Abby is a competitor extraordinaire. Keep-away is her current favorite, but she’s always ready to master a new game. With us since September and restless in her kennel, she longs to run free with you by her side. She’s ready to be your sole pet companion and to fill your days with joy. Abby is a three year old, German Shepherd /Labrador Retriever mix and her adoption fee is $100.
Nanna is a very handsome and very loving 9month old Siamese mix male who has stolen the hearts of Greenhill staffers. He loves to be held and give kisses,hugs and when especiallycontent, he is a master purr-er! Nanna has been diagnosed with luxating patellas, an uncommon hereditary condition in cats in which the patella (knee cap) moves in an abnormal position. Some cats require surgery to treat the problem, although we don’t know whether Nanna will need this surgery in the future. This sweet boy needs a forever home with caring and devoted people who are willing and prepared to potentially take on this financial cost. He would also do best in a quiet home without a lot of activity where he would be indoors only. If you would like more information about Nanna, please call Greenhill and ask to speak with cattery staff. Nanna’s adoption fee is $65. Senior Citizens ages 60 or better receive an additional $50 off.
Jess is a 4yr. old, Whippet/Shepherd Mix. She would make an excellent obedience trainee or agility competitor as she is a quick study and highly receptive to people. Intelligent dogs require continuous mental enrichment so she’ll do best with someone dedicated to providing her with new experiences. Jess deals with separation anxiety by escaping and running away, always in search of comforting arms to hold her. Jess has repeatedly experienced abandonment and needs a constant companion to give her the sense of safety she so badly craves and deserves.Jess’s adoption fee includes her spay surgery, current vaccinations, permanent microchip identification, certificate for a free veterinary exam, collar, leash and more! Jess’s adoption fee is $100, and seniors get a discount of $50.
Prior to arriving at Greenhill in September, Lady Midnight was a homeless mother of five. While the shelter’s cattery is preferable to the streets, this green-eyed beauty is in desperate need of a real home. Lady Midnight is 3 yrs. old and her adoption fee is $65. Seniors 60 yrs. and better receive a discount of $50 off all cats!
Remus and Senshi are brothers bonded for life. Remus suffered a fractured leg soon after birth. Now his leg is completely healed and he gets around just fine. These 5 month-old rabbits need a family looking for 2 new additions. Their adoption fee is $100 for the pair.
Hi, I’m Simon! I’m a Boxer/Border Collie Mix. I’m 1yr. old but still very much a puppy. I like hanging out with other dogs and playing all day long. I’m not fond of cats and I’m especially scared of kids. I want a home where I can feel safe, loved and appreciated for who I am. Check out my video on Greenhill’s website! I think it’s pretty cool.
Simon’s adoption fee is $100 and includes his neuter surgery, current vaccinations, permanent microchip identification, certificate for a free veterinary exam, collar, leash and more!
At GHS since October, 3 yr. old Sunset came to us from the Humane Society of Cottage Grove for a second chance at finding her Purrfect Pal. Could it be you? Sunset’s adoption fee is $65. Seniors 60 yrs. and better get a discount of $50!
2 year-old Honey arrived at Greenhill in August along with her litter of six tiny kittens. After 2 months in a foster home, where she tended to their every need as they grew, she then watched them claim their new families in the shelter’s cattery. Now Honey awaits her turn. Our cattery staff and volunteers describe her as a sweet and loving girl who enjoys a warm lap. As a mother, Honey was very protective of her kittens, making her leery of other cats. She would be most comfortable as an only cat. Come on out to Greenhill to meet Honey and all of the other felines who are eager to meet you and your family.
Honey’s adoption fee of $65 includes her neuter surgery, current vaccinations, microchip, certificate for a free veterinary exam, cat carrier and more!
Hi, I'm Pepper! I am a very sweet, affectionate young gentleman who has one tiny little problem. When I get affection from people I sometimes get so excited, that I give love "bites". Sometimes they are bad enough to break the skin. For that reason, I am being housed in my own very special area at Greenhill. You won't find me in the cattery, so if you come looking for me, please speak with cattery staff, so they can take you to come visit me. It is important that I live in an adults-only home with people who understand my quirks. I shouldn't live with anyone who may be taking medications to thin their blood. What I really need is my very own cat whisperer to read my thoughts and my body language. I must live in a safe indoor/outdoor environment. Greenhill would really like to encourage the right person to come out and meet me and fall in love with me, so they have lowered my adoption fee to just $15.
With much appreciation to Jason Miller from KMTR and Sandy Silverthorne!
