Adorable Adoptables

Run, Forrest! Run! Jenny told Forrest to run and so should you, straight to the Cochrane Humane Society, to meet our latest Adorable Adoptable.

Jenny may be shy at first, but with a bit of love and a lot of treats she will quickly become your best friend.

"She's a lovely girl," says Robyn Roy, communications coordinator with the Humane Society. "We worked on her confidence building and she is ready to go."

Meet Mackay and Bundaberg, two kittens with names as fun as their personalities. These five-month-old cuties are ready to find their forever homes.

“They came into the shelter not being socialized,” says Robyn Roy, communications coordinator with the Humane Society. “They were strays for the first chunk of their lives, but we’ve worked on their socialization and now they’re ready for adoption.”

This week’s Adorable Adoptables star is turning up the heat. Meet Chili Pepper, the handsome long-haired boy with a heart as warm as his name.

Chili Pepper came to the shelter a little unsure about people, but after some time in foster care, he’s learning that humans can be pretty great.

“He’s got a pretty good amount of hair,” says Robyn Roy, communications coordinator with the Humane Society.

This week’s Adorable Adoptables spotlight is on Kirk, a once-timid pup who’s transformed into a playful and loyal friend.

Kirk arrived at the Cochrane & Area Humane Society shy and unsure, but he’s made incredible progress.

“He was really a scared little guy when he first came to the shelter,” says Robyn Roy, communications coordinator with the Humane Society. “It took him a while to warm up, but with our help and lots of patience and love, he’s finally warming up.”

This week’s Adorable Adoptable is bringing the fun, the sass and the snuggles. Meet Jiggy, a sweet and social kitty who’s sure to get your home feelin’ jiggy with it.

Jiggy came into the shelter with her lifelong pal Frog, and together they’ve transformed from shy cats into total cuddlebugs.

This week's Adorable Adoptables feature is as sweet as breakfast and twice as fun. Meet Pancakes, the energetic pup with a love for snacks and snuggles.

“She’s one and a half years old, a mixed breed, and a beautiful girl who loves adventuring,” says Robyn Roy, communications coordinator with the Cochrane & Area Humane Society.

A tornado watch issued earlier Wednesday evening for Rocky View County, including Airdrie and Crossfield, was lifted just before 8 p.m., according to Environment Canada.

The watch had been issued at 5:25 p.m., when the agency warned that “conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms which may produce tornadoes.” Forecasters also noted the potential for strong winds, large hail and heavy rainfall.
