Gale
Gale Special to The Star

Gale

Breed: Pointer mix

Age: 2 years old, black and white

Gale originally came from Mississippi, so he’s the true definition of a Southern gentleman. When he arrived at Wayside, he was very nervous initially. Enrolling him in Confidence College at Wayside’s Canine Behavior Center helped him overcome those fearful tendencies. While he still gets nervous in new situations, he’s able to bounce back much more quickly. He loves playing with other dogs. Another thing Gale loves: stuffies! He loves collecting his stuffed toys and hoarding them in a pile. (It’s the cutest thing ever.) Please come meet the coolest dog around.

Mohmi

Breed: Rabbit

Age: 2 years old

This sweet little bundle of cuteness is currently in the foster program through Wayside Waifs. He is super social, so a foster home was the best choice for him to get the attention he needs. If Mohmi could be anywhere, he would be right where the action is happening. His foster mom says he’s confident and social, and she loves when he hops around her, and even hops onto her lap. He loves to play, get petted, and (most importantly) get snacks. Don’t you think he’s the cutest bunny you’ve ever seen? Call Wayside Waifs at 816-986-4426 to schedule a time to meet him.

Ireland Meowsie

Breed: Domestic shorthair

Age: 2 years, 7 months old

Her current mood is a bit like, “no touchy.” But with the right home, a caring family and a little patience, we just know she’ll grow into, “much lovey.” This beautiful girl can still be a little wary of humans, but that’s because she was let down by a number of them in her past. We saved her from euthanasia at another shelter. She was a super duper good mom to her babies at the time and now she’s ready to be taken care of. She’s a great companion to our other cats so would love a home with a feline friend or two and some time to get comfortable and settled.
