Mother Nature

Bonded Pair

Who doesn’t love Mother Nature? Mother Nature is a 2-year-old Terrier mix who came to us from Fresno Humane Animal Services.

True to her name, her new city environment isn’t quite what she’s used to. She isn’t quite sure she’s feeling confident with all of the manmade sounds and objects, but with time, she’ll come to learn that it’s human nature, which is nature all the same!

Mother Nature is looking for a home where they will go slow with her, let her build her confidence, and give her lots of pets (she’ll always lean in for those!) Do you have a green thumb? You may just want to meet Mother Nature.

How to Adopt Mother Nature

Our adoption process focuses on bringing people and animals together. Adoption counselors are on site to answer questions and help connect you with your new best friend.  

We offer same-day adoptions, meaning if you meet all the adoption requirements, you can leave with your newly adopted animal that same day. Get started by viewing our available cats and dogs. 

Adoption Requirements

  1. You must be at least 18 years of age
  2. Have a government-issued photo ID
