LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Calico and tabby cats are waiting for adoption at Lake County Animal Care and Control this week.
The cats are a mix of short and longhair mixes, with four adults and two kittens.
For those looking for lost pets as a result of the Valley fire, visit the Lake County Animal Care and Control Web site, which features additional dogs and cats that officials are looking to reunite with their 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.
