We have some fantastic news to share! Our long-time foster dog Criska, who now goes by the name Crystal, was officially adopted today! During the adoption process, her new owner noticed another dog, Harley, a previous Bachelor, and decided to take him home as a foster to ensure Crystal would have a buddy. We are incredibly grateful for our foster program and the dedicated volunteers who spend countless hours caring for our furry friends and giving them a break from shelter life.

Here is to another rose ceremony in the future!!!Image attachment

No way! Congratulations to them both, Harley needed a buddy

Harley is living his best life. Crystal has always been an only child, so we are doing our best to encourage her to share (The house) and her parents 😅😅 we appreciate Lemhi County Humane Society Inc. for making it easy. Cheers 🥂

🥰🥰 I met harley the other day when he visited my work. I wantedcto take him home! He was so well behaved!

Our Bachelor Sparky wanted to stop in and show off his smooth moves! Can't adopt at the time? No worries, Sparky would still love it if you stopped to say Hi!

But for real, how does this boy not have a rose? We know his ceremony will be extra special whenever it happens!

Such a sweet boy.

We apologize to our viewers for the delay in airing The Bachelor. On Friday, there was a radio ad for our boy Jack-o-lantern, and coincidentally, we wanted to feature him on our Facebook on the same day. However, since Jack-o-lantern is a shy boy and we knew he couldnt handle all the media attention, we let him relax for a few days before the photoshoot. 

He is a charming cat, and we waited so long to feature him because he is a laid-back dude who doesnt like to take the spotlight. But when you give him attention, he loves pets and playing with the wand toy. We hope he wins the rose, as he has been with us since he was a tiny kitten. The positive of being here so long is that he knows how to use the litterbox and scratching posts and is an excellent companion to our other cats. Jack-o-lantern was saved for last because, you know, we save the best for last. (Even though all our Lemhi County fur babies are the best!)

We look forward to his rose ceremony; he is a treasure!Image attachmentImage attachment+2Image attachment

Awwww......lucky Velcro!

We love him lots already!

Yea, yea, sweetest cat ever like my Solace from the shelter

Our Bachelor season continues with a new addition - Boone! Boone is a young coon hound puppy who you may remember from a few months ago when he and his siblings were abandoned on a snowy pass. Thankfully,  they were brought to us by some good Samaritans. Boone has been fostered since then, and his foster family has taught him many great qualities, including crate and potty training. Boone is a fast learner and a real heartthrob. We invite you to come take a look at him on this beautiful spring day. He is sure to win your heart and fit right into any of your favorite hobbies!Image attachmentImage attachment+5Image attachment
