A note from Roxy’s new owner:

Who wakes me up in the morning.

Sings me to sleep at night.

Loves her hair brushed.

Needs to be fed, cleaned and loved.

Her name is Roxy.

She brings a smile to my face,

And a song in my heart.

With a nudge now and then I am

Learning how she wants things done.

 Hi there,

Just wanted to let you know that Boo is doing great! What a delightful little cat! Took her 2 days to come out of her shell but now she is this energetic, snuggly little ball of energy. Follows us around like a shadow and "talks" to us in the Maine Coon cat way. She is getting along amazingly with our 10-year old Maine Coon. It's like they have both lived here together for years. I am sure there will be a few "incidents" over the next few weeks but totally pleased with the way it has worked so far. I will send some pics along soon.

Thanks!

Kelly

Good morning!

Thanks so much for being so patient and supportive yesterday as we adopted

two beautiful Russian blues into our family.

Here is a photo. They are warming up to their new environment.

Thanks again,

Rita and Andrew

Just a short note to let you know Temperance is adjusting great at her new forever home. She is so super sweet and such a cuddler. We all love her to bits already.

Salem – our other senior cat who is also 15 - is slowly coming around and I think that they will bond nicely.

She is meant to be a part of our family. Thank you for taking such good care of her.

  

Sincerely,

Joanne, Dave, Braden & Faith

Hi guys,

Time has gone by and I wanted to send a big thank you.

Everyone at Upper Credit Humane Society worked hard to find a home for a troubled young dog that I adopted a few years ago. Thank you for giving this kid another chance. We are so happy together. I've never met a dog more loyal. The kid has his issues, but I knew what I was getting into and it's amazing what stability, patience, and positive training can do.

Years later and his tail still wags every time I look at him. I can't be in a bad mood when he does his happy dance before we go to the park. Everyday I rush home to see that face. This dog means the world to me. You have no idea. Years later and I'm still giddy when I think about him. I'm so lucky I got this dog. We were made for each other.

When he was adopted everyone was so happy he found a home and considered him a very lucky dog. I think I'm the one that is lucky to have him. Seriously, he’s such a good dog. He won't wrong you. He thrives off being a good boy.

Thank you guys so much for saving my dog. He is family. I can't imagine life without this kid. 

Your staff do what they do to better the lives of animals. No one says thank you. Please tell your shelter staff, from the bottom of my and Nero's heart, thank you!

Dear Friends at the Upper Credit Humane Society,

It's already been a month since I arrived at Johanna's. Can't believe how quickly time goes when you're having fun. As you can tell from the pictures, life is exciting. I have my own space filled with delightful things like dried leaves, dried grass, wood shavings and straw. My front door is a tunnel out into the main area of the chicken coop and to a door outside where I can romp in the snow, kick up my heels and nibble on last year's Christmas tree. At night, when the chickens are up on the roost (silly creatures) and the hatch is closed, I can roam around and bask in the warmth of the heat lamp, if I want to, that is. Most of the time I hang out in my own apartment where I get served tasty tidbits (pellets, oatmeal, carrots, cabbage, etc, etc.). 

Did you know that it was my birthday a couple of weeks ago? I turned 66 :-)

Hope all is well with you and thanks again for the wonderful care while I was with you.

Alice Cooper

Dear Friends,

Just want you to know that life is good with me too. For the moment, I'm living in a little room with lots of plants and a cat named Ko-Ko who tells me she hates the other cats. I don't have a very big cage, but I can hop out any time I want. When spring comes, I'll get to go outside with everyone else. Meanwhile, I'm having fun.

Thanks for looking after me too while I was with you.

Josephine

Oreo (previously known as Doug) - adopted Feb. 6, 2014

Oreo and Abby

I just wanted to let you know that the kitten Oreo (formerly Doug) that I adopted earlier this month has settled in with his kitty friend Abby and both are doing well. After a short initial adjustment period, they are now inseparable. Oreo is the sweetest natured kitty and has turned out to be the perfect companion that I was hoping for Abby. Thanks so much!!!
