Story
Cali is a sweet and beautiful 5-year-old tortie who has been through significant changes lately and would love a Forever Home. She is affectionate and loves to be pet. Though it takes her a few days to warm up, she bonds strongly with her special person. She would do best in a calm home with no other pets but would probably be fine with a calm dog or cat. She is perfect for someone who is looking for a feline companion to snuggle with while watching tv or reading in the evenings.

Story
Say hello to Moon! This sweet guy made his way to Dakin with help from a friend after being left behind by his previous people. He spent some time outside, and is often looking to get back out there even for just few minutes. He's a bit of a sassy guy, and only wants to be pet for a little while. While he loves pets, he'll let you know that touching him is a privilege, not a right! He would be super happy to get his energy out via play. Structured play and bird-watching are the ways to his little orange heart! Change is hard for him after so much, and time to relax in his new safe space is paramount to him feeling comfy in his new home! If you're ready to adopt now and want to learn more about, meet, or adopt this pet, you can start the process in one of two ways: Come on in during open adoption hours Tuesday - Saturday 12:30-3:00! For in-shelter pets (not in foster care) coming in ASAP is the fastest way to adopt. **the below two methods are slower than visiting us** Call us (413-781-4000 x 1) or email us (springfield@dakinhumane.org) for more information about a pet. We are often on the line with another client, but we return voice mail and emails within 24 hours.

Cayenne and her sister Agave are two adorable sisters, about 11 weeks old. They were found living under someone's porch with their mom. They are a bit shy at first but very cuddly and playful once they feel comfortable. They are BFFs and must be adopted together. They would do best in a quieter home.

Story
Bean is a special guy with a big personality. He is social, smart, affectionate and handsome. Unfortunately , while blessed with personality, he was not blessed with great health. He needs regular echocardiograms to monitor his heart murmur and has had a tumor removed from his tail. He needs to eat prescription food otherwise he gets dry, itchy skin. He is a bonded pair with Sprout. I will not rehome them separately. Sprout is bonded with Bean. They were found in an abandoned apartment together where Bean protected Sprout from any outsiders. Sprout is much more quiet and independent than Bean but still loves to show affection by cuddling and snuggling. She loves to be brushed and pet. If you have mice in your house - she’s your girl!
