    Hooray for Mr. Whiskers!!

    It was a very sad day in February when a family came in having to give up their beloved cat. They were devastated (it was a severe health issue of the family members). They had tons of kitty things for him, brushes, cat poles, food, toys and a leash and harness. He was a little chubby and had quite the personality, obviously a very well loved little man!

    This adorable girl came to us as a lost dog back in early March. She was almost full term pregnant and so sweet we named her Jujubee! On March 10th she gave birth to six beautiful puppies all with candy names like their mom; Sugar B, Heath, Sour Patch, Snickers, Violet & Skittles. They grew up fast and before we knew it they all had found their forever homes and only Jujubee was left.

    This adorable Australian Shepherd was brought to the shelter under protective custody due to some unfortunate circumstances with his family. He was eventually surrendered to the shelter and not long after found his new forever home. Joshua and Kathryn came to the shelter with their dog Dash after losing their Border Collie (and Dash's best friend). Dash was lonely and needed someone to pal around with. Hobie was a great match for this awesome family!

    Chloe and Zaza came to the shelter from separate homes but found their FUR-ever home together with a wonderful family on May 9th. Zaza’s people moved away and left her behind so she was brought to the shelter back in February. The staff here instantly fell in love with her unique look.

    Ava was adopted last Saturday by Greg, Suzette and their dog Bruin! They were looking for a long time - what seemed forever to them - to find a Samoyed friend for Bruin when they saw Ava on our website. It was a team effort to make this adoption happen since they live in Orange County! Willow, one of our adoption counselors, was able to coordinate the approval of this family through Samoyed Rescue of Southern California!

    Congratulations to Jilly! Last week we had a celebration, complete with cake, for Jilly's big day! Jilly's adoption was finalized last week.  Doesn't she look cute all dressed up with her pink bows? Tom and Jane have been fostering her for almost a month and decided that it was a good match with their Doxie, Jack, who has warmed up to her nicely! Jilly came in as a stray, horribly matted, and it's hard to believe that this is the same dog!

    SWEETPEAOKEY.jpg

    We have great news!!!! Sweet Pea and Okey have been adopted together by Linda! Okey is 8 and Sweet Pea is 9. They were surrendered by their owner who was ill and couldn't take care of them. They have been here for seven months looking for the perfect home. These two were quite the stars at the shelter with their quirky personalities and strong bond they had between them. We were all so exited to see these two lively seniors get a home of their own! Thank you Linda!!

    Amanda...on the right....has been around here quite a bit lately volunteering and working on a college project. She's been helping getting the word out about all the amazing animals we have available through social media.  We (HSVC staff and volunteers) can't help but fall in love with the animals here at the Shelter and Amanda is no exception. Seems that Roscoe stole her heart.
