Purrfect Pals: Four waiting cats

By Elizabeth Larson | Feb. 10, 2014

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – This week four cats are ready and waiting for new homes at Lake County Animal Care and Control.

The cats – two males and two females – are all about 9 months old, and include two Siamese mixes, a calico and a feline with black and white markings.

In addition to spaying or neutering, cats that are adopted from Lake County Animal Care and Control are 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”).
