Patrick

We adopted Patrick yesterday. We’ve dubbed him Dewey. He’s got a wonderful temperment, very social and vocal, lots of whirring noises and demure meows. He seems to have acclimated very quickly. There was no interruption in his eating or potty routine. He has his own new toys and space (cage) with a towel from the shelter, in his own room, for now. We have an older lady, Missy, a 7 year old Bengal. We are introducing slowly. She is well aware of his presence but he seems oblivious. He’s going to be a joy and we hope he’ll keep Missy busy and they’ll be buddies.

 

Thanks for rescuing him.

Mitten and Vincent

In May 2011, I was just browsing Homeward Pet cat adoption site and never thought I would be ready to adopt another cat until I saw Georgio

with his sister Chanel! We changed their names, Vincent for Giorgio and Mitten for Chanel. It was a little challenging in the beginning for them to adjust, they just seemed very scared and always trying to hide. Three months later, they finally come out from their shells.. Vincent is just such an awesome cat with a "Super Star" personality, he demands a lot of attention and he's not shy about it. It was very easy to make him purr really loud! Mitten is still a shy quiet little cat who loves to play.

 

I just want to thank you for helping me to meet my new family members!!

They bring so much joy to our house! I love them both!

 

Thank you for everything!

Grape (AKA Gabe)

In 2007 we welcomed a Black Lab to our home from Homeward Pet. Grape (AKA Gabe)  has been a wonderful addition to our family.  I've attached a photograph of Grape frolicking with our son, in a stream in Northern Idaho, where he has been many times.

 

Here at Priest Lake Grape enjoys fetching tennis balls all day long --- I estimate that he swims about a mile a day (!) for our August vacation.  He also goes hiking with us, up mountains and along the lake. Lately I've seen some signs that Grape is becoming a senior dog, but his health is good, his coat is glossy, and his tail wags every time I come home to greet him.

 

Grape is a dear member of our family.  Thank you for help us find each other.

Sincerely,

John Sahr and Eliza Sutton

New member Kiki

Dear Homeward Pet,
I got Kiki (her name in the shelter was Loki)  around May. At first I was worried that she and my 1st cat, Jacob, wouldn't get along, but as time passed, they became more and more friendly. Now they even clean each other's fur. Kiki is such a lover cat, she likes to take naps around me and will let me pet/hold her for as long as I want. Jacob even lets me pet him more than before...
 
Thank you Homeward Pet for my sweet Kiki.

Stanley & Dorothy!

Hello Homeward,

Stanley and Dorothy are doing very well.  Stan is very brave and not afraid of anything, he loves the dog and is really good with kids.  He thinks he is a dog and is always spending time with Mason the house dog we have.  They are the best of friends.  Dorothy is doing very well.  She is a very happy girl.  She is very outgoing and has to know what everyone is doing.  She also takes very good care of her brother always making sure his face is clean.

Charlie (now Kona)!

Hello!
My husband and I headed over to Homeward Pet last Saturday and ended up adopting "Charlie". We have since named him Kona.  There was just something about him that "clicked" with us as soon as we saw him. It's only been a few days but we can tell it's going to be a long, happy life for all of us! He is such a wonderful dog, we are so excited and grateful to have him!!
Attached are a few pics with him and our other dog Bijou, who incidentally was also a shelter dog  we adopted 5 years ago from the humane society in Vancouver.  They get along wonderfully; they are playing by my feet as I'm writing this. Yay!

You all do such wonderful work there. My boss also adopted her dog from you last year and has nothing but wonderful things to say about  you. Thank you so much!  A HUGE thanks also to Juliet, she helped us with the adoption.
