Ms. Black is about 6 years old and gets along great with other cats. She was found as a strey and although many attempts were made to find her home, she was now homeless. Her self-confidence is a little low as she keeps getting overlooked by potential families. Ms. Black doesn't think she stands a chance at a good home with all these cute little fluffy kittens running around. She does have either an old injury to her ear or it may have been clipped when her previous owner had her spayed. She does hope that you will not hold that against her. Ms. Black enjoys naps in the sunshine and would make a great outside kitty. Ms. Black's adoption fee is $75 which includes her spay, vaccinations including rabies are up to date, and you will recieve a full vet exam with our Veterinarian.

Adopting a friend
Adopting a friend for life is easy at the Wiregrass Humane Society. Once you have selected a pet for adoption you will fill out a short adoption application and meet with one of our adoption counselors and if approved we will go over our adoption contract and you go home with your new friend. Our adoption fee ranges from $90-$30 for both dogs and cats. This adoption fee covers the cost of spay/neuter surgery and the pet will be up-to-date on its shots, worming, rabies vaccination (if old enough to receive). All pets are required to be spayed or neutered before leaving our shelter so if you select a pet that has not had surgery we will schedule this procedure and take the pet in for surgery. You will have the option of picking up your pet at the veterinarian's office or at our shelter. We do not make any exceptions to this policy.
