My story

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

Hi, I’m Herbert!

I’m a total snuggle bug and love affection—pets, belly rubs, head scratches… I’m here for it all! I’m happiest when I’m close to my people, whether that’s cuddling on the couch or curling up in a warm lap for one of my legendary naps.

Treats are also one of my love languages. Hand me a lick tube and I’ll be your best friend for life!

I’m okay with some cats, but I can be a little unsure at first. Depending on how they respond to me, I might hiss or growl, though I’ve done pretty well with most of the cats here at the shelter. I have met a few dogs and didn’t like them, so I would do best in a dog-free home—either as your only pet or possibly with the right cat.

One of my favorite pastimes is sitting by the window, watching the world go by and trying to catch the birds that fly past. It’s very important work!

If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion who loves cuddles and keeping you company, I might just be your perfect match!

More about this shelter

Animals Are Our Mission

Over 1,100 animals pass through our doors every year. Did you know that the average cost to get our animals ready to be adoptable is roughly $350 per animal? That is because we require our adoptables to be spayed/neutered and fully vaccinated before adopting out.

Population control and disease management are issues in our community that we are working hard to resolve. Your donations help ensure we can continue our mission.

We have an amazing team of hard working staff caring for our animals 7 days a week. They are supported by a group of engaged board members that are focused on bettering our organization.
