“Here’s a picture of Cowboy, now known as King Louie. He’s doubled in size and is still super cute. We love him.
“He’s King because he has four cats and 18 chickens to take care of.
“I think you all are the best. It was so awesome, the best experience!”

Come Sail Away with Styx!
Styx ADORES toys. In fact, he's a bit of a hoarder. He will merrily collect every toy available, moving them to his bed one by one, until he is King of All The Things.

Now that daylight saving time has ended, please keep in mind that wildlife doesn't consult a clock.
More of us will be driving during the times the critters have come to believe they are safe.
Let’s stay safe out there, everyone!

With that soda can for scale, you can see that Reuben is pretty teeny.
We predict an adult weight of 20-25 pounds. He has some dachshund-ish features with his sturdy build and kinda stubby legs.

As we all start decorating for spooky season, please reconsider using artificial spiderwebs outdoors.
They may look delightfully creepy, but they're a known hazard for birds and other wildlife.
The owl pictured here was caught for several hours and ultimately saved.

"This is Noodle, we adopted her with her sister, who we named Soup, in May of 2023.
"Both Noodle and her sister have been an integral part of our family since adopting, snuggling our daughter and giving countless laughs at how silly they can be.”

“Here is Teacup (now Skye) in a quiet moment. Five days post adoption she snuggles, sleeps with me, loves the cat tree, her toys, and gets the zoomies twice a day. One could easily say she is home. Thank you.” 🧡🐾

“Prada is now Lily Rose (Rosie). I think she is settling in just fine! Lots of attention and she's a purring machine!
“Didn't know how much we needed her!! We are sooo glad we got her!” 🧡🐾

In a word, Colt is smol.
What is he? He's clearly a mix of All The Tiny Things with a dash of gremlin, of course. (Water bottle photo for ridiculous scale.)

Volunteer Kathleen is one of our very best pet photographers.
It takes a team and a whole lot o’ work to create the pics that capture our pets’ personalities. We should share the outtakes sometime — they can be pretty hilarious!

"We are so happy we adopted Rhino and Milky Way (formerly Hermes and Macadamia). They snuggle, wrestle and bring our family so much joy! They have been besties since we brought them home, as you can see in the picture.
"Thank you for helping us bring them home."

Gorgeous five-month-old Rosie has great big ear tufts, which might indicate there’s some Maine Coon in her genes.
Rosie is getting along well with other cats here, both young and old.

“Thank you for doing all you do. Here's our newly adopted Vans — now Damon, a.k.a. Squeaks — quickly bonding with our cat we adopted last year.
“She showed Damon how the litter box works, and is teaching him grooming skills.”

Fox came into our care as a three-day-old orphan, and was lovingly bottle-raised in one of our volunteer foster homes.
As you can see, he’s absolutely stunning and has markings that suggest he is part Snowshoe.

We were told by the person who brought them to us that these puppies are border collie/rat terrier mixes — a very unusual combination!
Personality-wise, they are friendly and playful and do All The Things that happy puppies do.

Frenchie absolutely adores people! This little squish has personality plus, and will amuse you endlessly.

A pair of kittens is ALWAYS better than a single.
We believe so strongly that two kittens are better than one that we reduce the fee on the second behbeh when you take home a pair. We promise you won't regret it.

Brothers Oscar and Archie are 11 weeks old. They’re ridiculously adorable scruffalumps, likely a mixture of many breeds. They have extremely short legs that are bowed (Basset? Dachshund?), hair that’s simultaneously fuzzy, shaggy, and wiry.

Volunteers Kathleen and Cathy had a blast Tuesday attending Story Time at the Murphys Volunteer Library with an assortment of our kittens.
The morning kicked off with stories about pets, and then it was time for the attendees to meet their fluffy guests.

“Calaveras Humane Society, meow I help you?”
It’s all hands (paws?) on deck when we’re busy! Kitten Yara pitched in on the phones last week when things were crazy. 🧡🐾

All three girls we transferred in from the hoarding case with 60+ dogs in one house were adopted today. We were delighted to meet such kind folks who are willing to give them a fresh start. 🧡🐾

Abby is about four months old. Her genes are super-cool and very unique: Dad was a purebred boxer, mom was a purebred heeler. So her DNA is roughly divided 50/50 between those two breeds.
