My name is Boots and I need a speical loving and caring home. I have some problems with my teeth and am now on some medicine that will hopefully correct the problem. If nowt Hopewell has made arrangements for my back teeth to be pulled--my front teeth are okay. Hey, and I am still a young fun loving "man of the road." My teeth are bad because of poor diet.
was not properly taken care of when I was small and then I was dumped and no one cared! I was found and wrapped in a box with very few air holes, box taped shut, and left outside in the rain and cold weather.
Hopewell Humane saved me from sure suffering and death! They have nursed me back to health (and are working on the teeth problem) and had me neutered. I am up to date on all shots; am wormed and flea treated reguarly, and have tested negative for feline aids and leukemia.p>
Before we found out the problem with my teeth, I had found a home; however, after my owners found out that there was a problem they no longer wanted me. They brought me back (thankfully) to Hopewell Humane.
If you think you would like to adopt me or help sponsor me with my medical bills (which so far, even without the removal of the teeth, are very high, you can call the shelter at 804-458-7303 or volunteer Carol at 804-458-373. If you would like to sponsor me or make a donation to help with medical bills, you may make a check payable (tax-deductable) to Hopewell Humane Society, and mail it to P O Box 562, Hopewell, VA 23860.
.Please! come see me. . . and all my buddies here at Hopewell Humane Society.

NEW BUILDING. After many, many years, we have been able to purchase a new building. In December of 2006 we purchased the old Tri-City Animal Clinic on Oaklawn Boulevard and physically moved in March/April of 2007.
