Puppy - SPCA
This Puppy is not actually a dog, but he is still ready to be man's best friend. He is a sweet, two year old tabby cat. Puppy likes attention and enjoys being petted. He came to the shelter after a family member developed allergies- he is so ready to be back in a home. Puppy has lived with dogs, cats, and children in the past and would likely be happy to do so again. (SPCA of Anne Arundel County)
Groucho - SPCA
Don't let the name fool you, Groucho is definitely not a grouch! This cute kitten is very gentle and somewhat shy. He spends a lot of time hiding at the back of his cage, but a little sweet-talk and some gentle head rubs is all it takes to get him out of his shell. Groucho is only 6 months old and he should be growing up in a home, not in the shelter! (SPCA of Anne Arundel County)
Macadamia Dove - SPCA
Macadamia Dove is as sweet as candy. She is a senior lady and requires a special diet to keep her kidneys healthy. She still has a lot of love to share and will be a great companion. Macadamia Dove is 13 years young. She has a super soft coat and she loves to snuggle. (SPCA of Anne Arundel County)
Davidson - SPCA
Davidson and his siblings, Jetson, Jackson, and Sampson are 4 months old now. They love to play and are very fun, active kittens. They are all identical black kittens and often seem to get overlooked in the shelter. They are able to go home individually but would love a feline friend (or a sibling!) to entertain. We still have lots of kittens available, visit our website www.aacspca.org to see the full list. (SPCA of Anne Arundel County)
Sputnik - AACACC
Sputnik, 9, is a confident, handsome gray and white male cat who weighs 20 pounds and has an outsized personality to matches his size. He has met several dogs while living in a shelter staffer's office and done well with all of them. He also ignores the resident gerbils in the room. He's a keeper! (Anne Arundel County Animal Care and Control)
Dudley - AACACC
Dudley, 10 months, is a 55-pound plott hound mix with a dark brindle coat highlighted with white. He was adopted by a family and returned a day later because he was too playful and puppy-mouthy for the young children. He is indeed a fun-loving young fellow who still is learning not to jump on people. (Anne Arundel County Animal Care and Control)
Harley - AACACC
Harley, orange and white, "eagerly hops right up for petting sessions, gratefully licking the human, giving head bumps, nose touches, body nuzzles, lean ins-and more," his foster says. He's diabetic but takes his insulin easily. He loves Pooh; the two brothers are definitely "a package deal," says their foster. (Anne Arundel County Animal Care and Control)
Pooh - AACACC
Pooh, an orange long-haired male cat, is half of a bonded duo that also includes his brother Harley. These 7-year-old siblings were given up to Animal Care & Control June 3 because their owner was pregnant. The pair are living in a foster home; their foster will be glad to bring them to the shelter to meet you. (Anne Arundel County Animal Care and Control)
