Hi! My name is Power! I'm one big Cane Corso! The humans at the shelter say that it is very important (and required!) for interested adopters to have knowledge of Cane Corsos and previous ownership experience. They really are just trying to set me up for success!

True to my breed, I am protective, but I am also very scared when I'm introduced to new people and new things. I will need to get to know you over several visits at the shelter. I do best with a very slow introduction to new people and new situations. Please do know, though, that once I trust you -- that bond is formed, and I am all in! I just need time and patience from you to get there.

Once we have gotten to know each other, I love to be outside if you are. Going for walks and galloping in a fenced-in area make me so happy. When we are taking a break, I like to lean into you for back scratches and will give you big slobbery kisses!

As far as other animals go, I still prefer a slow introduction. The humans here have noticed that I give what I get. For example, if an animal is super friendly, I am, too! If they are barky, I am, too! I have lived with kittens before. They were nice to me and I was nice to them! If your resident dog has a non-reactive temperament, I may do well! I also would be perfectly fine to be the only animal in my new home. I'd prefer adults only in my new home; older teenagers may be okay for me.

My knees aren't the greatest. There is some roughness in some parts of them. My vet friend suggested that I stay on carprofen - which is helping me! They also suggested that I may need to be re-evaluated for a possible cruciate repair, whether it be bilateral or singular, down the road.

My friends here are teaching me how to share and not keep my toys and food to myself. I'm starting to catch on so please continue to teach me when I come home with you!

I have bit someone before when I was scared and uncomfortable. I also may have been being overprotective, but I still wanted you to know that.

In my previous home, I did wonderful at being house-trained. I also wasn't destructive when I was left alone but am crate-trained! I really love car rides and am a cool guy!

If you fit the criteria that I am looking for in my new family, please call the shelter at (219) 872-4499 and ask to speak to Karen. Once you speak with her, they can schedule a time for you to meet me. Love, Power.

Hi, I'm Lucy. I'm just gonna give it to you real, real straight and honest here...

I like attention when I like attention. When I'm done with you petting me, I'm done. I'm the loudest purrer ever but I also hiss just as loudly sometimes.

The humans at the shelter refer to me as a "sassy, large-and-in-charge" lady. I know what I like and am not shy about it. I know I said that I like attention but, realistically, when I want affection, I kinda just demand it. I will hop up wherever you are and will meow as loud as I can until you pet me.

I like to stalk dogs and tell them very directly that they are not as good as I am. Then, I'll stare them down just to make sure they get the point. So, no dogs for me. I have lived with a male cat before. He knew I was the queen bee, so we had no problems at all! If your resident kitty is cool and chill, I'd consider him/her as a possible new friend. I like to hiss my loudest at kiddos - it scares them so adults only for me, please!

I'm super vocal and am lazy! I do chase catnip mice and pipe cleaners but only for short periods of time. I am quite entertaining when I eat catnip. Some have said that it enhances my sassiness but I like it so that is all that matters.

I've had urinary issues in the past, so I like to gobble up a specific food that helps me. I like food and glare at anyone who says I need to lose weight -- even though it is true.

I do have some good characteristics! The humans say that when I'm friendly, I'm a total sweetheart! Call the shelter at (219) 872-4499 to schedule an appointment. "Love", Lucy.

⭐IMPORTANT, IMPORTANT, IMPORTANT! ⭐ #dontbeakitnapper

You can read more about how to handle finding stray kittens on our website!

Arizona Humane Society
🐱 DON’T KIT-NAP KITTENS! 🐱

If you find stray kittens, please leave them be. The best thing you can do is leave found kittens alone and wait for mom to return. Mom is typically nearby looking for food (after all she's got extra mouths to feed now). It’s critical that the kittens remain in her care as she offers the best chance for survival.

If you are completely certain that the kittens are orphaned, click here to see how you can help: www.azhumane.org/foundkittens
