Lovey Dovey

Breed: Siamese/ Mix
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Hi! I am Lovey Dovey, a 7 year old male Siamese mix. I am looking for a home where I can be the only cat. I had some spraying issues in my first home, but there was another cat there. I haven't had any spraying issues since arriving at the shelter and having my own space. I am hoping for a low stress household, so any children in the home should be 14 years or older. If you have a mellow dog, that should be fine with a slow introduction, I liked the dog in my last home. I also like hunting and sitting in laps. I am outgoing, friendly, feisty, playful and active. What more could you ask for? I am neutered and can head home with you today!

Brutus

Breed: Boxer/ Mastiff
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Oh dear, how did I end up here? My name is Brutus, and I'm a big boy! I'm about 2 years old and weigh 93lbs. In my last home I did well with other dogs, and kids. What I did not do well with was being left alone uncrated. I really want to be with my person and get anxious when I'm by myself so the shelter recommends crate training and food puzzles to keep my occupied and out of trouble. The shelter recommends we attend positive-reinforcement training together to help my confidence and refine my skills. I'm neutered, and ready to go home with my new family.

Cleopatra

Breed: Domestic Shorthair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Adult

We are looking for a working home for Cleopatra, a short-haired tabby with social issues. She is a feral cat - or close to. Cleo previously lived outside and was fed by a kind, elderly woman but never wanted close contact. At this point we are looking for a home that needs a working cat for organic pest control. The shelter is happy to provide you with the tools to acclimate Cleo to your barn/warehouse/attic/etc..., plus she is already spayed, up-to-date on shots, and microchipped. 2-year-old Cleo is in a quiet room at the shelter. Ask a staff member to show you, or email [email protected] for more information. In CIA.

Skye

Breed: Airedale Terrier/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Young

Hi there, Skye is my name. The shelter thinks I am a one year old Airedale mix and I weigh about 52lbs. I'm cute and sassy and although I know sit the shelter thinks obedience classes would be a great idea because I could use some continuing education. There should be no cats in my home because I am one very intense terrier when around them. Also, the shelter recommends kids in the home be 16 & up. I can be shy but on the flip side mouthy when playing or being handled. Skye is being treated for an ear infection at the shelter and her new owners will need to follow up with their vet.

Sam Lorek

Breed: Alaskan Malamute/ Akita
Gender: Male
Age: Adult

Don't know how I ended up with two names, but I'm Sam Lorek. As you can tell I'm one handsome boy. My previous owner says I'm a Malamute/Akita mix and I'm 4-1/2 years old and weigh in at 108lbs. I really haven't lived inside and got bored and jumped the 4' fence to go exploring with my buddy Ghost. I need a home without small dogs, cats or caged pets and definitely need a home with a higher fence. The shelter strongly recommends that Sam Lorek not be left unattended in the yard because even 6' fence wouldn't be much of a challenge for this big guy to scale.

Aurora

Breed: Domestic Medium Hair/ Mix
Gender: Female
Age: Young

Hi there! My name is Aurora and I'm looking for a new home. I am currently at Pets on Broadway. Call or stop by any time during open hours to find out more about me! I arrived at the shelter with 6 other cats after we were abandoned by our owner. I am a very sweet girl that loves attention. If you are looking for an outgoing kitty, I'm your girl! Unfortunately, because I was covered in fleas, I have developed an allergy. My new family will need to keep me on quality, monthly flea control for the rest of my life. Indoor living only would be best for me too, so I get the least amount of exposure to fleas as possible. I am about 1 year old and weigh 6.6 pounds. Please come and meet me at Pets on Broadway today!

Muffy

I am looking for a retirement home. You know, the kind of place where things move at a slower pace and I can mosey through my day.

I have lived previously with other mature dogs and cats but would not like a home with a young rowdy dog or young children. I am a sweet older lady looking for a soft place to land. Please ask about me. I am about 14 years of age.
