My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Shadow is a sweet girl who is looking for a home where she can get plenty of love and attention. She had a rough start to life, living outside in the country by herself, where she learned to hunt rodents and to stay far away from people. When she got sick and could no longer take care of the kittens she had hidden in a patch of blackberries, she bravely came and asked for human help. Now, healthy and happy after successfully raising her kittens, she is ready to find a home where she can settle down as a housecat. Shadow loves attending Zoom meetings, playing with toys, getting pets, eating treats, and hanging out with people. She also has excellent litter box habits. She would love to be your security cat, keeping rodents and other cats far away from your home. After her traumatic summer, Shadow may need some time and patience to warm up to new people. She does not like other cats, but may be ok with dogs after a slow and careful introduction. Currently she likes to show affection with love bites, so she may not be the best fit for a house with very young children. However, she is easy to handle, and doesn’t even mind dressing up or taking medicine, so hopefully with some guidance she can learn to show her love more appropriately. Shadow has shown incredible bravery and perseverance in her short life so far, and after taking a chance with humans, she deserves to have someone take a chance with her.

Website notes: Updated animal data is sent to the website as frequently as possible. Be sure to refresh the adoption pages in your browser for the latest information. Profiles of available pets are displayed on the available for adoption pages (Dogs and Cats). All information we have concerning an animal’s temperament and health is included on their profile.
Meet the animals and an Adoption Counselor
Once you’ve found an animal (or two!) that you’re interested in adopting, please email us at info@ofosa.org to set up a meet and greet with the foster family who is taking care of that pet. All pets have received an examination and assessed for any health or possible behavioral concerns to the extent possible while in our care.
REQUIREMENTS: All members of the family along with any other dogs must be present to meet the new animal to make sure that everyone is compatible! Dogs must not live as outdoor pets and all animals are REQUIRED to be spayed or neutered. Certain breeds will not be adopted to apartment dwellers. We also reserve the right to refuse to place an animal in a home without a fenced in back yard. We adopt our animals based on a first come, first qualified basis. Our main concern is to match our animals with the most ideal home, the decision is based on many different factors.
Complete the adoption
If you so choose, you are able to take the pet home on the same day that you first meet them. When you’ve found a great match, it’s time to complete the adoption process! You’re welcome to ask our volunteers or fosters questions about training and for tips on helping your new pet adjust to your home.
Placing Pets on Hold: We do not place animals on hold. We adopt out on a First Come, First Qualified basis.
Medical or Behavior Consults: If the pet you’re interested in has any medical conditions, we will arrange pre-adoption consultations with our medical / clinic staff so you know what to expect.
