Adopt Howard Today

Tabby - Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male Good with Dogs Good with Cats

Howard is such a handsome, sweet boy - it's hard to imagine he was found on the streets! We are so glad this nearly 4 year old boy is here with us, ready to find his forever family! Howard came to us from another rescue, where he lived with a foster family who had other cats and dogs. He didn't seem to mind living with either species! He lived with them for a year! We don't know how he is with kids, but we think he would be fine with kids who are a little older, who are on the calmer side. He did live with teenagers and was totally fine with them! This handsome guy needs a little time to warm up, but it doesn't take long before he is asking for pets and to be your best friend! He is pretty easy going, and would fit in well in most homes. He's just waiting for you to come meet him! Just fill out a quick adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in any time from 11am - 3pm, any day except Wednesdays.

Adopt Koda Today

Husky - Shepherd

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male

Koda came to us from an overcrowded shelter in Alabama. He was part of a big flight to help start the clear the shelters movement! This handsome boy is about 1-2 years old and weights 40 pounds. He may get a little bigger but he should not get too much bigger. Koda loves to go out on walks and play in the yards. Since he has some Husky in him, he does like to "talk". We have noticed that Koda can be a little selective when it comes to dogs, but it could be the shelter environment. If you think Koda would be a good fit for your family, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Ana Today

Rottweiler

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Female

Ana is a humble beauty, with the most unique and stunning markings. You have never seen a Rottweiler quite like her, so one of a kind and gorgeous! Ana is about 5 and a half years old and she is just the sweetest thing there could be! Her bashful nature may get in the way of her meeting new people, but that doesn't bother those who are patient and willing to wait for her to come around. It really doesn't take long and suddenly she is jumping up to give you kisses and wanting to play with you! Ana has met some dogs here and she can be dog selective and does like the more laid back dogs. She would also do best in a home without cats, as her rescue down in Mississippi says that she does have a prey drive - she is quite the squirrel hunter! Ana is a quick learner, especially if you have treats! We recommend continued training for this angel, she is still learning how to walk well on the leash and basic obedience. If you think Ana would be a good fit for your home, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Miller Today

Domestic Medium Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Young Male

Can you believe our handsome Miller was actually dumped by his previous owners?! Luckily, they're being charged with animal abandonment - and Miller is ready to find his forever family! We don't know too much about Miller, other than the fact that we are glad he is safe with us! Thanks to local Animal Control for bringing him to us, he will now get the best possible chance at finding his forever family. And they will be able to love him for years to come, since he's only about a year old! What we do know is that Miller loves attention! He will even try to grab you if you start walking away if he feels you haven't given him enough love. Like many cats, he's not a big fan of the vet, and can sometimes be picky with his feline friends. He would certainly be happy as your "one-and-only" - probably so he can get all of the attention for himself! Miller would also be happiest in a home without young children - after the tough life he's had up to this point, he'd like a home without too much chaos. Give our beautiful Miller the second chance he DESERVES! Fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to set an appointment, or come by any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet him or our other cats!

Adopt Tucker Today

Rottweiler

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Senior Male Good with Dogs

Our handsome guy Tucker has had a tough go of it lately! His owner sadly passed away, and although some friends were able to take him, he was not getting along with their cats, so they made the tough decision to surrender him. Tucker was then adopted, but returned shortly after due to some medical issues with his adopter that had nothing to do with Tucker. So now, he is looking for his FOREVER home! Tucker is about 9 1/2 years old, but he has the energy of a younger dog! He loves to go on walks, and loves playing with his toys in our play yard! Since he is older, he does have some arthritis in his back legs, but that doesn't stop him from having fun outdoors! He's a little over 90 lbs, but that's 90 lbs of love - he loves to get attention! Although Tucker would do best in a home without cats, he did previously live with dogs. He also does well with calmer children - if the kids are excited, that gets Tucker amped up as well. Tucker is a smart boy and knows a few commands, like sit and speak! And he loves car rides as well! His previous owner also said that while he's not a fan of getting in the tub, he does love his baths, and this silly boy loves ice cubes! Come meet our handsome Tucker! Fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet him!

Luke came to us as a local owner surrender who fell on some hard times. This handsome man is about 4 1/2 years old and about 86 pounds!

