Orphaned Since:  June 2017

Buster is a friendly little kitty who loves to run and play.  He absolutely loves people and shows his affection by purring when you pet him.  He’s the best of both worlds- high energy and a low-key lap kitten.  He does have “overactive tears” so surgery or other treatment may be needed.  But don’t let that deter you from taking this darling home.  He’ll show you so much love that he will be totally worth it!  Come by SPCA Florida to meet Buster for yourself.

Gender:  Male
Age:  7 years old
Weight: 13 pounds
Species: Cat
Breed: Domestic Short Hair/Mix – Gray/Black
Orphaned Since: May 2017

Needles is a very alert, older cat who prefers to sit still and be rubbed under the ears.  With his quiet demeanor, he would be a great companion for a mature adult.  Your stress will melt away loving on this calm cat!  He needs a home with no dogs.  Stop in SPCA Florida for a visit and see what makes Needles so special.

Gender: Female
Age:  4 years old
Species:  Dog
Breed:  Mastiff/Mix- Red
Weight:  55 pounds
Orphaned Since:  July 2017
Adoption Fee: $75

 
Just as her name implies, Fireball is a ball of fire.  She’s super energetic and easily excited, so she needs someone who can keep up!  She does not like other animals so she must be the only pet in your home.  She will adore you for rubbing her belly and giving her treats.  And she’ll sit when you tell her to.  Come by SPCA Florida to meet Fireball and see if you’re a match!
 
 
Name: Lily
Gender: Female
Age:  2 years old
Species:  Dog
Breed:  Bulldog Mix- Black/White
Weight:  43 pounds
Orphaned Since: May 2017
Adoption Fee: $25

 
Lily is a people and kid friendly dog.  If you love long walks along nature trails, she’s your ideal companion for it!  She’s independent, but she also craves attention.  She’s curious and motivated to learn if you enjoy teaching new tricks.  Lily is motivated by tasty treats to follow your commands.  She’s great with kids, but no other dogs or cats can be in the home with her.  Come out to the SPCA Florida and show Lily some attention.
