Winnie

Two-year-old Winnie is a very sweet girl. This pup can be playful and laid-back. Regardless if she’s playing or lounging, she wants to be around people. She would make a wonderful companion. Winnie can be shy at first, but it won’t take her long to warm-up to you, especially if you adopt her! She’s afraid of shelter life and ready to be in the comfort of a loving home. You’ll be teaching her ticks in no time! Winnie already knows sit and shake. This smart girl is ready to learn more. Winnie has been spayed, microchipped and vaccinated. You can adopt her for free, thanks to the LMAS Pay It Forward free adoption promotion. 

Victoria

This petite kitty is sure to make you say, “Aw!” Victoria is a lover. Not only does she cuddle humans, but other cats! She currently has a best friend kitty in the shelter that she likes to cozy-up with in a cat bed. Victoria sure is not afraid of heights. She enjoys sitting in high places where she can see all the action. You can adopt her for free, thanks to the LMAS Pay It Forward free adoption promotion.

 

 If you’d like to meet Winnie or Victoria or learn more about them, stop by the LMAS Animal House Adoption Center at 3516 Newburg Rd. or call (502) 473-PETS.
