Story

Goop, previously named Dip, is as cute as his name! This gorgeous Russian Blue boy is equal parts gentle sweetheart and brave little explorer. He arrived with his siblings, Dash and Dot, but unfortunately, both of his siblings passed away suddenly from FIP. Goop was diagnosed with the same but survived. Our doctors also believe it’s likely Goop has feline herpes virus, which can cause his eyes to sometimes be weepy, but it’s easily managed with an easy maintenance regimen. He is quiet, kind, and wonderfully polite — he never even needed a lesson about keeping his claws to himself! He’s playful, energetic, and so sweet to his foster siblings. Goop definitely wants other cats in the house! He adores pets and attention but prefers not to be carried too much — this independent little adventurer likes to keep his paws on solid ground. He might take a little time to warm up to you and will definitely be nervous around strangers, but it’s well worth the wait. Looking for a soft gray shadow who will play hard and cuddle sweetly? Goop’s ready to meet you! Goop needs a special adopter, one understanding of his sometimes weepy eyes and nervous demeanor with strangers. And although hopefully this is never the case, he should go to a home prepared financially for the possibility of a FIP relapse. Medication for FIP is now far easier to get and much more affordable, but it’s still a challenging endeavor!

Story

Cow is a gentle, sweet little girl who's still a bit shy. She likes to keep to her cat tree at first, but as she gets comfortable in her surroundings, she'll come down and burrow into a quilt on the bed in her room. She's interested in the resident cat in her foster home too, though she keeps a bit of distance while she gets used to things. Once she settles in, she'll begin sitting next to you for pets and purrs, she can be the cutest little snuggle bug! Cow loves playing with toys and with her brother, Moe, and would love to be adopted alongside him so she can have a forever playmate.

Say hello to Eleanor, a sweet tabby kitten with lots of personality! Give her a feather toy or a ping-pong ball to chase and watch her go, she’s got energy to burn. But underneath all that playfulness is a real snuggle bug who’ll happily curl up with you once the games wind down. Fair warning: she’s extremely food motivated and will do just about anything for a treat! Eleanor is easygoing with other cats too, getting along great with her sister and the resident cats in her foster home. She’s active, outgoing, and loves being picked up and held. Eleanor would be a wonderful addition to any home looking for a friendly, people-loving kitten!

Story

How this pet arrived:Lizzy was brought in by a community member on April 29, 2026.Why this pet is the one for you:Meet Lizzy! Lizzy is a sweet, bashful beauty ready to find her own happy ending! While she's been a bit fearful in care, she is a total star who just needs an adopter who understands her boundaries and body language. She's doing much better in a foster home and her affectionate, friendly side is beginning to blossom. Because Lizzy is a sensitive soul, she's looking for a calm, quieter home with residents 8 years or older and requires a secure carrier for all her VIP travels. Building a bond with Lizzy is all about those low-pressure vibes: hang out nearby, offer some delicious treats and engage in some delicate play to show her you're on her team! With plenty of high and low hiding spots to keep her feeling safe and some extended acclimation time, Lizzy will slowly but surely find her voice and become the spunky companion you've been dreaming of. At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for adoption!Shy/Fearful Cat: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them.
