Here are some pets currently available for adoption in the Morris County area:

| Here’s Sonny from Eleventh Hour Rescue. Sonny has a very sunny disposition. This 3-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix is shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he’s all play, play, play. He always has that happy smile on his face and is a very silly and goofy dog during playtime. Tennis balls are his favorite distraction and during play he’ll throw himself completely into the action. Undeterred by his own antics, he is a constant source of entertainment to all those who watch his self-induced game of fetch.

| Mindy is an adorable terrier/poodle mix pup. She has a lot of energy and she never walks anywhere, she springs! Mindy is about 12 weeks old and is about 5 to 7 pounds. She loves being carried around and she loves falling asleep on your lap. Mindy had a bad start in life. She was dropped off the shelter with a ear and eye infection. Thankfully, the nice people at the shelter took her to the vet and she lived in a foster home until she was all better. In her foster home, she played with other dogs and cats. Furever Home Dog Rescue heard about her and thought she was absolutely adorable. So, we brought Mindy to NJ to live in a foster home until she finds her forever home. This little girl is cute as a button! And, she will shower you with puppy kisses! If you have room in your heart and your home for her, e-mail FureverHomeRescue@att.net and request an adoption application. |

| Uno is as close to perfect as you can get for a puppy. It is hard to believe that he almost lost his life at such a young age. He was brought into an animal control in Tennessee after being attacked by a larger dog. He had such serious injuries that his one eye had popped out. The staff was going to euthanize him, but volunteers stepped in and offered to save him. His wounds were taken care of, his eye was removed, and he was neutered before he went into a foster home in Tennessee prior to coming to us at Eleventh Hour Rescue. Uno is now in New Jersey and available for adoption. He loves to play with his foster family’s other dogs, is good with cats, and loves all people that he meets. You would never even know that he is missing an eye and that he has been through so much already! Thanks to Eleventh Hour Rescue, he has another chance at a long and happy life after being on death row. He is looking for a forever home that will appreciate his goofy and loving personality.

| Meet Pinky from Eleventh Hour Rescue. Pinky is a large, lovely, female cat with beautiful tan and gray markings. She is approximately 9-10 years old. The lady that Pinky lived with her whole life is elderly and was moving and she could not take Pinky with her. Poor Pinky had nowhere to go! She was scheduled to be euthanized, but with just 2 hours to spare, Eleventh Hour Rescue stepped in and saved her life. Pinky is a sweet and affectionate cat. She purrs when you give her love and attention. She would prefer to be the only cat in the household. She is declawed, spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations. Won’t you find room in your heart and your home for Pinky?
