Back in November, we had to say goodbye to our bestest boy of 14 years. We knew we wanted to bring another dog into our family and we had our sights set on the summer. Then the summer became the spring. Spring soon became the New Year and before we knew it we found ourselves falling in love with the toothy grin of Poppy. She joined our pack, now Kairi, instantly connected with her German Shepard big sister Khaleesi, and fell in love with her new kitty brother and sister, Rooney and Hobbes (also HSHV adoptees!).

We first got Owen and it was love at first sight. He was the first missing piece we found and we were so happy and excited to get him home.

Since we got him he was less than 2 pounds and really small and he’s now bigger than our full grown cat at 8 months old! He loves the outside and water strangely enough. He loves running in the snow and bothering his sister! Oh and car rides as well loves those. He’s our adventure cat! Colin Bridgerton now Kylo

After a lifetime of being a dedicated “cat lady” we sadly lost our last kitty in January 2024 and the house was SO EMPTY! We had talked for years of getting a dog once the kitties were gone.

The first thing I saw were THE EARS, then the button eyes, we

I lost my cat the night before, which was so hard I instantly folded the next day and needed a buddy to spend my life with. So I showed up with my family to try and see if any of the cats at the shelter would take to me, or simply show interest in me. When going around I noticed a kitty who was sitting at the back of her cadge, and she started to chirp at me. Once I came over she jumped down to rub up against the bars. I asked to visit with her and the first

I got a cat named Bing, who I got for my third birthday. on November 7th, he passed away at 17.5 years old. I’ve had him my entire life!

My mom rescued Bingy when he was 2 months old from the humane society of huron valley & he lived a great life. and i miss him very much. But on Friday, I got to go pick up my new kitten whom i’ve named Boon. He is beautiful, a longhair cat
