Story
Meet Yoosol💝 💙 Update Account: @dongoyang_2 1. Health Status • Neutered: Yes 2. Rescue Story Yoosol appeared one day at the construction site of ADogs’ new shelter. The site was filled with heavy equipment and buzzing with dangerous activity. But Yoosol ran up to people meowing and rubbing against the director’s leg, as if saying, “Please take me with you!” The director couldn’t leave him behind, and that’s how he was rescued. 3. Personality and Behavior • With People: He likes people, but he may hiss at strangers if approached too quickly. Once familiar, he will show affection by snuggling and meowing sweetly. Get to know him, and you’ll fall for his charm. • With Cats: Gets along very well with other cats at the shelter. • Separation Anxiety: None. He doesn’t cling to people and usually seeks attention only when he wants something. • Litter: Uses tofu litter. • Grooming: Not a fan of nail trimming but tolerates it with treats. He loves brushing, but struggles a bit during baths. • Play: He loves fishing toys and balls, and can play for 2–3 hours non-stop! • Car Rides: No motion sickness during short trips. 4. Special Notes • Can do the “sit” command when treats are involved! • He’s food motivated and may try to eat human food, so supervision is needed. • Doesn’t like his belly or backside touched much. • Be cautious—he may try to eat treats with the plastic wrapper still on! 💌Other💌 * Knows how to sit if there are treats involved! * Loves food so much that he sometimes tries to eat human food. Caution is necessary.

Story
Meet Buttercup🧁 Buttercup had long been a stray cat roaming near Jeonju Shelter, receiving food here and there. One day, she was found with a severely injured back leg. Because of her timid nature, she was difficult to catch and hid under the office building for a long time, avoiding human contact. After much effort, ADogs rescued her, and she became a beloved companion at the office. However, with Jeonju Shelter now facing closure, Buttercup needs a new forever home. • With People: Due to her disability, she doesn’t actively seek affection but enjoys being held and sometimes licks her caregivers. • With Dogs: She doesn’t interact much with dogs but doesn’t get into conflicts either. • With Cats: She gets along well with her feline companion #ADogsCheese. • Separation Anxiety: She rests comfortably on her bed or cat tower when alone. • Potty Training: She cannot urinate by herself and requires regular manual bladder expression. • Litter Type: Uses tofu litter. ❗Health Status❗ • Due to delayed treatment, her injury became severe, resulting in amputation of her left hind leg and tail. Despite this, she is now active enough to play and move around comfortably. • She is unable to urinate on her own, so manual bladder expression is needed at least twice a day (morning and evening). More frequent care is ideal. If urine volume decreases significantly, she may require a hospital visit.

Story
✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK/EWR💟 Meet Halli💗 Halli was rescued along with her sibling #AdogsGally. Their mother was a stray cat who used to eat near our center. Sadly, after giving birth, she passed away from FIP (feline infectious peritonitis). Left alone, Halli and Galli were urgently rescued and brought to safety. * With People: Doesn’t hide or run away from strangers. With familiar people, she expresses affection by staying close and occasionally purring or showing her belly. I's a charming little flirt! Lately, she's become more vocal and affectionate, approaching with soft meows. Never hisses and is very gentle, even during vet visits. * With Dogs: Is not fond of dogs. Won’t attack but may cry or show signs of stress around them. * With Cats: Used to get along well with her sibling Gally. Currently living as a solo cat, she tends to be very wary of unfamiliar cats. * Hygiene: Loudly protests during baths but tolerates them. Is calm during brushing sessions. Doesn’t enjoy nail trimming, but if done quickly, she handles it well. Is very sensitive about her anal area — this part requires gentle care. Tolerates daily toothbrushing, even though she doesn’t like it much. * Doesn’t cry much, but when she does, it's usually to express affection with sweet little "meows." * Is gentle-natured but full of playful energy. Will sit on your lap but also enjoys her independence and can be alone comfortably. Recently, her affectionate side has really blossomed. * Loves hunting games, especially anything with a mouse-tail toy or fishing pole style wand toys. Is food-motivated and occasionally shows interest in human food, so supervision is necessary. * Is afraid of crinkly noises like plastic bags. * Really dislikes being touched near her anal area — caution needed there. ❗Health Condition❗ * Spayed. * Microchipped. * Used to overgroom, but her condition has greatly improved. However, potential allergies are suspected, so ongoing observation is recommended. * Occasionally has coughing spells, so she needs monitoring to ensure it doesn’t get worse.

