#1211 "Chloe"

DSH Calico female young adult. I made a couple of photos outside of this sweetie. However, I decided to show exactly how this baby came in today. She was surrendered in this basket with this toy. It is very evident that she was loved. She was surrendered by an elderly lady that is scheduled for a knee replacement. She has already tripped over the cat. The staff told us that she was in tears when she left Chloe. When we took her outside for a photo, she shivered. She is a precious cat. So loving and well cared for. Please give this sweetie the home she deserves. Please contact the Gordon Co. Animal Shelter in Calhoun Ga. @ 706-629-3327 for more info. (photo by Retta Stephens Singleton).

#1405, Border Collie Mix, Black/White, Under 6 Months, Male. This little guy was the first dog we met today. He was very unsure of what he was supposed to do with a leash, so we just carried him.
