Oswald Cobblepot was once a beloved community cat who would roam the streets in search of tasty snacks. He was loved by many, but his caretakers wanted the best for him and that is how he ended up as an adoptable cat at Humane Fort Wayne. He is both FIV and FeLV positive, which means that he will need to be the only cat in the home, but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have a long life ahead of him! He is extremely healthy for being a 5-year-old cat that, up until recently, was living outdoors. Oswald loves any and all snacks. He will be a great cat to teach tricks since he is so food-motivated. He loves people, too (since they are the ones who bring him treats)! Fur real though, Oswald Cobblepot is one happy boy!

When Marjolaine is around, it’s sure to be a great day! This sweet Retriever Mix is a little under 2-years-old and she is always bringing a smile to the faces of those around her. She is a high energy dog that gets excited to meet new people. Marjolaine would do best in an active household that would take her out so she can run and play her days away! When she’s not running around soaking up the sun, Marjolaine absolutely loves cuddles. Not only does she get along with people, but she loves other dogs, too! She has lived with other dogs and is currently sharing a kennel with a friend here at Humane Fort Wayne. Marjolaine is about 41 lbs. so she is a great medium sized dog that would make any family feel incredibly loved! Fur real though, Marjolaine can’t contain her happy tail!

Our very own songstress, Mary J. Blige started her own shelter journey in 2017. What’s the 411? She came through our coalition partner, Animal Care and Control and was adopted after. Once again she hit the charts in 2021, this time being transferred to us as a stray. Among Blige’s most popular Meows to date are “Family Affair”, “Real Love”, “Not Gon’ Cry” and “Be Without You”. It’s obvious to us, because of her size and status that she was once a beloved house cat, despite her tipped ear. She’s not going to cry once you take her home though, unless you have other cats, because this R & B (rest and bites of food) Queen is a solo artist. Mary J. Blige is about 4 years old and is looking for a home without other cats where she can retire and give you all the love in her heart. Fur real though, Mary J. Blige is a superstar!
