Special Pets Who Need Special People

All the animals at Jasper County Animal Rescue League and Humane Society are in need of a home,

but some require a little extra loving care. These animals are referred to as “ Special Needs”.

Commonly it will be an older pet. Possibly a cat who prefers a quiet home without other animals

and children. Perhaps a dog, that due to its age has had some teeth removed, and needs to eat

soft food. Many think there is disadvantages to adopting an older pet, but they forget there is

many great advantages to loving and caring for the senior animal ! These cats and dogs have

lived the majority of their lives in a home environment with a family. Dogs are most generally

housebroke, and the cats enjoy a lap to lay upon.

MOST IMPORTANTLY DON’T FORGET, AGE IS NOT A DISEASE !
