Sweet 7 month old kittens, young cats and dogs ISO loving homes

Waifs & Strays Animal Rescue is a licensed, not-for- profit rescue that has some great animals in need of new homes and families.  Our dogs and cats are examined by a veterinarian, are healthy and well socialized, spayed/neutered, microchipped, current on all immunizations and come with a free wellness exam.  Please visit www.waifsandstrays.petfinder.org or our website www.waifsandstraysrescue.org to see and read about our wonderful animals that are up for adoption.  When looking for that new member of your family, please rescue from a legitimate animal rescue/shelter and don’t buy from a store that sells animals.  A true rescue wants to ensure that the animal is a very good “fit” for the family, and they put a lot of thought and time into the adoption process.  When you adopt from not-for-profit rescues and animal shelters, one hundred percent of your adoption fee goes directly toward medical expenses (exams by veterinarians, spay/neuters, immunizations, medications, lab work, microchips, etc.) and daily care (food, litter, etc.) AND you are actually helping to provide for other homeless animals waiting for adoption both now and in the future.  Most animal shelters and rescues post their animals on Petfinder (www.petfinder.org) so if you are looking for a certain breed or mix, you can probably find just what you are looking for there.  Please remember to rescue, don’t buy.
