A big boy and a queen bee

Homeward Animal Shelter has many animals available, and sometimes they go quickly. So, when you see a dog or cat you feel connected to, make the jump and send in an application.

Everyone needs a pet in their life, and when they are as sweet as these two, how can you say no?

Murphy

Meet Murphy, a Saint Bernard mix who is 1.5 years old. He arrived at Homeward Animal Shelter on March 19.

He is good with cats and some dogs, but prefers not to be around young children, so he is perfect for a young, single, just out of college person.

Murphy is a big boy, so keep that in mind when he sits on you because you’ll be crushed with love.

He’ll sniff you up and down to make sure he likes you, but once he gives you a lick, that’s when you know he’s decided. When he likes you, he likes you and will not leave your side.

Murphy already has many adoption applications in for him, but that does not mean you have missed your chance. Homeward likes to make sure housing and the owner is the right fit for animals.

Minx

Meet Minx, a domestic shorthair Calico 3-year-old female. She arrived at Homeward Animal Shelter on March 20.

She is known as the “Queen Bee” of the cats right now. With her over dramatic tendencies and feelings against other cats, it shows that she is the gal in charge.

Instead of cuddling, Minx needs time to burn off that energy she has all cooped up, so if you’re ever in the mood to play, she is ready.

If you are around young kids or live with them, she is not the one for you because she likes to be the most energetic one in the room.
