We've had some adoptions and some additions since our last post, and we wanted to take a second to show some of the new faces looking for a new home.

All the cats pictured below are available for adoption, and they are as sweet as can be 😺🤍! The all-white dog is also available for adoption; however, the other dog pictured below was found, and we are hoping to return him to his rightful home.

If you believe he's yours, you have until the end of this week to claim him before he is available for adoption. You can find him at our Animal Services Center located at 3615 Gates Boulevard, and you'll need to bring proof of ownership such as vet records, shot records, registered microchip, driver’s license, etc.

If you are interested in adoption:

💙Adoption Fees:
Adult Dogs & Adult Cats: $30
Puppies & Kittens: $15

For more general information or more specific information about a particular friend, please call 409-983-8785.
