My story

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

I am bonded with my best friend, Barracuda, we need to be adopted together.

These beautiful girls arrived at Homeward Animal Shelter together. Quite shy and under socialized. Both have since decided humans are a good thing! They will require patience to adjust in their forever home, but these delightful girls are worth it! Their day consists of eating, playing (with each other, with their fosters and foster cats), wrestling, napping and then repeating multiple times throughout the day. Being they are still kittens; they do have a lot of energy and curiosity to keep themselves and you entertained! They are definitely food motivated. Churus are their favorite treats and the way to their hearts Barracuda really likes attention and pets, though at times, she can still be a bit skittish. Almost every evening, though, she finds her way to the couch and sits on or next to her foster, purring and soaking up as much love as she can! Latke has taken more time to earn our trust, but she now is much more receptive to pets and will at times, even “lean” into our affections. Always curious about us, if she is not with Barracuda, she is usually in the same area as we are. She too, is still a bit skittish at times, but is getting more comfortable every day. Though these girls may take some extra time to adjust, they are so worth it and will add joy, laughter and love to your home!!

Go meet their pets

Our shelter is in north Fargo, near the old Yunker's Children's Museum, located just off of University Dr. on 28th Ave. N. We have open house hours from 4-7pm Tuesday-Friday, and 2-6pm on Saturdays. We have adoption events throughout the year, and you can find more information about those on our website at www.homewardonline.org or our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/HomewardAnimalShelter.

More about this shelter

We are a small shelter that rescues pets from local impounds whose time is up, and would otherwise be euthanized. We only have 9 dog kennels and 26 cat kennels; as many of 80% of the animals in our care are located in foster homes throughout the community at any time. We are very limited on space within our shelter and often, we can't take in owner surrenders, but will do our best to help give guidance about rehoming pets.

We offer several services besides adoption, including microchip clinics and pet-friendly rental housing listings.

We are the only shelter in the FM area that rescues both cats and dogs, so without our help, hundreds of dogs and cats would be euthanized each year in local pounds.
