June is Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month!

Charlie
June is Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat month, and this is a great time to encourage anyone you know who might be thinking about adding a new pet to their family, to adopt from a shelter.  So many deserving pets are waiting in shelters for their forever families, and shelters can provide you with advice on choosing a pet with the temperament that will work for you, support for bringing your new family member home, and a pet who's current on vaccinations.  There are all kinds of sweet animals, some looking for a second chance to please.  Consider Charlie, a 10-year-old male kitty who came to us with a previously undiagnosed, but easily treatable, ear infection. Now that he's feeling better, Charlie is quiet and friendly, always looking for someone to pat his head.  He is a senior cat and will do best in a home without small children, but he has a lot of love and companionship yet to provide in his lifetime.  See more about him by clicking here , and thanks for supporting the work of our shelter by encouraging pet adoption!
