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.

Skinny (4yrs) and Chiquitita (4yrs) have lived together their whole lives, and we’re looking for an adopter who will take both fun-loving pups! While these cuties aren’t technically siblings, they’ve grown to become family and couldn't live without each other now. Skinny is the reserved one and needs a little extra loving to make sure he knows he's special. Chiquitita is an all-around sweetheart. She'll warm up to anyone quickly and will show you just as much affection as you show her. Do you have room in your home and heart to adopt this tiny family?

These cuties are looking for a loving new home! Meet Nirvana and Kittie Kittie! We don't know too much about their history except that they're both under 1-year-old. We also know they're bound to be full of kitten energy, curiosity, and cuddles. Their current owners have to move unexpectedly, and just want to find these muffins a good home. Will it be yours?

Hi, I’m Donell. I’m a big ol’ teddy bear of a dog that has a lot of love to give! Couch cuddling is my forte, but I also enjoy interactive toys which help keep me entertained while my humans are away. I am super people oriented and love kids. I am 5 years old! 

Hi, I’m Triscuit. I’m a little wafer of a kitten that goes well with just about anything! Did someone mention playtime….I’m in! But I also love to explore and snuggle, so let’s make sure we get to that, too! I am two months old! 

Buddha is a handsome 2 ½ year old dwarf Rex rabbit. He’s currently hanging out in a foster home where he’s social but also a little shy at times. He's been very good with his litter box. Buddha lived with children in the past where he was fine being picked up but didn't like to be held for too long. Though he preferred the company of people over toys in our Rabbit Romper Room, be sure to offer him a variety of toys - especially wicker ones - to chew on. We think Buddha would be most comfortable in a calm home with older children.

We're busy transferring in adoptable kittens from shelters affected by the fires to help them make room for evacuated pets. We also 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. Our adoption matchmakers will chat with you before suggesting a kitten or kittens that would make a good choice for your family.
