Female | Nearly 2 years old | Tuxedo DSH | Feline Immunodeficiency Positive<br />

Hello, I'm Elmyra, a super-friendly tuxedo girl with the loudest purr in the shelter. I really<br />

enjoy attention-lap time and couch time are my very favorites; I just can't get enough of<br />

my humans. I also have the most adorable overbite that makes my profile extra special.<br />

Please come and meet me soon!<br />

GOMEZ<br />

Male | 4 years old | Pit Bull Terrier Mix<br />

Hi! I am Gomez and I would love the chance to steal your heart. I love getting belly rubs<br />

and chasing balls with my foster mom. I get along great with all kinds of different dogs<br />

and just love people, big or small! I am very food-motivated and love to chase my tail; I<br />

will go round and round for quite a while, it's so funny! I love to chew on my toys and just<br />

play, play, play! Are you looking for a happy-go-lucky, fun-loving boy? Look no further!<br />

Please give me the chance to join your home and be my much-deserved forever family.<br />

MOOMOO<br />

Male | 5 years old | White & Black DSH<br />

Hi there! I’m MooMoo, a cool, laid-back Cow-Cat with the most gorgeous tail you've ever seen. I'm<br />

big like a cow, spotted like a cow, and udderly sweet and gentle like a cow. But please understand,<br />

the pasture is not for me. I prefer a warm, snug environment where I can hunt and pounce to<br />

my heart's content. Moreover, I just love to lend a helping paw when you need it. I will be your<br />

go-to work assistant who sits by your side (or on your keyboard) ready to offer my specialized<br />

professional support. And if you happen to be on a Zoom call, I will steal the spotlight with my<br />

charming Cow-Cat antics. <strong>The</strong> best part is, I'm not just a fun, friendly, helpful guy, I'm also a<br />

mellow baby. Feel free to rock me like the chunky<br />

precious darling I am and let my moo-purrs soothe<br />

you after all those taxing meetings. I'm here waiting<br />

patiently, so come and find me today!<br />
