Welcome once again to the once-a-month animal adoption segment, "First of the Mutt." Ronnie's Awesome List is proud to partner with various rescue organizations around the Bay Area to feature adorable, adoptable, family-friendly animals find their forever home and help your family find a new best friend and fall madly in love.

Hi I’m Miska! I’m a super high energy breed, but due to medical issues I cant explore to my full potential. So I don’t risk further injuring myself I will need an owner who's very experienced with huskies to help me contain my exuberance with puzzle games and toys. I am 10 months old! 

Hi I’m Persephone! It will always be like a sunny spring with me around, and that is something I will be sure to tell you gusto. Even as the weather changes throughout the seasons, with me around I will always bring a warm and beautiful forecast to your day. I am 9 years old! 

Spay the Bay

Spaying and neutering your pets is one of the most important ways you can protect their health! Berkeley Humane's Spay the Bay program offers low-cost spay/neuter services. For more information visit spaythebay.org.

Hi! My name is Clay! I’m a 7-year-old Terrier, Pit Bull mix. My favorite things are fetch, sniffing, and a lot of loving. I’m also a smart boy! I know sit, down, stay, drop it, and wait. I know where to go to the bathroom and where not to go. I love being outside, but I need someone to show me that new experiences are amazing, not scary. Will you be my best friend forever and show me a whole new world?

Good day, my name is Atticus and I’m 5-years-old! I’m always dressed for the occasion, even my nose is paw-dered and ready to hit the town. Being a gentleman, I’m refined and reserved when you first meet me. After you get to know me, I’ll let loose and share my purr and biscuit making skills! I like to play when appropriate, but I mostly enjoy sitting with loved ones and listening to the radio (or a good podcast). I can be your best chum, will you be mine?

It’s Kitten Season!

We have oodles of kittens in foster homes growing big and strong who’ll soon be ready for adoption. If you’re interested in a kitten (or two!) please email our Adoptions department to be placed on our list.

Let us know if you have a preference. Male, female, or maybe one of each? Short, medium, or long hair? Color?

Tell us about your family and lifestyle. Kids? Other pets? Activity level? Hours away from home? Calm and quiet, Grand Central Station, or somewhere in between?

What kind of temperament do you want? Shy and reserved? Calm and secure? Outgoing and full of spunk?

Our adoption matchmakers will chat with you before suggesting a kitten or kittens that would make a choice for you or your family.
