Pet Pal Animal Shelter
Shy but sweet. At 9 weeks, Brenna’s a tiny, 6-pound pup with one wish: a happy home with treats aplenty, love, and soft beds.

Pet Pal Animal Shelter
Maybe it means Before Cuddles? Pet Pal Animal Shelter workers say they don’t know what B.C. stands for, but perhaps it means “Beautiful Cat.” This 1-year-old tabby loves to cuddle under blankets, and word on the street is that she also gives kitty hugs.

Pet Pal Animal Shelter
Luck o’ the Irish. Clancy’s 9 weeks old, weighs 5 1/2 pounds, and would love to spend St. Paddy’s Day with a new family.

Pet Pal Animal Shelter
Apolitical. Despite his name, Newt doesn’t care about politics (a refreshing change), but this 1-year-old kittie does care about love.

Stella!!!! This kitty loves pets, exploring, and playing with toys. Also, she’s blind. No one knows what caused this 5-year-old kitty to go blind, or if she was born that way, but it doesn’t slow her down. Stella needs a little time to adapt to her new environment, but if you adopt this blind kitty, you’ll get rewarded with a happy, social kitty cat.
