Once Part of a Family, These Guys are Now Looking for New Homes

Each week, Wyandotte Patch features adoptable pets from both  and WAG Animal Rescue.

Jill Knight Skoviak, a volunteer at the , introduces us to Ernie the cat and Baby and Petey the dogs:

Ernie was given up by his family when they decided they had too many pets. He is 16 years old and is front paw declawed. Don't let his age deter you, though. Ernie doesn't look a day over 8. He is a big boy with a lot of love to give. He gets along with other cats and dogs. Ernie is neutered and current on vaccinations.

Baby and Petey were given up when their owner died and the family could no longer care for them. Petey has a minor skin infection that is being treated with antibiotics, but they both appear to be in good health. We would love for them to stay together. They are both neutered, current on vaccinations and heartworm tested.

The  is located at 1170 Grove St. Adoptions are done 5:30-7:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday and Friday, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Sunday. An entire list, including photographs and descriptions, of all the pound's adoptable animals can be found on its website. The pound also can be contacted through email.

WAG Animal Rescue had no animals to submit this week.
