LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Several new calico kittens, an orange tabby and Siamese are waiting for adoption at Lake County Animal Care and Control this week.
The cats range in age from 16 weeks to 6 years and will be altered and vaccinated before they are sent home with their new families.
In addition to spaying or neutering, cats that are adopted from Lake County Animal Care and Control are microchipped before being released to their new owner. License fees do not apply to residents of the cities of Lakeport or Clearlake.
