Her first Real Home

Her first Real Home

November 15, 2018 | Comments Off on Her first Real Home

In early August, 2018 we decided it was time to start looking for a companion for the young cat we’d adopted from Tiny Lions in April. We were not entirely sure who we’d find, but when we visited HSHV, we learned that there were a number of “Legacy Adoptions” available who had come from the Augusta Township hoarding situation. Satai (formerly Doris Lessing) was one of these. As we met many cats that afternoon, we kept coming back to this beautiful and imperious creature, who clearly needed love and also clearly had much to give. We knew she wouldn’t necessarily

After our 14-year-old black lab rescue died, we gave away our dog beds. We were heartbroken. A few months later, we started looking for dogs to adopt. We met Mareth and Garet, two 10-month old German Shepherd mixes, at HSHV. They had been chained to a fence and abandoned for three days with no food. So sad! When we first met, Mareth and Garet were nervous and sweet. We couldn’t adopt the dogs because we were going on vacation. While on vacation, we thought they had been adopted. We were disappointed. We called anyway. Good news! The dogs were available.
