Regional Animal Shelter
Pets of the Week
“Wednesday” & “Zoinks” (long hair) are adorable female kittens that are about 10 weeks old. They were surrendered to the Shelter because their owner could no longer care for them. They are sweet girls that get along fine with other cats and would adjust fine to living with dogs or children.
Throughout the month of October, RAS will waive the $20 adoption fee and Indian Rivers Humane Society will pay 1/2 the spay/neuter fee for dogs and cats adopted! Download a flyer for more information.
