Chesapeake Animal Services adoptions for 12/12/2020;
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the town,
The puppies and kittens were each settling down.
They dreamed of a toy and a sweet Santa treat,
A colorful collar or something to eat.
But at the shelter where animals stay,
The critters were looking way past Christmas Day.
They dreamed of a home that would last them forever --
On good days and bad days -- whatever the weather.
The dogs dreamed of yards that are shaded by trees;
The cats dreamed of catnip and life without fleas.
They dreamed of a human who tossed them a ball,
And put their pets’ portraits all over their wall.
Their dreams were disturbed by a loud noise and clatter.
The dogs started barking out, “Hey, what’s the matter?”
The firm shelter roof seemed to shimmy and shake;
The cats were meowing, “Must be an earthquake!”
Then Santa appeared in a magical mist.
He seemed to be checking his worn, Christmas list.
“I know what you want, and it’s easy to see.
At the top of your list is a great family.
The shelter is fine for a short while, I know.
With two squares a day plus you’re out of the snow.
But you guys need a home that’s forever; it’s true.
Let’s think about this and see what we can do.
So “Sounder” and “Alex” and “Dahlia,” too,
Came up with a plan of what they could do.
“Let’s tell all the world that we’re really the best.
As cats and dogs go, we can pass every test.
We’re neutered, we’re spayed, and we’re micro-chipped too.
We’re current on rabies; been checked through and through.
We’re handsome and cute and as nice as can be.
We just need some humans to meet us and see.”

There’s no place like 🏡 for the holidays!
For the 12th straight year, Priority Automotive will cover 50% of the adoption fees on cats like Shiloh. :)
Shiloh is a young male who would love a home of his own. He enjoys snuggles on the couch, especially if snacks are involved. He is a bit of a wallflower, so keeps getting overlooked! We say there's nothing wrong with preferring smaller, more intimate gatherings. 😸
Shiloh loves other felines and is perfectly content to share his human family.
To meet Shiloh visit the shelter during visitation and adoption hours. This gentle boy is certain to win you over. 😻

There's no place like Home for the Holidays!
Starting December 5th and running through December 31st(or until the funds run out) Priority Automotive is paying 50% of the adoption fees on your new best friend.
Scooter and Meko are two eligible bachelors living the life in foster care. 😸
They are absolutely the sweetest duo! At 7 years young, they are still playful but without any of those annoying kitten antics. 😼 No coming home at the end of a long day to a path of destruction through your home. Instead they will be waiting at the ready... to give all the purrs, head rubs and biscuit making you need to unwind. 😻
Scooter and Meko love everyone they meet, including other felines. But dogs are not on their bucket list 😼, unless that dog is as quiet and laid back as they are.
If you are interested in meeting these two, contact our Outreach Coordinator Jennifer Fly at [email protected] for more information. Starting Saturday Dec 5th, Priority Automotive will be covering half their adoption fees, so this duo will be a two for the price of one. Having a Home for the Holidays is the only thing on their Christmas list this year!

Billy is a young and fun pup who is searching for just the right family. He's had a few practice runs, but is still hoping his people are out there and see this!
Billy has been in foster care with one of our volunteers and has been doing so well. Here is what his foster Mom has to say about Billy:
"Heʼs a one year old, very energetic and affectionate pit
mix. Billy has a beautiful tan, brindle coat and the cutest ears! He
loves to cuddle and play with his people and also loves to play with
other dogs. Heʼs smart, knows basic commands and is very trainable.
Billyʼs ideal adopter will be an experienced pack leader since Billy is
young and still has lots to learn about the world. He responds well to
gentle but firm and consistent guidance. And if thereʼs another
playful dog in the home, Billy would be the perfect companion."
Billy is available for adoption while in foster care. If you would like to meet Billy please contact our Outreach Coordinator at [email protected] to schedule a play-date with this handsome boy.

This handsome young man is Baylor! He is quite the hunk and is as equally amazing inside as he is out. Baylor is living the life of luxury in foster care while he waits for his furever family.
Baylor adores everyone he meets, you could not ask for a more laid back, go with the flow kind of boy. He would do well in any home, from active to quiet. While at the shelter he did phenomenal in our colony room and was so tolerant of all the shenanigans his housemates got into.
If you would like to more information or to meet Baylor, contact our Outreach Coordinator at [email protected] to schedule an appointment.

Fiona and her foster brother
Fiona 🐷 was found earlier this week near the Veterans Bridge and taken to Chesapeake Fire Department Station 08, where they called for an ACO. Fiona is maybe a week old, way too young to be without a Mom, but one of our amazong fosters stepped in and is providing her with the round the clock care she needs. In order to continue to provide her with the best care possible we are in need of formula. The best for Fiona is the Enfamil NeuroPro Gentlease, that you can find on our wishlist. The iron it contains is very important for her development. We are asking for donations as Fiona eats like a 🐖 and feeding her can get pricey! 😁 You can order from our Amazon wishlist and have it shipped directly to the shelter!
Here's an absolutely adorable video of Fiona with her new best friend!
**Fiona is not available for adoption at this time. She is a commercial meat hog and will be very large once she's full grown. She's destined for the good life and we will be looking for either rescue placement or a forever farm to show her lots of love when she's ready.

🐹🐹Last week it rained Dwarf Hamsters here at CAS! 🐹🐹
We received a whopping 21 hamsters surrendered to the shelter. They had lived in an environment which allowed them to breed unchecked, so many are pregnant and finding their way into foster homes. We were also able to transfer 8 🐹 (+ some surprise ones) to Virginia Beach SPCA and the rest are ready to find their new homes! They are friendly and a majority of them are living comfortably in same sex groups. Stop in today and visit with these little entertaining furballs! 🐹 🥰

We love a good happy ending for #WildlifeWednesday! ❤️
ACO Bradley and ACO Tobin responded to a call for 11 😮 ducklings stuck in a swimming pool and Momma 🦆 on the sidelines frantically calling for them. While these babies could get into the pool, getting out on their own was impossible with out assistance. ACO Tobin and Bradley were able to rescue all 11 and happily reunite them with their very worried Mom. 🥰
If you have a pool in your backyard, the best thing you can do for wildlife is give them a way out. Whether it's by placing a float(or piece of lumber) from the water line to the concrete or even a FrogLog that was designed specifically for this purpose. Even though ducklings are water fowl, they can drown if in the water for too long. They have not developed the oil in their coats to help the water run off and keep them dry.
#CASloveYOURshelter #AdoptCAS #WildlifeWednesday
We had quite the adventure today! 🐷
Thanks to a generous offer to foster from Lacy Kuller, Executive Director with the Chesapeake Humane Society, Cheez is getting to enjoy the farm life! He now has many new farm friends and appears to be settling in well. Not much phases this pig! Cheez is most definitely still available for adoption, so if you are interested in making this terrific pig a part of your farm(or home!) send an email to [email protected].
