Laszlo
Meet Laszlo, our lovable gentle giant! Adopted from Greenville Animal Care, Laszlo’s early life was spent in a dog colony, but he hasn’t let that hold him back. Weighing in at 116 pounds, his heart is even bigger than his appetite! Laszlo loves nothing more than to snuggle up beside you, resting his head on your lap and gazing up at you with adoration. He’s a true reminder that love can overcome any past.
Sasha
Meet Sasha, our regal queen! Adopted from Foothills Humane Society, she was rescued from a challenging situation. While she may have had a difficult past, Sasha doesn’t let it hold her back from enjoying her new life. Sasha has fully embraced her journey, adoring affection and expressing it by leaning in for cuddles. Sasha is a shining example of how forgiveness can lead to healing.
Ash
Meet Ash, our lovable lap cat! Adopted from What're the Odds Rescue, Ash was rescued from a busy highway where he was found stuck and terrified. It’s assumed he spent his early days as a stray, but now he’s found his forever home at GOC. Ash loves nothing more than curling up in your lap and purring contentedly, especially when he’s surrounded by his two best dog friends, Laszlo and Sasha. Ash beautifully illustrates how trust can change one's life.
