* * *Every Saturday, LAist will feature an adoptable cat and dog from a different local shelter or accredited 501c3 rescue organization. Take a look at these furry bundles and consider giving them a home, or forward their faces to friends who may be interested. * * *

This week’s adoptable pets are from the Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA, an independent, donor-supported, non-profit agency that provides care for abandoned and homeless animals. PHS welcomes and cares for all animals in its service area regardless of age, medical condition, breed or any other criteria.


Pappas
Pappas (A285836), a three-year-old Chihuahua mix is too cute for words! He has a happy personality, is very active, and loves people. He also gets along with the other little dogs in his kennel. Pappas loves to cuddle and play. He needs a home where he will receive plenty of attention. The regular dog adoption fee is $120, which includes medical care prior to adoption, spaying or neutering, vaccinations, and a follow-up visit with a participating vet.


Doubles
Doubles (A286674), a lovely, year old, tortoise shell cat is in need of a loving home. She is very outgoing and loves people but may prefer to be the only cat in the household. She would be a great companion for someone looking for a playful and fun kitty. Come visit her today! The regular cat adoption fee is $70 which includes the spay or neuter surgery, microchip, vaccinations, and a free follow-up health check at a participating vet.Please call 626-792-7151 and ask for Pappas (A285836) or Doubles (A286674) or come to the Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA, 361 S.

One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our nonprofit newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor. Our only loyalty is to our readers and listeners and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen Southern California’s communities.
