PAWS Animal Shelter (cats)
Meet Smokey, a gray domestic short-hair spayed female who has been at the shelter two-and-a-half years. She’s a quiet girl who likes to be petted. She gets along with other cats and would do well in a home where she can snuggle in and call it her own. Come meet Smokey today.

Champaign County Animal Welfare League (dog)
The Champaign County Animal Welfare League (CCAWL) pet of the week is Atlas, a one-year-old Norwegian Elkhound. Atlas is 42 pounds and came to us as an unclaimed stray. He is very laid back, but playful and will be extremely loyal to his new owners. Atlas does great with other dogs and cats. He takes treats gently and walks on a leash perfectly. Atlas is neutered, micro-chipped, current on all vaccinations: Bivalent Flu, Bordatella, Da2PPL and Rabies. He has been heart-worm tested negative, dewormed and is current on flea and heart-worm prevention.
