Big Ben
Age: 7 years old
Breed(s): Domestic Short Hair
My name is Big Ben, the name explains itself. I am a loving 7 year old boy. Some people call be a personal assistant. You're working on the computer? Let me press the keys. Reading the paper? I'll hold the pages down for you. Watching TV? I'll just plop in your lap or next to you since I am a lil heavy so you can pet me. I love an orderly household, don't you? I'll help you with all your chores, and I'll help you relax when we're done. You'll wonder how you ever managed without me. Ben is in foster care because he's on a weight loss program thanks to our friends at City Kitty Vet! If you are interested in Ben, contact us at 421-1399!
Asher
Age: 11 years old
Breed(s): Pitbull mix
Hello! My name is Asher, and I'm the definition of a gentleman. At 11 years young, I'm looking for a home to live out my golden years...don't let my age fool you, I LOVE to play and go on walks! A low key home would be best for me, with older kids or adults. I'm a friend to most animals I meet, but would prefer a home where I can be spoiled. If you love being outside in the sun, and snuggling in bed, and laughing all the time...I'm the guy for you!
Oreo
Age: 2 year old
Breed(s): Domestic Shorthair
Hi, my name is Oreo and I'm a beautiful 2yr old girl who has lived with cats and kids. My feline-ality is personal assistant. I'm a savvy cat who knows the score. I'm pretty unflappable, too. I don't mind entertaining myself, but a human companion at the other end of the couch and a nice scratch behind the ears always make my day. If you're looking for a resourceful addition to your team, think about signing this Most Valuable Pussycat.
Daisy
Age: 5 months old
Breed(s): Pitbull mix
Hello! My name is Daisy and I'm a 5 month old little lady. I am the sweetest puppy that loves to play with people and other dogs.

If you are looking for a new friend to keep you company and make you laugh, I may be your girl!
Muffin
Age: 5 years old
Breed(s): Domestic Long Hair
Hi, I'm Muffin! I'm a 5 year old female and my feline-ality is Executive! I have to say, I'm a busy cat. First, I've got to check out what's happening out the window. Next, I'll see if any closets or cupboards need looking into. And then there are my naps--can't be late for those. I can fit a little socializing into my schedule. Shall we plan on breakfast and dinner? I hope you like kibbles.
Sage
Age: 1 year old
Breed(s): Pitbull mix
Meet Sage! He's a handsome, 1 year old, sweet heart who's always ready to play. He already has a couple of tricks up his sleeve, but he's a smart boy who's always ready to learn new things. He loves knowing that he's done a good job! Toys are his favorite, any kind, and someone with a lot of energy would be a perfect fit. He's a little too rambunctious for small kids, cats, or small dogs, but he loves meeting new people and thinks large dogs like him are great fun. He would love to spend summer running around outside with you and taking long naps in the sun - come meet him today!
Sammy

Hi, my name is Sammy and I'm a handsome 5 year old guy. The feline-ality that best fits me is sidekick. Like all sidekicks, I'm just plain good company. I like attention, and I also like my solitude. I don't go looking for trouble but I'm no scaredy- cat, either. If you are looking for a steady companion to travel with you on the road of life, look no further.
