Meet Prowler, a sweet German Shepherd with a heartbreaking story. Seven-year-old Prowler grew up in a very loving home. His owner, a single mother of four children and first responder, faced many challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. Unable to give him the care he required, Prowler’s owner took him to live with her mother in Santa Paula in July of 2020. He resided there happily until mid-January of 2021 when her mother lost her home during a high wind storm. Realizing she no longer had a place for herself to live, let alone a dog, her mother was forced to surrender Prowler to our shelter to find a new home.

This girl is so gorgeous, it's no wonder why we named her Sunset! Senior cat Sunset is an 8-year-old gray tabby who has been searching for her forever home since mid-October. She is full-grown, but we like to call her a "forever kitten" because she is smaller than most adult kitties. Sunset can be shy at times, but she is very affectionate when she is comfortable with you. She gets along well with other cats and would be an excellent companion for anyone looking for a sweet, cuddly senior cat.
