My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Lil 
Chihuahua Mix, 1 year old, Spayed female 

Hi! I'm Lil, and I may be small in size but I've got a heart as big as they come! At just 8 pounds, I'm basically pocket-sized perfection. I'll let you in on a secret - my absolute favorite place in the whole world is curled up in a warm lap, though I won't say no to a fun toy or a good bone to chew on!

Life has thrown me a few curveballs lately. I ended up at Animal Control (by no fault of my own, I promise!) before the amazing folks at C.A.R.E. rescued me. At just one year old, I'm still figuring out this big world, and sometimes it can feel a little overwhelming. But guess what? My foster mom says I'm doing amazing in her home!

I might be a bit shy at first - after all, I've had quite a few changes in my young life. But once I feel safe with you, I'll show you just how much love I have to give. And trust me, there's a lot of it! I may be 'Lil' by name, but there's nothing little about my capacity for cuddles and affection.

Are you looking for a pint-sized companion who'll make your lap their favorite spot? I could be the perfect addition to your family! Come meet me at CARE, and let's see if we're meant to be best friends forever!

Love and licks,
Lil

Our adoption facility hours and location can be found on our website. https://carenorthshore.org/care-adoption-center/

Additional adoption info

See our process and policies on our website.
https://carenorthshore.org/adoption-information/

Our fees include a full medical exam by a veterinarian. This includes a Feline Leukemia and FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus) test for cats, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, deworming and Spay/Neuter. Dogs receive a Heartworm Check, Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper Vaccines, Canine Flu Vaccine, deworming, and Kennel Cough preventative. Our modest adoption fees do not cover the procedures and vet work that we provide the animals. We fundraise to make up the difference. Any ongoing medical needs that C.A.R.E. is aware of are explained fully, (including daily medicine costs), to the potential adopter, and become the responsibility of the adopter.
