It was me or the Legos toys. I lost.

Sasha is a stunningly gorgeous kitten with an affectionate disposition.  She delights in cuddling and bonding. She is a medium-hair Lynx Point Siamese mix with Caribbean-blue eyes.  She is spayed, 8 months of age, and ready for adoption today. Her previous owner stuffed her into a box and dumped her outside our door.  The only reason given for her rejection -- believe it or not -- was because she tries to eat Legos toys. The volunteer who found her wondered aloud: "Why didn't they just get rid of the Lego's and dump them in a nasty old box?" Despite being treated like trash, Sasha is a tremendous treasure!  She has an ocean full of love to share with the fortunate person or couple who adopts her to join their family. Special thanks to Pet'ographique for these captivating pictures of Sasha !

How could they have walked away from us?

Daisy and Drake Daisy Drake Daisy and Drake were rescued from an abandoned house, along with two other kittens and two adult female cats.  All survived the ordeal. Daisy and Drake are now spayed/neutered, 3 months of age, and debuting for adoption today. They are sister and brother, and terrific together, but they can be adopted separately.  Daisy and Drake are as loving as they are cute, just as precious and endearing as imaginable. Special thanks to Pet'ographique for capturing their beautiful spirits in these portraits.

I am drawn to tender people.

Druzil is a distinguished Italian Greyhound who needs a new home.  His previous owner surrendered him due to financial hardship. He is warm-hearted with those he trusts, but initially shy and reserved. Druzil is neutered, 7 years of age, housetrained, crate-trained, and compatible with cats and dogs. Italian Greyhound knowledge and/or experience is preferred for his adoption.

I am all about sharing.

Robin Hood makes everyone feel good, people and cats alike. He has a noble air, yet he is down-to-earth too. Robin Hood is a good-looking Orange Tabby, neutered boy, 8 years of age, ready for adoption today. He is a treasure we rescued after he was dumped and discarded on a doorstep. Please ask for Robin Hood by name when you visit Nevada SPCA's free-roaming Cat Condo playrooms.

Please fulfill our expectations for a joyful future.

Enzo Kenzie These babies have the most beautiful, innocent spirits. Brother and sister, Enzo and Kenzie are playful, bouncy, affectionate, and cheerful. They are reportedly Old English Sheepdogs and they were surrendered to us due to financial hardship.  We believe one of their parents may have been a Bearded Collie, but this is speculation.  ( Enzo looks like a purebred Old English Sheepdog, but sister Kenzie looks more like a Bearded Collie, at least so far.)  They are now spayed/neutered, 4 months of age, and ready for adoption. Enzo and Kenzie are terrific together.  They can be adopted separately, but please consider adopting them together for lifelong love and companionship. Old English Sheepdog knowledge and/or experience is needed due to their grooming needs and for caution needed to keep them from overheating in our desert climate.

What did dumping me teach the child?

Countless innocent animals, like Scarlet , get kicked out of families in order to punish children.  It is a common problem with tragic implications. Caring for animals and making them members of the family, instead of using them as toys, is an adult responsibility. Having children sometimes assist in caretaking duties can be reasonable, but placing the entire responsibility on a minor surely is unconscionable. Then imagine the sense of failure and frustration the child feels when the animal is kicked out of the family.  Just as devastating, the kids are taught that animals are disposable and that they can be used as pawns in family squabbles. Scarlet is now ready for a proper, responsible home where her life will not be treated so recklessly.  She is a beautiful Dwarf & Marten mix rabbit, spayed girl, about 18 months young. Scarlet adores attention and she has a graceful confidence. Please ask for her by name in Nevada SPCA's Lovebugs Room.

We are soul-mates.

Kya Sprinkles These two precious young girls needed us when their previous owner moved away without them. Both girls are one year of age.  Kya is an Abyssinian and Sprinkles is an American guinea pig. They are strongly bonded and need to remain together forever. Sprinkles has asthma so an experienced home is preferred. Please ask for Kya & Sprinkles in Nevada SPCA's Lovebugs Room.
