Cleo
* Burger and Cleo have been adopted by their foster family! Yay! * Burger, Cleo, Ivy and Poppy were brought into Hamilton Animal Services as strays. They were quite sick when they arrived, and had severe diarrhea. The shelter reached out to us for help, and we were able to pick these wee ones up and get them straight to the vet for treatment. Medication and special food were prescribed, and thankfully a foster home stepped up to take in the little litter. Fostering poopy kittens is a lot of work, and we’re so grateful for our foster families who… read more >>

Saltine
* Saltine has been adopted by her foster mom! Yippee! * Saltine was brought to Hamilton Animal Services after being found outside. No owner came forward to claim him, and we were happy to get him out of the shelter and into a foster home when one opened up. Saltine had a health check at the vet on his rescue day, and other than a cataract in one eye, he is a healthy hamster. There’s no treatment needed for the cataract, but his adopters would need to be aware that he is blind in that eye. Saltine is now settling… read more >>

Pumpkin
* Pumpkin has been adopted by his foster family! Yay! * Pumpkin ended up at Hamilton Animal Services when his owner passed away. When he arrived to the shelter, he was suffering from en eye issue called entropion, which is a condition in where a portion of the eyelid is inverted or folded inward against the eyeball. On top of that, Pumpkin tested positive for FIV. Between those two issues, and the number of cats at the shelter at a critical level, Pumpkin’s chances of getting out of the shelter alive were slim.

Margarita
* Margarita and Avocado found their forever home together with wonderful people! Woo hoo! * Guacamole, Agave, Margarita, and Avocado were rescued from Hamilton Animal Services.

Rupert
*Rupert has been adopted by his foster family! Woo hoo! * Rupert and his guinea pig companion were “found” in Hamilton, and their finder brought them to a local pet supply store to get help. Unfortunately, Rupert’s companion passed away by the time Hamilton Animal Services was called to pick them up. At the shelter, poor Rupert was terrified.

We were so happy that an experienced foster family… read more >>

Gracie
* Gracie found her forever home with lovely people! Yay! * Gracie came into Hamilton Animal Services as a stray and was not claimed. Shelter staff found out that her previous owner had given her away, so it was the new owners who hadn’t claimed her. Gracie’s previous owner gave the shelter Gracie’s name, her approximate age (12), and explained that Gracie’s eye had been removed because of injuries caused by another dog. We don’t know any of the circumstances beyond that. When Gracie arrived at the shelter, she was matted, she was covered in lumps and bumps, her teeth… read more >>

Patton
* After four happy years as a permanent resident, sweet Patton passed away in the loving arms of his forever foster family. When his physical and cognitive health issues got to be too much, Patton told his family he was ready, and they loved him right until the end.

Rest in peace, sweet Patton. We’ll never forget your adorable face. Because of… read more >>
