Cashew

Domestic Short Hair

Cashew is definitely a nut! She has a unique personality and does things a little different than other cats. She has the absolutely cutest "milk mustache" marking on her lips. She loves to play with string toys and she loves to be "under the covers". She cohabitates well with other mellow cats, but outgoing cats intimidate her. She would do best in a quiet home with either cat savvy and respectful kids or no children. Would you consider adding this nut to your trail mix? If so, apply to adopt at fatherjohns.org/adopt/ today!

Clair

Terrier

My name is Clair and I am looking to you to be my new family. I am one year old and I weigh 30lbs as I am fully grown. I am looking for a home without young children as I am very shy around any new people. Once I get over my shyness I am sweet as sweet can be. I am in need of a family that can provide me infinite amounts of petting and love- once you start petting me you will not be allowed to stop! I do get along with other dogs, but again, I am shy when I first meet them. I love to play and have lots of energy, but I know how to be calm around the house as well. My ideal home would be a spacious environment where I can get my zoomie needs met. My future family needs to understand my nervous quirks are breed specific personality traits. I would be best understood by people with experience in handling any herding type dogs. I ask you to have patience with me as it takes me time to warm up to new things, but I promise that once I warm up to you I will be stuck like glue to you. Will you give me a chance to stick to you?

Dawn

Domestic Short Hair

Dawn is one of five kittens in a litter who came to us at 5 months old, very scared of people and the shelter environment, but they have made great strides here. Dawn has recently started opening up to people and enjoys playing with toys with us. She is still skittish at times, but when she is settled in you can pet her and get her to melt in your hands with chin scratches. She would do best in a home with another cat or multiple cats. If you were looking for a cat specifically to keep your cat company, or you were considering adopting a pair, then Dawn or one of her siblings could be right for you. Her new home should be quiet and calm, so respectful cat savvy kids would be fine, but young children would likely be a challenge for her or her siblings. Please consider opening your home to one of our kittens who may be on the shyer side. They always have a hard time finding homes, but they will be the best cats when given an opportunity to open up to their new family. Considering adopting from Father Johns Animal House? Then apply at fatherjohns.org/adopt/ for any of our adoptable pets!

Scarlet

Domestic Short Hair

Scarlet is a big girl who is very upset that she is at the shelter. She is our big grumpy pus, we love her dearly, but she certainly is sad to be living in a cage area here. Scarlet wants out! She is a friendly mellow kitty who is being stressed out by being surrounded by other cats and a noisy shelter. When she is stressed she grumbles and turns away from us, which makes it very hard to show her true form to potential adopters. Would you consider springing Scarlet from the shelter? She would so much appreciate her own personal jail break! Considering adopting from Father Johns Animal House? Then apply at fatherjohns.org/adopt/ for any of our adoptable pets!

Huggie Bear

Labrador Retriever

Meet Huggie Bear, she came all the way from Georgia to find her forever home! Huggie Bear came to Father John's with a few other dogs who have found their new homes. She was pregnant when she came to us and one of our vet techs opened their home for her to have her puppies. The puppies have all grown up and have found their forever homes and now mama needs to find hers. Huggie Bear is very shy and will take a long time to get used to a new family and environment. Once she gets comfortable, her personality really starts to come out. She is very energetic and loves to play with other dogs. For this reason we are requiring she goes to a home with another established outgoing dog-friendly pup. Huggie Bear has a very high prey drive, so a home without small animals is a must. She likely wouldn't settle in well with young children in the home, she is not aggressive in any way, but loud noises and fast movement would likely make it hard for her to become accustomed to a home. She would do well with kids over the age of 12. Right now, Huggie Bear is still in her foster home and we would love for her to start meeting new people. We can arrange for you to meet her in her current foster home, so you can see how she acts in her most comfortable environment. She needs a home with a family willing to work with a few quirks here and there. She is a great dog, but she does know how to climb fences, so she will always need close supervision. She is also heartworm positive and is now starting to go through treatment. We are willing to have her go into foster while she is going through it so she can get used to her new home. While undergoing treatment she must be kept calm, no long walks or running and playing excessively. Please consider opening your home to this wonderful and most deserving Huggie Bear! Considering adopting from Father Johns Animal House? Then apply at fatherjohns.org/adopt/ for any of our adoptable pets!

