Pet of the Week

Little Packages Labelled "Handle With Care!"

These "pet packages" arrive labeled "Handle With Care". But when you open them, you find lovely jewels inside!

Morgan

This petite female cat has a beautiful calico coat and big green-gold eyes. Morgan hangs back in her cage, though, and you'll think "Handle With Care". But sweet Morgan comes out willingly, warms right up, and loves lap time. A young adult who's already spayed and up-to-date on her shots, Morgan deserves a home with a person able to give her the care and handling she deserves.

 

Belinda and Girl

Belinda (on the left) is a small, female schnauzer cross with a dark gray coat, big eyes, and a gentle nature. Belinda is about 3 years old, and is timid until she gets used to you. She will also need to learn some basics like how to walk on a leash. However, with a dog experienced owner able to give her the training she needs, Belinda should grow into a lovely little dog.

Girl is a feisty little cross of Yorkie and Jack Russell terrier, and is also (like Belinda) a young adult female. Girl needs someone able to handle her active and exuberant nature. But give her the training and exercise she needs, and Girl will delight many an owner!

For more information on available animals you can email shelter@saukhumane.org or contact the shelter by phone at 356-2520 or check out the Available Animals.
