Pawsitively adorable: Meet 37 adoptable dogs and cats looking for love in the Tulsa area
Ty
I’m Ty! I’m a very large (about about 95 lbs), very sweet cow of a dog! I seem to like other dogs, but I’m not crazy about sharing my food with them, so would need to be fed separately if going home with another dog. I came to Tulsa SPCA extremely matted, so a family willing to keep me all nice and brushed is what I’m looking for in my next home! I am 5 years old and am neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and current on my parasite prevention medications.
Visit tulsaspca.org/adoptable-dogs to learn more about the adoption process and to inquire about Ty.

Taffy
Taffy is a 10 lbs. tortoiseshell female with an estimated birthdate of March 8, 2016. She came into StreetCats in 2021 and was adopted then. However, she was just returned to StreetCats because her owner had medical and memory problems and can’t return home to keep her. She was well loved by the single lady and was the only pet so this same type of situation that would be best for her. She is out and about but she also likes to be in a hidey hole on top of cages so she can watch the five boys who share her room. She has not been around other cats (except in StreetCats), dogs, or children. It was previously noted that she likes to play with toys and to be treated gently – she’s not an aggressive kitty—and she is also a purr baby.
All cats have tested negative for FeLeuk/FIV and are current on rabies and FVRCP vaccinations. All kitties have Home Again microchips implanted and are registered at no charge to the owner. StreetCats is located at 60th & S. Sheridan in Tulsa. We are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. Our website is www.streetcatstulsa.org.
All people wanting to adopt must come into StreetCats and have all members who live with them come in also. We do not adopt out of the state of Oklahoma and prefer to adopt in the greater Tulsa area.

Silver
Hi everyone! My name is Silver! Can you guess why? Yep, I have a pretty silver coat and my fosters thought that would be a great name and so do I! My mom showed up at the house of a nice family already pregnant with me and my brothers, so I actually know my birthday is Jan. 27, 2022! I’m kind of in that teenager range and love to run and play. I could use a kid to play with! I’m smaller than my brother, but my foster mom said that makes me a good size for my forever family. She said that I may be small in size but I have a big heart. Not sure what that means but I do love people and playing with other dogs. Some dogs need other dogs but not me. I like other dogs but I’m totally good just being with my people. I like getting all the attention! My foster mom said I learn best one-on-one. I just like it because I get all the treats! Yay! She also called me a velcro dog because I like being where my people are. That sounds like a good thing! One last thing, I’m a girl that likes a clean room so I save my potty breaks for outside when my foster family takes me out! I’m excited to meet my forever family soon! Is that you?
Silver is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Buster and Cooper
Buster and Cooper are very handsome long haired red tabby with white brothers with an estimated birthdate of March 21, 2017. Buster weighs 15 lbs. and Cooper about 11 lbs. They are bonded and need to be adopted together, preferably without a dog as Cooper didn’t care for the one he previously shared a house with. Buster is very gentle and very nosy about everything. Cooper is more shy but loves to play with cat toys. Both boys enjoy being together in a cat tree. Cooper had a dental cleaning when he came in, but Buster didn’t need one. They came into StreetCats on Sept. 14, 2022 so we’ll soon learn more about them.
All cats have tested negative for FeLeuk/FIV and are current on rabies and FVRCP vaccinations. All kitties have Home Again microchips implanted and are registered at no charge to the owner. StreetCats is located at 60th & S. Sheridan in Tulsa. We are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. Our website is www.streetcatstulsa.org.

