He may be house-trained since he did come from a home.

He shows interest in toys and he likes attention from the volunteers.
Dino
Dino was found as a stray. He was staying around a someone’s garage for a couple of weeks. He is a very shy gentleman and doesn’t understand what is happening in his life. He is calm and easily handled but not used to being held. He loves to be pet. He is coming out of his shell and will need a quiet home.

Penelope is a 1-year-old female DSH Calico mix. She came to PAWS pregnant and gave birth to five kittens. Most of her kittens have been adopted, and it’s time for this sweet girl to find her home. She’s pretty much a kitten herself! She is very playful and fun. She is litter-box trained and up to date on vaccinations.
Priscilla
Priscilla is a female DSH chocolate-point Siamese and is approximately 4 years old. She is such a sweet cat who loves being scratched and loved. Priscilla came to PAWS pregnant.

She is litter-box trained, spayed, and up to date on her vaccinations.
Tex
Tex is approximately 1 year old and is a male Great Dane mix. He is still growing! Tex was confiscated in Nevada in a cruelty case. That’s about all of the history we have on him. He is such a sweet boy and loves people and other dogs. You need to meet this guy to appreciate all he has to offer. He will make a great family pet, so hurry in soon before he’s gone!
Atlas
Atlas is a 1-year-old male Catahoula/Lab mix. He is very smart and full of energy! Atlas is just a big goofy puppy! He can also leap tall buildings in a single bound. Okay, just kidding on that one. However, he can jump or climb over a six-foot chain-link fence with no problem. He will need a yard with a very tall fence to keep him from getting out.
