Our Fursday Pet of the Week is Shila from Second Chance Pet Adoptions!
Shila, a quiet middle-aged hound, is looking for a forever home, preferably with another dog and a fenced-in yard. She’s an independent gal who likes to chew on bones and play with toys, but at the end of the day, she also likes to snuggle up with her humans for the night. As a hound, she’s got a good sniffer on her, so she also enjoys long walks with lots of smells to be had; she’s honestly obsessed with being outside. Shila is both silly and awkward and she’ll keep you entertained for years to come. Her adoption fee has been reduced, as she will also need a hot wire fence, which Second Chance will help pay for and install for her adopter. You can learn more about Shila and set up a meeting with her by going over to www.SecondChanceNC.org and submitting an adoption application today!
Beatrice, a 5-year-old black and white pit mix. We rescued Beatrice from a county shelter after being absolutely dazzled by her pearly whites! She’s such a happy girl, whether she’s sitting quietly at your feet while you work from home or riding in the car on her way to a long hike. Beatrice has exactly one issue that’s kept her from being adopted, which is that she is 100% the boss when it comes to other animals, so she needs a home with no other pets and an owner who will keep her safely away from any other cats or dogs. With humans, though? Beatrice is just remarkable—silly, snuggly, and smiley. Visit Beatrice at Second Chance Pet Adoptions, or learn more about her and apply to adopt at www.SecondChanceNC.org. You can also catch her on Instagram—her username is @AdoptPrettyBeatrice!
Are you looking for that one special dog that will cuddle with your family or play a game of frisbee in the backyard? A dog that is house trained and has great manners in your home? Well, look no further! Libby is a volunteer favorite! When a volunteer took her home for a day, the volunteer’s entire household was very impressed and noticed that she has a playful and friendly demeanor, but she’s also pretty shy and quiet, too.
Libby already knows sit, come, stay, and down. She’ll do best as an only pet or in a home with no cats.
Libby has heartworms, but it’s treatable and not contagious. To help with the medical cost, a $750 sponsorship for treatment is provided by Friends of Wake County Animal Center ([email protected]). Friends of Wake County Animal Center can walk you through the process of treatment and help you find a vet.
Libby is ready to go home today – she is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and is already spayed. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.

Merken is everything you could ever want in a cat! He’s a staff favorite at the SPCA. This 4-year-old guy is a huge snuggle bug who loves curling up on your lap or putting his paws up on you to ask for some attention. He likes to spend his days hanging out with people, lounging in cozy beds, or chirping all of his thoughts at you. He’s very tolerant of being picked up and handled, so he’d probably be great with children! Merken has FeLV, which is communicable to other cats, so he’d do best in a home where he can be the only cat (or live with other FeLV+ cats). But frankly, Merken is all the cat you’ll ever need! Merken is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. Plus — his adoption fee is waived! Learn more about adopting this handsome snuggle bug by going to spcawake.org or visiting the SPCA Wake Pet Adoption Center in Raleigh.
“Good looking, check; affectionate check; sweet, double check! I’m a darling and good boy who’s a bit stressed here at the shelter. I’m sure to settle well in my new home. I’m a bit unsure meeting new friends, please go slow with me. I’d love a home where I can gain confidence, have gentle affection, and lots of love! I’m so special that I’ve been crowned Pet of the Week! Won’t you come and see me today?”
Our Fursday Pet of the Week is Rayo from Animal Protection Society of Durham!

Our Fursday Pet of the Week is Elicia from SPCA of Wake County!
This happy little wiggle-butt is 9-month-old Elicia! Elicia is 32 lbs. and may grow to be around 40-50 lbs. Elicia is a lovable, snuggly, and playful puppy that was rescued by SPCA Wake after being found abandoned. But she doesn’t let it get her down — she is just excited to be here and to meet and greet everyone she can! Elicia knows a few tricks like “sit” and “lie down”. She’s working on finishing up her housetraining so she can be a great inside dog for her new family. Luckily, she’s very food-motivated, so she’s an eager student to learn as much as she can! Since she’s still basically a puppy, Elicia would do best with a family who can spend plenty of time with her to play, practice training, and help her use her energy in positive ways. She should have a home without cats, though (they’re a little too interesting to her). For more information on adopting Elicia, please visit spcawake.org.

Our Fursday Pet of the Week is Katydid from Wake County Animal Center!
Awesome dog alert!! Katydid is a four-year-old American Staffy mix. She loves hugs and cuddles and is a volunteer favorite. Her previous owner had great things to say about her – she’s crate training, potty trained, and is an all-around good girl. She does currently weight roughly 95lbs and should weight about 50-55lbs at her ideal weight. Katydid will need a home that can help her lose the weight appropriately – not too fast and without a ton of strenuous exercise. Slowly and will shorter walks and exercises will be best. Right now, she can get fatigued quickly and could get grumpy with less respectful dogs and humans. She is already spayed, is up-to-date on vaccines, and ready to go home today.
Our Fursday Pet of the Week is Nesquik from Second Chance Pet Adoptions!

He does need to go to a dog free home. He MUST have another cat in the home. If there are no other cats he MUST have a home with children to keep him busy. If you think this adorable little boy is a good fit for your family come meet him today!

