Patch Pets: Record Number of Cats Looking for New Homes

If you’ve ever thought about getting a cat or kitten, or adding to your existing pet family, now is the time.

The had a record setting August by taking in 1,249 animals—894 of them or kittens. These are records we don’t like to set. What we would like to see is a record number of our animals finding their forever homes and that can only happen if nice people open their homes and hearts.

There is no adoption fee for cats over six months of age and kittens are two for $50. All cats have been tested for FELV/FIV, are already spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and have received flea and worm treatments. You also get a bag of food and half off the first vet visit.

So check out the fabulous cats on our website at www.animalrescue.org or come to the Animal Rescue League at 6620 Hamilton Ave., in East Liberty, 412-661-6452. 

The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and Saturday through Monday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Cats can also be adopted through the Petco stores at the Waterfront in Homestead and the Waterworks in Fox Chapel.
