LOST PETS!!!!!!
CAPITAL DISTRICT SENIOR PETS LOOKING FOR FUREVER HOMES
Senior pets are the best companions but they are often overlooked because of their age. Please give these pets a second chance and possibly a first chance at a loving home!!
A BIG THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ADOPTED FROM APF LAST WEEK AND SAVED 60 LIVES!
(ESPECIALLY THE LONELY HEARTS CLUB CATS)
These beauties are all available at the
Animal Protective Foundation 374-3944
Keep checking their website (animalprotective.org) and this one for more cats in need of homes! APF still has June adoption specials!!
Not all of us are seniors but we'd still like to get adopted!
