PETS OF THE WEEK

TAZ & SHARKBITE

Room for two with you? We're friendly, fun-loving ferrets, both adult neutered males (and descented), and we're a strongly bonded pair and want to stay together forever. Please don't forget the many gentle species, including rabbits, guinea pigs, turtles, hamsters and more that also await a new, loving, lifelong home. You can come meet and adopt all of us at Nevada SPCA.

The Nevada SPCA is a no-kill animal sanctuary located at 4800 W. Dewey Drive in Las Vegas. For more information on animals featured here, visit www.nevadaspca.org, or call 873-7722.

AVA, EVA, MIA, NANCY & TINA

While Sinatra, as in Frank (left), has been adopted, his harem is still available and looking for a loving home or homes. The six puppies arrived at the Las Vegas Weimaraner Club & Rescue as a breeder turn-in. Like all puppies, they are curious, full of energy and ready to begin their new lives.
