Velvet
Meet Velvet, a one year old, female, Plott Hound, mix dog. Her smooth as velvet coat is reddish-brown and coal-black brindle, and she wears a frosty white strip on her chest. Velvet is sweet, submissive, friendly and gentle. She does well indoors, loves the outdoors and will benefit from a fenced-in yard where she can exercise. Plotts are eager to please, loyal, intelligent and alert in the home. Velvet does vocalize a bit and she may just have the Plott’s “voice.” This good dog will make a fine pet and she is available through Saturday at the shelter.
Abbi and Gimmy
Brother and sister kittens, Abbi and Gimmy, are ready for fun. They love to play and explore but also love to be held and cuddled. Abbi and Gimmy are three months old and have lush, medium coats. Abbi has the British Blue characteristics of deep golden eyes, a smoky silver coat and a penchant for bonding with their owner. She has a deliciously curious nature and delights in finding new places to explore. Gimmy‘s coat is a luscious ebony and his large, deep golden eyes don’t miss a thing. He is a cuddler and he purrs like a diesel when held. Both of these sweet, loving kittens will melt your heart and bring years of fun and companionship to any family environment.
Abbi and Gimmy are available through Saturday at the shelter.
