My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Double Adoption with Virginia, #H212578. Virginia and Baxter survived being born outdoors, but needed human guidance to understand the new world they were facing together upon being rescued. A wonderful foster home was found for them, and in a cozy setting, they learned to think of humans as playful treat dispensers which helped them shed any preconceptions about human touch. Now facing a bright future together in Bianca’s Furry Friends, they’ve brought with them all the lessons from that first home, and are hopeful they’ll find a purrament one to collect more happy experiences, one with older kids able to guide them. Fortunately for Baxter, our vets discovered a heart condition and have put a plan in place to afford him optimal health, covered at cost through our Pet Health Centers. He’s fully embracing playtime with his furiends, especially his cautious sister who follows his lead and then some! They’re a whimsical pair of kittens unaware of how much they’ve accomplished and how much happiness is ahead with you!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

When you come down to NSALA an associate will help you figure out what kind of animal will do best in your situation. At that point they will take out the animals you are interested in so that you may get to know them. You will have plenty of time to play and interact with your new friend in our family friendly areas designated for that purpose. When you decide you want to adopt, an associate will help you fill out an application.

Our adoption fees are as follows:
Puppies (up to 6 months) $350
Adult Dogs (over 6 months) $100
Puppy Mill Rescues $250
