Full Description:
Meet beautiful Gumdrop 💜
Gumdrop has been patiently waiting at the shelter for over two years, and while she tries to stay hopeful, shelter life has made her little heart sad. What she truly dreams of is a quiet home and one special person to share it with.
Gumdrop would do best as the only pet in an adult-only home — no cats, dogs, or kids, please. She’s an independent girl who enjoys her own space, but when she trusts you, she’ll come looking for gentle love and companionship on her terms.
Her favorite things? A tall cat tree, a sunny window, and peaceful days spent near someone who understands her quiet nature.
Gumdrop has been so patient waiting for her forever home. Now it’s finally her turn.
Do you have room in your heart for me?
Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.
Adoption fee covers the following veterinarian services: spay/neuter surgery, age-appropriate vaccinations, flea and dewormer treatment, feline leukemia/FIV test in cats, heartworm test for dogs.

Say hello to Lydia — a spunky little 4-year-old gal with a big personality and an adventurous spirit! 💜
Lydia has been at the shelter for nearly two years, and she is more than ready to flee this joint and find a home of her own. She’s an independent girl who knows what she likes: playtime, climbing, and affection on her own terms.

Lydia would prefer to be the only pet so she can soak up all the attention and enjoy her space without sharing. She’s playful, confident, and full of charm for the right person who appreciates a cat with a little sass and a lot of character.

Like any true Husky, Kringles is full of personality, energy, and charm. He’ll need a family willing to work on a few manners and provide plenty of activity, exercise, and adventure to keep both his mind and body busy. In return, you’ll get a fun-loving, affectionate companion with a playful spirit and a sparkle in his eye that melts hearts instantly.

His easygoing nature and happy personality have made him a favorite among our volunteers, who love taking him for walks and spending time playing with him.

Name: Lyric
Primary Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Gender: Female
Entry Date: 2/21/26
Birth Date: 06/2025
Declawed: No
Adoption Fee: $125.00
Full Description:
Meet Lyric
Lyric is a beautiful black kitty with a gentle soul and a calm, easygoing nature. She loves catnip and bird watching from a sunny window. While she may seem a little reserved at first, Lyric is searching for that special person who will give her the time and patience she needs to feel safe and form a lasting bond.
Her heart is full of love—she’s just still learning what it means to receive it and how to share it. Once she feels secure, her sweet personality begins to shine.
Right now, Lyric isn’t a fan of other cats, likely because she’s still in protective mama mode after raising her little ones. Dogs, however, are much more her style, and she enjoys their company. She would likely do well with respectful children, as she happily tolerates pets and doesn’t mind having her paws, ears, or tummy touched.
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will reward your patience with a deep and meaningful connection, Lyric may be the perfect match. All she needs is a loving home and someone willing to let her blossom at her own pace. ❤️🐾
Please call the Humane Society of North Iowa at 641-423-6241 for more information.

Name: Gilbert
Primary Breed: Pitbull
Gender: Male
Entry Date: 03/28/26
Birth Date: 04/2025
Adoption Fee: $250.00
Full Description:
Gilbert is a gentle soul wrapped in a sturdy little pitbull body—a white-coated sweetheart with soft eyes that seem to ask, “Is it okay if I trust you?” Life hasn’t always been kind to him. He came in young, a stray, sticking close to his loyal pal Arnie, unsure of the world but hoping it might finally be safe.
Bashful by nature, Gilbert doesn’t rush into anything. He takes his time, watching, learning, quietly building courage one small step at a time. But behind that timid start is an incredibly loving heart. Once he knows you, he leans in softly, offering the kind of sweetness that feels earned and deeply real.
Gilbert is looking for someone patient and kind—someone who will show him that life doesn’t have to be scary. In return, he’ll teach you something too: how trust grows, how love can be gentle, and how even the shyest hearts can bloom when given the chance.

Name: Cedar
Primary Breed: Lab Mix
Gender: Male
Entry Date: 04/06/26
Birth Date:
Adoption Fee: $250.00
Full Description:
Cedar is a young Lab mix with a gentle heart and a quiet spirit. He was found as a stray alongside his friend Clover, who has already found her forever home—now it’s Cedar’s turn to find a family of his own.
Cedar is a very good boy, but he’s extremely shy and still learning that the world isn’t such a scary place. New experiences can feel overwhelming for him, even simple things like doorways, so he’ll need a patient and understanding adopter who can help him build confidence at his own pace.
With time, kindness, and reassurance, Cedar has so much potential to blossom. He’s the kind of dog who may take a little while to come out of his shell, but once he does, the bond you’ll build will be incredibly special. If you’re willing to invest in a “diamond in the ruff,” Cedar just might be your perfect match.
