A regular look at some furry friends who need a good home.
Gemma is 2-3 years old and was rescued two years ago by a family. But everything changed on May 6, 2012, when her owner was killed in a motorcycle accident. Gemma is a loving, fun dog that does well with children and has been a wonderful pet, but the family has too much to deal with and need to find her a new home.  She is housebroken, has been spayed, up to date on shots and ready to find someone to take care of her. Please help us find her a home. Contact Katie at geniessek@yahoo.com.

They do everything they can to trap the cats and get them fixed before babies arrive but they have a small litter that needs help and that they would love to see grow up safely in good homes. If they can't place them they will let them just grow up in the feral colony and they deserve better than that.  "One of the black …

Charming 15 lb., 5-7 year old Braydon came into a county shelter with deep punctures and no owner to be found. Seeing what a gem this boy was, his foster plucked him up and took him home, only to find he is smart, funny and entirely lovable!
