Our Cats
The majority of our cats are of domestic short hair, locally referred to as "Potcats." For those with busy schedules, cats can be the purr-fect pet. They don't require as much attention as dogs do, and as a big bonus, they come already house trained. All our cats are litter trained. All they require from you is to keep their litter box in a quiet private area, and to keep it clean for them.
Cats are happy to see you when you come home, but they are also quite capable of entertaining themselves (i.e. mostly napping) during your long work or school days. Make sure they have plenty of clean fresh water, a little dry kibble, and can't escape through a window or door, and they will be fine.
For entertainment and relaxation purposes, you can't beat the antics of a cat. Having a cat for a companion is good for the soul and good for your health. Your daily stresses melt away in the company of your cat.

Our Dogs
The majority of our dogs are of mixed breeds, locally referred to as "Potcakes." This name is derived from a popular dish here, peas and rice. The "cake" that sticks to the bottom of the pot was usually thrown into the yard for the dogs (and in many cases, it still is). Potcakes are an officially recognized breed in the Bahamas!
Potcakes typically have smooth, short fur with little or no undercoat, cocked ears, a hound-like rib cage and long terrier-shaped faces. More rare are the shaggy or rough-coated Potcakes. The "typical" Potcake is brown, but colors range from party (brindle) to black, white, cream, yellow, and red. Adults stand about 24 inches high at the shoulder. Normal adult weight is 25 pounds in the bush, but once healthy and homed, they can weigh 30-45 pounds, depending upon bone structure.
Please make a difference and save the life of a truly unique and WONDERFUL Potcake!