Adopt Rowan Today

Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Female Good with Children Good with Dogs Good with Cats

Beautiful Rowan was born to a feral momma, but luckily, she was born in the home of someone who does TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return), so she will never know the feral life! Which means, she's looking for her forever home! We believe Rowan is about 6 months old. She's the kind of kitten who would fit into pretty much any home! She is so affectionate and outgoing, even though she's only been around other cats, we think she'd also be fine with cat friendly dogs and kids, too! Rowan is not only beautiful, she's sweet, affectionate, and she's a "talker" as well! She will literally ask you for attention! Rowan is super social and will stick to you like glue! She would certainly love to go home with her friend Shania, but they could be adopted separately as well - just be sure you have plenty of love to give! Rowan can't wait for someone to love her for the rest of her life! Just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in any day from 11am - 3pm - the only day we are closed is Wednesday.

Adopt Daisy Duke Today

Shepherd

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Female Good with Dogs Good with Cats

What is prettier than a daisy? Our girl Daisy Duke! She came to us when her family couldn't care for her any longer, and we are falling in love with this beauty! Gorgeous Daisy Duke is a little over 2 1/2 years old, and a little under 80 lbs, so she is full grown. Daisy likes a little bit of everything! Are you an avid hiker? Daisy loves going on long walks, especially when she gets to go through the woods! Prefer to stay home and watch a movie? She'll snuggle right up to you on the couch! Ideally her family would be able to let her experience a little bit of everything. In her previous home, Daisy Duke lived with another dog, and even a cat at one point! Since kids make her a little nervous, she would be happiest in an adult only home. She would love to be your number one! To meet this pretty lady, fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in any day (except Wednesdays) from 11am - 3pm.

Adopt Kittens (Male AND Female) Today

Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Male Good with Children Good with Dogs Good with Cats

It's kitten season, which means we have a ton of available kittens for adoption! The kittens pictured are just some of the cuties we have available looking for a new home. We have males and females of varying ages for you to meet! When adopting kittens, it's recommended to adopt in pairs so that they have a playmate to grow up with. Unless you have another playful young cat at home, this will keep them from getting into trouble - for the most part! Adopting a kitten is also a long-term commitment - keep in mind cats can live around 15 - 20 years! Kittens may be available for our "Foster-to-Adopt" program, or they may be adopted based on their age - our adoption counselors will explain the difference when you come in. Either way, be prepared to take a kitten home when you come to meet them! They are too small to be spayed/neutered at this time, but that is included in your adoption fee - we will set a date for you to bring your kitten back to us and our veterinarian will perform the surgery at no additional cost! Are you ready for a new family member? Fill out the adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the email to set an appointment, or come between 11am to 3pm any day except Wednesdays when we are performing spay/neuter surgeries!

Adopt Abigail Today

Pit Bull Terrier

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Senior Female Good with Children

Our sweet Abigail has such a sad story! Her owner passed away, and his elderly next-of-kin weren't able to care for her any longer - although they tried, they had things going on in their own lives and weren't able to keep her. We knew we had to help her, and help her owner's family, by finding her a new home! Abigail is about 7 years old, but she has the energy of a younger dog! She loves her walks, and has fun playing in our play yards with her favorite people! Abigail also loves going on car rides! But in case you think she's an "always on-the-go" type of dog, think again, because she is also a snuggle bug, and would love to cuddle up with you to watch a movie - and give lots of kisses, of course! In her previous home, Abigail lived with a male dog and did fine with him, but at the shelter she seems like she doesn't like most dogs, so we believe a home where she can be your one-and-only would make her the happiest. She has also never been around young kids, just older ones, and she more recently lived with seniors. This smart girl also knows some commands, like sit, come, and she responds to her name as well! Come meet this lovable lady! Fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come by any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet Abigail or any of our other pups!

Adopt Vincenza Today

Tabby - Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Young Female Good with Cats

This beautiful young lady came to us from another rescue, where she had previously had kittens! A story we hear far too often is that a mom cat and kittens come into a rescue, the kittens get adopted and mom waits and waits. Don't make Vincenza wait! She is about a year and a half old, and does well with the other cats in our free roam room, as long as the other cats aren't "pushy" and in her face. So she would likely do best in a home without kittens or other young cats - understandable, as she's done with being a mom now that she's spayed! Vincenza is outgoing and loves to watch you from the window. It may take her a little time to approach you, but deep down she can't wait to be your new forever friend! Fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the email to set an appointment, or come as a "walk-in" any day from 11am - 3pm (except Wednesdays) to meet her!

