Mammoth I am totally flummoxed as to how I got this name. I am not overweight, I am not an elephant, and I`m not prehistoric. However, I am a 1-year-old, black-and-white male cat, already neutered and litter-box trained. My owner found me and my two littermates as stray kittens. But after one year, she decided she did not want us and surrendered us to the HSHC on October 9. It may not surprise you to learn that I was not given much socialization, education, or playtime in my first home. Therefore, I tend to be nervous and anxious in new situations and with new people. The interviewer lady (IL) tried several times to engage me in a conversation to no avail. But today, when she opened my apartment door, I looked at her from my litter-box room. After she gave me some sweet talk, I sniffed her finger and let her pet me. It felt so good that I started purring and making biscuits. This was a big step in the right direction for me. My medical exam revealed I was nervous, a flight risk, and hesitant to interact. I don`t enjoy being held, but I do love being petted. I will need a lengthy and patient settling-in period when I move into my new forever home, during which I will need gentle guidance and time to adjust at my own pace. 12-10-25

With an open admission policy, a No-Kill philosophy, and more than 3,100 animals crossing our threshold each year, we have still maintained a 98% placement rate over the last 3 years.
This is an amazing feat for any organization…let alone one that takes in some of the most abused, injured and seriously ill animals imaginable.
