Calling all cat lovers!
The DeKalb Animal Shelter has lots of cats in need of permanent homes. If you would like to adopt one or more contact the shelter today.
“Crow” is the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”.
“Crow is one of our little Halloween babies. We have a whole litter of black kittens that we need to find homes for. Crow is about 4 months old and he is solid black in color except for the white tip of his tail. He is super affectionate, fun, and really good with other cats. He is just a happy playful little baby. His adoption fee is $60. He will be neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and de-wormed. Just go to our website and fill out an adoption application and we will call you to come and meet him,” said Shelter Director Emmaly Bennett.
For more information phone 615-597-3647.
