Pet of the Week: loyal cat and sweet dog ready for adoption

Meet Soldier!

Soldier has been a warrior in his young life, fighting on the front lines and keeping his territory safe. Now Soldier is ready to hang up his medals and retire to a comfy couch and civilian life. This handsome five-year-old gray and white boy became an instant shelter favorite with his loving demeanor and resiliency. Soldier was brought in with a bite or abrasion on his front paw, deep enough to have caused a positive FIV reaction, which comes from another cat. FIV cats can live normal, happy lives with vet care if they develop sniffles. It`s obvious Soldier was a beloved family member at one time because he adores people, especially when they give him head scritches. His purrs will delight you and this brave Soldier`s loyalty will thrill you.

She has an outgoing fun personality and LOVES to snuggle too. Honey-cake can often be found cozy on a blanket, curled up with a soft plushy toy.
