Name: Cooper
Gender & Breed: Female Domestic Shorthair
Age: 2 years old

Name: Seamus
Gender & Breed: Male Pitbull mix
Age: 1 year old
Organization: Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, Menands
About: Are you in the market for a Good Boy? Then look no further. Seamus is a gentle soul who can be a bit nervous at first but, when given some super tasty treats, a bit of love and patience, he is sure to blossom and show you his true colors. He loves food, so much so that he will get pushy for it.
Because Seamus is still working on my confidence, he will need a family that will give me a quiet home and show him with positive reinforcement that the world isn’t so scary. Additionally, he would do best in a home with older kids.
Adoption Details: Seamus is up for adoption at the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, open Monday through Saturday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Adoption fees and requirements can be found on the shelter’s website at mohawkhumane.org.

Age: 3 years old
Organization: Animal Protective Foundation, Glenville
About: Mella is just a ball of fun. He makes a lot of cute piggy noises and has lived with other guinea pigs before.
Adoption Details: Mella is up for adoption at the Animal Protective Foundation in Schenectady, open Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 4:30 p.m. Adoption fees, process requirements and more can be found on the APF website at animalprotective.org.

Name: Flower
Gender & Breed: Female Domestic Shorthair
Age: 8 months old
Organization: Montgomery County SPCA, Amsterdam
About: Flower, along with her sister Nugget, was surrendered to the Montgomery County SPCA in late June when their owner could no longer care for them. They are shy and quiet girls who warm up when given some attention. They would be happiest to be able to share their lives together in a new forever home, one that is calm and quiet so that they can learn to feel safe and loved. They’ll be a perfect addition to a loving family.
Adoption Details: Flower can be found at the Montgomery County SPCA, open Wednesdays through Sundays from noon to 4 p.m. Appointments for adoptions, redemptions and surrenders are encouraged by calling (518) 842-8050. For more information, visit mc-spca.org or Facebook, or write [email protected].

Name: Cheeto
Gender & Breed: Male Domestic Shorthair
Age: 6 years old
Organization: Animal Protective Foundation, Glenville
About: Cheeto is a nice, introverted boy who is looking for a quiet home to settle in. He is a bit on the larger side so he would love someone who can support him on his weight loss journey. Other than that, he is just a sweet guy looking for some love!
Adoption Details: Cheeto is up for adoption at the Animal Protective Foundation in Schenectady, open Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 4:30 p.m. Adoption fees, process requirements and more can be found on the APF website at animalprotective.org.

Name: Siren
Gender & Breed: Female Domestic Shorthair
Age: 3 years old
Organization: Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, Menands
About: Just like her name suggests, Siren likes to sing the song of her mermaid people, the siren song. She is nervous at first, but warms up with patience, love and some treats. She removes herself from situations she is uncomfortable in and she will let you know when she is done.
Siren is most likely not a “starter cat,” and would benefit from going home with someone who understands cat behavior and can pick up on the signs cats give off when they are in their feelings.
Adoption Details: Siren is up for adoption at the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, open Monday through Saturday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Adoption fees and requirements can be found on the shelter’s website at mohawkhumane.org.