Story
Meet Gigi🖤🤍 💙 Gigi's Update Account: @ziziii0113 1. Health Condition * Spayed. 2. Rescue Story * Gigi was saved right before being slaughtered from a dog meat farm in Gongdeok, Gimje. At the time of rescue, she was confined to a cage, hidden under a cloth. After discovering she remained in a nearby freezer, rescuers believe she was likely next in line to be slaughtered. Fortunately, she was saved in time and is now living safely in her foster home. 3. Basic Information * With People: Is naturally shy and cautious around strangers. Feels comfortable enough to bare her tummy and relax with familiar caregivers. Comes next to them when bored. Is still a little uncomfortable with pets or being picked up, but can do a nose greeting. * With Cats: Coexisted peacefully with other cats without any issues at our center. * Hygiene: Is still fearful of human touch, having a hard time in accepting it. To help manage her claws, multiple scratching posts have been placed throughout her space. Is being lightly brushed with a brush she is comfortable with. * Personality: Is timid and very cautious, but generally well-behaved. * Has a habit of scratching textured wallpaper (especially those with a rough, bumpy surface), so caution is needed. * Is particularly fearful of objects or hands moving toward her face. Gets extremely stressed at the veterinary clinic and needs to be sedated for examinations. After a visit to the vet, she is so distressed that she refuses to eat for three days.

Story
Kitty is a gorgeous Torbie (Tortoiseshell Tabby!) with an orange paw! She is hilarious, quirky, playful and clingy! She loves to play fetch and leave gifts at your bedroom door overnight. She is just the most wonderful little cat with a sad history. Her family that had her since she was a kitten fed her a horrible diet and limited her activity- these conditions led to her developing bladder stones which required surgery to remove. When the vet told them she needed surgery, they took her home and brought her to the shelter where she immediately went on the euthanasia list. Luckily, the vet found out and pulled her. They performed the surgery, put her on a prescription diet, and called us!  Kitty is thriving in foster care. Yes she is on a prescription diet but please don't let that stop you from getting to know her. We will work with you and so will her vet. She is an amazing cat who deserves a second chance but no one seems to want to give it to her! We know she will thank you by leaving all her mousie toys at your door!September 15, 2025, 10:31 pm

Story
Meet super cute SANJORI! BONDED with INK! This adorable guy is approximately 1 pound and 7 weeks old, as of July 12, 2025. His sweet and happy energy will fill your home with joy. SANJORI doesn't seem to mind the other dogs in his foster home. And, as you can see from the video, loves his little foster brother, INK, who is also available for adoption. SANJORI has not been cat tested with other cats or kid tested, but he is young enough to socialize. SANJORI is a is a curious and intelligent little guy. He will make you smile every day. ~ Here is what SANJORI's loving foster writes about SANJORI & INK. "They are active and very playful. They like to play with marbles, go in and out of the tunnel, stuffed animals, and small things. They like to climb and jump from one side to the other. INK is somewhat wild and plays a little rough with SANJORI, and SANJORI lets him. What they like most is playing with each other. After their playtime, they have their calming moments. They like to play with me and climb on my legs. They don't have direct contact with other people except when they've been to the vet. Although they do see several people every day, they might be a little shy at first. They let themselves be touched, but they're not that crazy about being picked up and staying on my lap for a while. They're a little afraid of the vacuum cleaner or loud noises.• They use the litter box (with newspapers, not litter because it makes a mess). They eat well; they're always hungry! They're good kitties!" ~ We have more cute and funny videos and photos. Please email us and we are happy to share. If you're interested in making SANJORI a part of your family, please fill out an application on our website or send us an email with any questions. We can't wait to hear from you!
