Autumn

Eight-month-old Autumn, with amazingly deep Tabby markings of ebony, beige and silver, is our definition of a lap cat. She is so calm and gentle for such a young girl. She does have a fun, playful side but put her on your lap and she’ll purr and snuggle.  She will make a wonderful companion in any household that will provide forever love and care. If you are looking for a beautiful, healthy, clean and loving lap cat then Autumn is the one for you.

Turn Autumn’s photo into a Christmas card, a tree ornament, or frame it and put it on your mantle! At the time of her adoption, a request may be made to the Shelter officer for an email attachment of this photo. Give the officer your email address and the attachment with the photo will be sent to you.

Autumn is available through Saturday.

Luna

Say hi to Luna, a medium-size, 1-year-old female Retriever-Carolina dog. She is a sweet, gentle, friendly, observant dog who loves petting and tummy rubs. Her short, easy to care for black coat sports interesting patches of white, under her chin and down her chest. Her expressive big brown-melt your heart eyes and perky ears add charm to her pretty face. Given tender loving care, Luna will make a great pet and devoted companion.

At the time of her adoption, a request may be made to the Shelter officer, for an email attachment of this photo.
