Christian is quite famous around this neck of the woods! We just wanted to let everyone know that Christian still hasn’t found a home yet- SUPER strange, since she is the sweetest girl of all sweet girls. She would make the perfect companion for someone who wants a dog in their lap all the time. Christian loves to be in your lap, and will jump up constantly. She loves kisses and just being close to people. When you leave the room, she likes to follow!

You might have heard of Christian! She was missing for two wintry months and is now safely back at the Ark and has two very special pet guardians. Christian is between 4-6 years old, a little Collie Mix who is quite savvy, from Peurto Rico. She is “lista para ir a casa” (ready to go home).

Christian will need a home with a fenced in yard, or potentially other accommodations that would keep her safe. A home visit will be a requirement in Christian’s adoption.

Precious is a young adult kitty who is glowing with little buns in her oven. While it will be a bit before she’s ready to be adopted as she will have to fulfill her motherly duties, we are still accepting applications on this gorgeous and love-able dilute tortie so she can go to a wonderful home as soon as she ready. She deserves it!

Shy Dennis the Menace is looking to go home with you.

We have said this before, but it bears repeating: Some kitties just need more time to adjust, more time to bond, and more time to feel at home. We know his owners are out there, and we hope you can open up your home and heart. Even better, we would love to see Dennis and his best friend Khadgar go home together! They currently share a small community cat room together. Dennis enjoys sleeping under pillows and his buddy Khadgar enjoys sleeping under the sink. They both enjoy being patted and they both are VERY handsome mansomes.

Updates on Ark Operation

Updates on Ark Operation

Hello Dear Friends!

We want to keep everyone in the loop and let you know that moving into 2021, the Ark will continue operating on an appointment-only basis. We ask that folks try and keep their appointments to a half hour or less, so we can continue limiting traffic in and out of the shelter. We are also going to require that applications be submitted and approved prior to making appointments to visit our adoptable pets. We apologize about the changes in operation, however we are doing our best to make sure that staff and public are safe, and that COVID guidelines are being followed. Thank you for understanding!

You can fill out our adoption application online, or print it off and mail it in. If you must come to the shelter to physically fill out an application, we will give you a clipboard and ask that applications be filled out in your vehicle to limit public coming into the building.

We got buns, hun…

Midnight is hand-tamed, friendly, SUPER soft and snuggly.

Favorite past times include eating carrots, playing with plastic balls, and hopping. Midnight was also recently neutered!

He has his little bunny-heart set on going home soon. Please make an appointment to come and meet him soon! Maybe YOU will be the one to adopt him! He HOPS to see you soon.

P.S…did you know that the energizer bunny was recently arrested? He was charged with battery. Ok, ok, enough with the bunny puns. Seriously though:

 

Marko Andre

Marko Andre

Hi everyone! My name is Marko Andre. I’m here to wish you a very happy New Year and to tell you all about myself!

I’m very full of energy and will keep you busy ALL DAY LONG! I recently went home, but was returned shortly after because I was a little too high-energy and I barked at the kitties. Even though I’m a little over a year old, I am still very much a puppy at heart. I like to act crazy, play with toys, and keep you on your toes! I’m also very sweet and need someone with patience who can teach me some manners and love me for who I am. I hope that you call the Ark soon and set up an appointment to come play with me. I have a snaggle tooth and gorgeous eyes that might just melt your heart. Oh, and bring toys.

Harley and Chanel

Harley and Chanel

This two darling dachshunds were brought in from Puerto Rico, after their owner passed away. They will need to be adopted together, as they are very bonded and quite fond of each other. Wow-Opposites really DO attract! Chanel is just about as SWEET as she can be, but Harley is a little on the timid side, sometimes scared and nervous. It will take the right person to adopt these two adults and give them their second chance. Harley has some chocolate brown on her while Chanel is a beauteous gal, all sable and striking black. We are sure it won’t take TOO much time for these girls to make their way into your heart. With a little bit of patience, a well-versed dog owner and a quiet household, anything is possible for these two!
