There are so many gorgeous guys and gals available for adoption at your local shelters. Check out this amazing array of awesome cats and dogs ready to go home with you today!
Available for adoption at North Shore Animal League America:
Locally rescued, Zenith (MA3510) is a lovely young feline that arrived as a frightened kitten, but once she learned she was safe, Zenith grew to enjoy the company of other calm cats and humans. She would do best if her first home is one with someone experienced with cats to help her transition.
Dozer (E3137), known as the spotted wonder dog, is a real survivor. Animal League America rescued him from the ravages of Hurricane Florence and our top-notch veterinary staff treated his orthopedic issues and painful skin condition.
He’s been making a dramatic recovery but faced one more challenge: Dozer is deaf. But he is so smart. Our special boy has already learned hand signals for basic commands such as “Come,” “Sit,” and “Down,” and responds to the “Thumbs Up” signal that means “Good Job” (he knows that means a treat.)
This American Bulldog/Boxer mix is walking nicely on a leash. Dozer can’t wait to find a home of his own with an experienced adopter while he continues to heal. Our pet behaviorists will teach his family how to keep him mentally stimulated until he is ready to run and play at top speed again and will provide six (6) complimentary training sessions at our Port Washington campus.
For more info about adopting Zenith and Dozer, please email MikeS@animalleague.org.
Available for adoption at Almost Home Animal Rescue:

Available for adoption at Bideawee:
Tricia is a bold and brilliant beauty, who truly stands apart from the crowd! Boasting a fantastic honey and caramel brindle coat, shinning golden eyes, and a large, pink tongue, she is impossible to miss. Truly spirited and gung-ho for life, she is ready to adventure, play, or jog at the drop of a hat! A genuine social butterfly, she also loves making friends, and saying hello to everyone who crosses her path. Tricia is seeking an equally jubilant home, with mature adopters that share in her active lifestyle, who love to be on the go! Tricia also loves to learn, so any obedience-savvy family that will continue to teach her tricks and cues are idyllic. bideawee.org/Pet/39278368
Chicklet is a very handsome 7-year-old fella that everyone adores. Donning a fantastic brindle coat, warm eyes and a sweet disposition, Chicklet is truly a gem. While mature, he is still silly and playful, and has a spirited heart! Not to mention, he is full of love and affection for people. He may be 77 pounds, but he is a true gentle giant, and is just a darling with everyone he meets. He is well-mannered and is already housebroken; all he is missing now is the home to call his own. bideawee.org/Pet/39500720

Available for adoption at Little Shelter:
Veruca is a 9-year-old Chihuahua mix who is looking for her second chance at a furever home. She’s a sweet girl who loves finding soft places to curl up and take a nap. She likes to be the center of attention at all times and demands affection from staff and handlers. This spunky little girl enjoys going for short walks and playing in the grass. Let’s be honest, Veruca is a cool girl with a very cool name…head down and adopt her before someone else does!
Emilia is a super friendly cat who is just looking for someone who wants to be her best friend. She LOVES people and follows staff back and forth throughout the cattery looking for attention. It may be hard to believe, but this cutie pie was rescued near a train station where she was going up to people on the platform looking for attention! Right now she’s hoping Santa will hear her Christmas wish and bring her a family of her very own.
For more information about adopting Veruca and Emilia, please contact Little Animal Rescue & Adoption Center at 33 Warner Rd, Huntington, 631-368-8770.
Available for adoption at the Town of Huntington Cat Shelter:
Rollo is just as sweet as her name, she’s a really good girl who wants to always be at your side. She is quite the snuggly kitty and will sit on your lap all day. Rollo’s a master the art of relaxation Zen and is willing to teach her furever family. When not lounging in your lap, Rollo is also a very curious kitty who likes exploring her surroundings or trying to help with whatever you are doing. She loves treats and will “beg” for turkey from the volunteers.
Ajax is a big mush that always wants to be the center of attention. No matter what you’re doing, he will come right up and sit in front of you so that you’ll pet him. He’ll follow you around and weave between your legs or grab at your pants with his paw. Once he gets the affection he wants, he’ll find a sunny spot to sunbathe while keeping an eye on everything you do. If Ajax sounds like the cat for you, head down and meet him today.
For more information about adopting Rollo and Ajax, please contact the Town of Huntington Cat Shelter located at 104 Deposit Rd, East Northport, 631-651-9788.
Available for adoption through the No Kill Project:
Oreo and Pepper are 6-month-old brothers and are as lovable as they come! Initially shy, they come around quickly and become two of the biggest lovebugs around. They would love nothing more than to find a home in time for the holidays.
Because black and black and white kittens are the most overlooked pets, Oreo and Pepper are the last two siblings out of six who have not yet found their home. All six siblings were found in a very dangerous situation.
Oreo and Pepper have been neutered, microchipped, tested negative for feline leukemia and AIDS, and have been vaccinated. They are now just waiting for a home to call their own. Please email info@thenokillproject.org to inquire about these two lovable and playful kittens.
Available for adoption from Second Chance Rescue:
Poor Sweetheart has been waiting for her forever home for way to long. She was originally rescued from a yard in New Jersey, where she was abandoned. Sweetheart is adorable and very attached to people. She loves everyone she meets and is very obedient. She loves to give kisses and will sit on you (since she thinks she’s a lapdog).
Her favorite thing to do is to walk under your legs when you are sitting in a chair, and then sit right under your legs. She enjoys walks, car rides, outdoor exercise, playing fetch, and every minute of your attention she can get. All she wants is to hang out with her person.
Sweetheart doesn’t mind being dressed up and she loves her pajamas! She is gentle with treats although she is missing lots of teeth and prefers soft treats. Unfortunately, she needs to be an only pet at home, and isn’t recommended younger kids either (over 13 year old and respectful would be good!).
She knows a bunch of commands, and is house trained and crate trained too. Please consider this gal and tag a friend who mind need a new bestie. For more information, visit nycsecondchancerescue.org or email Rescue@nycsecondchancerescue.org.
As always, thanks for reading and please remember to always adopt, never shop…pass it on!