Nope that’s not a wolf — that’s a Chloe! This heart-meltingly sweet 3-year-old girl has been waiting for a home at SPCA Wake since June of 2021. She’s been patiently waiting to find her future family, and all the staff and volunteers at SPCA Wake has been rooting for her!

She’s looking for someone who’d be willing to take a special needs dog like her into their family and love her unconditionally. Chloe is very gentle and affectionate. She loves cuddling and leaning into your legs to give “dog hugs”. She knows “sit” and “lie down”. And the best thing in the world according to Chloe? Squeaky toys!

For more information about Chloe please go to spcawake.org — or visit her in person and experience all her love first-hand at the SPCA of Wake County Pet Adoption Center in Raleigh!
Rocko is a low-key senior that came to the shelter recently as a stray. Like most seniors, he appreciates a good soft padded bed and naps. Despite his age, he still enjoys going out for (slow) walks and loves a good treat. He is extremely sweet and the look of love in his eyes will capture your heart in an instant.
Rocko is ready to go home today – he is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and is already neutered. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
Meet Leo from Second Chance Pet Adoptions, our Fursday pet of the week!
Leo is an 11 year, 5-month-old calm kitty that is ready to give you the biggest hug! He loves his humans, and would be fine with other mellow cats, but would also thrive as the only kitty! He is currently on a prescription diet to keep his urinary tract healthy, and, even better news, his adoption fee has been sponsored! Leo came to Second Chance declawed in his front paws, and is ready to prepare many biscuits for his future humans!
Sweet and gentle is how the volunteers described Dora. She came to the Center as a stray so we don’t know her background. Dora does head butts for attention. She uses her litter tray so she is probably litter box trained. Dora is a small kitty with beautiful gray stripes on her legs and tail. Her left eye is cloudy due to an old injury. It doesn’t seem to bother her and seems to be improving. She is shy at first and will need a patient adopter. Dora should be an inside kitty. Dora needs a quiet home, possibly with a single person or couple.

With eight years of practice in the fine art of friendship, Buffy is more than prepared to be your co-pilot in life! She prefers to fly solo in terms of other furry friends, but Buffy has plenty of personality to fill your heart alone. This gal loves to join her humans on adventures and walks but avoids spending too much time on the grass due to her allergies. She is currently on a prescription diet and medication regimens (in addition to allergy drops) due to some severe allergies she holds. With these medications, she is stable and comfortable! The staff would be happy to tell you more about her medical needs upon inquiry. Buffy needs a foster home or a forever home; if you are interested in learning more about her, please visit www.secondchancenc.org. Most of our dogs are housed in foster homes, but since Buffy is still in need of one, she currently resides at Second Chance Pet Adoptions, where you can stop by Monday through Friday between the hours of 11 AM and 5 PM and meet her!
“Hello there! I’m a sweet and friendly girl who loves gentle affection! I’m super happy to meet new people and also love to explore. I’m playful too, toss a ball or toy for me and see!

Hello there, thanks for stopping by to meet me. I’m Tyson and as you can see, I’m a handsome young man. I’ve been at the shelter for a while now and eager to find a family of my own. Being just over a year, I’m out of the puppy stages, but I do need regular exercise. I am an active boy and love to go on walks or romp in the doggy play yard. I have been in supervised playgroups with male and female dogs at the shelter and have done well. In fact they call me the unisex tester because they use me to try out the other dogs, males and females. I enjoy running around and being chased. I also love when the nice volunteers take me on long walks. It helps get my energy out. I would do best in a home with an active family that can keep me busy and give me several walks per day. A yard to run in would be a huge bonus for me. I am a happy boy and eager to please. Please visit me today and see how special I am. Big hugs, Tyson.

Our QDR Hometown Hero of the week is Austin Gregory, Firefighter for the Clinton Fire Department and Meadow Volunteer Fire Department.
Austin was nominated by Dale Gregory, who says, “On the evening of 7/10/2024, Austin was on his 24-hour shift, preparing for a shower when he heard his Lieutenant yelling for his help. Austin immediately came to assist his lieutenant and noticed him in major distress from cardiac arrest. After alerting others and making sure more help was on the way, Austin began immediate defibrillator and CPR. They were able to transport the lieutenant to the medical center via life flight to the heart center. Austin’s quick response, calmness, and implementation of his many hours of training saved the life of his brother/lieutenant. We are so proud of Austin and all the firefighters/first responders for all their sacrifices to save lives. Austin represents our true hometown heroes.”

Veronica came to us in February and has spent the majority of her time in foster care, gaining some weight and becoming comfortable with safe spaces. At 8 years old, Veronica is the type of dog that loves to have all the information before becoming comfortable in any situation. Let her sniffer get to work and then she’ll settle right down once she feels safe.
Veronica loves stuffed toys and a variety of tasty snacks. But with that in mind, she’ll need basic training, including 4-on-the-floor, so that she doesn’t crash your dinner party.
Have an empty seat at your next social event? Veronica’s address is 2117 East Club Blvd. Come visit her today!
Kids: 8+, jumpy
Dogs: Intense approach, lots of sniffing, then moves away. Slow and careful intros
