🐹 Whisker Wednesday: Meet Moonpie!
Meet Moonpie! 🌙
This handsome 3-year-old American guinea pig is slowly coming out of his shell and showing us more of his sweet personality.
Moonpie is used to having guinea pig friends and would love to find a home where he can have a buddy to keep him company.
He’s still getting to know us, so we’re excited to see what else this sweet boy has in store!
Come meet Moonpie and see if he might be the missing piece in your home. ❤️ ...

💩🐾 WE NEED YOUR HELP SCOOPING UP! 🐾💩
We’re running low on poop scoopers at the shelter, and with all the dogs in our care, you can imagine how quickly we go through them!
If you’d like to help us keep our kennels clean and our staff scooping, scooping, scooping, we’ve added a few poop scooper options to the top of our Amazon Wishlist!
🛒 But here’s an important wishlist tip:
Once an item is purchased from our wishlist, it disappears from the list. So if you click over and don’t see the poop scoopers we mentioned, that means someone may have already scooped them up for us! 🥹❤️
Please take a look through our entire wishlist while you’re there. There are always plenty of other items our shelter animals need, and your generosity makes a HUGE difference in their daily care.
Thank you for helping us keep things clean, one scoop at a time! 🐾❤️

🎃🐾 Pumpkin Spice is waiting for someone to see her for who she really is. 🐾🎃
Pumpkin Spice is a 4½-year-old girl who hasn't had much interest here at the shelter—and we think her shyness may be part of the reason.
New people can be scary for Pumpkin Spice, especially men. But underneath that nervous exterior is a calm, sweet girl who simply needs time, patience, and a safe place to decompress. ❤️
She has lived with kids and other dogs before and gets along well with them. Once she trusts you, she's a relaxed, loving companion who is happiest lounging by your side and enjoying a quiet, predictable routine.
Pumpkin Spice will need someone who understands that trust doesn't happen overnight. She may need some time to settle in, but once she feels safe, you'll get to see the sweet, easygoing girl we've come to know.
Right now, what Pumpkin Spice needs most is a chance. A foster home or forever home could give her the space she needs to decompress and finally let her guard down.
🎃 Could you be the person who gives Pumpkin Spice that chance?