Adopt Motley Today

Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male Good with Dogs

Motley came to us from a local animal control. He was dumped and we cannot figure out why! This handsome boy loves meeting new people and likes to meet most dogs! We believe he is a cattle dog mix that is about 3 years old and about 56 pounds. Motley has been such a good boy with us without causing too much fuss in the kennel and walking pretty well on the leash. If you think Motley would be a good fit for your home, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Cooper Today

Redbone Coonhound

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male Good with Children Good with Dogs

Cooper came to us from a local family who could no longer take care of him. He is a little under 2 years old and about 60 pounds. This big boy LOVES to play and does like other dogs but sometimes has opinions about them when he is on the leash. Sometimes when he gets frustrated, he will grab your arm or sleeve and start to play with it like a toy. It is something we are working on but he is smart dog and learns quick. Cooper is good with kids, but if the kids start running around and get excited, Cooper does so as well. He would probably do best with older children in the home. If you think Cooper would be a good fit for your family, fill out a questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the email to make an appointment, or come in from 11am - 3pm any day except Wednesday.

Clifford originally came to us from Virginia to find his forever home. He was found a stray and was never reclaimed. This cutie was adopted from us but they had some medical issues and needed to bring him back to us. Clifford is about 2 years old and we believe he is a Coonhound/Beagle mix. He is a good size at about 40 pounds. Clifford loves meeting new dogs and going on walks. In his previous home, he did live with another dog and a young child. If you think he would be a good fit for your family, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Joanna Today

Rottweiler - Beagle

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Female

Sweet puppy Joanna is the last of her litter to find her forever home! Her mom plus nine siblings (that's right, she's one of ten!) have already gone home, so now it's Joanna's turn! This cutie is only about 15 weeks old, so she has a lot of learning and growing to do! She'll need training (although this smart girl already seems to know "sit"!), as well as potty training. She's a mix of a few different breeds, but is about half Rottie and almost 20% beagle, which means we don't know exactly how big she'll be full grown, but we think she'll be in the medium to large range - somewhere between 50 - 60 lbs. Joanna may be cute, but she'll need a serious adopter who will work with her to become the best pup she can be! Because she was one of ten and had to compete with siblings for food, she's showing some resource guarding, but with a dedicated adopter this behavior can be unlearned. Joanna would be happiest in a home without young children, but she wouldn't mind going home with another adult dog to learn from, and while she's never met cats she would likely be fine meeting a feline friend! To meet this cute pup before she's gone, fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to set an appointment. You can also come by the shelter any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet our adoptable pets like Joanna! *Joanna is not yet spayed but her adoption fee includes the surgery. Her spay date is scheduled for 9/13/23. She can still be seen and can be reserved before her surgery. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the shelter.*

Adopt Nahla Today

Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Young Female Good with Children Good with Dogs Good with Cats

Nahla is a sweet, talkative girl who came to us with a few other feline friends when their owners were moving and could unfortunately not keep them. Now it's time for them all to find forever homes! Nahla has such an outgoing personality! Get ready for her to "talk" to you to tell you exactly what she wants - most likely, lots of pets and attention! She is still young, only about a year old, so she still has playful energy, but doesn't mind snuggles, either! Because of how affectionate she is, we think she'd be fine in pretty much any home! She does fine with the other young cats in her free roam room, and previously lived with kids; we think she'd also be fine with cat-friendly dogs, too! Come "chat" with Nahla! Fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to set an appointment, or come by any day except Wednesday, from 11am - 3pm to meet her or our other cats!

Adopt Freedom Today

Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Male Good with Dogs

Freedom came to us from Virginia to find his new forever home! He was found with his sister, Liberty, wandering the streets and a good samaritan took them in. Unfortunately, her work schedule was not conducive to having two puppies. At about 5 1/2 months, Freedom is about 40 pounds. We believe that he may be some kind of Australian Shepherd mixed with some kind of Basset hound or Corgi since he has shorter legs! Since we are not really sure what he is, we think he may be about 50-60 pounds or so full grown, but he may get bigger than that. If you think Freedom would be a good fit for your home, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today! *Freedom is not yet neutered and his adoption fee includes his surgery. His neuter date is TBD and our medical team will schedule his surgery date. Freedom is still able to be seen and adopted. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the shelter.*