Daisy
Say hello to Daisy! We are not sure, but we think she might be a Catahoula and Chihuahua mix, approximately a year old. No matter what she is, we do know she is gorgeous and has a beautiful smile!
Daisy is super-sweet and loves her people hard. She cuddles great and loves napping together. Daisy learns commands quickly and is eager to please. She has been to doggie daycare and did great with other dogs especially those her size (40ish lbs) or larger. Based on her interest level, Daisy would be a little too much for cats, so best not to mix.
This sweet girl needs a yard with a privacy fence since she might like to explore too much! Daisy would do best with a companion dog since she misses her people when they leave. She has a little separation anxiety, but she is working on it through it with her fosters who think she is a pretty awesome pup! Daisy is the perfect size for any family and is ready to meet you today!
Daisy is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Mel
Mel is a small brown and white tabby male with medium length hair and his estimated birthdate is Aug. 13, 2018. He previously lived with a disabled/psychotic person who used a motorized wheelchair, but the person had psychotic episodes & he wasn’t always cared for. The woman who fostered him last summer & then again this year was able to give him to StreetCats so that he’ll have a loving & caring new owner/home. He should be in a single cat home with someone who will pet and play with him.
When he came into StreetCats it was determined that he had a tendency to have bladder stones although no surgery was needed. Therefore he needs to be on Hills Urinary C/D Stress Dry & Wet food for the rest of his life which he willing eats. (This is Veterinary prescription food, but it can be purchased from Southern Agriculture, PetSmart, Petco, Feline Specialties, etc. once the owner decides what veterinary clinic they want to use for the prescription.) He is used to eating both a.m. and p.m. but he doesn’t eat a lot of food at one time, so the cost for the prescription food is very reasonable.
All cats have tested negative for FeLeuk/FIV and are current on rabies and FVRCP vaccinations. She has a PetEstablished microchip implanted and the new owner will need to call and get her registered in their name at no charge. StreetCats is located at 60th & S. Sheridan in Tulsa. We are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. Our website isstreetcatstulsa.org.
All people wanting to adopt must come into StreetCats and have all members who live with them come in also. We do not adopt out of the state of Oklahoma and prefer to adopt in the greater Tulsa area.

Major
Meet Major! He has the BEST smile you will ever see on a pup! He loves life and considering what he looked like when we got him, it is amazing! Major is about 7 years old but playful like a pup. He does really well with all his friends at doggie daycare where he enjoys working off some of that energy. He is house/crate trained (not a big fan of the crate but that is understandable!) and though he has never jumped a fence, we think he would do best with a fence that is 6 feet tall. This little guy would love to be your very best friend!
Major is fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Latte
Latte is 5 years old and ready to find a new home. This pretty kitty is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and is current on her parasite prevention medications.

Karma
Meet Karma – if you are telling a secret, don’t tell it around me because I can hear everything with my gigantic ears! I’ve been told that blue heelers have ears like mine so maybe that’s what I am? Not sure because I’m not very big but it doesn’t matter. I’m a pretty girl! The doctor man said I was born in the middle of March so I’m about 6 months old. I play with my sister, Gypsy, but I like other dogs too. I’m hoping that I will get my forever home soon!
Karma is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Gypsy
Hey everyone! My name is Gypsy! Don’t you think it fits me? They said I’m a blue heeler mix, but I’m kind of on the petite side so who knows. I do know I am the coolest of teenagers at 6 months old and I have fun playing with my twin sister, Karma. The people where we are staying are nice and give us lots of attention which suits me fine, but I’m really ready to be in a family of my own. And I do like being the center of attention! If you think I might make a good family member for your family, check out the website below.

Nickel and Pewter
Nickel and Pewter are blue (grey) and white brothers with an estimated birthdate of Nov. 11, 2021. They are bonded and were taken care of by a woman while they were homeless, but she couldn’t continue to care for them due to her own health issues. They were in foster care for about three weeks and they really adjusted well to being only inside cats. They are young so they are active and love to play. Pewter (more white on him) is more outgoing than Nickle (has a goatee on his chin), but they do count on each other for love, care, sleeping partners. Both boys enjoy being petted, like a cat tree and a scratching post. They must be adopted together.
All cats have tested negative for FeLeuk/FIV and are current on rabies and FVRCP vaccinations. All kitties have Home Again microchips implanted and are registered at no charge to the owner. StreetCats is located at 60th & S. Sheridan in Tulsa on the east side of Sheridan. Our website is streetcatstulsa.org.
All people wanting to adopt must come into StreetCats and have all members who live with them come in also. We do not adopt out of the state of Oklahoma and prefer to adopt in the greater Tulsa area.

