Yama - Video

Yama is currently available for adoption in a Milwaukee-area foster home!

"Hi! I'm Yama. I'm looking for a new home and hoping to get one before Thanksgiving. Here's some important stuff to know about me: I am really good at entertaining myself and have some noisy play sessions, according to my foster mom. New people are a bit scary and I need to get used to their smell before I decide if I can warm up to them. Come to think of it, a few cat treats help with that. If I deem you worthy of my affection, then you're in for a treat because I really, really like being pet and will flop around on the floor in excitement and rub all over you during petting sessions. If you think you're the family for me, please reach out to my foster mom with questions or to schedule a time to meet."

If you are interested in adopting Yama, please reach out to his foster parent at rodi0017@umn.edu

Sponsor animals in need!

From food to vaccines, collars to beds, medical care to behavioral support… this work is critical to homeless animals in our community, but the expenses add up quickly. Please consider sponsoring some of the costs of care for animals at WHS!

Please Note

Every animal is an individual and WHS works hard to make great matches for our animals and adopters.  Some animals may have placement restrictions or requirements established by WHS based on shelter observations and previous home histories.  When meeting with your adoption counselor, they review each animal’s medical, behavior, and placement needs with you to help you find an animal who is compatible with your home environment and your lifestyle.  There are no time limits at WHS, all animals in adoption have as long as it takes to find a new loving home.  Stop in and speak with our adoption counseling team today – we look forward to meeting with you.