Adopt Oliver Today

Feist

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male

Oliver was originally from Mississippi and was adopted from us. Unfortunately, he has come back to us after the family realized he was not the right fit for them. Oliver is a 1 1/2 year old Feist mix would is just about 30 pounds. He can be a little shy first meeting new people, but he warms up and then becomes your best friend! This cutie does have a prey drive and has caught a couple mice in his previous home. He did live with another dog, which sometimes he was a little too playful for, and two cats. Oliver's previous family did say that he would chase the cats from time to time. We think his new ideal home would be active and /or have a fenced in yard to run around in. Also no young children would be best since he does like to chase small things that run around. Since Oliver is still young, he will need some training to help him be the best dog he can be. If you think Oliver would be a good fit for your home, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Sandy Today

Domestic Short Hair - Tabby

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Female

Can you believe this beautiful girl came to us from local animal control? And now Sandy is looking for her loving forever home! Although Sandy was found as a stray, we believe that, sadly, she was dumped based on the fact that she was found near an apartment complex, and she's so friendly! This beautiful girl doesn't mind keeping to herself as long as she has a thick blanket to relax on, but she readily welcomes pets with love! Because of her unknown past, we don't know how she is with kids or dogs - we do think she'd be fine with those who are on the calmer side and can give her space when needed. She does well with the other cats here in her free roam room, as long as they give her space as well. At 6 years old, sweet Sandy is looking for a quiet life, and a loving home. Is it yours? Fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and you can reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet Sandy or any of our other cats looking for homes!

Adopt Justice Today

Pit Bull Terrier

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Young Male

Justice came to us from a family who sadly lost their home, and as much as they loved Justice, they were put into an unfortunate situation and had to give him up. This handsome guy is a little under 2 years old, so he will still need training as he is on the younger side. The good news is that this boy will do anything for a treat! He does know a few commands, like sit and stay. Justice has quite a bit of energy, he really loves to run around the yard and especially play with his favorite toys! He would love a home with a fenced in yard so he can play as much as he wants, but he will be happy as long as you give him lots of exercise and love! We think that Justice would do best in a home with adults, and while he has never lived with cats, he definitely has a prey drive with squirrels and bunnies, which tells us he would be likely to chase a cat, too. He has met some dogs at the shelter and gets along with some, but not all, so it depends on the dog as to who he would get along with. In a perfect world, Justice would be your one and only - he would certainly love to be the center of your world! Justice is ready to be your BFF - just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and give us a call at 973-300-5909 to schedule a meeting with this handsome guy!

This handsome boy is about 4 years old and about 53 pounds. He is a little overweight so he is on a little bit of a diet. In Virginia, they tried him with cats and he seemed to do fine.

Portuguese Water Dog

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male

Our handsome London came to us when his previous family could no longer care for him. Although they loved him very much, they knew it was best for him to find a new family - and we knew we had to help! We are loving getting to know this 2 year old boy. He's smart, and already knows some commands like "sit", "paw", and more! He does have a lot of energy, so he'd love to go home with someone who is very active - whether you have a fenced in yard where he can play ball all day, or maybe you're someone who loves hiking, London would be happy to accompany you on an adventure! London would love to be your one-and-only! He would be happiest in a home without young kids, and he has never been exposed to cats. When it comes to dogs, he can be a little picky, but that's ok - he just wants all of your attention for himself! He will keep you plenty entertained anyway, so there won't be a need for any other pets when you have London! To meet him, just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and you can reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or call us at 973-300-5909 to speak to our kennel team.

Elliot originally came to us from Virginia to find his forever home! He was adopted out but unfortunately they were not able to care for him anymore. Elliot is about 9 months old and he is about 52 pounds. We believe he will be about 60 pounds or so full grown. Elliot did live with another dog and a young child and loved the family.

Senior Male Good with Children Good with Dogs

Chevy came to us with his friend Tahoe when their family was going through some things and could no longer care for them. Although they came from another shelter, they couldn't take them back, so we are happy to have these boys in our care! Chevy is about 7 1/2 years old, and he's also a bit overweight. He's been doing great on his weight loss journey here with us - every day he looses a little more weight and gains a little more energy! He still needs to loose a little more weight, but we hope that will happen in your loving home! This big guy has an equally big heart. He loves meeting new people, kids, and other dogs! He loves his friend Tahoe, and they would certainly love to go home together, but they can be adopted separately. Ideally though, his new home would have another dog to run and play with! He'd also love a family with kids to always keep him on the go! Chevy is a happy guy and is looking forward to meeting you! Just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to set an appointment, or come in any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet Chevy, Tahoe, or any of our other dogs!

