SENIOR ALERT! Dyna is a 10.5 years-young tuxedo lady looking for her forever home. She's been with us since February 2024!
Dyna needs...a special home...Real talk: she's a cranky old bat who may have 5 more years left, maybe 10! She does NOT like other cats and is a victim of SINGLE KITTEN SYNDROME! What the heck is that!? It means she grew up without other cats to show her HOW to cat and be nice....It also means she barely tolerates humans...Except that we feed her. She actually DID live with dogs at one point in her life, and as long as they're leery & respectful, she might be ok.
This is a cat who much prefers to be seen, not touched; and is looking for a QUIET, calm home - definitely adults only. Dyna is one of those particular personalities who likes to give affection on her terms and her terms only. She'll approach you as if she wants pets, but really just wants a human to rub on. You might be able to get one or two pets in and that's her LIMIT.
She also likes to have cozy, safe spaces. Dark, gloomy holes? Check. Under the bed where monsters live? Check? Under blankies where she can hide from this cruel world? You got it...Check.
If you have a soft spot for the old and cantankerous, please consider giving this lady a home!
Visit Dyna in our adoption room to witness her endearing brand of charm....!

More about this shelter
Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center is an open admissions animal shelter and is home to dozens of animals looking for their forever homes. We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.
The Shenandoah Valley Animal Services Center began operation in September of 2011. Since opening, we have successfully lowered the euthanasia rates for our community! Our shelter's current save rate is 95 percent, which is the direct result of our dedicated staff and volunteers working hard to finding these animals their forever homes. Please call the shelter with any questions regarding animals found on the website for more information.
We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
