Shark's Story

Shark is a bit of a mystery in the best way.<br/><br/>He'll lean into scratches, make biscuits with happy paws, and growl at the exact same time. His heart says "yes please," while his mouth says "I have concerns."<br/><br/>What we've learned is that Shark isn't difficult -- he's easily overstimulated. Shelter life has been a lot for him, and he does much better with a little peace and predictability.<br/><br/>And despite the dramatic commentary, Shark actually loves other cats. He just prefers the respectful kind who understand that friendship does not need to begin five seconds after meeting.<br/><br/>In the right home, with calmer energy and a little patience, we think Shark is going to turn into someone's absolute favorite weird little guy.

The Bridge Home No Kill Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
We require an in-person application for all dogs and cats. A home visit will be required for larger dogs, if they require a fenced in yard. Our animals are only adopted out after they have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Our adoption fees are $90 for cats and $110+ for dogs, $130 for puppies 6 months and under. We accept cash, checks, debit and credit cards. Sometimes the fee will be higher for a dog, if it is a purebred. We mostly adopt locally but will consider all potential adopters. In the event the adoption does not work out, the animal must come back to us. Adopters must sign an agreement to this effect. We will consider out of state adopters, but please call us before coming. We are a private animal rescue. A carrier is required to adopt a cat, adopters need to bring one to transport a cat home safely. We are closed Sundays and Mondays. We are taking appointments for Tuesday through Friday noon to 4:30 and Saturdays noon to 4:00. All adoptions are done by appointment.
