The sweetest fur babies (10/27/2024) - I saw these two online and fell in love right away. They are the absolutely sweetest kittens with such big personalities. Callie is my shadow and rarely leaves my side, so she is the perfect work from home companion. Phoebe has really opened up and loves playing with my adult kitties. I often hear them […]
The sweetest little sibs ever (10/20/2024) - I lost my sweet dog in June, 2024 and had been so sad without her. She had been my buddy for 12 years. My family and friends encouraged me to get another dog, but I just couldn’t imagine another dog doing doggie behaviors in the house. And then I had the thought of looking for […]
Squeaks (4/30/2024) - We adopted Squeaks after losing our ginger kitty Tiger in February. We followed CARE over the last year as Tiger was declining and wanted to adopt locally. We couldn’t have done better! He is a joy. Sweet, affectionate and loves our dogs. We also adopted a feral from a friend within a day of Squeaks […]
Midnight’s Adoption Story (4/21/2024) - We reached out to CARE about adopting Midnight based on his bio. He was described as being a sweet and shy boy, which we thought would be a good fit for our family. We adopted a cat previously from CARE and had a great experience, so we knew that we wanted to adopt through them […]
Best “Woods cats” George (Geordi) and Honey (Beverly) (4/14/2024) - We love having George and Honey be part of our family. Honey (Beverly) adores our Labrador and will snuggle with him. She is definitely not afraid to defend George if Koko chases him. Honey had him hiding in the bathroom for 10 minutes one time with her race car growl. George likes to investigate everything […]
My sweet and fun Emy Lou! (11/14/2023) - After I lost my 11 year old cat, Kiara, I adopted Emy from CARE. She has given me so much love and laughter. She’s so fun and smart! Thank you Patti and John (foster caregivers) for taking care of sweet Emy. I’m so happy to find her, and she couldn’t be more perfect for me.
Trespasser (10/16/2023) - I was just out on my porch and our feral cat, turned full time lap cat, jumped up to hang out with me for a few minutes. So I thought I’d send an update. We originally thought he, named Trespasser, was a “she” back in April before I trapped him and had him neutered with […]
Peachy Keen! (10/8/2023) - Formerly Sameen, Peach has been an adorable and delightful addition to our little family! She and Cleo are best pals, and spend almost all day cuddling and playing.
Milo is home! (5/3/2023) - Almost a month ago, Milo, a handsome 8-yr-old tuxedo kitty, became our resident feline. We were, for the first time in decades, pet-less after the death of our old foundling, T. William, a dog not known for his love of cats. We feel very fortunate to have found Milo who, as well as being decorative, […]
Frankie is 18 years old! (2/15/2023) - I came across Frankie’s rescue papers and thought I would let you know how he’s doing. He turns 18 this year and other than losing a lot of teeth he’s doing ok. He had a lot of teeth pulled years ago, but three years ago the vet said it wasn’t safe to pull the rest. […]
Elie, Our Maltese (11/21/2022) - We saw Elie first on Petfinder so we submitted an application. Soon afterward, Joy Duquette called us. We were on our way to meet Elie! And, what a girl! Elie is our little sweetie. She follows her mom all over the house, and her dad too. She has charmed our vets and staff at Kindred […]
Best Friends (9/15/2022) - Having lost both of my parents within 5 months, I had to be away from home quite a bit. In spite of having friends regularly checking in on our 2-year-old tabby Zar, he developed pretty severe separation anxiety. We debated getting another cat – a friend for him. Would he like them? Would this new […]
Mr. and Mrs. (9/8/2022) - A couple of years ago, we adopted another CARE cat, Winston. He never bonded with our senior kitty, Cricket. They didn’t fight, but lived separate lives; Cricket made it clear that she wanted nothing to do with our new arrival who looked like, but clearly was not, her longtime beloved companion Porter (who had also […]
BB the Gorgeous Beagle! (4/23/2022) - One fine September day back in 2018, we decided to go to an adoption event at Phydeaux. We already had adopted 2 dogs from CARE before and we just wanted to get some puppy love. We were not really looking to add to our pack but when we saw Beatrice the beagle, we fell in […]
Felix the Cat (4/12/2022) - Three weeks ago I adopted a second cat through CARE…an 11 month old tuxedo cat, Felix. I got him as a companion for my 7 year old female cat, Skittles. She has adjusted to his youthful antics, and he has been a constant source of amusement! Thank you CARE for all you do.
Bonded brothers (4/10/2022) - We started talking about adding another cat to our two cat household in 2019. When I found CARE and saw Fitz and Mac, I knew we couldn’t adopt one without the other. Our two cat household quickly became a four cat household. Patti was their foster mom and great about bringing them to our house […]
The love of my life (4/4/2022) - My precious Haven will be 7 yrs old on April 21, 2022. She came into my life at 6 months old having been fostered by Laura and Jesse. She is the bright spot in my life everyday. I will be forever grateful to CARE for choosing me as her forever mom.
Phoebe (3/8/2022) - We adopted Phoebe from CARE. She’s a great cat – we love her.
Red, Vesta, Humphrey, & Ginger (3/8/2022) - I have had 5 dogs in my life and 4 were adopted from CARE (the 5th, Kira, was a stray who showed up in the neighborhood). Red, my first, was Heinz57 mix and a lover. He was everyone’s friend, even though he had been a stray and, we found out later, had even been shot […]
Best dog ever (2/13/2022) - I saw Libby’s photo on the CARE website and knew right away I wanted to see her in person. It was love at first sight when we saw her at the adoption event and I believe it was mutual based on her little tail wagging around in circles at us. My daughter didn’t want to […]