Kiska

Domestic Short Hair

Kiska is a handsome 3 year old tuxedo cat. He has had a rough go of it for the beginning of his life and needs a cat savvy new home that will be patient with him as he becomes more comfortable with his new world. He can not live with a dog. He lived comfortably with another cat before coming here, but seems very weary of his new housemates here in our free-roaming cat room. He can go to a home with other cats, but he would require a slow introduction to the home. He likes to rub up on your legs, weaving around you, pushing into any open hand offered to him. He is not shy with new people, but if you pet him in the wrong spot or if he suspects you are trying to lift him up, he will protest. He does communicate effectively when he does and does not want to be touched, which can be off-putting to some people. We are looking for someone who has had a cat like him previously, and can give him time to trust people again. Considering adopting from Father Johns Animal House? Then apply at fatherjohns.org/adopt/ for any of our adoptable pets!

Bert and Ernie

Domestic Short Hair

Bert and Ernie are a bonded pair of tabby boys. Bert is 6 years old and a little plumper with thicker dark stripes and Ernie is 2 years old with a more regal and sleek build. They came from a situation where a woman loved and took immaculate care of 13 cats ranging in well socialized house cats to formerly feral. Unfortunately this woman lost the ability to care for herself or the cats. Bert and Ernie are somewhere in the middle of that socialization range. Bert is very shy and timid but once comfortable, he relaxes into a mellow "window ornament" of a kitty. He is still surprising us all the time by coming out of his shell gradually. Ernie is much more friendly and social. He loves to watch over what is going on around him. Neither of them particularly like being picked up, but Ernie absolutely loves belly rubs. Ernie is still young and playful and has tons of potential to be an advantageous and comical cat. Both of these boys have come leaps and bounds in their foster home. These two are piloting our new cat socialization foster program! These boys are available to be seen at their foster home so you can see them in their most comfortable setting. Our gracious volunteer foster would be happy to coordinate their adoption at her home. We are requiring these two cats do go as a pair. Bert and Ernie rely on each other and are often found grooming and cuddling each other. They would do fine in a home with other cats. They need a quiet home without lots of activity, so small kids likely are not a good idea for them. If you are interested in the dynamic duo Bert and Ernie please contact the shelter anytime! Considering adopting from Father Johns Animal House? Then apply at fatherjohns.org/adopt/ for any of our adoptable pets!

Because of this, she is no longer accepting of kids or other pets, as she has had some bad experiences surrounding them. She is looking for a quiet adult only home or home with older kids who will respect her boundaries. She likely should not live with other pets. Holly is truly a great girl who needs a second chance at a loving and calm new home! Considering adopting from Father Johns Animal House?

Max

Pit Bull Terrier

Hey there! My name is Max. I am a shy guy who has endured many hardships at a very young age. I was raised with my only friend, an elderly man who took pity on me because I was unwanted. He gave me so much love and attention but unfortunately he wasn't able to take me on walks due to her condition. He did the best he could for me until he passed away and left me alone and confused. A bunch of strangers came into my house, I was so scared I hid from everyone. I didn't want to be near anyone because the only person I ever knew disappeared, I was so lost. Fast Forward to now, I'm having a blast! I've made so many new friends! The incredible staff here at Father John's Animal House, is so patient and caring, and have taught me how to play! I really trust my new friends here and they are teaching me to be even more social. I need someone who has taken the time to understand where I am coming from and see how much I can learn and grow. I need someone who has experience with pups like me, sometimes we are just misunderstood. Once you earn my trust, you have my undying love! Won't you come visit me and find out how sweet I can be?
