🌟🐾 Paw-some Pick of the Day! 🐾🌟

We’re shining the spotlight on our pets with something special: each day, one amazing pet will be featured as our Paw-some Pick of the Day — and for that day only, their adoption fee is waived!

👉Monday, November 9th's ...Paw-some Pick is Karma B A0061665361!

Sometimes the best things in life come when you least expect them, and Karma B is hoping her next chapter brings her the happy ending she deserves! This 4-year-old girl weighs 74 pounds and came to WCAS as a stray. Sadly, she was never reclaimed, and now she’s ready to find a family to call her own.

Karma B has shown us that she appreciates a more relaxed pace! During her introduction with Tinkerbell, she initially showed little interest while the two sniffed through the fence. Once they entered the play yard, though, Karma B initiated interaction multiple times, showing loose body language and a wagging tail. Even when Tinkerbell got a little enthusiastic and tried jumping all over her, Karma B remained comfortable, with no signs of aggression or discomfort. Based on this introduction, she may be best suited to a canine companion who enjoys a calmer, more laid-back approach to friendship.

Could Karma B be the good fortune your family has been waiting for? 🐱🐶✨

❤Remember Thibodeau (now Tibby)???❤

Tibby arrived at WCAS in late July as a stray and was never reclaimed by an owner. This handsome guy spent a little over a month patiently waiting for his chance at a fresh start, and his patience finally paid ...off! In September, Tibby found his people and headed off to begin his next chapter in a forever home!

Tibby's adopter reached out and shared these wonderful photos & this cute update with us!
🐾We call him Tibby now. He's such a great dog! He's a sweetheart and an extremely well behaved dog. He enjoys walks and playing with his rope or ball! After he gets a bath he loves to play, he gets the zoomies. He's spoiled, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I knew his picture stuck out for a reason. We love him so much. I saw this email on Facebook. I thought I'd update you all. Thank you.🐾

❤Remember Cinnamon Toast Crunch???❤

Cinnamon Toast Crunch came in as a stray in late-July of this year and was never reclaimed by an owner. Thankfully, this sweet girl didn't have to wait too long to get adopted and go to a loving home - a ...few days into her stay, during her stray hold period, she was preselected by her future adopter! We prioritized her spay surgery to align with her emancipation date; so when her owners failed to reclaim her, she was altered and Cinnamon Toast Crunch's adopter was able to take her home right away!

Cinnamon Toast Crunch's adopter reached out to share these photos and this great update!

🐾I adopted this little girl from you guys August 4th. She is wonderful, very sweet and making herself right at home🐾

❤Remember Nugget???❤

Nugget came to WCAS in late-September of this year as a stray and was never reclaimed by an owner. As you can imagine, this adorable guy didn't have to wait too long to get adopted and go to a loving home - a few days ...into his stay, during his stray hold period, Nugget was preselected by his future adopter! We prioritized his neuter surgery to align with his emancipation date; so when his owners failed to reclaim him, he was altered and Nugget's adopter was able to take him home right away!

Nugget's adopters reached out and shared these wonderful photos & this lovely update with us!

🐾To the Winnebago County Animal Services Team,
I wanted to reach out and share an update on Nugget, the little orange Pomeranian mix I adopted from your shelter on October 1, 2026.

First, I want to thank you for the work you do and for giving Nugget the opportunity to find his forever home. When I adopted him, I knew I was bringing home a dog who needed a chance, but I didn’t realize just how much happiness he would bring into our lives.

Nugget has been settling in with us, and he is such a sweet, loving, and well-mannered little dog. He follows me around, loves being close to me, and has been learning his commands. He has such a big personality for such a little guy, and he has become a special part of our family.

Today, Nugget had his first grooming appointment with us at PetSmart, where he received the deluxe grooming package. I wanted to share these pictures because he looks so handsome! His fluffy orange coat, little face, and happy personality make him absolutely adorable.

He has his own name tag now, too, with his name, Nugget Stephens. He is no longer just a little stray who came through the shelter. He is a loved family member with a home, a family, and people who care about him.

I also wanted to share this update because I know that behind every animal who comes through your doors is a story, and I hope Nugget’s story is a reminder of why the work you do matters. Thank you for caring for him before he found his way to me and for helping make our paths cross.

Please feel free to share his pictures and happy-tail update on your page if you would like. I would be happy for other people to see how he is doing!

With gratitude and love,
Nugget and his family ❤️🐾
