Purrfect Pals: Cats and new kittens

By Elizabeth Larson | May 23, 2016

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Lake County Animal Care and Control has adult cats and a group of new kittens available for adoption this week.

The kittens include several tiny tuxedos in various coat types, while the adults include tabbies in orange and gray, a calico and two black cats.

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.

In addition to the animals featured here, all adoptable animals in Lake County can be seen here: http://bit.ly/Z6xHMb .
