If you are looking for a new furry family member for your home, please consider adopting from one of our area shelters. There are thousands of pets each year in Northern Michigan who lose their family for one reason or another. Rescue is love!
From the Little Traverse Bay Humane Shelter
My name is Finx and I’m a sweet Beagle mix that is forever finished with motherhood and ready for a loving home. I’m two years and very good with everyone. What more can I say? I’m quiet, clean, and very well mannered. However, I am a Beagle and will need to be contained, either with a fenced in yard or leash, otherwise I may wander around the neighborhood-especially if I catch the scent of something interesting. I sure wish you would come in and pay me a visit because a forever family is what I desire more than anything.

The name is Weasel and I’m a long hair grey and white cat that is fairly quiet and keeps to himself. I’m only six months old so there’s room for growth and expanding my horizons. I don’t mind visitors at all, but my hope is give my heart to a loving family. The holidays are coming up and my mind wanders to thoughts of “There’s no place like home.” I think I heard that once in a movie when I was just a wee little ball of fur. Anyway, I’ll keep my paws crossed that I find my forever home soon.

AC PAWS
GRACIE IS OUR AC PAW PET OF THE WEEK and one of four cats we are featuring this week rescued from a hoarding situation in Kingsley. They are four of 86 cats that were rescued by AC PAW. Most all have been placed, but we have some still in foster homes waiting to be adopted. Gracie is a very sweet cat who is still learning to trust people. She has never known the love of a family until now. Gracie loves to be brushed and have her face rubbed. She has a very unique walk. She is good with her foster mom’s kitten and should be okay with other cats if introduced slowly. She has never been around dogs. She would do well in a quiet home with older children. She is a short hair three year old brown tabby. If you would like to adopt Gracie or for more information, go to ACPaw.org and fill out a pre-adoption questionnaire.

Meet Logan. We have him listed as a 2 year old Parson Russell Terrier mix. Logan came to us from another shelter and we are still getting to know each other. Logan seems to have the traits of a Jack Russell Terrier. Smart, intense and ready to play hard. If you are looking for a high activity dog, please come and spend some time to get to know Logan. He may just be the perfect fit.

From AuSable Valley Animal Shelter
Two year old Marigold is an exceptionally nice girl. She is Lab mixed with Mystery Mutt and has a very intelligent and thoughtful nature. Marigold does know some simple commands and has a good start on house training. She needs work on her leash manners though because she does still pull.
This is not a particularly brave dog so she sometimes acts apprehensive around strangers but the people that she knows are dear to her. Marigold will be so happy to be adopted and have a family to dote on. She is okay with other dogs but can be a bit of an alpha so may be more suitable as an only dog. Marigold can not live in a home with cats so a feline free home is a must.
This dog has been spayed, vaccinated and micro-chipped. Marigold is all ready to go home!
For more information, please call the shelter at (989) 348-4117 or e-mail: avascares@yahoo.com
