Duncan and Ginger got their Forever Homes!

Woooohoooo! NOTHING makes me happier than finding out one of our long-term animals finally, FINALLY found their forever home! Duncan, the beautiful Pyranese, that's been here over a year now, found his FOREVER HOME! WOOOHOOOO!

And the absolutely WONDERFUL couple that I corresponded with over several days, came in today and spent tons and tons of time with the cats. AND they adopted sweet little Ginger, aka Butterum. I love that cat - she is such a sweetheart and I think they'll really enjoy her. Thank you EVERYONE!

Ivan the Huggable

Ya know, when you first take a squint at Ivan, he looks like he'd take your arm clean off. He just LOOKS mean. Appearances CAN be deceiving however. Ivan is the sweetest, gentlest, laid-back cat I've ever met.

He's definitely an adult, but still likes to play a bit and loves to be held. And he purrs - oh, he loves to purr! When he was hit with the sickness that went around the Shelter, he and I would sit outside on the bench and take in the sunshine. And he'd purr. And he'd just cuddle against my chest and enjoy the attention.

Why is Ivan here? I don't know. Perhaps his owners lost their home, perhaps he got lost in a move, perhaps someone didn't realize what a great cat he is. ALL the cats at the Shelter are now spayed and neutered, including my dear, sweet Ivan. If he was a marshmallow before, he's even more so now.

Look at that face. How could you not fall in love with him?

Happy Days at the Shelter

Lots of good news to be had at Enoch Animal Shelter. Two of the puppies were taken by BAM to foster and find forever homes for, Rascal, the adorable hound was adopted over the weekend, as was Ralphie the Black Lab, Pudge the Wonder Cat and the BEAUTIFUL Seal Point Siamese was taken into Rescue as well.

Pigpen was found covered in oil and grease under a car. After a bath, he looks wonderful!


OH! And our two Senior dogs, Red and Heidi were taken in by Best Friends.


Rocko is a great young dog, that would a perfect family pet!

The Shelter is STILL overflowing with dogs sadly enough and many of them are bunking in pairs, when the kennels really aren't big enough for even 1 dog. We have some great dogs (and cats!) that would LOVE to find homes of their own.

Ginger is a gorgeous young woman!

As mentioned previusly, a huge bout of pink-eye was circulating around the cat house - this happens because of overcrowding. One cat gets sick and they pass it along to all the others. It's distressing, BUT, the antibiotics and the apple cider vinegar are doing the trick. Ginger looks great, as does Ivan the Cuddly. Nothing would help them more than getting adopted into their own Forever Homes. Won't you please pass the word? Our cats and dogs LOVE people!
