JOKER
1 year old mixed breed
Joker is a spirited young pup with a heart full of curiosity and a love for adventure! Rescued from running as a stray, this playful and energetic boy is now ready to find his forever home.
Joker is an explorer at heart—he thrives on discovering new places and enjoys every chance he gets to run, play, and investigate. Whether it’s darting through the woods or zipping around the play yard, Joker’s boundless energy and enthusiasm are sure to keep you on your toes.
A few things to know about Joker:
Escape Artist Alert: Joker is a bit of an escape artist and will need a very secure yard or supervision when outdoors. He’s not a fan of being contained and is always eager to see more of the world - How can we blame him? He knows his next adventure is out there.
Playful and Friendly: He loves playing games and gets along well with other dogs. He’s also okay with cats, though we can conduct further cat testing for serious inquiries.
Active Lifestyle: Joker is a perfect match for an active family or individual who enjoys regular walks and outdoor adventures.
PHAEDRA
9 month old mixed breed
Phaedra is a gentle and playful girl who absolutely loves to run and frolic in our play yard. Her playful nature will bring endless joy to your home, and her loving personality makes her the perfect snuggle buddy for those cozy evenings. Whether she’s chasing after toys or curling up for a cuddle session, Phaedra is always ready to bring a smile to your face. Phaedra is seeking a forever home where she can enjoy plenty of companionship. She would thrive in a family that can spend quality time with her, offering both playtime and affection. She gets along well with other dogs and would likely appreciate having a furry friend or two, though it is not a requirement. Phaedra still needs to be cat-tested, but we’re happy to arrange that for serious inquiries!
Why Phaedra?
Phaedra’s mix of playfulness and gentleness makes her an ideal companion for a variety of families. Her fox-like appearance is just the cherry on top of her already irresistible charm. If you’re looking for a loyal and affectionate dog who will fill your days with laughter and love, Phaedra is the one for you.
SHADOW
1.5 year old great pyrenees/lab mix
Shadow is a 1.5-year-old, 70lb sweetheart who we believe is a Great Pyrenees/Lab mix. This playful girl loves zooming around our play yard and gets along wonderfully with both dogs and cats!
Shadow's past is a heartbreaking story. For those of you who remember our sorely abused Pomeranian mix, Asha, Shadow came from the same home. Asha was a pup who was caught on video being heavily abused and beaten by her owners before she was surrendered into rescue. Shadow was one of Asha’s doggy siblings who were unable to be removed from the home at the time. While we can't say for sure what Shadow endured in her previous home, what we do know is that Shadow was exploited as a way for her previous owners to make money. Her previous owners used her supposed medical issues—like hip dysplasia, broken limbs, and seizures—to scam for donations for vet care that she never received.
However, after a thorough check-up by our vet, Shadow is showing no signs of the ailments claimed by her past owners. She has not had any seizures in the past couple of weeks after leaving her previous home. Her health is looking great.
Shadow deserves a fresh start and a loving forever home where she can thrive. She’s an amazing, friendly, and playful girl who will bring joy to any family. She’ll continue to receive veterinary care to ensure she’s ready for adoption, and we’re confident she’s going to make a wonderful companion.
Adoptable Adult Cats
BOHEMIAN
5 year old male
Bonded pair with Rhapsodie
FIV+
Bohemian, also known as Bobo, is a very friendly and affectionate guy! He takes a little time to warm up to new humans, but once he knows you, he is so affectionate. He loves his sister, Rhapsodie, and does well with other cats.
Bohemian's previous owner fell on hard times and could no longer care for the kitties. She let us know that his name came from his moustache that resembles Freddie Mercury's.
He loves catnip and playing with toys.
Although he is FIV+, he can safely live with other friendly cats. Learn more about FIV before discounting this sweetheart!
ELMIRA
2 year old female
Elmira came to us as a stray with a litter of kittens. Her kittens are currently weaned and in foster care, so Elmira is ready to find a home to call her own!
Elmira is a super sweet girl who loves being petted. It may take her a few minutes to warm up, but once she does, she immediately starts purring. Her fur is soft as silk, too!
Elmira would do well with other cats and cat-respectful kids. She just doesn’t like when people push her boundaries, like all other animals, so she would do best with kids who are aware of cat’s boundaries. We are unsure of dogs.
EVERETT
2 year old male
*In foster care
Everett is currently placed in a foster home for socialization. He would love to find a very patient and calm adopter or long term foster family. He is a fearful kitty, and unfortunately we don't know much about his background. When he first arrived, we were able to pet him, but he was clearly petrified. Now that he is not paralyzed with fear, he makes it very clear he does not want to be touched. Right now, Everett makes a great silent roommate. He gets along okay with other cats, but the other cats in his foster home don't like him. He is interested in the laser pointer and climbing cat towers, but struggles with fear and lack of confidence when humans are present. We are still working to find what motivates Everett. He needs a very special and patient home.
Everett had one moment of inexplicable affection where he laid on his foster mom’s lap for about 5 minutes. He sought out affection, but hasn’t done so since. We know Everett has it in him to be a sweet boy with the right placement.
GUINEVERE
1 year old female
Guinevere is a rollie pollie lover girl who is finally ready to find a forever home! Guin came to us with a wound on her rear end, as well as numerous wounds to her abdomen and groin areas. We are not sure what caused these wounds, but she is finally healing well and is cleared to find her forever family.
Guinevere is young, just barely a year old, and already a mother due to being dumped outdoors as an unfixed female. Her kittens are weaned and currently in foster care. Due to Guin's injuries, she needed to be away from her kittens so they could not cause further damage.
Guinevere is comfortable around other cats. She would do well with cat-respectful kids. We are unsure of dogs. She is truly a wonderful kitty that would make a great companion!
IRELIA
2 year old female
Information coming soon.
KAZU
2 year old male
Kazu is one of 7 kitties we brought in from deplorable living conditions. Kazu is a shy guy, but enjoys pets and scritches once he gets to know you! He enjoys napping under his bed, yes... under. He is a goofy guy! Kazu loves other cats and is very reliant on other kitty friends for confidence and comfort. He would do best in a calm home.
After a few weeks here, Kazu began coming out of his shell more. He loves to spend time with people, but enjoys it even more when he has some of his trusted cat friends around to remind him that he can be a secure and confident boy! He enjoys lounging in a cat tower and basking in the sunshine. Chasing mousey toys is one of his favorite activities. With the humans he knows and trusts, he is a total lap cat. Kazu just needs someone to give him a chance in a home, as the shelter setting is overwhelming for him.
MIRIAM
9 year old female
Miriam is a gorgeous and snuggly older-gal. She is seeking a long-term foster home, or a foster to adopt home, dependent on her medication and needs.
Miriam was found years prior as a stray. After going through a TNR program, Miriam made her way to us. We discovered a mass in her abdomen, being a large hairball. Miriam is on a daily medication to assist with hairballs/vomiting. With this affordable medication, she is able to be a totally normal cat! Miriam was in a foster home for the past year, but due to her foster's declining health, she is in need of new placement. As a foster through WOASH, we will cover the expense of her medication, unless a family should choose to adopt her and take on this care on their own.
Miriam is very docile. She like to lounge around and be petted. She will sometimes play with toys, especially if catnip is involved, but prefers to sprawl out on your lap. Miriam also loves treats! She gets along great with other cats.
MOUSE
3 year old female
Mouse is super affectionate and adorable fluff ball! She is friendly with everyone she meets. Mouse’s favorite thing in the world is being petted, but a close second is rolling around in catnip. Mouse is great with cat-respectful humans of all ages. She is tolerant of other cats, but doesn't prefer to be around them. She would be happiest as the only kitty in her home, but especially not with other female cats. We are unsure of dogs.
NALA
1 year old female
Information coming soon.

