Shelter Pet of the Week

MEET MICHI AND CHIKI

This week’s shelter pets are the sweet duo Michi and Chiki who came to the Smithtown Animal Shelter from a home that sadly did not properly care for them. They were both badly neglected, covered in fleas and suffering from hair loss. The team at the shelter has been working overtime to show these cuties what love and proper care looks like. Despite all they have endured, this bonded pair are absolutely adorable together. The shelter team is determined to write a new happy ever after for Michi and Chiki.

Michi is a domestic short-haired six year old fella with a striking chocolate seal point coat. His unique look is truly captivating and gorgeous. Majestic Michi might seem shy at first. Chiki will encourage Michi, letting him know that it is okay to show his irresistible personality. Once he’s comfortable, you will learn that Michi, along with his housemate Chiki, are purring, cuddle monsters who will make wonderful additions to one lucky family’s heart and home.

Chiki is a one-year-old female tabby whose warm and loving nature is evident to anyone fortunate enough to make her acquaintance. This little lady appreciates being in the company of humans and is incredibly affectionate, nurturing, and loyal. The snuggle is real with Chiki! She is a great comfort to Michi, assuring that he always feels secure. These two have been through heartbreaking circumstances together, and deserve a lucky family they can love unconditionally.

Both are healthy and will likely do well in most homes including those with older children and pets.

Despite this gut wrenching turn of events, Esme and the team at the shelter are hopeful that her chance at being a cherished forever family member will arrive before her first birthday.

At first she may seem a little shy or reserved when making Esme’s acquaintance.  However, with a little time and patience Esme will warm up to new faces with endless affection and purrs. This exquisite young lady is simply irresistible to any kitten-loving human and would bring a lifetime of joy and memories to one lucky family.

Adopt Pepé Le Pew!

Pepé is small in stature for his breed, but his ability to capture the hearts of dog loving humans is tremendous. This sweet boy was found as a stray, and sadly never claimed.
Upon arriving at the shelter Pepé was initially shy, but once he realized that he was in a safe and friendly environment he began to show what an affectionate and loving pup he truly is. He has the most irresistible and gentle way of leaning up against one’s leg while gazing into your eyes as gentle persuasion for attention and play time in kind. This young and beautiful boy has a lifetime of unconditional love, laughter and memories to give one lucky family. Pepé would thrive in a home with children over the age of ten, doggy siblings, and possibly cats.
Name note: When Pepé Le Pew was found, he had the distinct odor of being recently “skunked” as in sprayed by a skunk. Coupled with his tuxedo coloring and flirtatious nature the team at the shelter named him after the Looney Toons animated cartoon character.

Sloan

“Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.”

~ Maya Angelo

With a name synonymous with “warrior”, three-year-old Sloan is no stranger to adversity. Born into a hoarding situation, she, along with several others, was given another chance by Little Shelter Animal Rescue & Adoption Center. After finding what was supposed to be her permanent home, Sloan sadly again found herself in a situation where she wasn’t able to be cared for properly, prompting her relinquishment to Road to Home Rescue Support.

Sloan

After Sloan underwent blood work along with other necessary medical care, it was recognized that she suffered from a seizure disorder. Already settled into a loving foster home, it was then that her link to Little Shelter was discovered, prompting a collaboration between two incredible organizations. Working together to ultimately ensure her safety, future happiness, and well-being, both are invested in finding the best outcome for Sloan, putting her needs first and foremost.

Making remarkable strides with her foster mom, she is receiving her meds regularly and has not had another seizure under her current prescribed regime. Estimated to cost only $32.00/month, her twice daily medication has kept her seizures at bay and she has received a clean bill of health from her neurologist. She is spayed and up-to-date on her vaccines, as well as microchipped.

Thriving in her current living situation, she is finally able to just be her best self, engaging in playtime and enjoying cuddles, revealing an adorable, funny, and lovable personality. She has harmonious relationships with cats and other small dogs, is crate, leash, and wee wee pad trained (while making progress with going outside) and is just about perfect in every way that counts. Now, Sloan is ready to experience what all dogs deserve, a place where she is loved and cherished as part of a real family, in a forever home of her very own.

If you’re willing to open your heart to this remarkable girl, please contact Little Shelter Rescue and Adoption Center at 631-368-8770 ext 21 for information on how to adopt Sloan.