Adopt Winnie Today

Pit Bull Terrier

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Female

Winnie is a gorgeous young lady who came to us in a time of great need. Her owner was no longer able to care for her, and reached out to us to find her the loving home she is meant to have. Winnie is a big-hearted powerhouse, and her only desire is to be loved. She is a pit bull, who stands at about 60 pounds, with a classic stocky build. Winnie's previous home could not accommodate her needs as a strong, energetic young girl. She will need a loving home with a generous amount of space for her to run out her zoomies and play to her heart's content. Winnie's ideal home would also have no other animals in the home, as she does not like to share your attention. Her ideal forever home would be with those who understand the pitbull or bully personalities and their needs and requirements as a strong energetic breed. At the shelter and in her previous homes, we have seen that Winnie has some separation anxiety. This can be managed with proper training and medication. It is time for Winnie to get a second chance at love, won't you be the one to show her the compassion and understanding she deserves? If you think you can open your heart and home to Winnie, head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Simon Today

Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Senior Male Good with Cats

Our sweet Simon is so scared here at the shelter! He is used to a calm home where he could get cuddles and love, and is just overwhelmed here. Simon came to us with his friend Miss Garfunkle when their owners could no longer care for them. They both love other cats, and would love to go home together if possible! If not, a home that already has cats would make each of them happiest. We think that, since Simon is so nervous here at the shelter, very young kids and excitable dogs may be too much excitement for him. He did previously live with dogs, but they had a high prey drive and scared him, so a calm, cat-friendly dog may be a better fit with him, as long as he is given the time to acclimate. In the end, Simon just needs a loving family. You can see how happy he was with his previous owner, being held in his arms with ease, versus here at the shelter where he is so scared, his pupils are dilated. Once he finds his loving family, he is going to shower them with gratitude and love, and go back to his old self - and you could be the ones lucky enough to receive this love! To meet Simon, Miss Garfunkle, or any of our cats, just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the automated email to set an appointment, or come in any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm!

Adopt Cara Today

Terrier - Pit Bull Terrier

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Female Good with Children Good with Dogs

Cara here came to us from Virginia to find her new forever home! We believe this cutie is about 10 months old and some kind of Terrier/Pittie mix. Although she has the hair of a terrier, she is has the body type and is super smart like a pittie! At the moment she is about 45 pounds and we think she won't get much bigger. Cara is very energetic and loves to run around and play, especially with other dogs! She would love an active family to keep her on the move - she could keep up with you on a long hike, or simply running in the yard for hours playing with her favorite toys! Since she is still a puppy, she will need a lot of training to help her become the best pup she can be. Good thing she is super smart! We are working on training her here at the shelter, and are constantly amazed by how intelligent and quick to learn she is! Not even a year old, she still acts like a puppy, but all she needs is a little training in a real home. In return, she'll give you all the love you could ever want! If you think Cara would be a good fit for your family, go to www.fatherjohns.org/adopt to fill out our quick questionnaire, and you'll get an automated email to reply to to make an appointment - or come in from 11am - 3pm any day except Wednesday to meet her!

Adopt Cookie Today

American Bulldog - Pit Bull Terrier

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Female Good with Dogs

Cookie came to us from a local animal control. She was found wandering and it ended up that the owner had been arrested and no one was able to take her in. This beautiful girl was used for breeding but now she is spayed! Cookie is super sweet and loves to meet new people and other dogs! We believe she is about 4 years old and currently she weights about 62 pounds. We have not seen her around cats or young kids but we think she would be fine with kids, just a little over excited to meet kids. She does need to gain some weight but luckily she is a good eater! If you think Cookie would be a good fit for your home, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today!

Adopt Miss Garfunkle Today

Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Senior Female Good with Cats

Look at our beautiful Miss Garfunkle! Those eyes are begging you to adopt this sweet older lady - she promises to give you so much love in return! Miss Garfunkle and her friend Simon came to us when their family could no longer care for them. They are very cat friendly, but were afraid of the two dogs in the home who had a high prey drive, which is understandable! In a future home, they may do well with dogs who are much more calm and cat-friendly, but they would also be happy in a home without dogs. Similarly, in their previous home they only lived with a baby briefly; we think they would do fine with older kids who can give them space when they need it. They would love to go home together, and would do best in a home where there is another cat who can help them open up as they transition into your home. Miss Garfunkle is more outgoing than Simon, but may be a little shy when you first meet her. She loves hanging out in her sunny window, and loves gentle pets, too! She is one of the sweetest cats you'll ever meet. She just needs a loving family; someone who will give her patience during the transition period into your home, and then lots of love from there on out! To meet Miss Garfunkle or her friend Simon, fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and then reply to the automated email to make an appointment, or come any day except Wednesday from 11am - 3pm to meet our cats!

