We were adopted: February 1 – 7, 2021

Posted on Tuesday, February 09, 2021
Be mine? Rose adopted a sweet calico kitty named Callie this week.

Our adoption counselors played Cupid and matched 62 pets with their perfect guardians this past week! Notable adoptions included long-term residents Callie, Bonjour, Corningstone, Ingrid and Mable. Adoption counselor Julia helped matched Rose with 4-year-old Callie and had this to say about the adoption:

“Callie has been in our care since October 2020. She is such a sweet cat, but her shy nature made her timid when it came to meeting potential adopters. When I let Rose meet Callie in her cage space, Callie started rolling over and allowing Rose to pet her. When we transferred Callie into a visiting room, she climbed onto Rose’s lap and started purring. She stayed the whole appointment next to Rose with her head in Rose’s hand. She had a wonderful instant connection with Rose that I have never seen in an adoption before.”

What a purr-fect match! If you are interested in adopting a pet, please fill out an adoption survey and then call 804-521-1307 and leave a voicemail with your contact information. During our phone counseling process, interested adopters will be guided to view pets online while speaking with a counselor. We appreciate our community’s patience and are excited to help families find their perfect match!
