Our Memories
Although not all are part of Cinnamon’s House, we want to share some memories of our all the pets that shared our lives and gave us lots of love, laughter and affection. They came into our lives and left amazing memories that we continue to carry with us, either after they joyfully found thier new forever families or long after they crossed over the rainbow bridge.
Frankie
Frankie didn't stay with us very long, but we are so happy for her! She has found her wonderful forever home in Massachusetts where she is being treated like a Queen. Her new Mom and Dad are thrilled to have her as part of the family.
With Cinnamon's House nearly empty, we naturally make a visit to the Providence Animal Control to see who needed to be adopted. We did not find any seniors residents, but we did find Frankie, an adorable Hound mix! A typical hound, Frankie loved to watch for bunny rabbits, enjoyed going for walks, playing with her toys and just loved lounging on the couch with us.
Misty
Misty found a wonderful forever home in Rhode Island. She now has a great fenced in yard and two new senior canine siblings to play with.
​
Miss Misty was 16 years old when she came to Cinnamon's House. She is a Beagle mix with an all too familar situation where her owner could no longer care for her. She has such a lovely personality, very happy and playful and really enjoyed her bed!
​
We are so happy for her!

Adara
Adara has found a wonderful forever home! Her new Mom plays the piano and sings to her everyday.
A fitting home for a retired service dog who just loves attention! She came to Cinnamon's House because she could no longer care for her owner. We know she will getting all the love this deserving girl could ever ask for!
Lucy
Sadly we lost Lucy on 6/14/24. She came to Cinnamon's House in February of 2024 at the age of 13, when her family could not longer care for her. All we had to do was look at that face and we knew just had to have her.
Lucy was 12 pounds of pure love! We are so happy to have been able to have given her some wonderful times. She was such a hoot and lived life to the fullest every day. We know Lucy is now running and playing with all our alumni. She will certainly be missed!

Lincoln
YAY, Lincoln has found his forever family! Even though he still sufferd from PTSD due to his severe injury last October, Lincoln was adopted by an amazing couple on Cape Cod. They were so excited to continue nursing him back to good health and allowing him to become the king of the house.
Lincoln, a Chihuahua, came to us on October 5, 2023. He was severely injured and, of course, Cinnamon’s House had to run to his rescue. No one knew what actually happened to him, but we immediately rushed him to Southern RI Animal Hospital. Lincoln was in a lot of pain, but Dr. Dana and her team were wonderful! We carefully followed her instructions for daily care and after many hours of love, attention and medical care, Lincoln’s wound healed and he settled in to the ranks with the rest of the gang.​
​
We are so happy for you, Lincoln! And, we are so glad we were here to help!
Cinnamon
Soon after Marilyn and Patrick married, they adopted Cinnamon, a cinnamon-colored mixed breed dog. After Cinamon had been hit by a car, she found herself in a shelter. Sadly, her family never came to claim her. She was considered unadoptable, but not to the Lawless’. They fell in love with her immediately. Cinnamon only walked on three of her legs, dispite a healthy fourth paw. The veterinarian believed she suffered from PTSD from her accident.
​
Cinnamon was our namesake and guiding force for Cinnamon’s House. We miss you, girl!
Buddy
We are sad to announce that on 12/27/2023, Buddy crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. His little body could not fight his cancer anymore. We know he is running around with all his furry friends in heaven.
Buddy was such a happy and playful Chihuahua mix who joined our family at the age of 13. He proudly did his part to help the residents at Cinnamon's House feel at home. Even at the age of 14, he had the spirit of an 8 year old and he loved to run! ...and "Oh, those ears!"
Jessie
A chocolate lab who was rescued from a high-kill shelter in TN,
Jessie lived a long and busy life and passed over the rainbow bridge at the age of 14. She loved to chase bunnies and hunt moles in all the wood piles all day long, then at night she would curl up with us for
a good snuggle.
Dusty
Dusty was an orange cat we rescued from an animal shelter and only lived a short time with us before developing a tumor in his ear canal. Marilyn often says that he was the one that turned her into a cat lover.
