WHS Adoptable Animals

Billy, Rocky and Tom aren't all brothers, but they sure do play hard and nap harder!  These adorable kittens, who range in age from 10-12 weeks, are just a few of the many young cats available for adoption right now at WHS.  Summer is always a very busy time for cats and kittens and this year is no exception.  Every day, new kittens arrive at the shelter, seeking a second chance. Thankfully, there are many adopters in the community looking to open their hearts and homes to sweet kitties like Billy, Rocky and Tom.  Would you like to meet this terrific trio?  Stop in at WHS today or visit www.wihumane.org to view all the animals up for adoption.

Roxie will have your neighbors all inquiring about your stunning new family member.  This Labrador Retriever/German Shepherd mix has a gorgeous, shiny black coat with beautiful beige and brown markings.  Her chocolate brown eyes will melt your heart, especially if accompanied by her ears perking up!  Roxie knows cues such as "sit" and "down"; she will likely learn new skills very fast.

Roxie is a fun, happy girl who appreciates a tennis ball with a good bounce to it.  At only 1.5 years old, she thinks everything is fun, interesting and needs to be played with - especially you!  With her own brand of surprises, life with Roxie will keep you constantly on your toes; the fun is guaranteed. Like all the dogs at WHS, Roxie has been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped.

In other news, the Ozaukee Humane Society is holding a Pet Talent Contest at the Strawberry Festival in Cedarburg this weekend! Does your pooch have the biggest smile, most unusual trick, or the wiggliest body?  Register here.

 Check Roxie out at www.wihumane.org or call 414-ANIMALS for more info on this terrific pooch!  

Alfie has a lot going for him: charm, charisma, good looks and warm brown eyes that will melt your heart. He doesn't have a family to call his own, though, so this 8 1/2 year old Shetland Sheepdog/Terrier mix waits patiently for someone who will cherish all he has to offer.  When you visit Alfie, he's apt to roll over on your lap, inviting a belly rub.  Extremely affectionate, Alfie will keep you company on the couch and will likely bond quickly with his new family.

A senior dog like Alfie is a great option for a lot of people. Senior dogs have personalities that are much more established than a puppy's; seniors are often housetrained and sometimes know cues like "sit," "down" and "come."  Best of all, many seniors, like Aflie, don't have crazy puppy energy and prefer strolls around the block to running 5 miles at dawn!  Although he's 8 1/2, Alfie is in great health and looks forward to spending many years taking fun walks, playing with squeaky toys and watching movies with you!

Dreamer is a sweet 11-year-old Brown and White Tabby cat who greets all visitors with lots of chin rubs. This striking feline has the most unusually-shaped green eyes that have amazing flecks of color. You simply must see this unique cat in person!

Dreamer prefers the company of people over toys, but is eager to accept the occasional salmon treat. She also enjoys lots of petting, particularly right behind her ears and on her forehead. Affectionate and gentle, Dreamer has a great personality.

True to her name, Dreamer also enjoys a quiet afternoon lounging near her window, watching the hustle and bustle from the comfort of indoors.  Could she be your dream girl?  Check her out at wihumane.org. Our website is updated every 30 minutes!  

P.S. This weekend, Dreamer watched the storms roll through Milwaukee, thankfully safe and sound inside her suite. In an emergency, how would you evacuate your animals? Have you considered the supplies and documents that you should have on hand if such an event occurred?  Check out a comprehensive checklist for emergency evacuation plans that will help you keep your furry family members safe in an emergency.

Sarah's sea blue eyes are absolutely captivating, especially against her snow white fur.  This 2-year-old Siberian Husky mix doesn't just depend on her good looks, though!  She is a very intelligent, curious and social girl.  Sarah is thrilled to get visitors and loves to walk in the spring sunshine.  Sarah came to us as a stray and she's hoping to start a new life with an active family or guardian interested in training, exercising and bonding with their new pal! Siberian Huskies often do well with other dogs because they are so social and friendly, so Sarah might be a great dog to have your own pup meet!  Bring him or her down to WHS for a doggie intro on neutral ground.  See www.wihumane.org for more details.
