The cats are definitely in need right now as there seem to be no cat adoptions of late. If you have ever thought that you’d like to add a cat to your brood, there are some wonderful cats and kittens that would love be yours. Tiger is a petite Torbie girl with lemon shaped golden eyes. She has pretty shades of orange speckled into her Tabby like coat and best of all is she is very friendly and people oriented. Sweet Priscilla is a darker colored Tortoiseshell and looks like she has chocolate chips sprinkled in her coat. She is a very friendly cat too just like Tiger but sadly these two have both been passed over.
Some great new cats this week… the super size Clouseau is a big Tuxedo boy; Licorice is a very loving male black cat that was clearly owned by someone as all he wants to do is be with you and rub your hand. He is an extra friendly boy that must have a sad story to have ended up someplace other than his home as you can tell he was dearly loved. Pepper has gorgeous gold eyes and a white coat with pretty brown markings on his head and back. They gray and white Tuxedo is so loving he laid his head in the volunteers head as she tried to take his photo. If it is a kitten you want, there are some darling baby Tabby babies and 2 wee black kittens just waiting for the perfect home. Be sure to come get your pick of the litter!
There were a few adoptions of pups but almost nothing for adults. How could anyone pass up Daisy? She is a darling little Rat Terrier with a face that will melt your heart. She is young but seems to have had some training along the way. Brandy is a Plott Hound likely that was meant for hunting. She probably liked people more than hunting which was not good for her so now she is rewarded with looking for a new home. She is a happy go lucky girl that hopes not to be passed over for smaller dogs again. Tyler is a compact lil guy that looks like a shrunken Shepherd mix with the most soulful eyes. Sam and Zeke are both Catahoula mixes and are very loving and nice dogs. Houlas are the state dog of Louisiana and are known for their intelligence and athletic ability. EmmyLou is a Border Terrier mix but and would make a great dog for a family or single that would like a small and loving companion. Barney is a “so ugly I’m cute” little black dog with brown around his neck. He is a definite Heinz 57 but I think he got the best of everything. He has heart and soul and little mixed breeds make the best and most loving and loyal companions. Please give each of these hold overs another look and some hope.
New dogs include 2 small (what we believe to be) Affenpincher Yorkie mixes. They are likely brothers and have unique wirey fur that sticks up all around their faces. Jet is an owner surrender with beautiful brown eyes just asking for a chance to come home with you. Little Pearl looks like she must have lost her way and no one bothered to claim her. She is not a youngster but sweet and seemingly well cared for but sad not to be home. Little Lexis a a small Spaniel mix that cocked her head at the camera in question… what a sweet little girl. Patti and Missy are 2 sisters that were sadly dumped in the outside holding pen. They are Cattle Dog / Terrier mixes and are a great size with personalities that will win you over as soon as you meet them.
The animals keep coming in and we continue to help but couldn’t do it without the help of so many like you that help us spread the word for them.
