ADOPTION CENTER
Inside Pet Supplies Pius at Alps Shopping Center * 706.3S3.2287
The Humane Society’s Adoption Center is extraordinarily full right now with about 30 cats and kittens
available! Please consider visiting and adopting very soon! Once space is available, the Adoption Center
will also house the now homeless 13 cats from the estate of Sherry and Lothar Schweder of Lexington.
These cats were lovingly nurtured, all spayed and neutered, with current vaccination records, and some
of them are just magnificently huge and beautiful. Their names are known thanks to their records. Eleven
of the cats are coming around nicely after the upset of the disassembling of their homelife and the loss
of their owners. All oT them get along with other cats and dogs (except for Sophie).
