Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter has a number of animals that are looking for their forever home.
The shelter, which was established in 1896, helps animals that are unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned - as well as reuniting lost animals with their owners and finding loving new homes for those who are no longer wanted.
Here are 21 cute animals who are in need of a home - you can find out more at: https://www.dogandcatshelter.com/.
Take a look and see if you can open your heart and home to a new four-legged friend!
13. Blueberry (Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross)
Blueberry is a very scared, nervous and timid young lady, in fact, she is one of the most shut down dogs that has walked through the shelter's doors. From the moment she arrived, she just wanted to hide away and not even be looked at; heart-breaking to witness. Blueberry has come a long way during her time in the shelter, but still has a long way to go. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
14. Hemingway
Hemingway hasn’t been in care for long so shelter staff are still getting to know him but he has a very strong dislike for other cats which is making it harder for them to get to know his true personality. He arrived in care as a stray, so they don’t know his history. Hemingway is a confident lad, he’s nice to people initially but he gets frustrated by the other cats in the cattery and he sometimes misdirects his frustration towards staff. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
15. Hunter (Whippet Cross)
Hunter is a beautiful boy and a sensitive soul with a lot of big feelings. He has a very sweet personality and loves a cuddle with his human friends. Hunter has struggled in the shelter environment and can get very stressed in his kennel. Once out and about on a walk he is a different dog entirely. He walks well and takes in his surroundings without any drama. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
16. Yeti (American Bulldog)
Yeti is a delightful, playful and goofy lad always on the look out for some fun and attention! Yeti arrived into care as a stray and was in quite a state bless his heart. His skin was in a terrible condition and his ears bled they were so bad; he must have been in so much pain. Despite being a chunky boy, Yeti still seems to believe he is a lapdog and will happily jump on you knee for a cuddle! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
