Adoption Stories

We receive wonderful stories of TCHS alumni on a regular basis, and we want to offer our sincere thanks to all who take the time to share them with us. We are invested in each and every pet we care for, and we want the best for them!  This is why we do what we do. Why you give, volunteer, adopt, and encourage your friends and neighbors to do the same.

Share Your TCHS Adoption Story:  email your story with photos to pets@tricountyhumanesociety.org or message us on our Facebook page for future publication. We love to hear how our alumni are doing!


Miss Muffin, now Lady Jellyjam

Adopted pets aren’t just a supportive presence for their new humans – they can often help their animal siblings, too!

The 1-year-old cat known as Miss Muffin at the shelter has become an exemplary big sister to a kitten who joined the household.

Miss Muffin, who arrived at TCHS in early November, is now “Lady Jellyjam, because she is so proper, sweet, and petite,” with the tiniest meows. She gets along great with the kitten adoptee, who came from another rescue; they were so eager to meet each other that the “proper introductions” timeline got moved up a bit. “They are very playful with each other and sleep with each other, too.”


“A meow massages the heart.” Stuart McMillan
