Kindness in the Classroom

Joyce’s sixth graders at Hillside Middle School are such kind kids! This 6th grade class wanted to help out the resident animals in the shelter. To do this, they worked with their teacher in order to create lots of wonderful blankets to donate. We want to say a huge thank you to Joyce and her 6th grade class for their kindness and hard work. Thanks to you, our animals are now extra comfortable and cozy here at HSHV.

Echo finds her forever home

I adopted Echo in January after the loss of my beloved cat of 16 years. My previous cat could never be replaced, but I wanted a new furry friend to love. Although she took some time to adjust to her new surroundings, she quickly became very sweet and friendly. She loves to play with shadows or a laser pointer. She has an impressive vocabulary of murps and mews that she delights us with; she’s always chatting with us. She also loves to snuggle with us at night. We are completely enamored with her and couldn’t imagine our lives without her!

Mia’s Brilliant Birthday

Mia is definitely a kind kid. Mia celebrated her birthday with HSHV and wanted to help out her furry friends at the shelter. Instead of asking for birthday gifts, Mia instead asked for donations to help celebrate her special day. She helped to donate lots of food, toys, blankets, and other wonderful gifts to the animals. Thank you for your kindness, Mia! We wish you a very happy birthday, and the animals do as well!

Isabella is such a kind kid! Isabella adopted her cat from HSHV and loves her very much. She was inspired by her love for her pet and wanted to help the other animals at the shelter. In order to do this, she decided to use her birthday money to buy gifts for the animals instead. She did this by donating food, bags, dog shampoo, and many other wonderful donations to HSHV. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity on your birthday, Isabella. Your love for animals inspires us all!

Super Scout Troop #40785

Troop #40785 is a very kind troop indeed. After completing the Three Cheers for Animals Journey and learning more about animals, this Daisy troop wanted to help the animals in the shelter. Together they used fabric markers to decorate bandanas in order to help the dogs at HSHV draw attention from adopters. They also wrote super kind notes to the dogs as well. Thank you so much for your kindness and creativity, Troop #40785. Not only do we appreciate you, but the dogs do as well!
