Sherie

Sherie … Sherie baby, I’m gonna make-a you mi-yi-yi-yine! That’s what you are going to say when you visit Sherie at the Shelter. This one-year-old, silver Tabby has delicious, dark gray, ebony and warm walnut brown markings. A domestic shorthair-mix, Sherie is friendly, likes to communicate by talking and gesturing, and she loves to sit on your lap as she is stroked and petted, that is, when you move it nice and easy. A cat for any good forever home, Sherie is available through Saturday at the shelter.

Spark

Put a little spark of love in your life, stop by the shelter and see, Spark. This one-year-old, Carolina Dog-mix is a medium size and a trim 31 pounds of cute. He’s a little on the shy side right now because of all the changes he is experiencing, but he’s coming along nicely and has started wagging his tail when he sees people. He has been neutered and owner surrendered, so he is available for immediate adoption for a fee of $15. Sparks is smart, seems to know basic commands and he walks well on a leash. With tender, loving care, Spark will make a good pet and he is available through Saturday at the shelter.
