Meet Nina - Our Macaroni Dog of the Week

I am a loving girl who was abandoned by my owner over a week ago. I was dropped in the play yard at the Port St. Lucie facility and left overnight waiting for someone to help me. That morning I was taken in, given a warm bath, and some nice treats. I am such a well behaved girl who has lots of energy and would love nothing more than to play with you and your family. I am very well trained as I am housebroken, know sit, shake, lay down, and rollover! I would be a great fit in any family with children of all ages. 


Meet Oprah - Our Macaroni Cat of the Week

I am large and in charge! My name is Oprah and I am an 8 year old Siamese/Tortoiseshell who arrived at the shelter after my owner passed away. When I first arrived I was afraid and really nervous about being here. I was grieving the loss of my owner and trying to get acclimated to a new environment. They placed me in a big office and I found a nice area to hide. After a few days, I ventured out into the strange world out there and found some great friends. I am finally able to be myself and my big, loving personality has come out. I enjoy getting a nice back rub, laying on my office chair, and hanging out with my friend Milo. I would love a home with a family who is looking for a big lap cat who will enjoy laying around and enjoying each other’s company.
