- Katie is a large and very affectionate cat. "She's a big girl, so who doesn't love a big fat kitty?"
- Cappuccino is a shy guinea pig who warms up to you quickly.
- Barney is a very good natured, young dog with a lot of energy and is very trainable. "I think he is going to make someone really happy."
Animals are adopted and dropped off at the Humane Society on a daily basis and most of the animals in this video series have been adopted, however these ones are still waiting for someone to bring them home:
- Bob is a 7-year-old male cat who is shy, curious and affectionate.
- Shadow, a 8.5-year-old female cat who is inquisitive and friendly.
- Brownie and Emma are shy and loveable young guinea pigs.
