We picked Tucker (formerly Sam) up yesterday. We were given a two-page handout on suggestions to help us integrate our new “cautious” family member to our home. Tucker escaped his “safe” starting zone in about 10 minutes. Within an hour, he had smelled around the entire house, and had his first meal and plenty of water. He has been at home since. We cannot thank HSHV enough for bringing little Tucker into our lives.   Sam now Tucker

Skylar (formerly Iguanadon) was a Love Train puppy. She is enjoying her cat brother, and he seems to enjoy her, too! She is having so much fun getting socialized with her dog aunts and cousins! It’s easy to tell she’s a very happy puppy!   Iguanadon now Skylar

My fiancé and I adopted Posie on New Year’s Eve two years ago. I noticed her in the ‘Adoptable Animals’ and saw that she was not adopted month after month. We went in to visit her, and were told that people were afraid to handle her. Her nickname was the Tiny Terror! She weighs a pound and a half but drew blood regularly. She let me stroke her tiny nose and that’s when I knew I was in love. We brought her home the same day. Now her demeanor has totally changed. She is the sweetest little cuddlebug! She loves

She became ill and with the help of HSHV she fully recovered and is loving being a “little sister”. Prim is doing great and Jack (Napoleon HSHV rescue) loves her!   Primrose now Fleek

Since finding her furever home with our family over a year ago, Aurora has snuggled her way onto our laps and into our hearts! She is incredibly smart. She knows her toys: QueeK QueeK (the mouse), Potty Mouse (the catnip mouse that she often sits on), crinkly ball, pink ball, etc. She has also been known to bring them upon request. Aurora has a discerning palate, and truly seems to enjoy ginger broccoli — and to my chagrin — lemon-lime cookies that I left on the counter in a plastic Ziploc baggie! (Won’t do that again!) Aurora loves her sporadic

When I first brought Farley home, he was very timid and afraid. He hid for about 2 weeks. So, I decided to adopt another cat to help him get over his fear. We adopted Dracula on Halloween night. He was so fun-loving and outgoing I thought he would be the perfect cat to help bring Farley out of his shell and learn to trust those around him, and Dracula has done just that.   Dracula and Farley

Our two 18 yr old girls (cats) recently passed away within 6 months of each other. They were our fur kids in a most deep sense. My husband was more than ready to have an animal back in the house, and I was still resistant. In Ann Arbor, from out of town with a few hours to kill, we decided to go to Tiny Lions “just to pet some cats” and nothing more. Hahaaa, sure. When this little fur ball strutted up the cat tree and plopped down right at eye level, I quietly looked at his name tag, and