Harley
My name is Harley! I am 2 year old and I was named after the motorcycle company Harley Davidson. I am a very sweet boy who gets along with other dogs. My downfall is that I am an escape artist so I would need to be supervised while outside and not left alone for any amount of time. I am microchipped, neutered, and current on my vaccines.
Visit tulsaspca.org/adoptable-dogs to learn more about the adoption process and to inquire about Harley.

Melvin
I’m Melvin! I am 5 years old, and I spend my days looking out windows, zooming around the office with my toys, and reminding the nice people here to take a break and pet me! I have been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and I am current on my parasite prevention medications. I would make a very loving companion!
Visit tulsaspca.org/adoptable-cats to learn more about the adoption process and to inquire about Melvin.

Dash
Dash is a super laid-back guy who loves to lounge around. He would do best in a home with other dog friends who he can run and play with. Dash is great with little kids, but could knock them over on accident, of course. He likes to explore so he cannot be left unattended when outside. Dash is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and is current on his parasite prevention medications.
Visit tulsaspca.org/adoptable-dogs to learn more about the adoption process and to inquire about Dash.

He is currently in a foster home and is available for adoption through Sapulpa Furry Friends. His adoption fee is $75. All SFF cats are spayed/neutered, UTD on vaccines, dewormed and microchipped. Apply to adopt at sapulpafurryfriends.org/adopt .

Joker
Sweet Joker is looking for a family to love him. He and his “brother”, Beethoven, were surrendered to us when the family moved. He is 4 years old, house/crate trained and has a very sweet and playful personality. Joker looks like a mix of Manchester Terrier and possibly Rottweiler. We would love for them to stay together but they would be fine apart also.
Joker is fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Zoey
Zoey’s a big girl with a big personality to match! She has experience with children and has done well with other dogs. She used a doggy door in her last home and never had accidents. She’s quite the chunk, so this girl obviously loves to snack and should be easy to train with such food motivation! She would benefit from a family willing to take her on walks to help her lose some weight and just enjoy exploring the world with her hound dog nose.
Zoey is spayed, vaccinated, heart worm tested, microchipped, and current on parasite prevention. Zoey has Addison’s Disease, which is managed well with daily and monthly medication.
Visit tulsaspca.org/adoptable-dogs to learn more about the adoption process and to inquire about Zoey.

