Adopt Me! Winston, Vixen, Joey, Garfield
Looking for a new pet? Consider sharing your home with one of these adoptable pets.
Winston
Winston is a 2-year-old male bullmastiff mix that was initially found stray but ended up here at , where all the staff and volunteers fell instantly in love with him. Although everyone has been smothering him with attention, he would like nothing more than to find a forever home. He loves being around people but doesn’t enjoy feline friends, so he shouldn’t live with cats. Winston may enjoy having a dog buddy in his new home, but he’d like to meet them first. Being a mastiff mix, he’s quite large and still enjoys playing and romping around so kids in Winston’s new home should be old enough to handle his size. This gentle giant is guaranteed to give you lots of love, so come meet him soon!
Vixen
Vixen is a female black and white domestic longhair cat. She’s 5-years-old and came to NAHS right before the holidays in 2010 with seven kittens. All of her kittens were adopted and Vixen found a home too, but unfortunately the other cat in her adopted home never got along with her, so Vixen came to NAHS to find a home where she could be the only pet. She’s a spunky girl who loves to play with toys and take long beauty naps. Kids in her new home should be older, as she can get over stimulated easily and tends to get grumpy when she’s had too much attention. This gorgeous girl would be the perfect addition to your home, so come meet this sassy girl today!
