Snacking on melon is my favorite treat.



Update: Buddha was adopted on February 1st!

Buddha is a peaceful, serene young adult sugar glider with enormous charm available for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  Please ask for him by name in the Lovebug Room.

This precious boy needed us because his previous owner said he did not have the knowledge or time to care for him properly.

A marsupial, Buddha loves his comfy pouch.  Sugar gliders are nocturnal, they play at night and sleep during the day, so his pouch hung high in his vertical cage feels safe and keeps him out of sunlight.  (His nesting box and being able to climb is critically important, so an aquarium-type habitat is not acceptable.)

We need an experienced owner for Buddha, someone knowledgeable about and/or experienced with this species.  A fresh fruit diet is essential for his health and there are specific woods it is acceptable for him to chew on.  Sugar gliders in captivity reportedly can live 10-15 years.

Like all rescued animals, we are seeking a loving, forever home for Buddha where he will be treated like a member of the family.

Twinkie is the tiniest of dogs -- only 3 pounds! -- but he has enormous unconditional love to share with you.  He is a super cute, super sweet Yorkshire Terrier, neutered boy, 10 years of age, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Another shelter asked us to rescue Twinkie because of his dental needs.  We had his teeth cleaned and he is now ready for a forever home.  An experienced home is required for his safety due to his exceptionally small size.

Bailey is a gentle Cocker Spaniel who was at another shelter with a severely damaged eye.  We rescued him, had his eye removed at a veterinary hospital, and then placed him in a loving foster home so he could heal in peace and begin his adjustment to life with one eye in a home environment.  Bailey is about 8 years of age, neutered, and debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. He enjoys other dogs and adores people who snuggle with him.  Please help us find Bailey a forever home where he will be cherished and showered with affection.
