Brownie arrived at the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter after her owner was hospitalized, arriving with other dogs and cats. Luckly, Get A Bull Rescue took Brownie where she is still waiting for her forever home. She’s around 8 years old and is a friendly, low-key dog. She loves to be pet and is happy just hanging out with anyone she meets. She’s well behaved in the car, goes to doggy daycare, and has very good recall. Brownie hasn’t had much exposure to young children, so they make her nervous.
If your home is right for Brownie, please contact Get A Bull at (516) 714-4403, or email getabullrescue@gmail.com
Florence is a hoarding house survivor. In September 2021, over 90 cats were removed from one local home. While many of the cats faced a very difficult time at the shelter, Florence is currently enjoying life in one the shelter’s catteries. She is treat motivated, likes to be pet after slow intros, she’s curious yet shy, and thrives around other furry felines. With all she endured, she slowly continues to blossom into her true personality. Flo (nickname) is independent, shy when first meeting strangers, doesn’t like to be picked up (who can blame her!) and absolutely must go to a home with another socialized cat. She will shut down if she doesn’t have a feline companion to continue help her learn. She has made so much progress and everyone hopes she has the opportunity to see life in a home, around a forever family!
Please consider adoption Florence and one of her cattery friends. Contact the shelter’s placement team at 516.785.5220, adoption@hempsteadny.gov, foster@hempsteadny.gov, rescue@hempsteadny.gov
