Happy Endings for CARE pets!

Elie, Our Maltese

We saw Elie first on Petfinder so we submitted an application. Soon afterward, Joy Duquette called us. We were on our way to meet Elie! And, what a girl! Elie is our little sweetie. She follows her mom all over the house, and her dad too. She has charmed our vets and staff at Kindred Heart as well as everyone she meets. She follows her poodle brother around and they…

Best Friends

Having lost both of my parents within 5 months, I had to be away from home quite a bit. In spite of having friends regularly checking in on our 2-year-old tabby Zar, he developed pretty severe separation anxiety. We debated getting another cat – a friend for him. Would he like them? Would this new addition just kick his existing anxiety into overdrive? Should we do it? A decision was…

Mr. and Mrs.

A couple of years ago, we adopted another CARE cat, Winston. He never bonded with our senior kitty, Cricket. They didn’t fight, but lived separate lives; Cricket made it clear that she wanted nothing to do with our new arrival who looked like, but clearly was not, her longtime beloved companion Porter (who had also been a CARE kitty many years ago!). After we mourned Cricket’s loss, we decided that…

BB the Gorgeous Beagle!

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…

Felix the Cat

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.

Bonded brothers

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…

The love of my life

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.

Red, Vesta, Humphrey, & Ginger

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…

Best dog ever

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…
