Jasmine

Gorgeous in her American shorthair coat, this tabby girl is dressed in stripes of buff, silver and ebony. Highlights of white appear on her beautiful face; huge pale green eyes and a rosebud nose complete her stunning image. Friendly, loving and calm, our 2-year-old Jasmine will offer a meow and extend her paw in a greeting. She adores attention — petting and head bumps, especially. When given the love, warmth and stability of a good forever home, she will blossom into a devoted friend, pet and companion.

For more information, visit www.facebook.com/EncShelterCats/. Jasmine’s ID is No. 2168.

Come in and meet this remarkable cat; she’s available at the shelter.

 

Reba

This sweet girl is an approximately 2-year-old, small-size, hound mix. Reba, with beautiful markings in red and white, has warm melt-your-heart eyes and gorgeous hound ears.

Her nature is gentle, friendly and easygoing. Way too thin, Reba needs owner(s) willing to give her nutritious food on a regular schedule, good care, love, affection, attention, consistent exercise in a fenced area or on a leash and some basic obedience training. Reba will make a great family member and companion in a good loving, forever home.

For more information, visit www.facebook.com/EncShelterDogs. Reba’s ID No. 2158.

Come in and meet her — you’ll be glad you did. She’s available at the shelter.
