I am cuter and more lovable than pirate Captain Jack Sparrow.

Update: Captain Jack is being adopted by his foster mom!

Our Captain Jack is calmer and more affectionate than the movie version of the character, but he has similarities too, most notably with his independent spirit and confidence.

Captain Jack is a great big youngster, weighing in at 15 pounds, due less to obesity than his Maine Coon mix breeding (Maine Coons are one of the largest cat breeds).

He is extremely fortunate to be alive. We rescued him when he was only a few days old (without his mom to care for him). He immediately went into foster care and his foster mom valiantly fed him every few hours to save his life.

Captain Jack was plagued with recurring infections, which cost him his right eye due to immense scarring.

His foster mom has kept him almost a full year to help him recover, but he is now ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.

Captain Jack requires a special needs home, less for his missing eye than for his periodic respiratory infections (which he seems prone to).

To meet this sweetheart, please ask for Captain Jack by name on Saturdays in our lobby when his foster mom brings him for adoption.

Twinkie is the tiniest of dogs -- only 3 pounds! -- but he has enormous unconditional love to share with you.  He is a super cute, super sweet Yorkshire Terrier, neutered boy, 10 years of age, debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA.  Another shelter asked us to rescue Twinkie because of his dental needs.  We had his teeth cleaned and he is now ready for a forever home.  An experienced home is required for his safety due to his exceptionally small size.

Anna Beanie Little Eric Michelle Nicholas Sisters Anna and Michelle , and their brothers Beanie , Little Eric , and Nicholas , are very affectionate babies who love giving you kisses. We rescued their pregnant mother, a Cocker Spaniel named Mary Poppins from a government-funded shelter.  She had reportedly been bred with a Scottish Terrier.  We placed Mary Poppins in a loving foster home and she gave birth to these five angels and raised them there. Mary Poppins is going to be adopted by her foster family.  Her puppies are now 3 months of age, spayed/neutered, and ready for adoption. Please carefully puppy-proof your home and yard for their safety and protection.

Update 2: Jellybean was adopted on November 11th! Update: Licorice was adopted on November 9th! Licorice and Jellybean , brother and sister, are nicknamed " The Sweet Candy Puppies " due to their affectionate, adorable temperaments. They are most likely Retriever mixes and may grow to medium or large size. They are spayed/neutered, approximately 3 months of age, and they debut for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. The Sweet Candy Puppies were rescued after being found abandoned on the streets. Jellybean was injured with a hairline fracture in her right rear leg. We had her leg treated and it had been bandaged and she was resting for nearly a month. She recovered beautifully. Licorice and Jellybean can be adopted separately, but please consider adopting them together for lifelong love and companionship. They are terrific together!
