“Tara is about a year and three months old and she is the mother to two of our kittens that we also have here. Tara has officially been here the longest out of all the other cats. She is super sweet and gets along well with other cats. Tara loves kids. She loves everybody. Tara is ready for a home,” said Shelter employee Emmaly Bennett.
“To adopt Tara, go to our website. www.dekalbanimalcoalition.org and look for a tab to fill out an application. Fill it out and email it back to us. We will call to set up an appointment time for you to come in and meet Tara to see if she is a perfect fit for you,” said Bennett.
The DeKalb Animal Shelter is currently only open by appointment due to Covid-19.
“If you are interested in any of our dogs and cats fill out an adoption application and send it to our email. We will call and set up a time for you to come in and meet your favorite pet and go from there. We are not currently open to the public for in-person visits but all our pets are posted online. Stay up to date with us on our website, facebook page, or Instagram,” said Shelter Director Megan Moore.
