Pets of the Week: Tabby Cat, Australian Cattle Dog Mix Need Homes

A domestic tabby cat and an Australian cattle dog mix are awaiting their forever homes at Barrow County Animal Control. Read the descriptions to see if one of these pets is right for your family.

• A black, white and tan, male domestic medium-hair cat, approximately 6 months old. He weighs in at four pounds. He loves attention. He was found running at large, so animal control has no background information on him. Make sure you have a lint roller, he sheds a lot. He is good with kids and other animals.
• A black, white and tan, male Australian cattle dog mix, about 9 to 12 months old. He's slightly shy, but will adapt to any situation. He is good on a leash.  He was found running loose, so animal control has no background information on him.

The adoption fee for all cats and dogs is $100. The fee includes spay or neuter, a physical exam, a fecal exam, de-worming, a rabies vaccine, a distemper/parvo vaccine and micro-chipping.

For more information on these or other pets, call the shelter at 770-307-3012. Shelter hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.
