Furry Tails: Burnt Umber & Noodle Are Waiting For Forever Homes

Are you looking to bring a pet into your home? Local animal shelters are a great place to find a furry companion. So, as part of Furry Tails, I'll be doing an ongoing feature on adoptable pets from local animal shelters once a week. If you have room in your heart and are looking to bring a lovable ball of fur into your home, maybe one of these guys is meant to be a part of your family!

Burnt Umber

Animal Friends

Burnt Umber is a sweet kitty in need of a forever home that will give him extra special care because of his diabetes. He loves people and would love to become part of your family!

Animal Friends's Pet Profile:
This handsome tabby is a part of our Mission: Adoptable Program! He was transferred from another shelter for our annual New Year's Eve Rescue. Burnt Umber is one of the sweetest, most loving cats you will ever meet! He is an absolute purr machine and rubs up on everyone he meets. The only thing holding this sweet boy back from a home is that he was diagnosed with diabetes. We have been managing his diabetes really well with twice-daily insulin shots. Burnt Umber needs a family that is comfortable with giving him his shots, as it is essential for his well-being.

Burnt Umber loves to play, but especially loves to be with people. He is vocal and will tell you how much he loves you! He is a stately and handsome cat, with a loving personality. He is a staff and volunteer favorite and so deserves a forever home of his own!

Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to give Burnt Umber a loving home!

In addition to the above Mission: Adoptable benefits, Burnt Umber's family will also receive one package of canned pate food, a one-on-one with an Animal Friends Medical Wellness employee, one supply of Prozinc insulin and a urinalysis and blood draw after adoption (Animal Friends will not analyze the results but will perform the procedure for free and will fax the findings to your veterinarian of choice).

If you can help, come to Animal Friends at 562 Camp Horne Road, Pittsburgh, Pa., 15237 or call 412-847-7002. For more information on how you can adopt any of the pets at Animal Friends, visit their website here!

Noodle is such a fun name for a dog! And Noodle is such a fun-loving dog! Still a puppy at heart, she needs a patient family that is going to give her lots of love, training and care.

Western Pa. Humane Society's Pet Profile:
As you can see by my picture, I LOVE TOYS and I am very playful. I have lots of energy to burn so I need someone who is active to keep up with me!!!! I am a very social dog that loves attention and I can be very affectionate. I know sit and I am always willing to learn new tricks. I do have some puppyish behavior, so I am Mandatory Training. My adoption comes with the training and the classes are here at the Western PA Humane Society. Because of my puppyish behavior, I have to go home with teens/adults only. I could possibly live with another dog pending a successful meet and greet.

What I can also tell you is that I have been behaviorally and medically evaluated, altered, microchipped, and am up to date on all my vaccinations. The staff is getting me all ready to go home with someone wonderful… maybe you?
