Before this year, we haven’t been to an animal shelter. However, this year we have started to visit shelters in the hope of finding a pet to take home. Six months ago, we found Emma in one of the three shelters we have regularly visited.
We never stopped visiting the shelters even with Emma’s adoption. We find time to pencil in a visit every week. One day I thought I’d bring a camera with me. Here are a few of the shots I took.
This past Saturday we came for our weekly visit and found another loveable little kitty. He is an orange tiger male, 5 months old and he’s ours. We adopted another one last Saturday. He did not come home with us because he will need to get some fixings first. I’ll take a picture when he comes home.
Aren’t these doggies cute? On Saturday, we saw another couple adopting a nice little 5 month old doggie. So happy to see these animals getting a home.
There is plenty more posts over at MY WORLD. Please go visit.

So sweet! It’s sad that they don’t all have good homes.
Looking forward to seeing your new kitties. We just adopted our two from the shelter near us, and I can’t imagine someone letting them go.

You show the dogs’ personalities in your photos. The second seems to be saying, “Take me home!”

Adopting from a shelter is the way to go. None of my pets have ever come from a breeder, they’ve either been strays, or taken from people who could no longer care for them. Except our current dog, who was a gift.

They each have a sad story to tell. “Don’t pity them, adopt them.”

Sweet! I’m so glad you got from a shelter — so many sad dogs (and cats) waiting for someone to love them.
I only know of one shelter here in MM, and when we’re ready to get another pet (or two), that’s where we’re going. I’ve already downloaded their adoption request form.

Oh, the darling doggies. They’re so cute.
I can’t bear to go to an animal shelter. Breaks my heart. We got our rescue dog from a farm foster home, where there were lots of happy dogs.
Looking forward to pictures of your cats once you get the next one home.
