Testimonial

A Community Where All Animals Are Valued

“We adopted Bob from the MeowZa Cat Boutique at the Dayton Mall. Bob was so scared and shy that we were nervous that he may not ever warm up to us if we brought him home. The first several weeks were tough. Bob hid from us in any tight and tiny space he could find in our home. The support we got from the staff at the Humane Society of Greater Dayton really helped us navigate the transition and brought us comfort. Now, as I write this, Bob is cozied up next to me on the couch. He has become the most loving and playful cat! His hobbies include midnight zooming around the house and devouring shrimp-flavored cat treats. We are so happy to have Bob in our little family. Now, we can’t imagine our lives without him!”
