He’s super handsome, and loves people, and is a total lap cat. This poor guy was surrendered to the shelter when his family had a new baby. Why he couldn’t belong to their new family he doesn’t know, but he’s not holding onto the past; he’s looking to the future. continue reading »

Hi, I’m Princess and I sit all day in this tower wondering when my prince will come.

I guess I’m a little self-conscious because of this big black spot on my nose, but people around me call it a “beauty mark.”

I had a prince at one point, but he got really sick. He said to me that he didn’t want to take me to this scary place, but he couldn’t care for me the way he once did. Therefore, I still have hope that someone is out there for me. Are you that person? I’m only 3 years old and would love to spend the best part of my life with a companion. continue reading »

Hi my name is Shake Shake!

I ended up at ACCT because my family could no longer care for me. I am about 1 to 2 years old and am a terrier mix. I’m not one of those “jumpy” dogs, so I would be great for a family with children, and I really do like kids!

I really enjoy playing with toys and have lots of fun with other dogs.  continue reading »
