It is hard to believe it has only been two weeks since we adopted Bear (aka Corn Fritter). He settled into our home immediately and started sleeping in bed with me his first night home. Bear is very friendly and loves to be around “his” people. He comes running to the door when I get home from work and greets me with a chirp. We all love him and are glad he is now a part of our family! Corn-fritter now Bear

I visited HSHV with my mom without the intention of finding a kitty of my own. I was visiting with some cats in a different room from my mom when she came and told me I had to come see this cat (Stevie) right away. The moment I saw Stevie, I instantly started crying. His markings resembled my childhood cat that had passed about a year prior and I was still having a difficult time coping with that loss. However, it wasn’t only the resemblance that drew me to him. I instantly felt a connection and knew I had to

We adopted Dally a couple of months ago. He was owner surrendered due to aggressive behavior. It turns out, he is all bark and no bite. He is just very protective of those he loves. His number one job is patrolling our fence line to make sure no danger is lurking. He takes this job very seriosly, alerting us to the slightest commotion, noise, the wind blowing… 😄 He has settled in nicely, loves his brother Georgie and his new sister, Rue. He likes my husband but loves me fiercely. We all adore him and are happy he’s home!! Thank

I went into HSHV knowing I wanted to adopt an older cat, and when I met Suki I knew she was the perfect kitty companion for me! (I may have sobbed at the front desk when I brought her adoption card up). When I brought her home, she immediately started strutting around the house, meowing at everything, and even joined me on the couch for some cuddles on our first day together! It’s been a few days now and Suki has really made herself at home. She loves to sleep in bed with me at night and we have lots

Our Emergency Rescue team is experiencing the usual high volume of summer rescue calls: helping ducklings stuck in storm drains, squirrels in car engines, skunks in window wells, foxes hit by cars, birds caught in fishing line. But the most heart-breaking incidents involve traps, and we may begin seeing a lot more of them.
