Become a Guardian Angel!
We are highlighting all the special Dog & Kitty City cats and dogs who have a harder time finding a permanent home. Sponsor one or any of them through our Guardian Angel Program, a wonderful, personal way to make a difference in their lives!
Some cats and dogs are not as adoptable as others due to their age, disposition or disability.
Some have been at the shelter so long that it is their home. As they grow older, they are less adaptable to a new home, so it may be in their best interest for them to stay in the home that they know—the shelter.
Others are shy and retiring and don’t present themselves to potential adopters to the point that they do not get noticed.
Many animals with chronic medical problems or disabilities have a harder time finding homes due to their special needs. We consider them to be dearly loved sanctuary pets.
A sponsorship donation of $20 helps support basic expenses—food, shelter and medical care. You can donate more to cover other expenses, including veterinary care such as exams, bloodwork, vaccinations, and dentals.
If a sponsored animal leaves the shelter, Guardian Angels can select another animal who will benefit from their help. Every opening at the shelter helps another animal in need!

MORGAN
Medium • Senior • Female • Cat

Born 7/15/09
Morgan was found living under a dumpster in Irving on 8-22-2009. One of our volunteers started feeding her and it was very apparent she was a little "throwaway." She responded warmly to attention and wanted nothing more than a tickle and a good meal.
Morgan took some coaxing, as mom had taught her to avoid contact with strangers. Once Morgan realizes you are there for cuddling, you have a friend.
Morgan is not available for adoption but she is available for our Guardian Angel Prog […]

Born 4/15/2015
Shadow is the name! I am a sweet guy that loves affection. I was cared for and brought to the shelter by a nice lady. I am now looking for a nice furever home. I know my chances of adoption are slim because I am feline leukemia positive (FeLV+) and a senior guy, so the shelter may be my furever home.

Born 10/13/17
Hello, I'm Sven! I have lived at Dog & Kitty City since June 25, 2018, when I was surrendered to the shelter by my owner because I tested positive for feline leukemia, and she had other cats in the home. I have always been shy with people, but I get along just fine with the other cats in the leukemia room. To be perfectly honest, I really prefer to stay outside on the catio, away from people altogether. I hiss and bare my teeth, umm fangs, when they approach me to scare them away. When it […]
