This is cute. He’s gonna be a good big brother in the future.

Can you help this sweet girl and give her a loving foster or forever home? Out of State Adoption IS Possible‼️
When LILA arrived at the shelter on 5/27/26, she was in heartbreaking condition and desperately needed medical care. Because she was housed in the medical unit, she remained hidden from public view, leaving this sweet girl with little chance of being seen by potential adopters.
Today, LILA has regained so much of her health and has finally been moved to Kennel 3C04. Sadly, instead of finding safety, she now faces an even greater risk. She can be euthanized at any time simply because she needs a kennel space. Even after everything she’s endured, she still hasn’t been spayed.
LILA fought to survive. Now she just needs someone to fight for her.
🙏 PLEASE SHARE, COMMENT, PLEDGE, and TAG friends to help save LILA’S life! Every share could be the one that reaches her forever family.
