I look forward to this drink every year! This ladies' club wears inflatable costumes and stops cars at an intersection to collection donations for @pawspendletonor.bsky.social . It is SUCH a fun event!

Thank you to the Cherry Bombs and BackFire Station for this fabulous event! This year's fundraiser raised $812 total with in-person and online donations! A party that raises money for our shelter and has its own signature drink? We think this is a win-win for *everyone* 💗🍒💣

Daisy's fosters say, "Daisy is a sweet girl who is very eager to please! She’s crate trained, walks well on a leash, & has learned lots of manners while working with us! She’s curious but relaxed about our cats & gets along well with our dog. #dogs #adoptdontshop Please share!

Let's keep celebrating these adoptions! Happy Adoption Day to Smallie! This adopter saw this sweet senior kitty looking a little disheveled and asked how she could help her 💔 Smallie just needs some help grooming herself in her golden years.

We talked about grooming gloves and gentle detangling combs. We are so happy that Smallie is going home with someone who can give her the time and attention she deserves 💗 We hope to be sharing a "glow-up" picture soon! #cats #seniorcats #adoptdontshop

Meet Tinker Bell! She was seeming very sick at the pound, so she got a trip to the vet where she spent the night, and then I picked her up today. She is now safe at @pawspendletonor.bsky.social . Possibly she is food insecure and eats/drinks until she throws up and needs a refeeding plan. #dogs

Their new dad is committed to giving them the #BestLifePossible and spoiling these babies 💗🐾

We value all of our adopters, and special needs adopters, especially. It takes a special person to adopt pets with medical conditions that will, most likely, shorten their life spans.

Yesterday, we had a very special adoption! Happy Adoption Day to our two siblings, Sam (female) and Mike (male)! This adoption is special because these kitties have Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). This means that their immune systems don't function like normal immune systems, and Sam and Mike can't be
