Dahlia has blossomed! She wasn’t too sure about us at first but with some play, treats and affection she realized we weren’t so bad after all. She now softly mews to let us know she needs pets and a nice warm blanketed lap to nap on. My spouse and I are so glad to have…
This is Mika (aka M’Amour). I have had dogs all my life and after the devastating loss of our last fur baby (a Gerdy dog) we decided to adopt a cat. Mika won our hearts and after a few initial hurdles she has completely integrated into our family. She is such a sweet, gentle, affectionate…
When I spoke with Sandy who originally rescued Domino (Our Leo), I knew that it would take some work to help Leo feel comfortable in our home. The first day he arrived, he hid and didn’t move for hours and hours. Our hearts broke for him, he was terrified. Over the past month, we gave…
My daughter and I fell in love the moment we saw her and now we can not imagine our home without that beautiful little girl. I can’t thank you enough for trusting me to be a forever humom to that beautiful older baby. Just wish more people would consider adopting older cats for they are…
Since coming into my house, Jackie has proceeded to make it his own, as evidenced by the generous amount of white fur left all over black furnishings and flooring. He absolutely has no respect for my personal space, but won’t stand for me invading his. Heaven forbid I lock the bathroom door, but six months…
Max and Mia came to me via another foster after being rescued as part of a TNR effort (which explains their notched ears). Max began as the cuddlier of the two, but now, my primary job seems to be making a lap for them, often at the same time. I love that they spend some…
Il est très intelligent et docile , écoute bien les commandements, aime prendre des marches. Il est en forme pour un chien de 14 ans! ~Lise H.
Little Lexi completed our family in October of last year. She was so scared and timid when she first arrived but over this last 8 months has improved leaps and bounds with the help of her two older brothers Cookie and Cody. Her personality is really coming out and a typical girl is starting to…
In the photo below are our 2 beautiful boys Gus and Tux, who we were very fortunate to adopt 2 years ago. It didn’t take long for them to settle in and become best buddies. Both Gus and Tux are gentle, sweet, happy and healthy cats and a wonderful addition to our family. Thank you…
Daisy was 8 years old when she came to us and now has been part of the family for almost 2 years. Bold and confident, she marched in like she owned the place. Her foster mom told me that the kitchen was Daisy’s favourite room in the house and she was right! She loves her…
The best words to describe Alfie are happy, happy, happy. What a change from when he first came as a foster with his sister Tia. They were both terrified and hid under the dining room table for weeks. Once he trusted me though, he adapted very nicely. After his sister was adopted, he learned to…
Sweet, little Rosie (aka Mindy) has been with me for almost three years. She was around 6 years old when I adopted her, a timid soul who had a rough beginning. She was terrified of everything. Her progress was slow and tentative and although she’s still shy and skittish, she’s come a long, long way.…
Lily (formerly Sister) began as a foster, but we quickly knew we needed to make her a permanent addition to the family. It took her a while to adjust, but now she is the queen of her castle. She spends her days playing with her fur brothers and sisters and sun bathing. She has been a…
Tyson has been such an amazing addition to our family. He and our golden doodle Lucy, get along famously! So much so, they’re the inspiration behind a new cartoon on Instagram called “Lucy and Tyson” We are so happy he came into our lives; he makes us laugh all the time. We love him❤️ –…
I remembered that I had left the television on and went back to the room to turn it off. I found Larry lounging on the sofa and watching cartoons on TV. It was the first time I saw Larry hang loose like this … I am very happy to see that he feels comfy in…
Crosby has been doing great in his new home!! It took him a while to get comfortable but his kind, sweet personality has really come out. Everyone who meets him loves him and he is especially loved by his family. He loves to cuddle and is happy anywhere as long as humans are around ❤️…
Beau is eating well and is a sweet snuggle-puss. His blindness is not a problem. He knows the house, the stairs and the back garden by heart. Adopting Beau was Best thing I did in a long while. –Suzanne
Oreo & Bear have brought such joy to my life! Oreo (black and white) loves to eat and sleep and to receive lotttts of cuddles. She is also the big sister in the house and Bear follows whatever she is doing. Bear is curious and loves to play, especially with soft balls and ropes. She…
Gerdy and Marilyn, thank you so much for choosing us as Champ’s forever family. Adopted in September 2019, Champ, nine now has adapted incredibly well to our routine and is the king of the house. He makes us laugh everyday and is keeping us sane through this pandemic. Would have gone completely crazy without him. Keep…
Lucas was catatonic when I first met him. He would sit in corners and hide under tables and chairs. He is now starting to flourish. He loves looking out of windows, long walks and chasing birds. Lucas loves to cuddle and is a very gentle soul. He is coming into his own, slowly but surely. …
I am beyond grateful to Gerdy’s for trusting me with the sweetest pup Edison (Eddie). Everyday I get to wake up to his cuddles. A smarter pup I’ve never met. We are inseparable. I’d say Edison rescued me. Each day I pinch myself and wonder how did I get to be so lucky to care…
He’s so amazing, his character is unbelievable, everyone loves him so much😊💕
Je vous présente Toby. Un petit Yorkshire adorable que j’ai adopté via Gerdy’s à la mi décembre 2019. Il s’est tout de suite adapté à notre routine car en passant j’ai un autre chien de la même race. Il est très actif surtout pour jouer à la balle. C’est un petit chien très affectif et il…
Adopting from Gerdy’s was an amazing experience….they are very thorough and efficient in making sure that it was a good fit for both Balou and us…and as you can see, Balou has fit right in…he enjoys playing with his pug brothers, and is a gentle giant…we cannot imagine not having Balou as part of our…
Puppy Nixie (was Willow) landed a great home with Gerdy’s Pepper (was Mia). My how she’s grown!
