally came to the shelter as a stray who appeared to have been living happily outside for some time, so it's possible Lou would prefer to be able to have a taste of the great outdoors occasionally.
If Lou is the guy for you – press that inquire button! Lou will not be available for adoption until 2/15, but we'd be happy to chat with you all about him in the meantime.

Kylo is quite loving and goofy with people once he's comfortable. He's happy to add new people to his growing friend circle through a simple meeting process with slow introductions. Once he's buddies with you, he'll want all the pats on his big head and butt scratches you have to offer. He's an adventurous guy that loves getting out on hikes and sniffing around in nature. He is highly food motivated and is working on his basic commands. When it comes to other canines, he is eager and excited to meet them and often brings the playful side out of the dogs he is interacting with. He would love to have a canine sibling to wrestle with!
Meet Chelsea! This happy, bouncy lady has spent the past several months being an excellent mom to an adorable litter of puppies. Now she is ready to be the star of the show! Chelsea loves everyone she meets and is looking for a family who is excited about helping her fine-tune her teenager manners. She has spent time in a foster home where she perfected the art of cuddling, making her the perfect balance of bouncy fun and sleepy snuggles. Chelsea has gone through a lot of very stressful transitions already in her short life, so she will need a little extra help transitioning into her new home, learning how to navigate living in a home, and learning to be comfortable when alone.
She recently tested positive for a treatable heartworm disease. We're eager to tell you about how our vet team is prepared to support Chelsea and her new family through that treatment.
Tito is a quiet guy looking for a calm, low traffic household to cozy up in. He takes time to warm up to new people, and will ask for attention on his own terms. Once he's feeling relaxed and comfortable, he enjoys some body pats! Transitions are difficult for him, so adopters should be prepared to give extra time and space as he becomes comfortable in a new setting.
Caleb is a big ol' hunk with a side of silly! This two-year-old pitbull mix definitely acts like your stereotypical pitbull; he's goofy, playful and unfailingly social. You won't believe how high his 70lb frame can leap when he's throwing toys around! Caleb is an active dog and needs a chance to frolic or play with toys to keep himself busy. He is very good at self-entertaining and would benefit from enrichment in the home. He also enjoys playing with other dogs, and should meet any potential canine siblings before going home. This smart boy is highly trainable and stays focused when treats are involved. He keeps his kennel clean overnight and is decent at checking his pace on the leash. Caleb does get very exuberant when he plays and may jump, so he would do best with older kids that are okay with his size and energy levels. His new family should keep his world small at first while he adjusts to his new environment and gets comfortable. If you want a happy-go-lucky companion for adventure, check him out!

This beautiful gal is Daisy. She is such a polite lady! During her time here at the shelter, she has made a really nice office buddy for our staff members. Daisy would do best in a quieter neighborhood where she is less likely to see a dog around every corner for walks. Her ideal family will be excited about using positive reinforcement to help her learn how to calmly walk in areas where there may be other dogs. She would do best as the only pet in the home.
