Adopt These Pets: Bayou, Liam & Seamus

With our free press under threat and federal funding for public media gone, your support matters more than ever. Help keep the LAist newsroom strong, become a monthly member or increase your support today. 

Bayou is a Catahoula/Pittie mix with a unique look and personality. With her one eye and amazing coloring, she is definitely a people magnet. And she works it -she loves people big and small, old and young! Bayou is energetic and loves her walks. At home, she is on the couch waiting for some snuggles and a treat.

Bayou is about 2 years old and 50 pounds. She gets along with male dogs her size, but would do best as an only child. She must live in a cat-free household. To adopt Bayou, contact the Dawg Squad, a 501(c)3 rescue organization based in West Los Angeles.

Liam was rescued from a feral colony near the 170 freeway in North Hollywood. He is a dear, sweet boy who loves receiving attention from his foster mom. He also has a grand time playing with his brother, Seamus. Liam has beautiful long fur which requires daily brushing. Liam will coming running when he sees you with his brush and sit on your lap as you brush him; he loves it! Liam is about 3 years old, neutered, inoculated, felv/fiv negative, wormed,flea treated, and micro-chipped.

If you're looking to adopt a pair, Liam and Seamus would love to have a forever home together. To learn more, contact Forgotten Animals of Los Angeles (FALA).

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.

But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.

We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.

Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
