She's sweet AND healthy... Meet Turnip!

Sauteed turnips at the restaurant are yummy. Turnip cake and Dim Sum are tasty as well. But Turnip the 4-year-old calico sweetie is even better.

As she sits in her perch, she calls to you with her beautiful hazel eyes. When you enter, she automatically plops herself into your lap. Then she purrs, snuggles, and dozes, wishing that you’ll never stand up so she can perpetually cuddle you to sleep. She might need some help from humans to preserve her scintillating calico pelt.

Turnip is a happy-go-lucky girl who is ready to go home to young kids and/or dogs in virtually any home atmosphere. She’s a perfect kitty for first time owners, but she’s not sure if she’d like to share her home with another feline.

So if you know exactly which veggie you want, come in and visit Turnip!

Open Pandora's Box of Love!

This happy-go-lucky 10 years-young Cocker Spaniel has overcome many obstacles – and all with a goofy smile on her face!

Originally slated for elective euthanasia because her owners were moving, Pandora was saved by one lucky phone call. Once we were contacted, Pandora got the medical attention she deserved! After removing several mammary tumors, getting spayed, and receiving a dental, she's been getting tons of love from staff and volunteers.

Pandora’s attitude has never faltered, and she is looking for a home with love to give - dogs, cats, and kids applicable! This gentle soul is a dream, and would love to finally find her forever-home.

Meet precocious Pandora today!

Do you appreciate the finer things in life?

Do you have a habit of catering your life to your cat’s every whim? Do you appreciate the finer things in life? Then perhaps you are Azura’s perfect person.

A gorgeous Ragdoll, Azura was recently returned to Pets because her luxurious fur was contributing to her owner’s allergies for four years! The change startled Azura, to say the least, but she is now relaxed enough to enjoy most of the affection people lavish upon her and the toys they offer. Still, Azura’s strong will means that everything happens on her terms.

If you’re looking for that shining star to revolve your world around, gravitate towards the shelter and find an Azura supernova!

Meet Handsome and Hunky Gryphon!

This handsome hunk of a Boston Terrier is five year-old Gryphon, a very sweet boy who was surrendered at Hayward Animal Shelter due to a degenerative eye condition. And while Gryph does have some cloudiness, rest assured that after being checked out by our excellent physicians, he certainly is not blind and will not be for quite some time.

Gryphon is a sweet, playful boy who comes with a great deal of basic manners training and leash skills. While he does not like every rowdy pup that comes his way, Gryph loves mellow dogs like him. He is looking for an adults only family to give him his second chance at forever.

Come in and meet gracious Gryphon today!

Meet Our Newest Tripawd, Bijou!

Can you spot what’s missing in this picture? It’s one of Bijou’s front legs! This gorgeous gal came to Pets Unlimited from Kings County where she was found as a stray with a poorly healed fracture that necessitated the amputation of her leg.

Though she’s still adjusting to three-legged life, Bijou hasn’t lost any of her affection for people. A sucker for cheek rubs, Bijou also enjoys her luxurious, dilute calico coat being brushed.

Still a young girl, Bijou will probably pick up the pace once she figures out how to hunt toys one-handed. At this point she’d prefer a home with family members teenaged and older, and she’d like to be the only furry jewel in your home. Looking for a rare gem?

Come meet Bijou!
