JACKSON, MI — The Jackson County Animal Shelter, 3770 Spring Arbor Road, has many pets available for adoption.
Here are two of them.
Jet is a 4-year-old Labrador Retriever mix who came in as a stray. Jet’s most striking feature are his beautiful light blue eyes.
He is a happy boy who has lots of energy. He wants to play and join you on walks. Jet just loves children, he gets excited to see them and will give out lots of lick kisses.
Pasta is a 2-year-old brown tabby cat who came in as a pregnant stray. Pasta has had her kittens and they are now grown.
She is a super mellow, sweet girl. Pasta loves attention and will cuddle up to be petted. She gets along well with the other cats where she is currently housed.
Dog adoptions require an application, online. A meet-and-greet with a dog also is mandatory. A cat room walk-through is available to test reaction. The dog adoption fee is $150 for medium and large dogs and $250 for puppies and small dogs, which includes vaccinations, microchip and sterilization.
Cat adoption fees are $60 for one cat, $80 for two, which includes applicable tests, vaccinations and spay/neutering.
