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 love! It took her at least 6 months to really fit into our pack, especially …
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.
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 to meet us and working with our schedule. They were super shy those first few …
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.
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 and had a chest full of birdshot. Best dog ever. Vesta was part of a …
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 leave her but I told her we had to briefly so we could make sure …
I’m fortunate to work with a great guy (and his wife Joy) who are fosters for CARE. My mother had recently lost her beloved Chocolate Lab and was considering adopting another fur baby. We had discussed this sweet baby at work everyday. My mother was not in a position to take on the responsibility for another dog. The more I heard about this sweet baby and her “ruff” background… I …
We adopted Ella from CARE in the spring of 2021. She made herself right at home with us, keeping us laughing with her big personality and ridiculous curly back fur. Ella loves spending time in our yard (she’s a serious stick collector) and she’s developing a love for the beach too. It’s been great keeping up with her mom and her litter mates through their new families as they were …
After saying goodbye to two of our beloved kitties in 2020, we felt it was time to add another furry friend to our mix, so we decided to adopt a quiet somewhat playful kitty for our 6 yrs. old sweet settled down Mickey. I went online and looked and looked. Immediately upon seeing “Tom” Murphy’s sweet kind eyes, I wanted to meet him. We met Tom along with other kitties …
