Meet the HSHV Pet of the week at www.hshv.org/

🦄 Say hello to Narwhal, our latest Pet of the Week from the Humane Society of Huron Valley!

Narwhal is a fun-loving, people-adoring guy whose mission in life is to keep you entertained. 🎭 He treats every single day like an adventure and loves a good play-and-wrestle session! Because he brings a solid amount of spunk and plays a little rough-and-tumble, he’d love an adopter who can match his awesome energy. 🎾💥

😻 Narwhal is FeLV+ (Feline Leukemia Positive), which means he needs to be the only cat in the home or live with other FeLV+ buddies (like his current office pals!). 

While FeLV can mean a shorter lifespan, Narwhal proves every day that it’s all about putting maximum love and joy into the time we have. 

❤️✨

If you’re ready for a life full of laughs, cuddles, and endless entertainment, Narwhal is ready to meet you! Stop by HSHV or visit hshv.org  to learn more about him and FeLV. 🏠💖

All HSHV residents come spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

🥣 🐶 Looking to add a little extra pep to your morning routine? Say hello to Oats, our latest Pet of the Week from the Humane Society of Huron Valley!

Oats is a sweet, smart young dog who is equal parts high energy and high affection. ⚡💖 He’s a super quick learner (especially when tasty treats are involved!) and he’s looking for a dedicated partner to help him channel all that enthusiasm through positive training and exercise. 🎾🧠

Because he can be a little shy and has energy to burn, Oats is hoping for a quieter home without kids under 12. Got a resident dog already? Bring them along to HSHV to see if their vibes match! 🐾✨

If you’ve got the patience, the time, and a pocket full of snacks, Oats is ready to prove that big energy means an even bigger heart. ❤️

Stop by HSHV to meet him or fill out an adoption survey at hshv.org! 🏠
