FARGO — He’s been through some pretty horrific things in his short nine weeks on earth, so it’s surprising that little Fawcett is as composed as he is around humans. He came in to Homeward Animal Shelter just one week ago with a shocking injury: his lower jaw was degloved. That means the flesh, skin and fur had all been…
CASSELTON — Bunny is a girl who you might just want to send out on the basketball court, because for a little girl she’s got an impressive vertical leap. She was found locked with another dog in an abandoned trailer, barricaded in so no one could get to them, severely undernourished, and taken in to the rescue Sheyenne Valley Friends…
FARGO — Just in time for Halloween season, these three little kittens are here to introduce themselves with a very scary backstory. They were discovered in a bucket, an entire litter, near death, and rushed in for care to Cat’s Cradle. They needed to be tube-fed, they were so small, and all but these three are still in the hospital….
FARGO — Sriracha is a spicy little sweetie who’s the perfect combination of docility and personality, which has a lot to do with her species. This little girl is a bearded dragon who puts the leap in “leaping lizards!” She is indeed a little jumpy at first, and as far as it appears, she has not had the benefit of…
FARGO — His name is Buttercup, and yes, he’s a boy, and he’s not named after the flower. Instead, Buttercup, a four- or -five-month-old kitten, was first discovered all alone, only five weeks old, hiding in someone’s buttercup squash patch in Christine, N.D. They brought the baby in to Kritter Krazy Reptile and Exotic Rescue for care, and he’s been…
FARGO — Goggles is the most gratifying kind of kitten — the type of cat that, the instant you pick him up to cuddle him, he starts to purr. This little bundle of fun and snuggles is only four months old, and came in to Homeward Animal Shelter by way of the pound. By then, he had picked up the…
FARGO — These two are the last of a litter of seven that had a rocky start in life, and as you can see from their cuddly and compliant behavior, they’re determined to get themselves a pair of furever homes. Mystic (the tortoiseshell female) and Onyx (the black male) were born to a mom who came in to Far North…
VALLEY CITY — For anyone who’s ever had experience with feral barn cats, sweet Peter is a bit of a shock to the system. He first fetched up in a storage shed on the property of Sheyenne River Friends of Animals’ volunteer Crystal Aakre, and it turned out he belonged to no one in their neighborhood. Amazingly, without what appears…
CASSELTON, N.D. — Storm might look at first glance like a mostly-husky, somewhat-Shepherd, a-little-Aussie mutt, but dig under the surface to his genetics, and you’ll find there’s a lot of different elements in his DNA that make up one very sweet little bundle of energy and affection. He’s about four years old and came to the Sheyenne Valley Friends of…
FARGO — Loki is one of Diamond in the Ruff’s success stories, but it took him three tries to get to his furever home with Diamond volunteer Heather Mitchell. He was returned by multiple potential pet parents until Mitchell and her husband decided he needed to be their “foster fail” and keep him permanently. And that’s part of why Diamond’s…
