    Meet Lennon (SWEET LAP CAT)  Lennon was born on November 5, 2023, and he is an exceptionally affectionate lap cat. I rescued him from an abandoned house, where he was found with an old collar embedded in his neck. Not only is Lennon strikingly beautiful, but he also has a wonderfully gentle personality. He enjoys eating, playing, and interacts delightfully with other cats. By adopting from my rescue, you contribute to saving another deserving cat from a life on the streets.  Ferals and Cats and Kittens Oh My!

    		Introducing Sylvan, the sweetest guy on the block, born on November 11, 2022! With his stylish polydactyl paws (double the toes, double the adorableness!), he struts with flair—one front leg is classic black while the other shines in bright white.  Sylvan is incredibly sweet, loves to be the center of attention, and will surely melt your heart with his irresistible charm. This lovable little guy is on a quest to find his forever home, and he's ready to steal your heart!  He’s seeking a warm and loving environment, preferably in an all-adult household or one with children aged 12 and older, and he would thrive in a home without dogs.

    Daisy  is very new to us. She was a stray cat who is absolutely gorgeous. Just look at her deep coloring and attentive eyes!   She is slowly learning to trust people and getting to love being warm and having a constant food supply. She is shy but she does allow petting. She will blossom into a loving companion.
     Mr. Grey's Strays    		 Meet Sparkles.  Sparkles is a gorgeous tortoiseshell with a gentle spirit and a quiet heart. She’s been waiting at the rescue far too long, patiently hoping for a home to call her own. Shy by nature, Sparkles won’t be the first to greet you at the door—but give her a cozy corner and a little space, and she’ll quietly keep you company, watching the world with her wise, beautiful eyes. She doesn’t ask for much—just a calm, loving home where she can feel safe and finally settle in.Sparkles has waited long enough. Could you be the one to show her what home truly means?

Skylar loves to run in our play yard, and play tug with a rope toy. Skylar is looking for a home without cats or small animals.

    		 Thunder is 2 years old, and this big guy weighs just under 75 pounds. Thunder loves to run in our play yard, and to play tug with a rope toy. He knows how to sit and lay down for treats. Thunder is looking for a home without cats, and we think he'll do best in a home where the kids are older (12 and up recommended). Thunder must meet any resident dog(s) in a potential new home, to make sure they get along..    Available for Adoption at the Humane Society of Wayne County, Lyons NY

    Meet MUMBLES! Mumbles is a 3 year old cattle dog mix. He is such a affectionate pup but does require an owner who understands the needs of his active breed (heeler/cattle dog). Mumbles is still very much a puppy and is VERY active, he can jump high so we do require applicants to have a fully fenced in yard 5' or higher for him. Mumbles is very unsure of other dogs, so he would do best in a home where he could get all the love and attention for himself. Mumbles LOVES his humans, loves to play and would love a home to cuddle up by your side after a nice run in the yard. He does great with kids, responds to recall, and listens to commands. Mumbles is very obedient and eager to please his humans. Second Hand Dog `Rescue   (585) 305-5111  Meet DOLLY (aka Llama), a 50-pound brindle beauty with a heart of gold and an abundance of energy. She is a smart pup who is crate and house trained, and knows her basic commands. She is working on leash walking and would benefit from ongoing training and exercise. Dolly's favorite pastime is zipping around a yard, splashing in pools, and chasing her favorite ball. She is full of energy and would thrive in an active home with a fenced-in yard to expend all that energy. Dolly is a natural swimmer and loves nothing more than playing in the water.  Second Hand Dog Rescue   (585) 305-5111
    Joey is a gentle giant of a cat! He's a calm, 7-year-old man who purrs when you brush him and rolls over for head scrooches.

    MONTY, a striking 4-year-old Poodle-Husky mix, boasts a majestic white coat compli- mented by captivating blue eyes. (He is NOT hypo- allergenic and DOES shed!) Weighing in at 90 pounds, his presence is as grand as his heart. Monty is a testament to the harmonious blend of his breeds, inheriting the intelligence and elegance of the Poodle, along with the Husky's adventurous spirit and resilience.  Second Hand Dog Rescue   (585) 305-5111 PENNY was a last minute addition to our latest transport from Georgia death row - we saw her wagging tail and we walked by the kennel and hopeful look and smile and talked to the staff who said she was super sweet and a really nice dog, and we could not let her die. She's young like maybe just a year or so old and some kind of lab terrier mix maybe? Medium sized and a friendly pup..  Second Hand Dog Rescue   (585) 305-5111
    Hunter is a 13 week old adorable puppy who's such a sweetie and so fun! He's vetted to age he and his mom both look boxery, but we of course have no idea on what kind of dog dad was. Mom is just 35 lbs and he seems like he'll fall in the medium size range, as well. He is playful, friendly, and snuggly, and enjoys playing with the foster's other dogs, and his toys, as well as chewing on bones. He's going to make someone a GREAT addition to their family! He's vetted to age.  Second Hand Dog Rescue   (585) 305-5111 Meet Venti and Java, a bonded pair of Siamese female kittens! Venti is a beautiful seal point (black, cream, and brown colors), and Java has a stunning white, cream, and brown coat, with a tiny bit of black around her ears. They are both very attached to each other, which is why they absolutely must be adopted together. Once incredibly shy, these two have come a long way! Venti is very cuddly and active now, and she loves pets and rubbing up against people. Java is a bit more reserved than her sister and a little more cautious, but she also enjoys pets and likes having visitors come see her. If you are looking to adopt two beautiful cats together and are willing to give them the right combination of attention, space, and love to allow them to flourish and continue becoming more outgoing, please consider Venti and Java!    Animal Service League, Rochester, NY
