Update-Adopted

Amber & Ginger are two adorable orange cats who were adopted in 2024, but had to be returned to the shelter after their owner was in an accident. Although they’re feeling a bit confused right now, they’re both incredibly affectionate and sweet—always ready for love, attention, and comfort. They are now nearly two years old, are young, gentle, and full of affection. Most of all, we hope they can find a home together, where they’ll feel safe and loved—just the way they deserve. Adoption Fee is free. Put in an adoption application below and help us get these girls out of here!

Update-Adoption Pending
She is now around 9-10 weeks old and such a love bug! We think she might have some basset hound or dachshund because she is short and a bit of a low rider. Come by the shelter and meet her or just fill out an adoption application with the link below. If you would like to foster you can call 225-240-7250 or message us on Facebook!

One of the top questions we get asked when someone comes by the shelter is “what kind of dog do you think he/she is?”. Our answer is almost always the same. We have no idea lol!!!😂 Here are two great examples of why we don’t like to guess! The top two pictures are actually from a Rescue out of state that we have worked with before! But the bottom two pictures are of a dog from our shelter!
