Charlotte (yes, that will remain her name) is doing GREAT! She's still a little shy about exploring the house, and my other cat is taking her time to "embrace" her new sister. But every day we make progress -- when the sun goes down, Charlotte comes out of her little "hidey hole" in my office and explores the house to her heart's content. My other cat is starting to accept her more and more each day -- no hissing, no fighting. Charlotte is extremely affectionate, and when I sit in my office (which is where her special hidey hole is), she spends a lot of her time rubbing up against my legs and "talking" to me. Charlotte is a great girl, and we love her! I love the shot of her head cradled in my husband's hand. - Denise

don't know what betty did before wilma.... they are truly best buds... wilma in her party hat... we love her to bits! thank you for having such fabulous foster parents - she's a love... karen

She's doing well; she seems to be a happy little kitty; loves to play and romp about, likes to be petted and sit on laps, and loves watching the birds out the window - we are very happy to have her with us! - Philip

We are LOVVINGGG our new addition to our family!! Louie (his new given name - formerly Lamborghini) is a sweet, loving kitty! thank you for giving us yet another wonderful pet!! the Tremont Family

Rocky has a new name of Smokey, but I call him "Little Kitty Faces" and he loves it :-) He is a very spunky kitten full of piss and vinegar :-) he loves to bite toes, walk on your feet as you try to walk and he loves to help with grocery bags or if you need to write he will be your best friend. He loves to help guide the pen as you write. He is also the most vocal cat I have ever had, I love it. We have chats daily. - Brandy

We love Stardust and are so lucky she came home with us. She is happy and healthy and loves to cuddle. This photo is from several weeks ago and she has grown alot since then. We will send another one soon. Carla and Lucinda

We did actually change Marty's name to "Husky". He's awesome :) Stephen

I just wanted to say thank you so much for taking care of Dash (Cy) and giving him all of the medical attention he needed as a youngster. We are having such a good time with him and love him so much already! Even our other cat Dori (who we also adopted from Healdsburg Animal Shelter) loves him and they are having so much fun playing together. Dash and Dori (our other kitty from HAS) are getting along really well and we are so happy to have both of them as a part of our little family.

Thanks for all that you do. It is truly an amazing job that you do and that the shelter does to protect these animals.

Ella is doing great! We are thoroughly enjoying her. And we kept her name the same. The De Toffoli's.

We love Ali!!!! (We kept her name) She's such a sweetheart! She and our other cat Chance get along so well! She's such a lap cat, always jumping up and making herself comfy as soon as anyone sits down, and her uncontrollable purring is adorable! We even got a brand new tower for them. She's a lovable addition to our family and we're already so happy and lucky to have her :). Have a great day! Emma

I am very happy to have Wunjo home with me, once again (and so is he!). You don't know, but Wunjo was originally my cat, adopted from HAS in 2002, and now he has been readopted by me. I won't be changing his name, as it aptly means "joy", and I gave him that name.

Wunjo was a trooper with our 16 hour journey from Healdsburg to his new home in the mountains of North Carolina ... 2 flights, a 3 hour layover in Denver, and then a 3 1/2 hour drive from Atlanta to home. He sat quietly in his crate under the seat in front of meon the planes, and then he slept on my lap for the final drive in the car. He has taken beautifully to his new house, and has gently "trained" our Golden Retriever puppy on the proper procedures and art of approaching a cat.
They are quite friendly with one another, and even sleep nose-to-nose at night.

Wunjo was fascinated to watch his first snow fall from our living room window, as you can see from the picture .

We are both grateful for our reunion and we will remain inseparable!
Thank you for taking such good care of him until I could get to Healdsburg to bring him home.

Best regards,
Leslie Maziejka

Happy Tails for Max!

Tiger settled in the first day and now rules the household. He is affectionate and friendly and we have bonded well. Thanks for my new room-mate.

Jolie is doing very well at her new home. Her full name is now Jolie Princess Pranpreeya Ernest Clarke (Jasmine named her after herself and just added in the Princess lol). Jasmine absolutely adores her and loves her to pieces. Thank you so much for letting us adopt Jolie, we will take very good care of her always. Sincerely, Alicia
