My story

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

If you look up the word “snookums” in the dictionary, you will see a picture and description of our Tabitha. Tabitha is a total darling. Tabitha is a female American Staffie terrier  that weighs around 55 pounds. She is estimated to be 2-3 years old. This baby is precious on the inside and outside. She was found as a stray tied up outside at a local gas station. We will never know why she was left there but what we can say with certainty is that Tabitha is deserving of a loving home. Her past is in the rearview mirror. She is only looking forward, demonstrating the resiliency and loyalty of dogs. Tabitha is very submissive and has demonstrated great potential with other dogs. As always, your resident dog must interact with Tabitha to ensure everyone gets along. Compatibility with cats and children is unknown. This girl is very low maintenance. She is happiest sitting with you outside in the park watching everyone walk by. She knows no strangers. She is just a doll.  

Tabitha has a torn ACL in her back leg. We are seeking a foster to adopt home where she can rest and convalesce after ACL surgery which we will cover. She doesn’t quite understand the whole “stay calm” mantra and occasionally bursts into zoomies but for the most part is a compliant patient. She is so happy to play with toys too. Her tail wags non-stop. The shelter will also ensure that Tabitha is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and heartworm tested. Please email dogadoptions@parmashelter.org and fill out an adoption application online to meet Tabitha. Tabitha’s adoption fee is $160.

Additional adoption info

At Parma Animal Shelter, we do not adopt our animals out as gifts or surprises. We believe that adopting a pet is a significant commitment and should be a well-considered decision. Therefore, we reserve the right to refuse any adoption to ensure the best match for both the animal and the adopter.

All of our animals are microchipped, tested for disease, vaccinated, spayed/neutered, treated for fleas and internal parasites, and given lots of loving care during their stay with us. We are dedicated to meeting their medical needs and do our best to socialize them.

If you have questions about any of our cats, please feel free to email us at catadoptions@parmashelter.org. Our volunteers are more than happy to provide information about their personalities and any recommendations for the best home environment possible for each individual animal.

To start the adoption process, you can submit an application by visiting our website parmashelter.org. For cats, please use the following link: https://form.jotform.com/223634976258165. For dogs, questions can be directed to dogadoptions@parmashelter.org, and applications can be submitted here: https://form.jotform.com/230706749163055.

As we get to know our animals better, we will post updates on their behavior in the shelter to assist you in making an informed decision.

Thank you once again for your interest in our dogs and cats. We look forward to helping you find the perfect companion.
