"Hi, guys! I'm Little Bit, and I've had a really ruff life! I have warmed up to the shelter staff, but when Caitlin reached out to pet me, I bit her out of fear. You see, I don't know her yet so I will need some time to decompress in my new home if you plan to take a chance on me. Once I warm up to you, I'm actually a very sweet girl who loves to give kisses and get attention from humans. Please consider giving me a home, here!"

"Hello, I'm Apple Tree. I recently had a litter of kittens and my kids were all adopted except me—how sad. I'm a very affectionate cat but also like to hang out on my perch, relaxing. I am nice to the other kitties that are in the room, but I usually keep my distance where I can be by myself!"

"I have spent my entire life being used to breed puppies, and now I just want a home where I can be a dog and relax for once. My owner tragically passed away recently so that's why I was surrendered. My previous owner house-trained me, taught me how to walk on a leash, and instilled in me some proper doggo manners. Give me a home here!"
