SIMBA — DOMESTIC SHORTHAIR ORANGE TABBY

Age: 4 months.

Story: Simba and two other kittens were born in a trailer park and had a nice man who fed them. Then a mountain lion moved in and they all survived that ordeal. Finally, the three cute kittens were rescued and came to Paws Patrol. There they got plenty of food, shelter, safety and love. Simba now needs a home; his friends Oreo and Shadow are already adopted. Simba is a handsome orange tabby, and he loves attention. He will get along with other cats but he doesn’t really trust dogs since there were a few aggressive ones in the trailer park. With the right home, love and protection, Simba and you will be the perfect family. Adoption qualifications required.

Fee: $50, includes microchip, neutering and current shots.

KAPPY — GREYHOUND

Age: 3 years.

Story: Kappy is a big male weighing in at almost 90 pounds and loves to run just for fun. He gets along well with his greyhound foster brother and sisters. He behaves on his walks, even when he see bunnies. (He does love to watch them and dreams of encountering one when not on leash.) He uses the doggie door to go outside to potty and just loves getting pets from people. Kappy is a tiny bit afraid of squeaky toys and people throwing things like tennis balls. He would prefer a non-squeaky, non-throwing home. Kappy is super-nice and handsome. He needs a home with no small animals or children and would like another large hound for companionship.

OPAME — DLH DILUTE CALICO

Age: 7½ years.

Story: Opame is our resident “model” kitty, and her gorgeous locks and pretty face can attest to that! Her beauty is more than skin-deep, however, as she is loving and sweet. Because she’s a little retiring, she is cautious on first meeting, but within a few moments she lets her affections flood out into purrs and snuggles. She gets along with other cats, but we’re not sure about how she feels about dogs. Needs a quieter home, as she’s not a boisterous kitty.

Meet: 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday; closed Sunday-Monday.