Gaston gets better everyday. We love him sooo much💕💕
Look at that beautiful smile!! Lexi has changed leaps and bounds from the short time we have had her… she was extremely nervous and shy and now she is the sweetest, friendliest, most cuddly dog!! She is such a quick learner!! Her and her “dog sister” Kloie play for hours running around playing ball every…
Nuthin to do on a rainy afternoon but nap.
Lucy (in the middle) is doing well & she has changed so much over the past 6 months She loves going outside for a walks and when she sees the leashe she can’t control her excitement We love her so much! M and R
Dickens and Zou Zou the bird make my day 🙏 I cannot imagine my life without my little friends. They are a blessing and a comfort in this crazy world.
Kali and family are doing well! She is a great dog, likes doing tricks. This picture is from St-Patricks day, she found a pot of gold. It’s already 3.5 years that we’ve had her, she will be 5 in October.
Timmy the Pom, so happy in his new home!
Happiness is senior Tony and senior Glenda—a perfect Gerdy’s match 😍!!!
Coby is a love bug. He has adjusted so beautifully to life with us. He has his routine in the morning of jumping on daddy’s legs and curling up into a ball. He always wants to be right by your side. He loves to snuggle, play and kiss. He is simply delicious. ~ Monique K.
Hi Gerdy and team,We hope you are all doing great and staying safe during this difficult time. Here is a positive update on our Heidi!Today she turned 11 and we had a little party all together. Here are some pics 🙂 Take care xox Mél, Chris and Heidi
Siggi has been the perfect leader of the house. Siggi tells us when to go to bed, Siggi has learned to herd us around. We all acknowledge Siggi as our great leader. Siggi is kind and affectionate. Siggi became a perfect brother to Steini, our Gerdy’s cat that we got in June of 2008. Siggi…
Bonjour à toute l’équipe de Gerdy’s Rescue, On est tellement heureux de l’avoir parmi nous, elle met du soleil et de la joie dans notre maison qui en manquait cruellement depuis le départ de notre dernier chien en août dernier. En 3 jours seulement elle était adaptée à sa nouvelle vie. Elle est facile et…
A picture speaks 1k words! xoxo, Anita
Jake on the sofa, Sandy on the floor, chilling at the lake 😁 Have a great weekend and thanks again for everything you do for these wonderful animals. –Sandy
Dear Gerdy, Marilyn, and team, Happy holidays and best wishes for 2020! Thank you for all the great work that you do. This is Becks (previously Indy) and my 3rd Christmas together. Clearly he has taken over this house and made himself comfy. Cheers! Ziggy
Happy Holidays, Heidi, Melanie, Chris
Happy Halloween! –Steve, Chelsea and the trio
Hi Gerdy, It was so nice to see you at Finnegan’s after all these years :). Almost 10 years actually, since Riley (Pelé) came into my life! He just turned 12. Riley has slowed down quite a bit this past year, but he’s definitely living his best life. Lots of adventures and good times.…
Tough day for Freddy…. Thank you again, Gerdy, for bringing us Freddy! It’s been ten years and we (and Tibbit) love every moment of him! xoxoxo Muffy and Zoe
Hello everyone. It’s been quite some time, but wanted to let you know that Molly will soon be 12 and she’s doing great. She enjoys her daily walks around town as well as our strolls up back to our camp. She gets lots of compliments on how great she looks for her age. Thank you…
