(WMC-TV) – Have you thought this season about opening up your heart and your home to a sweet animal in need?
This year, we introduce to you "The 12 Strays of Christmas".
Action News 5 is partnering with the Humane Society of Memphis & Shelby County to share with you 12 animals in need of homes this holiday season. We will introduce you to a new pet each day through December 22. And each pet featured in the "12 Strays of Christmas" comes with a very special adoption fee of just $12.
Meet Shady
Shady is a white and gray five-year-old female cat.
She came to the Humane Society in October as part of a large hoarding case.
She loves other cats and lives with several. Because of her previous environment she can be timid around new things, but all she needs is a little patience and love to come out of her shell.
If you are interested in making Raven the newest member of your family, contact the Humane Society of Memphis & Shelby County at 901-937-3900.
The $12 adoption fee for Shady includes the following:
- Spay/neuter surgery
- Rabies vaccination
- Age appropriate vaccines
- De-worming treatments
- Heartworm testing (dogs only)
- FIV/Leukemia testing (cats only)
- Microchip for permanent identification
- Humane Society ID tag
- Follow up calls with our Adoption Counselors to make sure your new pet is adjusting well
- A goodie bag with coupons and some toys
