LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – There are many kittens and cats needing new homes at Lake County Animal Care and Control.
Kitten season is continuing, and homes which will ensure the little felines are cared for and loved are eagerly sought.
In addition, there are some very friendly adult cats that need a new chance at a home of their own.
Cats that are adopted from Lake County Animal Care and Control are either neutered or spayed and microchipped before being released to their new owner. License fees do not apply to residents of the cities of Lakeport or Clearlake.
If you're looking for a new companion, visit the shelter. There are many great pets there, hoping you'll choose them.
The following cats at the Lake County Animal Care and Control shelter have been cleared for adoption (other cats pictured on the animal control Web site that are not listed here are still “on hold”).
