Pasco — Smith

Smith is a 10-year-old, mixed breed, male dog. He’s an active boy and is happiest when he’s carrying around his toys. He’s a great family dog because he’ll track you down to play with him. He likes to play fetch, go for long walks and snuggle with his humans. For more information, contact the SPCA Suncoast at 727-849-1048.

Pinellas — Cici

Cici is a 2-year-old, female, domestic short haired cat. She’s a miracle cat. Diagnosed with Feline infectious peritonitis, she underwent experimental treatment and recovered. She has gained all her weight back and is ready for a forever family. She loves snuggling on your chest as you fall asleep and waking you with headbutts at breakfast time. She gets along well with dogs and other cats. For more information, call Friends of Strays at 727-522-6566.

Hernando — Zoey

Zoey is a 10-month-old, bluemerle and white female Catahoula mix. She is very sweet, but active because she’s still a puppy. She needs lots of exercise and would benefit from a fenced yard for playtime. Shelter volunteers are currently working on basic commands and leash training. For more information, contact Hernando County Animal Services at 352-796-5062.

Zoey is a very active and affectionate puppy.
