Creature Feature: Meet Mr. Mellow

This is the one and only, Mellow! This charming, sweet boy’s journey began at Wichita Animal Services, where he narrowly escaped his deadline, before winding up at On A Mission KC.

Following his time at the boarding facility, it’s become apparent that Mellow thrives best as the solo pet, in a loving home. He’s not suited for households with other pets, including cats. While we will never know Mellow’s past, our hearts ache knowing it may, and most likely has, been a challenging one.

Though his ideal match might be a tad more specific, we’re determined to find that perfect match and a forever home for this incredible fellow. Mellow adores humans, is a professional cuddler, and he’s in search of that one true bestie who’ll cherish him as he deserves.

Could you be Mellow’s hero?  Reach out if you feel that special connection, or kindly share this post to give Mellow the visibility he so rightly merits.  Together, we can make Mellow’s dream of a forever home a reality.

If you would like more information or to schedule a meet and greet, please contact On A Mission KC.

Earlier this month, KC Pet Project announced that they had reached a critical capacity, with over 150 pets being abandoned and left for shelter at the organization. KCPP has since lowered prices on adoption fees, as well as waived fees completely for certain pets.

“This is a really, really tough situation to be in because we do not want to have to euthanize for space here, but we are having to euthanize dogs almost every day because we are just out of options,” Chief Communications Officer at KC Pet Project Tori Fugate says in an article with KSHB 41. “We don’t have space. We are an open admission shelter which means we have to have kennels available for the animals that are coming into our shelter.”

If you or someone you know is in the market for a new pet, now is a great time to give back to the community by taking in one of these furry friends.
