Walter

Breed: Terrier / Mix
Gender: Male

Hi, my name is Walter! I am currently in foster care. If you are interested in me, please contact our Foster Coordinator at [email protected] or 503-988-6247 to set up a time to meet me! Here are some notes from my foster mom: "Walter is a sweet boy who has blossomed in a warm, loving environment after living on the streets of Portland. He is looking for a quiet and safe place to lie in the sun (or on your lap) and rest his bones. He's had a hard life and a chemical burn has left him with scars and no hair on his body. (He loves his fleece coat.) He is very food motivated which has allowed a lot of progress in teaching him to trust people again. He has made a 180! Walter is afraid of riding in cars and would be happy to be a home body. This old boy needs someone who wants to give him peace in his elder years. His days of walks and playing have been replaced with cuddling, a wag/bark of greeting, spirited meal time excitement, and a lot of naps. Please consider giving Walter a second shot at having a good life." I am housebroken and fine with other dogs and cats, though I should probably go to a home with dogs that won't step on me or try to play rough with me. My rear legs are atrophied so I use them both at the same time and get around fair. I can even use a stool to jump up on the sofa! I would like to be carried up and down more than 2 stairs so I don't hurt myself. My foster mom is working on my leash training, but I still have a ways to go before I have it totally figured out. I need to go out every 4-6 hours during the day so I would be most comfortable with someone that isn’t gone all day. I am mostly deaf but have gotten used to hand gestures. Please ask about me today! I need a place to call home for my last years

Porter

Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Hey Porter, where ya heading? This handsome guy was found wandering lost outside, not a good place for a cool guy like Porter! He's 3-years-old, already neutered, and prefers a low-key existence - sunny places to nap, toys to play with when the mood strikes him, and a warm lap to cuddle on. He will fare best in a home with adults or older children; another mellow cat might work out with a nice, patient introduction. Other cats weren't very kind to Porter during his outdoor walk-about! Come down and meet this fantastic boy today.

Tinker Winker

Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult

Hi there! My name is Tinker Winker and I am currently in foster care. If you are interested in me, contact Alix, the Foster Coordinator, at [email protected] or 971-201-1513 to set up a time to meet me! I don't do well with change, and it takes me a while to adjust to new places, so I will need patient adopters that will give me a week or two to come out of my shell. Once I get to know you, I am playful and very loving. Anyone with a lazer pointer will win me over in no time. I would like to go to a home with no other pets and kids 12 and older, or no kids. I am about 6 years old and weigh 8 pounds. Ask about me today!

Vanessa

Breed: Domestic Medium Hair/ Mix
Gender: Female

My name is Vanessa and I am in foster care with my brother Van (563919). if you are interested in me, contact Alix, the Foster Coordinator at [email protected] or 971-201-1513 to set up a time to meet me. I am a great little kitty with an interesting half orange and half tabby sweet little face and the softest fur. My brother and I are working on being brave and we both would do best in a home that knows it will take time for us to show you how amazing we are. I am great with my foster mom, and if you give me a couple of weeks to settle in (and lots of play time!) I will be great with you too. I love to play with my DaBird wand toy – my foster mom thinks the key to increasing my confidence is going lots and lots of play time and I agree! Ask about adopting me today!
