Story
DIAMONDDSH black female, 2 years old, straySometimes life is full of good stuff and sometimes it`s very hard. My name is DIAMOND, and I hope all the hard stuff is behind me. I came to the shelter in bad shape, with a wound on my leg, ear mites, and much too skinny for being 2 years old. The staff here has gotten rid of the ear mites, healed my wound and given me as much food as I can handle! And the attention they give me is so sweet, I really can`t get enough of it. If you`ve been waiting for a sweet girl to share your life, let`s meet today and talk about the possibilities!

Story
Dear Adopter,I brought Pipp home as a foster in January of this year. At that point, she had been at the shelter for 10 months. Pipp was already very shy when she first came to the shelter as a 4-month-old. Sadly, the stress of being in a shelter environment became too much. She became even more reserved and eventually shut down completely, refusing human contact.When I brought her home, she remained shut-down and in a freeze state for about a week and a half. Her daily rhythm was messed up for even longer – she was active throughout the night, and asleep for as long as the sun was out.At the week and a half mark, she was finally willing to take Churu from me. This was when we began clicker training. We started with simple target training, with her touching her nose to a target stick. This helped her start to gain some confidence. Eventually, I moved on to training her to “Sit Pretty,” and now, she knows how to jump through a hoop!Pipp wasn’t comfortable with interactive play when she first got here, but it’s now one of her favorite activities. I have different wand toys in the closet in her room, and every time I go in the closet, she will follow me and look at the wall where the wand toys are. “I would like to play, please, Foster Mom!” Let me tell you, SHE. LOVES. TO. PLAY. She’s a mighty hunter, this one.Pipp will also follow me to the closet for her favorite treat in the world – Churu. “Is it time for Churu, Foster Mom?” And yes, it’s always time for Churu. I have never been able to resist “the look.” Pipp is still uncomfortable with human contact, but she will lick Churu off my finger! (Foster Mom Tip: She only likes the Churu brand of lickable treats!)About a month and a half in, Pipp had a major breakthrough. She completely came out of her shell and became friends with my cats. She started meowing, purring, and making biscuits. She ADORES my cats. She loves to nuzzle them and cuddle with them when they sleep. Wait til you see the videos of her and my cat! Insanely cute. Needless to say, Pipp will need a friendly and affectionate cat in her new home to be her very own best friend. It’s a non-negotiable!Just four days before I started writing this letter, Pipp let me know that she was ready to come out of the foster room and explore the rest of the house. Our brave girl has been exploring every nook and cranny that’s available to her. She also got on a couch possibly
