Joe is a hero. An Afghanistan war veteran and Bronze Star recipient, he served 20+ years before retiring from the military.
While you can take the hero out of the battlefield, you can't take the hero out of the man.
Joe became our first adoption through our new partners Crossroads Pets in Nashville, which offers our members a reduced adoption fee of just $20.
Dixie needed a hero of her own.
Dogs over 40 pounds take considerably longer to find adopters than those who weigh less, with dogs over 44 pounds averaging more than 10 months in a shelter til they're adopted.
Dixie needed a hero. Joe is that man. We're thrilled they found one another through our program and our new Nashville partners!
At the East Valley Animal Shelter we have Nickel who is a chartreux cat. She has cooper golden eyes & blue gray wooly coat. She is a very sleepy loving kitty who just wants to cuddle & sleep. Have a big bed or a bunch of blankets & want to cuddle? This girl is the one for you. She is always missed because she is in the back of her cage sleeping. She is a beauty. Call 1-888-452-7381 #adopt

🆘🆘 NOUGAT (ID 268160), 12 YO, MALE– IN MANHATTAN ACC - came into the shelter as an agency on 10/14/2026 – OWNER WENT INTO CARE. 🆘🆘 😿 😿 😿 😿
🆘🆘 UPDATE – UPDATE – I AM PLEASED TO ADVISE ALL THAT NOUGAT’S BONDED HOUSEMATE, MARZIPAN (ID 268161) WAS ADOPTED – NOW LET’S GET NOUGAT SAFE🆘🆘
➡️TBD 11/3/26
➡️ SENIOR ALERT
➡️ MEDICAL PRIORITY – NEEDS MORE CARE AND ATTENTION THAN THE SHELTER CAN PROVIDE –😱😱😱
➡️ TOO LOW ON PLEDGES TO STIMULATE RESCUE INTEREST
➡️🆘🆘 5TH Chance on Emergency Placement List – BEYOND URGENT - NO ROOM IN SHELTER – WILL NOT BE GIVEN MUCH MORE TIME – VERY HIGH EU/SILENT KILL RISK – 🆘🆘 😱🔥🔥😱
➡19 DAYS IN SHELTER – TOO LONG – TIME IS RUNNING OUT
➡️ NOUGAT IS ON THE EPL FOR MEDICAL REASONS - Nougat is diabetic with diabetic neuropathy. He has been started on treatment for his diabetes. Nougat will need daily maintenance with their medical condition and further follow up with outside vet care. Nougat has allowed all handling. This evaluation/diagnosis means that NOUGAT will be given very little time for rescue/foster/adoption.🔥🔥🔥🔥
A volunteer writes: Twelve year old Nougat and ten year old Marzipan were brought to the Manhattan Care Center as their owner was taken into care. They are two gentle souls who must have been such wonderful companions. They are calm, well mannered, welcoming of staff and volunteers (Marzipan is a bit shyer than Nougat), leaning into pets and even purring. Both pets seem to have been well cared for. They have a good weight, a thick and shiny coat, are already spayed and neutered and know their way around people. Nougat, though was diagnosed with diabetes mellitus and is being treated for it. Marzipan is apparently healthy. Both have as expected, senior teeth. Nougat and marzipan are great names for the two housemates as they are so sweet but Marzipan(made of almond paste) is usually white, so I wonder...Marzipan and Nougat would love to go home, may be it could be with you and together(if at all possible)....They are both waiting for their forever at the Manhattan Care Center. What my friends at ACC say about NOUGAT: I can go home today! My history is a mystery and my friends here do not know much about me yet! It is unknown if I have ever lived with other animals or children. I have medical needs that staff will address with you when you meet me. I'm an independent kitty who likes to do my own thing. I am a sweet, social, older gentleman, looking for the perfect forever home! I am a cat that is in need of a lap! I can't wait to be your new lap cat. ❤️ 😻❤️ 😻❤️ 😻
NEEDS OUT OF SHELTER ASAP –
Please RT or pledge, if you can, to save this little one.

💕Meet Sally💕
This sweet 8-month-old girl is about 30 lbs and ready for her chance to shine! Her brothers Jack and Zero found their forever homes last weekend, and now it’s Sally’s turn. 🤩
Sally loves making new people friends, soaking up pets, and playing with her many dog friends in playgroup. She’s energetic, playful, and coming out of her shell more and more every day! 🥹
On her recent Dogventure, Sally showed off her sweet personality and eagerness to learn. She’s food-motivated, sleeps through the night, and loves her toys. She’s still building confidence out in the world and would likely thrive in a quieter suburban neighborhood while she continues to blossom.
✨Come meet Sally and see if she’s your perfect match!

🚨 We need your help.
Our Street Kitty Fund is getting slammed with requests to cover urgent medical care for cats in need.
That’s what it’s for - but we’ve already blown past 2025 numbers, with October still not done! We’ve covered 579 urgent care visits and 479 surgeries… 1/
Big thanks to Dr. Corey at Stream Valley Vets for making room to see Trouble this morning. She’s been limping for the last few days. X-rays clean. Dr. Corey thinks she just pulled something with all of the climbing around she still does at 17 years old. Relief.
