Denver has had a rough start in his short kitten life. He started out on the streets and ended up at the county shelter with his brother. Both were lucky to be adopted a few months ago. Unfortunately for Denver, the senior resident cat was not up for rough housing with a kitten. We don’t understand why, but the family that adopted him thought that declawing him would solve the rough housing problem. Well, it didn’t, and now Denver is not only homeless again but he also had to go through the pain of being robbed of his claws.
This sweet couple saw his story on our Facebook page and knew that they had to give Denver his second chance. Thank you for adopting!

Occasionally we rescue a dog who struggles to be adoption-ready. Their bad prior life rendered them tricky to re-home. Harley was part of a neglect/hoarding case. She’d been kept in poor conditions for so long that when we rescued her, she had no idea how to respond. As a result, some of our volunteers walked…
