Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter has a number of animals that are looking for their forever home.
The shelter, which was established in 1896, helps animals that are unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned - as well as reuniting lost animals with their owners and finding loving new homes for those who are no longer wanted.
Here are 17 cute animals who are in need of a home - you can find out more at: https://www.dogandcatshelter.com/.
Take a look and see if you can open your heart and home to a new four-legged friend!
5. Zeke (Crossbreed)
Zeke is a precious little boy who arrived into care as a stray, terrified of the world around him. He is growing in confidence one day at a time but he still finds the world a very overwhelming and scary place and will try and crawl into your arms at every opportunity for comfort. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
6. Billy (Shepherd Dog Cross)
Billy first came into care as a seven/eight-month-old lad and at the time was very silly and over the top. He was rehomed and his new family worked really hard with him, and loved him dearly, but found his behaviours too challenging to manage within their time and lifestyle and worried they were simply not the right home for him. Shelter staff have found him to be a lovely lad with a real heart of gold, and although we haven’t seen all of the behaviours described in the home, we have to consider that this could be environmental. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
7. Brahms (Old Tyme Bulldog)
Brahms is the most wonderful boy and an absolute character! Typical bulldog, Brahms is a chunky lad, and an absolute goofball! His cute chops may make him look a little grumpy, but his heart and personality are anything but! He is a happy, friendly and slightly silly lad who cannot help but make you smile. Brahms can be excitable, sometimes forgetting his manners, and jumps up when he is excited, but he means no harm and is easily redirected. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
8. Moon
Moon is a sweet little lady who has settled in pretty quickly at the shelter. Moon has shown that she is not a fan of other cats and can be quite grumpy towards them, however – she absolutely loves making human friends and can be quite vocal for attention! She loves being made a fuss of and having cuddles! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
