These local animals are looking for a new family:

Oreo is a 4-year-old pup looking for a new home. He was turned in 9 months ago when his owner could no longer keep him. Oreo loves to play; he’s just a big 75-pound puppy! He deserves to have his own family to play with. Oreo tested well with other dogs and cats here. We have not seen him around kids. He is a big, strong dog and will need someone who can handle him. Oreo is neutered, current on vaccines, and microchipped. His adoption is $120. Apply online to adopt: https://www.anitas-sshs.org/adopt/apply/Dog. Anita’s Stevens-Swan Humane Society, 5664 Horatio St., Utica, 315-738-4357, www.anitas-sshs.org.

Mya is an adorable black and white kitten who is around 3 months old. She is so very sweet, and would be a good companion to another cat. She has lived with other cats before, so she would be alright in a multi-cat household. With a slow introduction of course, as in the beginning she is not too sure of what to think. Mya loves to lay in cat beds, and also to play around with lots of toys! She would appreciate getting adopted before she is surrounded with bunches of kittens in the kitten room. If you’re looking for a younger cat, don’t pass her by! Also, kitten season is upon us so Kitten Pate wet food donations are greatly appreciated. To visit Mya, stop by the Humane Society of Rome, 6247 Lamphear Road, call 315-336-7070 or go to www.humanesocietyrome.com.
