We don’t know how this beautiful young cat ended up alone on the streets. We’re so grateful to the person who found him and reached out for help with this friendly stray 😻. Nandi (Indian for mystical white cow) is now in a loving foster home — this gentle guy will soon be ready for his forever family.

Happy 14th birthday, Rocky! 🥰🎉🎂 Rocky is one of SVPP’s Sponsored Adoption pets. When we pulled him from the county shelter in 2022, we were told he might only have a few weeks left. His foster mom wouldn’t let him spend his final days alone — she gave him a loving home instead. Four years later, Rocky is still thriving under her care. She adopted him a few years back, and SVPP continues to help with his medical needs. As he turns 14 this month, we celebrate Rocky and the loving dedication of his mom and every foster and adopter who says “yes” to an animal in need. They remind us why we do what we do. ❤️🩷❤️

We're happy to announce that tiny Sable has found her forever family ❤️ This shy little girl now has experienced mom and dad to guide her and a two-legged sister to show her all about playtime 😍 We can’t wait for updates from her humans as she grows into a cherished member of the family. Thank you for adopting a rescue pet — happy tails, Sable 🥰 🐾 ❤️

ATTENTION: TINY CHIHUAHUA WITH BIG DEMANDS! 🚨

Meet Little Girl — just 5 lbs, 3 years old, and already running the household. 😂👑

She currently has a broken leg, but she’s getting excellent vet care and will soon be ready to zoom around her forever home! 🐾❤️

Her requirements for adoption are simple: 💗 Lap? YES. 👜 Human sling? EVEN BETTER. 🐶 Dogs & cats? Sure—they’re bigger than me anyway. 🍗 Your food? Obviously superior to mine. 🛏️ Blankets? I will be underneath them. 👀 Attention? 24/7, please. 🚶‍♀️ Walking behind your feet? Absolutely. Watch where you step.

She’s housetrained, although she may need a little reminder while settling in. And like any proper tiny Chi, she WILL let you know when she feels she’s been ignored for approximately 14 seconds. 😆

Little Girl is sweet, cuddly, hilarious, and completely convinced that being 5 pounds means she deserves 50 pounds of attention.

She’ll soon be ready for her forever family, and applications are being accepted now! 🏡💕 Apply today 👉️ https://www.svpetproject.org/links

Meet Ricky! 🐾
This adorable 5-year-old, 8-lb Maltese is looking for his forever person! ❤️

Ricky is a sweet, lovable little guy who absolutely loves being close to his humans. He can get a little excited (he’s a tiny dog with a big personality!), but he settles easily with some reassurance. 🥰

He’s working on staying calm around other dogs and continuing to learn his house manners. He occasionally has an accident indoors and can sometimes be protective of his things, so he’ll do best with someone patient and understanding.

But at the end of the day, Ricky is just a loving little companion who wants to be by your side. He’s a joy to care for and has so much love to give. 💕🐶

Could Ricky be your new best friend? 🏡❤️
Apply here to adopt Ricky 👉️ https://www.svpetproject.org/links