Brownie
Brownie is a chihuahua mix, 6 months old, active and smart! He loves to play with all sizes of dogs and all sizes of kids! Brownie is a good all-around pup from playing in the backyard to laying next to you on the couch. And look at those ears! He is a doll! If you are looking for a small dog, look no further than Brownie
Brownie is fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Penny
Penelope aka Penny was on her own trying to protect her seven tiny babies. The weather was not good for outside animals when we had all that relentless rain in the spring, but she and the babies survived (one puppy almost didn’t but thank goodness for good vets and caring fosters!) Fortunately, we were able to get her off the streets, and after taking care of her and her babies, she is now ready to find a forever home! We consider her a “pocket pit” because she is so little herself! She is only about 30 lbs and can hardly contain her excitement when she sees you! And she has the prettiest roan (reddish) color coat in the sun! You can’t tell from the picture, but she is beautiful!! She does deal with a little separation anxiety when she is left completely alone, which after her experience is understandable! But when she has another dog for companionship when her people aren’t there, she is in doggie heaven! She does well on a leash, loves other dogs and kids, is crate and house trained. She is just a great little dog for someone wanting a sweet smaller dog!
Penny is believed to be one-year-old and is fully vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Reba
Reba is our beautiful, independent girl who just graduated from our STAR Inmate Training Program where she passed in the top of the class! Reba is a quick learner and very eager to please which is why she did so well in the training classes. She loves doing tricks for treats too! She was born 7/1/21 and our DNA app guesstimate is that she is a foxhound mix. But even with on-the-go personality, she really loves her snuggles. She says “bring on the blanket and Netflix and I’m there!” She would do best with an active family, maybe someone who likes to run or hike! Unfortunately, she is a bit much for most kitties so we advise against a cat in the household.
Reba is fully vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Sophee
Sophee is a sweet girl with a wonderful personality! As a puppy, she thinks everyone should love her as much as she loves meeting them. Her estimated birthdate is Feb. 4, 22 and we think she will be a medium to large size pup when full grown (but that’s a guesstimate)! Sophee is a world class snuggler too! Our phone app told us that she is a mix of Jack Russell Terrier, Parson Russell Terrier and American Pitbull Terrier which are all intelligent breeds (all guesstimates too). But whatever her heritage is, what we know is that she is an amazing pup and we think would make a wonderful new family member!
Sophee will be fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped as part of her adoption as she meets the different age requirements. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Kali
This is Kali (formerly Kerbea). She is a 7-month-old Heeler mix who is somewhat timid until she knows you which doesn’t take long! Once she decides you are her friend, she becomes your little shadow! She does love playing with other dogs too. She is incredibly smart, crate trained and housetrained herself almost immediately. Kali is so eager to please and is very treat motivated! You can’t go wrong with this sweet girl!
Kali is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Dac
Dac is named after the sound he makes like a Pterodactyl! He is a 10-month-old mix (we aren’t sure what!) and has loads of personality as you can see from his picture! Dac wants nothing more than to be with his person and loves playing with other dogs. He is eager to please so easy to train!
Dac is fully vaccinated, neutered and microchipped. To inquire, visit the CARE Rescue website at carerescueok.org

Diego
Diego is about 2 1/2 years old and has spent most of his life in some form of boarding. Diego has some fears of men and new people in general, but patience and treats wins this boy over! Once you’ve earned his trust, Diego is a very affectionate guy and loves being with his people. He knows his basic commands; he walks well on lead; and he is housebroken. Diego is very dog friendly (even with males!), and just needs someone to give him a chance!
Diego is fully vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. Diego is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.

Gingy
Gingy is a young Boxer mix that is now available for adoption. He is energetic and friendly with the most expressive ears!! He is currently 37 pounds, but a little thin so probably has some filling out to do. He did well on a leash and sat for treats!
To adopt, please visit Gingy at the Sapulpa Animal shelter! Open Monday-Thursday 9-5:30pm, Friday 8-12pm, Saturday 10-2pm. Adoption fee is $15, covering neuter and vaccines.

Duck
Duck is a rather cute pittie mix that is now available for adoption. That face! He is very sweet, sat on command, and did well on the leash. He does seem, initially at least, to prefer women to men. He may just need a little time to warm up and some good experiences with a man.
To adopt, please visit Duck at the Sapulpa Animal Shelter. Hours are Monday-Thursday 9-5:30pm, Friday 8-12pm, Saturday 10-2pm. Adoption fee is $15, covering neuter and vaccines.

Johnny
Johnny is about 2 years old but acts like a happy bouncing 3-month-old! And his fur is as soft as a pup’s! Johnny is a timid little guy, loud voices and new things still frighten him, so slow and steady wins his heart. He is working on his basic commands and already walks well on leash but needs more confidence-building. He could have a doggie friend but still needs some work on proper play and sharing. If you need a friend that’ll keep you laughing, come meet Johnny! Johnny is fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and is available for adoption through Compassionate Animal Rescue Efforts.
To inquire, visit carerescueok.org.

Norman
Norman is a shy guy and will take time to warm up to new people, but he can become affectionate once he knows he can trust you. If you’re willing to give him the time that he needs, the payoff will be well worth it.
