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!
5. Bear (Caucasian Shepherd)
Bear is a fabulous lad to spend time with, he is cheeky and fun and a big ball of silliness. Bear can be boisterous and a little over the top at times. He is easily over-aroused and sometimes jumps up in his eagerness for attention! Bear loves his people and gets very excited to greet them which sometimes means pulling to get there faster. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
6. Apollo (Bulldog)
Apollo is a fabulous lad and a typical Bulldog who simply oozes personality and character! Apollo is a very friendly chap who can sometimes be a little over familiar. There is no such thing as as stranger to this boy and he greets everyone with the same boisterous enthusiasm and expectations of immediate belly rubs. He loves making friends and is happy to enjoy cuddles and fuss from everyone he meets! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
7. Jemima (Cockerpoo)
Jemima is a sweet and delightful young girl whose favourite thing in the world is cuddles with her human friends! Jemima enjoys being out and about on walks and loves putting her nose to work having a good sniff of her surroundings. Jemima can be anxious in her kennel but relaxes once outside. We feel Jemima would benefit from a home who are around a lot of the time and are confident in helping her through any worries she may have. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
8. Alan
Alan is a lovely lad who has really let his guard down since first arriving here at the shelter. When he first arrived, he was quite an unhappy boy and would ask for space from staff. However, it was soon discovered that he had an abscess on the side of his face, that would’ve been causing him a lot of pain and discomfort. Since having the abscess treated and being moved to a quieter area of the cattery, away from other cats, Alan has become a much happier boy and is now showing staff his true, sweet character! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
