THANK YOU TO OUR SUPPORTERS!
You stepped up for homeless animals and answered our call for help in such a big way!
Houston Cares' supporters more than tripled our original goal of $3,000! We are so grateful for you. You make Houston Cares' animal rescue efforts possible. Thank you!
This adorable pup is Sloan. Your donation helps save animals with unique medical conditions like his. Sloan has megaesophagus. This means he has trouble swallowing food because his esophagus doesn't work right. As long as he eats sitting up, he can be a happy and healthy puppy. Check out this picture of Sloan in his new Bailey Chair! #AdoptSloan
Please read more about Sloan and all our available dogs and cats and let us know if you see your new best friend.
#GivingTuesday is about unleashing the power of generosity and community to make a difference. All of you made that a reality!

American Shorthair/Domestic ShorthairFemale
Mistral is a very affectionate little lady looking for a forever home where she will get all the scratches in the world! She's very sweet with humans and other cats alike. She loves getting lots and lots of pets. You can tell because she will purr non-stop! She enjoys lounging around the house in warm, sunny spots and playing with toys by herself. She may be a bit shy at first, but give her some treats and spend some quality time with her then she will quickly feel at home.
Whippet/Terrier, American Pit BullSpayed Female
Hi, I'm Heaven!! I'm a petite tan brindle baby that loves to snuggle up to my person. I'm a little nervous with men at first but if you are willing to go slow and work with me I will open up and be your best friend. I love dogs of all sizes and don't mind cats. I'm house trained and crate trained. Since I can be nervous, probably best to not have small kids in my forever home.
Domestic Shorthair/American ShorthairFemale
I'm Sophie and I have a big personality. I am independent rather than needy and cuddly, and need someone who can appreciate that about me. I do well with other cats and dogs but am not a fan of kids. To be clear, I am not shy or timid--quite the opposite! I am pretty self-secure, to the point that I will let you know when I do not want to be pet. That is who I am! If you can appreciate a strong lady cat, let's talk!
Retriever, Labrador/Collie, SmoothNeutered Male
Meet the dog with the greatest smile, Tango!! He loves to be happy and active and near you to cuddle. Then it's all hooman interaction time. Tango would love to have all of your attention to himself, but if not, he does best with female dogs smaller than him. Kids, especially young kids, are probably not the best match. His new family will need to keep him active and moving. Proper introductions to guests is needed will then smother them with kisses. He is crate (although does better out) trained, leash trained, and potty trained. He is even muzzle trained!!
