Additional adoption info

We are often told that our pets have no problem adapting to their new homes, and are very loving and friendly. We believe two factors are important in helping our animals become loving family pets. The first is our home-like atmosphere. The shelter was formerly a family home, and we use no cages or kennels. Our residents are either housed in their own room or have free run of the house, depending on their health and/or temperament. The second factor is the hands-on approach to caring for them. Our animals are held regularly, cuddled and treated with love and respect. We have dedicated volunteers who spend time each week giving special care to the shelter and our guests.
