My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

How this pet arrived:
Miso was brought in by his previous owner on January 17, 2026.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Miso is a devoted mama's boy who arrived at our shelter alongside his beloved mother, Spot #978009. These two are inseparable and must be adopted together to ensure their emotional well-being and comfort. Sweet Miso is naturally shy around new people and will need patience as he adjusts to his new environment. With his mother by his side, he'll gradually build confidence and trust in his new home. To help Miso and Spot thrive, we recommend providing a safe, quiet space where they can acclimate at their own pace. Facilitating bonding through proximity-keeping them close together during the transition-along with gentle, delicate play will help build trust and security. Multiple hiding places at various heights, such as low shelves, cat trees, and enclosed beds, will give them the sense of security they need to feel comfortable exploring their new surroundings. Miso will do best in a calm, quiet household without young children or boisterous dogs. A home that respects his shy nature and allows him time to adjust will help him blossom into a loving, confident companion.

More about this shelter

San Diego Humane Society, an open-admission shelter, is creating a more humane world by inspiring compassion and advancing the welfare of animals and people. Our lifesaving safety net has helped San Diego become the largest city in the U.S. to keep healthy and treatable shelter animals from being euthanized. We are a private, independent, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or society for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

With campuses in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona and San Diego, we provide animal services for 14 cities within San Diego County. We not only care for 50,000 animals in our communities but also share the expertise we have gained through our innovative programs with shelters nationwide so they can save more lives in their communities.

While our influence is expanding nationally, our top priority is meeting the needs of San Diego. We provide exceptional care for all animals through world-class veterinary medicine, shelter and most of all: love.
