A great deal of activity has been going on at Have A Heart Pet Shelter and there is much more on the horizon. The third (and final for 2022) Volunteer Low Cost Spay and Neuter Clinic was held last week, during which 63 cats and 52 dogs were sterilized. Just imagine how many unwanted kittens …
Hello there! We’re writing from Have a Heart headquarters to let you know we have been chosen as Pets of the Week! Not to brag, but that makes us pretty special and we hope you’ll agree. Nothing would make us happier than for someone to come for a meet-and-greet and decide to take us home. …
Weather forecast: It’s been hot. It’s currently hot. And there’s a 100% chance of it continuing to be hot for the foreseeable future! That’s not just tough on us humans, but on our pets as well. If they are outside, please make sure they have access to shade and plenty of clean water. Sadly, hundreds …
Last week, we featured some of the adorable puppies available for adoption at Have a Heart Pet Shelter. So in the interest of “equal time” and “fair play,” this week we’re spotlighting just two of our 25 kittens currently looking for their new, furever people. First up, we have Bossie.

Furbabies that are bored or stressed from being in the shelter will often start exhibiting …

But, as always, it seems that as fast as we adopt out cats, dogs, kittens, and puppies…more come in. This week we’d like our readers to meet three very special furbabies. First up is Trooper. This …
This week we want to introduce three very special dogs. All three are so sweet and loving, but all were surrendered recently because, unfortunately, they tend to go after chickens. There are ways to avoid this, but it takes some time. You can conduct a quick Google search to find the steps involved to train …
Oh my goodness! This week, in the canine category, we have a couple of real cuties! Allow us to introduce Pete and RePete, two adorable brothers found as strays (believed to have been dumped) on MC 4044. Two very kind women picked them up and reached out to Have a Heart for assistance. As is …
Hello there, Have a Heart friends! Zachary here, reporting from the shelter. Yes, I’m a cat so I had some help to type this. But that’s exactly what we want to talk about today…the need for volunteers! Along with the other Pet of the Week, Brooke, we’d like to chat with you a bit. Did …