Adopt Tahoe Today

Hound

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Male Good with Children Good with Dogs

Our handsome Tahoe came to us with his buddy Chevy when their owners could unfortunately no longer care for them and the shelter they came from couldn't take them back. He's so sweet, we are happy we are able to get to know him here! Tahoe is a little younger and a little smaller than his friend Chevy - he just turned 6 years old and is 70 lbs. Since he's a little younger and more fit than Chevy, he can get around a bit easier, so he's always looking for his next adventure! He loves to go on walks, especially when he gets to go out with his friend, but enjoys his solo time, too. Tahoe previously lived with other dogs, and kids, too! He can be a little shy around new people, especially men, but that usually doesn't last long! Just spend some one-on-one time with this sweet pup and he'll be your new bff! Sometimes he can be a little shy meeting new dogs as well. He would love to go home with Chevy, but can certainly be adopted by himself. All he wants is a loving family to call his own! If you think your family would be the right fit for Tahoe, just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in from 11am - 3pm any day except Wednesday to see Tahoe, Chevy or any of our other dogs!

Adopt Liberty Today

Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Female Good with Children Good with Dogs

Liberty came to us from Virginia to find her new forever home! She was found with her brother, Freedom, wandering the streets and a good samaritan took them in. Unfortunately, her work schedule was not conducive to having two puppies. At about 5 1/2 months, Liberty is about 28 pounds. We believe that she may be some kind of Australian Shepherd mixed with some kind of Basset hound or Corgi since she has short legs! Since we are not really sure what she is, we think she may be about 50 pounds or so full grown, but she may get bigger than that. If you think Liberty would be a good fit for your home, then head to our website and fill out an adoption questionnaire today! *Liberty is not yet spayed and her adoption fee includes her surgery. Her spay date is TBD and our medical team will schedule her surgery date. Liberty is still able to be seen and adopted. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the shelter.*

Adopt Lulu Today

Domestic Long Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Adult Female Good with Children Good with Dogs Good with Cats

"Wow, what a fluffy cat!" That's what everyone who comes through our lobby says when they see this beauty - but that's not a giant fluffball, that's our beautiful Lulu! She's all fluff though, she only weighs about 13lbs, but looks so much bigger! Lulu came to us because her owner passed away, but she previously lived with an 8 year old child, another cat, and also a small dog! So we think she would do fine in any home. She's only about 3 1/2 years old, so she should transition pretty easily into your home and family! Her favorite spot is by the sunny window - you'll definitely need a cat tree or windowsill next to a window so she can continue looking outside and soaking up the sun! She has been through a lot, including teeth removal before coming to us, so she is ready for a loving home to finally relax in. Surely Lulu won't be here long, so make sure you fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and you can reply to the email to set an appointment or come as a "walk-in" between 11am to 3pm any day except Wednesdays.

Adopt Shania Today

Domestic Short Hair

Spayed/Neutered Vaccinated Microchipped

Baby Female Good with Children Good with Dogs Good with Cats

Sweet Shania came to us after being found outside. She's so sweet, it's clear that, sadly, she was more than likely dumped. Now, she is looking for a forever home where she doesn't need to worry about the harsh outside! We believe Shania is about 6 months old. She's the kind of kitten who would fit into pretty much any home! She is so affectionate and outgoing, even though she's only been around other cats, we think she'd also be fine with cat friendly dogs and kids, too! She would love to go home with her friend Rowan, but they could also be adopted separately. Aside from being beautiful (have you ever seen a cat with markings like her?!), Shania is a "talker"! Although Rowan is more talkative, Shania will meow at you and ask for attention. She had just woken from a nap when we snapped these photos, but after a groggy minute or so she was up and rubbing against everyone and everything, asking who was going to pet her next? You could be lucky enough to give Shania all the attention she could ever want for the rest of her life! Just fill out an adoption questionnaire at www.fatherjohns.org/adopt and reply to the auto email to make an appointment, or come in any day from 11am - 3pm - the only day we are closed is Wednesday.
