In Honor of Pepper
	For his 10th birthday, Jay Hubner had his guests bring items to donate to HSWA instead of birthday gifts for him. Jay's old dog Pepper passed away last year. He had been an adopted shelter dog and Jay wanted to help other shelter dogs. "He was so happy to be able to help the dogs and was very excited about opening the gifts to see what the dogs would get..." Thanks Jay!

Jamie "Jamie is the sweetest and most loving dog. He brightens everyone's day. Thank you..."		Happy in their new homes! Here are some of the great pets who have found new homes this year through the Humane Society of West Alabama. Read what their new owners have to say. You could find your new family member at the Humane Society.
Cody: "We have added 2 [kittens.] ... Cody tolerates their existence unless they bother him when he is trying to sleep. They all get along perfectly and they go with the furniture, which is a good thing because they sleep so much, they work second jobs as throw pillows. :O) Thank you very much for helping us find him."		Cody and friends
Molly with Mr. Mustard		Molly: "[Our other cat] Mr. Mustard and Molly have been trying to beat one another to the "good spots" on the cat furniture... She is doing her best to win him over, and is slowly succeeding!"
McGregor: "He is such a joy to us and we find ourselves smiling all the time. The advertisments on TV are true, the greatest joy of all is when the dog adopts "you". I just wanted to say thank you for this wonderful new family member. He is totally terrific. "
		Ella: "She is doing wonderfully and she has made a huge difference in Charlie. He is so calm now! He loves his new sister so much. She’s a sweetie and just follows you around wherever you go. We love her!"

All Humane Society dogs and cats are in foster care or at one of our animal adoption homes, and may only be seen by appointment. Please check out our List of Cats and List of Dogs on PetFinder, then contact the Humane Society to make an appointment to meet your new best friend.