5 year old female
Bonded pair with Bohemian
FIV+

Rhapsodie's previous owner fell on hard times and could no longer care for the kitties. She let us know that she called her Rhapsodie with a unique spelling to go with Bohemian.
Although she is FIV+, she can safely live with other friendly cats. Learn more about FIV before discounting this sweetheart!
ROSIE
8.5 year old female
Rosie is one of the most affectionate kitties we've ever met... with people, that is! Rosie loves to be petted, curl up on laps, and snuggle all day long. She also enjoys rolling in catnip, eating treats, and using her cardboard scratch pad.
Rosie would thrive in a calm home where she can be the center of your world. She would do well with older children/teens. Rosie needs a home with no other animals. She is a people only kind of cat.
SALLY
1 year old female
Sally is a super loving young lady who was found as a stray with her kittens. Her kittens are currently weaned and in foster care, so Sally is ready to find a home!
Sally is about 1 year old, certainly not old enough to already have 3 month old kittens. She is affectionate with people, yet also very docile and gentle. Sally gets along with other kitties and cat-respectful humans. We are unsure of dogs.
SLURPEE
1 year old male
FIV+
Slurpee is a handsome man who came to us on 7/11! He had been roaming the streets for months prior to his finder being able to bring him to us. He is so friendly and affectionate. He will flop over and roll around for petting. He is also a very curious and brave boy. Slurpee does well with other cats and cat-respectful children. We are unsure of dogs. Slurpee is FIV+, but that is okay! FIV+ cats can safely live with other positive or negative cats, or on their own. Read more about FIV and come give this sweetheart a chance.

Jenny has blossomed into the sweetest girl! She loves laying in hut-like cat beds and on cat towers. She really enjoys butt scritches and laying in your lap. Jenny would thrive with another cat friend in her home.
CHICAGO
5 month old female
Chicago was found as a stray, scared girl with her sister, Illinois. These girls are on the timid side, as they had a rough past on the streets, being injured and malnourished. Chicago would thrive in a calm home with other cat friends. She needs an owner who is patient and willing to give her time to warm up. Once she does, she is such a love bug!

Luka and his sister, Lenelle, are a bonded pair. They were found as stray kittens with a terrible case of roundworms. After numerous treatments, they are doing much better!

DJ is a special girl who came to us as a stray with her brother, Grant. DJ and Grant were feral kittens and went through multiple foster homes to find a best match to work with their personalities and socialize with them.
DJ is still a nervous girl, but has grown so much with her foster. She is easily motivated by string toys and playtime. She allows petting on her own terms. She is still working to build her trust and confidence.
DJ is captivated by other cats and requires another friendly cat in her home. Other cats help her feel more secure and trusting of people. DJ will thrive in a calm and patient home that is willing to give her all of the time and love she deserves!

NEW YORK CITY (Nyc)
4 month old male
New York City is a small but mighty boy. He came to us underweight in comparison to his sister, but is doing so well. We like to call him Nyc (pronounced like Nick) as a nickname. Nyc is the son to Guinevere and brother to Misha. His foster mom's niece lives in NYC, so he was named as a support to her! Nyc likes to play with toys and lounge in a cozy bed. Although Misha and NYC are siblings, they can be adopted together or separate as long as they have another cat friend in their future home.
CABBIT
4 month old female
Cabbit is a super friendly and fun little girl! She was found as a stray in someone's yard. The foster saw she had long, rabbit like legs and she was hopping around, so she became Cabbit for Cat-Rabbit. She loves everybody she meets. She doesn't mind being held and snuggled, unless it's play time and she has the zoomies! Cabbit is comfortable with cats, dogs, and kids.
