🌟🐾 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!

👉Thursday, June 18th's ...Paw-some Pick is Ruth A0061024592!

Ruth is a 6-year-old cat weighing just 6 pounds who came to WCAS as an owner surrender due to a decline in her owner's health. While this transition has been a big change for her, Ruth is hoping to find a loving family where she can once again feel safe, comfortable, and cherished.
Ruth can be a little shy when meeting new people and experiencing new environments, but with patience and kindness, she has the potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. She would likely appreciate a calm home where she can settle in at her own pace and build trust with her new family.

This petite girl is looking for a forever home filled with love and understanding. Once she feels secure, Ruth is sure to reward her family with the quiet companionship and devotion that make cats so special.
Ruth can't wait to meet you! Stop by the shelter during our open hours to spend some time with her and the many other wonderful pets waiting to find their forever homes.🐱🐶✨

✨🙏It's Wishlist Wednesday! 🙏✨

Our model is ❤Sebastian A0060283749❤ who is currently available for adoption here at WCAS!

Sebastian is a 1-year-old, 36-pound pup who’s ready for a fresh start and a forever home. He recently came into our care due to a change ...in his previous living situation, and now he’s looking for a safe, stable place where he can truly thrive.

Since being with us, Sebastian has shown just how sweet and social he can be. During a dog introduction here at the shelter, staff noted that he greeted another dog with kisses and handled playtime wonderfully—allowing the other dog to roughhouse while remaining friendly and easygoing.

Sebastian is now looking for a family to call his own and can’t wait to start this next chapter. If you’re ready to open your heart and home, Sebastian would love to meet you!

Due to their long time search for a forever home they’re part of the "Lonely Hearts Club" meaning half of their adoption fee has been covered by the WCAS Auxiliary!

This week, we're in need of the following item(s):
✨Wet Dog Food
✨Kongs

👉Wednesday, June 17th's ...Paw-some Pick is Colette A0061023518!

Colette is a 3-year-old, 46-pound dog who came to WCAS as a stray and was never reclaimed by an owner. Because her history before arriving at the shelter is unknown, we're still learning about her personality and what makes her unique.

One thing we've already discovered is that Colette enjoys the company of other dogs. During a dog introduction with another female dog, she responded well to correction and showed appropriate social behavior. As she became more comfortable, Colette even initiated play, giving staff a glimpse of her fun-loving side.

While we may not know much about Colette's past, we'd love your help discovering her future. The best way to get to know her is to come meet her in person and see if she's the right fit for your family and lifestyle.

Colette can't wait to meet you! Stop by the shelter during our open hours to spend time with her and the many other wonderful pets waiting to find their forever homes.🐱🐶✨

During her time at WCAS, Zipporah completed a successful dog intro with another dog here at the shelter. In fact, she's one of our team's go-to temperament test dogs because of her friendly and easygoing nature.

👉Friday, June 12th's Paw-some ...Pick is Topher A0060707022!

Topher is a 5-year-old, 67-pound handsome guy who’s ready to find a place to call home. He initially came to us as a stray in late-March of this year and was never reclaimed, so his past is a bit of a mystery. After a couple of weeks in our care, Topher was adopted; however, a month after leaving WCAS, Topher found himself back in our care after his adopter returned him citing that they were moving and could not take him along with to their new home.

During Topher's first visit with us, he participated in a dog introduction with another male dog here at the shelter, and it went well! The two spent their time calmly walking around the play yard together, occasionally checking in with one another. His easygoing and social nature makes him a great candidate for a variety of homes.

Now, Topher is looking for a family to get back to and love forever. Help us learn even more about him by coming in to meet him—you just might find your perfect match.🐱🐶✨
