Our Animal Staff

We are so lucky to have animals in our lives that seem as dedicated to rescue as we are. None of the animals in this section are available for adoption. They are our own pets who help us rehabilitate our foster animals.

Orrin

Orrin has a calm demeanor and a friendly attitude. He shows our foster dogs how to be excellent canine companions. He teaches them to play with toys and respond to commands. Because he leads by example, our foster dogs quickly learn to be quiet and to be gentle.

Orrin is also great at acclimating our foster cats to the presence of a dog. In fact, he likes to give them kisses. Don't worry - they usually don't mind after they get used to it!

Orrin has a blog! Check out Orrin's Observations.

Link

Link is the exotics foster home's welcome wagon! He loves all things little and cute.


Inquisitive, yet gentle, Link helps the small animals feel like family, not food. He has even been known to engage pocket pets in play by sharing his toys. Poor Link doesn't seem to realize that most of his toys are larger than his little foster siblings!

Adina and Bobbi

Picture
Adina is a socialite; she helps the dogs in our care become accustomed to kitties. This stripey, full-figured diva also makes new cats feel right at home. Adina's one flaw is that she is an insatiable gourmand. We try to keep the foster kitties from being corrupted - Adina can open the refrigerator and she has mastered the secrets of tupperware.


Bobbi is our resident senior citizen. Her philosophies include "silence is golden" and "no means no". She rules with an iron paw. Any foster that cannot adhere to her wishes is unceremoniously banished from her room. She does the banishing herself with her single remaining tooth and a wicked snarl. Any foster pet who has met with Bobbi knows that there is always a boss to obey!
