Cinna, a 3-year-old cat, came to the shelter as a stray. She was very scared and unhappy at the shelter. A foster took her in and tried to help her increase her confidence and playfulness. She did very well and came back to the shelter where a few weeks later, she got adopted! Cinna is now relaxing and playing in her new home. She is getting lots of attention and loving every second of it! Her owner says:
"She has really warmed up to us. She hid under my sister’s chest of drawers the first week we had her, she came out for food and to use the litter box. Now, she plays and asks for food and love. Her favorite toy is the laser pointer. We have one that’s a keychain and if she hears it, she runs up to us! She loves to be petted and to take naps. We love Cinna in this apartment and we want her to live a long, healthy, happy life."
​Thank you for adopting Cinna, especially with her suspected feline herpesvirus. Many people don't know that this an extremely common and manageable condition that many cats are exposed to in their lifetime. She just needs extra love, and we're so happy that she's getting that now with you! 

Kiki came to the shelter in June of 2019. A little over a month later, her perfect match came to see her and take her home! She is now named Nyx and is loving life in her new home. Her adopter says, 
"She's the absolute sweetest. Some of her favorite things include playing soccer with her toys, bird watching, and asking for pets by head-butting my hands. She is the happiest that she could be! She has such a big personality. She talks all the time and makes sure you hear her. She has such loud meows for a tiny body! She's my best friend and has made each day better than the last."
​Thank you so much for giving Nyx a loving home and we wish you both all the best! 

Tasha and Tigaro were adopted from us almost 8 years ago. They were a "proud foster failure" by their owner. She says, "They are well and thriving, and I couldn't be more thankful to have them in my life, today and every day. Thank you all for everything you do!" We are so happy that these two kitties are living their best life in their loving home with their golden years still ahead of them. 

Last June, a sad, stray puppy was brought to us. She was missing huge patches of fur, was covered in scabs, and just looked miserable. She was constantly itchy and in a lot of pain. This puppy was Rosalind, now Rosie. When our team examined her, she tested positive for demodectic mange, an inflammatory disease in dogs where mites inhabit their hair follicles and rapidly multiply. It’s a slow process to reverse, but Rosalind was medicated and had many treated baths. Slowly but surely, her skin began to clear up and her fur started to grow back. 
After an entire month of rehabilitation, Rosalind was put up for adoption. She was finally a healthy, happy pup. She loved to run around and play with toys. She went crazy any time you pulled out a treat. Within one week, she found a home! 
Now, her family is so in love with her and she is doing wonderful in her new home with her doggie siblings. Her new owner says: "She is a beautiful girl whom we love so very much! Rosie is the sweetest, most loving little girl you could ever dream of!!"

Max seems to be a very popular name amongst our alumni. Max's owners say: "He’s been quite a good boy. Exceeding expectations every day. He does like to be outside and spends most of his day laying in the sun!" Max now has a yard that he loves to play in, and a human sister to look after. Happy sun bathing, Max!

Haze, now Max, came to the shelter as a a stray when he was just 5 months old. Today, he is one and a half and loving life with his adoptive family. He even has a little brother to play with! His owner days: "He is the sweetest dog, he rescued me not the other way around! And surprisingly he loves to paddle board!!" We wish Max all the best on his future adventures.

​Bobby's adopters are so happy to have found him! They say,
​"He is such a good dog.  We really thought long and hard before adopting and everyone kept telling us when we found the right dog, we would know. Sir Bobby has been a perfect fit for our family. We are glad to spoil him because he brings us such great joy! Thanks to the staff and everyone at the SPCA for the work that you do and thank you for helping to match us to our new family member! Our family is in love with him for sure!"

One year ago today, these lovely ladies from Massanutten Animal Clinic offered to help our animals. They left that day with the a little chihuahua that needed additional attention in a quieter environment. Well, not long after that, one of the women decided to adopt him! Little Red finally got the relaxing environment that he needed.

Lady's adopter says:
"A year ago, we went to the SPCA to 'play with the puppies' and came home with our sweet, Lady! She came to me at the most perfect time and I know it sounds silly to people who just don't get it, but the really brings me joy! From cuddling up on the couch at night, to long walks around our little town! She is a good girl who is really starting to show some manners! If we could just keep her out of the sink and off the counters, we'd be golden!!! She absolutely loves the boys! Moly tolerates her better than any other dog and Dude is her very best friend!! We are thankful for the SPCA and the care they provided for her until she was ours! We love her so much!!"

Rupert and Cedar's adopter says, "I adopted these kittens in October. They are so happy with me in their forever home and the cutest little men in the world."

Niko (formerly Zeus) just enjoyed his first Christmas in his forever home. 

Three kittens came to us in October of 2018 when they were just 4 months old. They went on a transport to Second Chance Animal Services in November of that year and look at them now! Such fluffy and happy kitties.
