Meet Moose and Badger - these sweet boys came in together after being abandoned by their previous owner. Understandably they were a little shy at first, but with the help of each other and plenty of treat offerings they're gaining confidence and starting to come out for gentle scritches and even belly rubs! They'd love to spend their days cuddled together, perched on a windowsill basking in the sun and watching the world go by. We expect that with plenty of time they'll continue to come out of their shells and be great companions. If you're interested in adopting these guys, please fill out an application.

If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
