PAWS Animal Shelter (cat)
Meet Peaches, a 6-year-old domestic short-hair orange cat that came has been at the shelter for three years. During her time with us she was adopted once and brought back because she didn’t get along with the family dog. She gets along with most all of the cats. Peaches is a bit overweight and will need to be with someone who will continue her exercise regimen. She is a bit sassy so we recommend a home without small children. She is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations. Come by and meet Peaches today!
PAWS is located at 1535 W. U.S. Route 36, just west of Urbana. Contact PAWS at 937-653-6233 or [email protected] for information about volunteer opportunities and donation needs.

Champaign County Animal Welfare League (dog)
The Champaign County Animal Welfare League (CCAWL) pet of the week is Asphalt, an 8-month-old Boxer mix rescued from a puppy mill. Asphalt is social and has a lot of puppy energy. Because he came from a puppy mill, he is not house-trained, but we feel this can be accomplished with a patient owner. He does well with other dogs, but hasn’t been cat-tested at this time. Asphalt is spunky, playful and would love a hiking buddy or a boy or girl to call his own. He has been neutered, microchipped and is current on all vaccinations: Bivalent Flu, Bordetella, Da2PPL, and Rabies. Asphalt has been dewormed and heartworm tested negative. He is current on flea and heartworm prevention. If you are thinking Asphalt would be a great fit for your family and would like to give him his first forever home, please fill out an application form.
