About Zelda

Zelda just arrived on transport from a high-intake shelter. Currently, her full background is a bit of a mystery, but our staff is dedicated to getting to know her better over the coming days. She hasn't interacted with other animals yet, pending vet clearance, and we will update her profile with more details as we learn. Since we don’t have information on her previous training, potential adopters should be prepared for a little discovery. If you're considering adopting Zelda, please fill out an adoption questionnaire. The process follows a first-come, best-match basis, with no holds. We want to ensure a good fit, so all household members, including children and other pets, should be present during the meeting. Should you find that Zelda is a match for your home, we encourage same-day adoptions. She comes with a spay, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations, and more to help you get started. Ready to meet Zelda? Don't wait, apply today!
