LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control has two cats in needs of loving, forever homes this week.
Claudia and Max – who shelter staff said are charming and affectionate – are waiting for 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.
If you're looking for a new companion, visit the shelter. There are many great pets there, hoping you'll choose them.
In addition to the animals featured here, all adoptable animals in Lake County can be seen here: http://bit.ly/Z6xHMb .
The following cats at the Lake County Animal Care and Control shelter have been cleared for adoption (other cats pictured on the animal control Web site that are not listed here are still “on hold”).
'Max'
“Max” is a 1-year-old male domestic short hair mix with a cool tuxedo coat.
Shelter staff said Max came in injured and his owner surrendered him.
He's a big, sweet healthy boy who is affectionate and will greet you, waiting to be petted.
Max is neutered and vaccinated, so he is ready for the right person, or family, to take him to his forever home.
He's in cat room kennel No. 53, ID 1646.
'Claudia'
The lovely and sweet Claudia continues to wait at Lake County Animal Care and Control for a new home, and she needs one quickly.
She is 6 years old, and a coat with white and brown tabby markings, and is already spayed so she has a low adoption fee.
Claudia greets visitors, loving to get attention and pats. She loves to play with toys and to be cuddled.
She's in cat room kennel No. 73, ID No. 1316.
