Welcome to the 31st edition of Paw Prints, a monthly column for animal lovers dedicated to helping shelter pets find their furever home.

Meet Ruffles

This no frills, frilly girl is Ruffles, a nine year old Havanese mix up for adoption at Little Shelter in Huntington. Finally finding herself on solid footing, she’s slowly learning to trust in her future and the possibility of a real home. Starting to accept all the well-deserved attention coming her way, she can often be seen settled into someone’s lap, enjoying pets and idle conversation. Full of feminism and flair, she’s poised to become the most delightful companion and loyal friend, given the opportunity of time and patience. Stop by to meet Ruffles and see the possibilities! 631-368-8770, ext. 21

Meet Russet

The approximate weight of a sack of potatoes, meet Russet, an eleven year old Havanese mi at Little Shelter in Huntington. While this Passage to Freedom traveler is gaining confidence every day, he’s still a bit reserved meeting new friends and is hoping to find a quiet, experienced home where he can settle in and feel secure. The Havanese are known to be intelligent and adaptable, so before you know it, Russet will be participating in all your fun family activities.

If you think this “spud” could be for you, stop by to meet Russet today!

*Fun fact: Charles Dickens owned a Havanese named Tim, who was beloved by his seven children.* 631-368-8770, ext. 21

Meet Tuna and Caesar

These adorable kittens were dumped in a parking lot on a hot day in a closed box. Luckily they were brought to the Smithtown Animal Shelter and are available for adoption.

Estimated to be approximately 6 months old, Caesar is the whole package: sweet, funny, outgoing and playful.

Approximately 9 months old, Tuna is a very affectionate, playful and outgoing little lady. She was a very young mom and was abandoned with her baby and housemate when she was pregnant again! She deserves to have a home that will adore her and pamper her for life. Tuna is FIV positive. FIV+ cats can live long and happy lives with other cats without issue. Tuna would love to be adopted with Caesar, but may go individually for the right home. 631-360-7575

Meet Daisy Mae

Patiently waiting at the Brookhaven Animal Shelter, Daisy Mae is a charming 4-year-old mixed breed looking for her forever home. Despite being returned by her previous owner, Daisy Mae is bursting with affection and eager to find a family to call her own.

If there’s one thing Daisy Mae adores, it’s her toys! She’s absolutely smitten with stuffed toys, and there’s no better sight than watching her playfully chase after them or carry them during her walks!

Daisy Mae is a smart girl who knows her basic commands like “sit.” While she might have a short attention span, she’s eager to learn and please her humans. Plus, she’s already housebroken and crate trained, making her transition into your home a breeze.

Daisy Mae prefers to be the center of attention and would thrive as the only pet in the household. She’s not a fan of other dogs, so she’s looking for a home where she can be the queen of her castle with a fenced yard of her own. She would do best in a home with older children aged 16 and up. She loves to romp around and have fun, making her the perfect companion for active teens and adults alike. 631-451-695
