Zag — Queensland Heeler/Shepherd Mix
ID No: A617958.
Age: 2 years.
Story: Zag has the best smile! He can be a bit shy when meeting new people and is a recent graduate of our decompression program, which gives fearful dogs some special attention to help them adjust to the shelter. Zag would do best in a calm, patient home who would give him lots of love and time to learn to trust.
Fees: Waived due to Zag’s length of stay.
Sammie — Maine Coon Mix
ID No.: A617968.
Age: 8 years.
Story: Sammie is one seriously regal cat. She has the most gorgeous fur and is super-affectionate. She would make a great companion! She is bonded with her friend Sophie, which means they would need to go to their new home together. Both came to PACC when their owner passed away and they had no one to care for them. They would love to be home for the holidays.
Fees: Waived.
Bonnie — Domestic longhair mix
ID No: A618756.

Fees: Waived as she is a member of the shelter’s Silver Whiskers Club.

Qualities: Boscoe’s special friend said, “Dogs like Boscoe come around once or twice in a lifetime. He was accident-free in the house all weekend, eager to please, calm, and just loves being with people. He was very patient and gentle with my 5-year-old and took treats from her with great manners.”

Cato — longhaired orange and white tabby
Age: 7 years.
Qualities: Cato had a great life until his mom had to go into assisted living. Given his personality (and superb good looks and loving nature) someone else is going to fill that void in his life, just like he’ll do for them. Cato has never been around kids, but we’re guessing that he would be great around them.
Fee: $45.

Africa — Greyhound
Age: 2 years old
Story: Africa is a young and cute brindle girl that possibly could be a sporty hound. She likes being in the shallow end of the pool so she may be able to become a good water dog. She also can get in the most peculiar positions so could maybe even take up yoga with you. Africa is also house-trained, a quick learner and loves hugs. So check out this active and perky hound who would love to be a special part of your home, life and most of all heart. Give her a call. She will be forever grateful.
Fee: $350.

Puttins—cat
Age: About 9 years.
Story: This beautiful cat has been bounced around a bit, and came to Paws Patrol with a broken jaw and missing teeth. She has healed and she is a dedicated lap cat. She wants to be with her human 24/7, and all she wants is love. Because of her missing teeth, Puttins eats only soft food so her food needs to be watered down and chopped into small pieces.
Fee: $25. Adoption includes microchip, spaying and current shots.
