When it comes to senior cats, they don’t come more adorable or lovable than “Oscar”, the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter Featured Pet of the Week.
Oscar has been at the DeKalb Animal Shelter for a while and needs a home of his own.
“Oscar is our senior pet. He is nine years old. Oscar is super loving, but he wants to love you on his own terms. He will let you pet and play with him, but he is more to himself. He would probably prefer to be the only pet in the household unless you have another cat who minds his own business as well. Health wise Oscar is fantastic. He has been neutered, micro-chipped and is up to date on everything. This sweet boy has been here for a while, and we really want to find him a quiet place to go probably somewhere with older children or if you live alone and want a sweet cat. His adoption fee has been reduced to $40,” said Shelter Director Emmaly Bennett.
“If you are interested in adopting Oscar, please check out the adoptable pet’s link on our website to fill out an application at https://www.dekalbanimalsheltertn.com/ and we will call you to come in and meet him,” said Bennett.
The shelter is open Monday-Friday from 8 to 4 and Saturday from 8 to 12 at 186 Transfer Station Road. Phone 615-597-3647.
