Anastasia
Anastasia is just as beautiful and regal as her name suggests. Very gentle and well-mannered, she greets everyone with a friendly smile and a wag of the tail. She’s proven herself to be quite the lady around children and adults alike, although she’d prefer not to share her humans with other animals. If she were to accept another dog into her life, it would need to be a larger, very calm male who would allow her to occupy the throne. Anastasia is a 3-year-old Pit mix with a white coat accented with large patches of brown, including over her right eye and a quarter-sized spot on her left cheek, reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe’s famous beauty mark. She loves toys and is hoping for a home with a large yard where she can race around like a graceful greyhound.
Watson
Are you seeking a feline companion with whom you can discuss your day and express your thoughts without distracting interruptions and questions? If so, Watson is your man. This handsome 8-month-old orange and white cat is sweet, affectionate, and extremely friendly without being intrusive. He will happily climb into your lap and lean into your chest for comfort and contact, then wander off for a bit before coming back to rub his head on your hand or chin. All the while he will continue to listen quietly to all you have to say, responding with a gentle purr and deep gaze. He has a very mellow and kind nature, and given the opportunity, he will be more than content to be the Watson to your Sherlock.
The adoption fees are free for both featured pets through May 26, 2018. To see these and other available dogs and cats for adoption, visit the Greenwood County Animal Shelter at 235 Wilbanks Circle, Monday through Saturday, 11a to 4:30p.
