Success Stories
These are just a tiny sample of the cats and dogs — more than 350 in all — that have found new homes with the help of Companions in Waiting.
Little Alfie was hit by a car and nobody came looking for him at the shelter. The staff there called CIW, where he could take the time to learn to trust people again. And now he has a loving family!
Winnipeg was one of four kittens found in a garage. Due to health issues it took her a little longer than her siblings to find her family, but now she has both a human family that adore her, and big brother and sister cats to play with.
