Valerie's Story!

This sweet, shy girl named Valerie arrived at our shelter on March 9, 2021, starting her journey to find a forever home. Initially, she wasn't the most social cat and kept to herself, but as the years passed, things began to shift when new staff and volunteers joined at the end of 2023. They focused on helping shy and feral cats, and eventually, Valerie started to open up and trust people. She was then moved to our Topeka location, where she was adopted by a family with kids, but unfortunately, they returned her a few months later because she didn't quite fit in. Instead of putting her back in a kennel, we let her roam in one of our cat rooms, where she slowly started to perk up. One day, a kind lady came in looking to meet Valerie, and their connection was instant. That moment changed everything for Valerie, who finally found her perfect match and is now living her best life, getting all the love and attention she deserves.

Snug's Best Life!

Sungs is a 4 year old cheerful guy who arrived at JCHS after being surrendered by his previous owner. When he got to the shelter, his upbeat personality shone through, and he didn't seem bothered at all. Although he was labeled as an owner surrender, his family hadn’t had him for long since they found him as a stray. We shared his story on Facebook, hoping someone might recognize him, and it turned out a family thought he could be their lost cat. After a few visits, they realized he wasn’t theirs, but a wonderful young woman at the shelter was eager to adopt him. She was over the moon when we told her she could take him home that same day. Since then, Sungs has been showered with love and affection from his new forever family and even gained a sister cat.
