Valentine’s Day Pet Safety

Spending Valentine’s Day with your special someone? If they’re a pet parent, there are a few things you should leave out of your romantic evening:  Toxic flowers and plants Roses are a Valentine’s Day staple, but they can cause stomach upset in pets, and their thorns can be dangerous if swallowed. Tulips are also toxic […]

Meet Lotus

I got Lotus for my Mastiff x because he lost his long time partner and was lonely and not eating. Lotus has done incredibly well learning sit, come, that’s not your bowl, and all the doggie basics. She is housebroken and even wakes me up if she needs to go out in the middle of […]

Meet Jinx

We’ve fostered kittens, but JINX (formerly Candace) is our first foster fail. She’s looking forward to our next foster friends, so she can teach them how to turn on the cuteness for their headshots.

Meet August (Formerly Ewok)

When we first met August (Ewok) back in August 2021, he was very shy and timid. The staff informed us that he would often hide whenever someone would approach him and he wouldn’t eat much food except for hot dogs. They told us that it would take some time (maybe 3 months) for him to […]

Meet Oliver

We went to the shelter with Aurora in mind and fell in love with Oliver too. They have slowly become buddies and love to play all day. Oliver is an absolute cuddle bug. He loves to lay in our arms 24/7. He is such a sweet affectionate boy and he’s stolen our hearts. He instantly […]

Meet Aurora

When we saw Aurora, we knew we had to give her a loving home. She had been at the shelter almost a month, she was so so scared and traumatized, the shelter staff weren’t able to pet her or even get near her. She wasn’t eating and wouldn’t allow the vet to examine her. We […]

Meet Garbo

Garbo’s been living with me for a couple years now. Pasadena Humane contacted a friend of mine when he first came in. He is a Central American Spiny-tailed iguana, often called “Garrobo” by locals, hence his name. I had to procure a large enclosure for him and work out heating and ventilation issues since it […]

Meet Oracle (Formerly Felicity)

Just wanted to share this happy update for Oracle (formerly Felicity), who I fostered then adopted in early June. Her eyesight was severely compromised by bacterial and viral infections; so I found a wonderful ophthalmologist who prescribed an aggressive, twice-daily regimen of topical antibiotics. Six months later, her vision has been restored and she’s a […]
