Just your average "Good Dog"

We're not sure why Buster hasn't been adopted.

Heck, no one's even asked about him.

He's ready to be your best friend. To greet you at the door, talk to you, play with you, and get belly rubs.

What more could you ask for?

Gimlet the Great

I am an 8-year-old kitten (don't tell the shelter, but I'm younger than they think ;p). My name is Gimlet, and I have 26 toes (most cats only have 18). I came to the shelter in such bad shape that they didn't think I was going to make it, but they didn't know just how tough I am. I went from a measly 6 lbs to over 10 lbs! I'm a big strong boy, and I've got a clean bill of health (and the medical work-up to back it up). I love love love to play, and I hope my new home has a cat or cats or kittens for me to play with. In fact, if you're thinking about fostering for the shelter (and you totally should!), I would be the perfect host. I'm not crazy about dogs, but as long as I have my own space, I can co-exist peacefully. Please email my foster parents to learn even more about me!

Gimlet's favorite things

1. Food
2. Talking about food
3. Playing with kittens
4. People
5. Comfy beds

Shtanley!

I have no idea how I never posted about him on here, but shweet Shtanley was adopted today!

Good news!

It's not hyperthyroid! Tell your friends!

Turns out the mass is benign and non-functioning, and all other lab results were normal, so Gimlet is available for adoption! So proud of my rowdy old man!

Gimlet and the kittens

A common symptom of hyperthyroid is "my old cat is acting like a kitten again!" Which is cute, but not normal, and it's like the cat is on speed: it strains the heart and the rest of the body in turn. I'm not sure if he'll still want to play with them in 3 weeks, but for now, he's happy to have friends.

Everyone is staring at him because he was being silly and playing under the dresser.

His favorite place to play is behind the curtain.

The kittens were playing under the bed, and as hard as he tried, he couldn't get them to come play with him.

So he looked on in disappointment.
