There were lots of great shots of Ashley. We dodged the rain, explored hidden places, and had a great time!

Vegas, baby! Too cute for words. This little guy was rescued about 5 years ago from horrible conditions at a pet store/puppy mill situation. He has such a proud mom, and very deservedly so. Sorry, Vegas is not available for adoption.

Jezebel is a beautiful tortie. She was found, abandoned with her food, in Steilacoom. They think she's maybe about 1.5 yrs old. She's available for adoption through Kindred Souls Foundation. If you want a kitty that's a lover and a snuggler, Jezzie's the one!

UPDATE: Jez has been adopted to a wonderful family!

Fiona and Nigel are quite the adorable pair of siblings! They're about 5 months old and available for adoption with Kindred Souls Foundation. Please contact Kindred Souls if you're interested in them! UPDATE: These two adorables have been adopted! Hurray!

Abby, oh what an adorable St. Bernard puppy! She was rescued and is currently available for adoption. I can't imagine she'll be available for long. Her leg was broken, and we're not sure of exactly how it was broken, but it definitely was the reason for her needing to be rescued. She's on the mend now. Please contact Kindred Souls Foundation if you're interested in adopting her. UPDATE: Abby's been adopted! Woo hoo!

Bobby is a 5 yr old lab/cattle dog mix. Bob is so sweet and loving and gentle and needs a truly caring and loving and understanding forever home. He's fine around cats, too. Upon meeting and photographing him, he came across as though he may be traumatized. His owner has relinquished him to Kindred Souls Foundation. We don't know for sure what his life was like, but it's very possible he's been abused - certainly highly neglected. Bob would be awesome for someone who really wants the love of a devoted and loving companion. Please contact Kindred Souls if you're interested.

UPDATE: Bobby's been adopted! Woo hoo!

Here's Mandi. Oh my, what a gorgeous, loving, and sweet young lady! She's 1.5 yrs old, and believed to be a mix of Collie, Husky, and Malamute. She's been rescued by a loving foster mom who got her from a family that kept her on the end of a chain the entire time - and completely ignored. Before her foster mom came into the picture, Mandi didn't even know what to do with a ball! Never had a bone to chew on - nothing! It's amazing how gentle and loving she is after living a life so dreary. She's a special soul for sure. She's available for adoption and looking for her forever home. Contact Kindred Souls Foundation if interested.

UPDATE: Mandi's been adopted and has found her forever home! Yay!

Kitt and Bleu - ahh a sweet and precious pair. These two definitely DO have their forever home with Dawn. :)

This is Jasper. Oh what a sweet and happy little boy! Sorry everyone! He's not available for adoption!

Meet Alley. She's such a cutie and very loving. Approx. 7 mos. old and only 5 lbs. Long hair kitty, grey and white, and her back is a warmer shade of grey - almost a light brown. She was found living in an alley (thus her name!) with other feral cats. She's available for adoption through Kindred Souls Foundation.

UPDATE: Alley's been adopted (by me!) ! :)

Petey is a gorgeous medium haired kitty that was rescued in Tacoma and is currently available for adoption! His foster mom says he's about 2 yrs old, is gentle with his claws, and loves to sit on her lap when she's at the computer. Contact the Kindred Souls Foundation if you might be interested.

UPDATE: Petey's been adopted! Yay!

Santa came to my "Paws with Santa" event in early December (as he always does). Here are a few images from the event. The first two images below are of a puppy (Lucia) and two kitties (Missy and JJ) that are currently looking for loving forever homes through the Kindred Souls Foundation.

Missy and JJ

It's a lot more fun when you can get all of the dogs in the family snuggling up with Santa!
