A Friend for Nutty

I adopted Donut back in January 2017. I was looking for a second cat as I wanted to give my first cat, Nutty a friend. When I first saw Donut and said “hi” to him at the shelter, he immediately meowed at me and rubbed his face against the cage. It was love at first […]

Meet Velvet

I was new at my job here at Pasadena Humane, but I knew I was embarking on a very rewarding experience. I loved walking around saying Hello to all the animals in our care. I would visit some of the animals behind the scenes, in areas of the shelter where the public was not allowed. […]
