Cat of the week: Luigi
Luigi is a very sweet, and, as you can see, a very handsome young man. However, he is VERY timid, although he loves to play and be petted. He needs someone special to be patient and gain his trust and love and accept him the way he is. Another feline would help make him more comfortable in his new surroundings. Is that special someone you? Please come by and meet Luigi - he can be found in Comm 1. More about Luigi

Dog of the Week: Banks
Meet Banks. He’s a beautiful crème-colored Husky who came to the shelter as an owner-surrender. He is 5-years-old and weighs 60-lbs. He is a kind and gentle soul who loves people. A former city dweller, Banks would love a fenced yard with an active family that will include him in their daily exercise letting him do what Huskies do best--run. It’s time for this amazing canine to begin his new journey with his forever family. More about Banks
