We are happy to report that the orange male kitten, Sammy, has left us for his forever home. Here’s to many years of love and happiness. And a big thank you to Madeline and Celia for their $22 donation raised through their lemonade stand. It’s greatly appreciated.

Our featured pet of the week is Jasmine, a stunning, long-haired, gray/dilute calico cat with green eyes. Her age is 13 and she is looking for someone to adore her. Jasmine does consider herself to be the queen, so she would be happiest as an only cat.

Our newest resident is Marbles, a three-year-old, gray and black, female tabby cat. She is an affectionate, playful girl who enjoys laps and being held. However, she can be intolerant of other cats so we recommend that she be in a single-cat home.

Also available are brothers Peter and Teddy, 10-month-old, black male rabbits. They have been hand raised and are litter box trained. Both are very friendly and love to be held and cuddled. And they’re happy living indoors or out.

Did you know that while dogs are at the shelter, training is implemented whenever necessary? When a dog is adopted, the new owner gets one free training session courtesy of Jeremy Jones. We also provide puppy training classes; the next one begins Sept. 17 at 9:30 a.m. The six sessions cost $300.

Please contact the shelter for more information. The shelter phone number is 508-627-8662.
