LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – A new group of jewel-eyed tabbies and torbies are awaiting adoption at Lake County Animal Care and Control this week.
The cats range in age from 8 weeks to 2 years. Almost all of them have been altered in preparation for going to new homes.
Cats that are adopted from Lake County Animal Care and Control are either neutered or spayed and 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.
