Help out a “Less Adoptable Pet” from Angel’s Wish


Black cats. FIV+ cats. Senior pets. Special needs animals. What do all these have in common? Unfortunately, these animals are often overlooked when it comes to finding their forever homes. That’s why the next two weekends, Angel’s Wish will be recognizing Petfinder’s “Adopt-A-Less-Adoptable-Pet Week.” From September 17th through the 25th, we will try to find these unusual (or, in some cases, too common) animals their forever homes. Below are some of the animals at Angel’s Wish who need your love:

Dolce 
Dolce came to Angel’s Wish in rough shape, but she doesn’t let that affect her! A loving and beautiful kitten, Dolce is playful and friendly, and likes to play with her foster parents — especially in the covers. She loves affection and is looking for a forever home where she can give all the love she has.


Nick 
Looking for a cat wants to spend time with you? Nick is an affectionate cat who likes to be held, enjoys your lap and lives to please. He is a cat who thinks the sun rises and sets because of you. Nick is about 8 years and has tested positive for FIV. He is a lover and not a fighter, and can live harmoniously in any household with other respectful pets.

Bear 
Bear is a 4 year old, short hair black cat with a lot of love! He likes to be pet and will even sit on the couch and watch TV with you. Bear is sensitive to loud noises and can be shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, he is loving as can be. He likes to be the king of his castle, so he would prefer to be the only cat in your family.

And to meet some of these loving animals, stop in at one of our adoption events held every Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and every Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the center in Verona. You can also visit our East side adoption center at Pet Smart East on Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
