    Who Are Pet Celebrities?   The wonderful pets featured below are recommended by volunteers based on the most need, special
    circumstances, or  simply overlooked and waiting in shelters the longest.  Please give them your consideration.  Many never get a home.
    Meet Fresia and Flora, inseparable sisters who are one year old and have soft, long fur. They MUST be adopted TOGETHER!
    Flora, a dark tortoiseshell calico, is outgoing and playful, always seeking attention. In contrast, Fresia, mostly white and petite, is a bit reserved but warms up to affection and is gradually becoming more interactive with humans. Despite her shyness, she joins in playtime with her sister as an observer rather than an active participant. Their close bond is evident as they delight in playing with their tunnel toy and communicate through quiet chatter. They share a special connection and enjoy grooming sessions. Both cats have a passion for food and treats and must be adopted together.    Ferals and Kittens and Cats Oh My

    		Introducing Street, a delightful two-year-old black and white cat on a mission to find his forever home! Rescued from a dusty garage, he is an affectionate and lively furball who loves being around other cats.  Street enjoys relaxing by the door, always eager for a new adventure. To ensure he stays safe and secure, a home without young children and no dogs would be best for him.

    Yes, although my name is Astro, you do not have to be George Jetson to adopt me!!!!!! I have been waiting a long time for a home.  Astro is about 8 1/2 years old, and he weighs 70 pounds. This big handsome guy knows how to sit and shake for treats. Astro will probably chase cats, and may do best in a home without them. We recommend a home with older kids - 12 and up would be ideal, as Astro likes to play rough with his toys, and can be grabby with food and treats. Astro must meet any resident dog(s) in a potential new home to make sure they get along.  * Astro qualifies for the shelter's Adult Companion Program for adopters aged 50+ Available for Adoption at the Humane Society of Wayne County, Lyons NY

    		 Rosie is about 5 years old, and she weighs about 55 pounds. This cheerful, energetic girl knows how to sit and shake for treats, is housebroken, and crate trained. Rosie's previous owner writes, "Rosie is best in a home without other dogs and cats. She is not bothered by children, but can be pushy so probably best with older kids. Rosie loves to sit, lay, and sleep close to you. She looks for time each day to snuggle under a blanket by your side."    Available for Adoption at the Humane Society of Wayne County, Lyons NY
    Carolina is one of our longest residents and has been overlooked for too long! This floofy princess will be very visible in your home (especially if there's food) but isn't underfoot or inclined to be a lap cat. Carolina likes people to ask permission to touch her fluff and won't harass your visitors. An adult home would be best for her, and other cats are fine as long as they don't expect a playmate. A dog in the home will depend on the dog. Pet Adoption Network,  Rochester NY   585 338-9175
    		Gracie is about 1 yr old.  She is very playful, enjoys her toys, and is quite fond of her Temptation treats!  Gracie is very good company, but does not enjoy being picked up or held.  We believe she did not have the opportunity as a kitten and it makes her uncomfortable. She likes to play with friendly cats, and is currently getting along with Cora.  Gracie would do well in a stable home without very young kids or dogs.  She deserves a loving home, and is sure to blossom once she's comfortable.  All she needs is a chance to prove herself.

    Betsy)(Bessie) is a huge lovebug. She can be found most days hanging out in the kitchen of the rescue, where most of the action takes place. She loves pets and loves to play. Her fur is soft and she takes good care of it. She did have kittens, who are long gone, but she is still here. Bessie would love a home where she would get a ton of love and attention.

    		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.

    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
    Ash had a hard start to life when she was rescued by the fire department in the city of Rochester. She is now a playful kitten looking for a new home.

    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

    Max is a 5 month old mixed breed pup who is ready to find his forever home!  He’s a high energy pup who is looking for an active family, but he’s also so smart! He waits by the door to go outside, is kennel trained, and loves his squeaky and chew toys. He loves to play with people, and is still learning basic manners. He likes to sit and watch nature outside with you too.  Rescued Treasures Pet Adoptions    Email.
    Meet Dove! This sweet baby is looking for her forever home! She is super sweet and full of life for being 10 years old! Sometimes new things can be scary for Dove, but with time and patience she is able to overcome those fears and see that things aren’t so bad! Dove is cat, dog, kid, friendly but can be fearful/selective of men.  Rescued Treasures Pet Adoptions    Email
