Shelter Animal of the Week

Posted

It’s not that the Cranston Animal Shelter collects one eyed cats… it just so happens that they have two right now! Andi is one of them. He was found astray with two other cats and taken to the Cranston Animal Shelter. When taken out of his cage, he follows you around the cat room, trying to get your attention by rubbing against your legs. He could sit with you forever if you scratch his head; it’s his sweet spot.

Please be aware that if you wish to adopt Andi his fur will need proper care such as regular brushings. Because it is so long, brushing it periodically will prevent unwanted mats, which are very uncomfortable for felines, and will keep him looking clean. This sweet tempered two-year-old cat is looking for a life long companion.

The adoption fee for Andi is $95. This fee must be paid with a check or money order and includes all initial vaccinations, heartworm testing, and spaying/neutering. To insure we adopt all of our residents into responsible homes, we require adopters to provide proof of home ownership or a notarized letter of permission from their landlord. If you are hoping to adopt an animal but think that Andi may not be the right fit for your home, please look for “Animal of the Week” article featured next week or pick up a copy of the PawPrint Press, our quarterly newsletter for the Cranston Animal Shelter featuring the animals available for adoption. We distribute it at local businesses and libraries in Cranston as well as at the shelter itself. You could also view the digital version of the PawPrint Press, by visiting the Cranston Police Department’s Facebook page or web page at www.cranstonpoliceri.com and clicking on the Animal Shelter and PawPrint Press tab. Also, please do not hesitate to visit or call the Cranston Animal Shelter to see if Andi is still available or if you have a question about any of our other animals. Please know that before an animal can be taken from his/her kennel, you must fill out our adoption application. These applications are completely non-binding and allow us to learn more about our potential adopters as well as shielding our residents from people who use the shelter as a petting zoo. The staff at the Cranston Animal Shelter is very dedicated to matching all of our animals to the right homes.

The Shelter is located on 920 Phenix Ave. and can be reached at 401-464-8700. It is open from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday.
