Dreamer, adoptable from Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society
“Hi! My name’s Dreamer and I’m a 13-year-old spayed female. My former owners brought me to Lucy Mackenzie when they realized I was really unhappy and not being treated well in our home. The other cats in the house had been making my life miserable, and I’m not the type to fight back.
“The good news is that I’ve made some really good cat friends since arriving here! I live in a more quiet room where there are plenty of places for me to burrow. Even though you can almost always find me curled up in a cozy spot, I’m really affectionate and love belly scratches.
“If you’ve been looking to adopt a very sweet senior gal who deserves a peaceful, loving life, stop in and meet me today!”
Dreamer is up for adoption from Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society, located at 4832 Route 44 in West Windsor and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday, 12-4 p.m. Lucy Mackenzie is also on Facebook and Twitter and can be reached at 802-484-5829.
Gemma, adoptable from Sullivan County Humane Society
“I am 3-year-old Gemma. I was surrendered along with Catrick and our three little kittens. Our owner’s landlord said they were not allowed to have so many cats, so we had to go.
“I went into foster with my three babies, but now they are weaned, so here I am. I am shy at first, but if you are patient with me, I can be very loving.
“I am vet checked, spayed, vaccinated for rabies and distemper, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped and FIV/FeLV negative.”
Gemma is up for adoption from Sullivan County Humane Society, located at 145 Broad St. in Claremont. Please see hours on the humane society website at www.sullivancountyhumanesociety.org and Facebook. Call 603-542-3277 or email sullivanhumane@hotmail.com.
