Myths on Cats
1. Black cats are unlucky
Black cats have been the subject of myth and folklore for centuries. Some Chinese believe black cats to be bringers of poverty.

2. All cats hate water
Most domestic cats are not b...

Time to woof out of the dark ages! The only bad luck following dogs is people’s superstitions.
Here are some of our lovely puppies that are waiting for a second chance, to go home with you.
Do consider stopping by our shelter and off-site adoption to say hi and t...
