Adoptable Animals at the Oak Ridge Shelter

01/04/2025

Reindeer is looking for his new family. He thought for sure they would be here by now. 😻
This handsome boy is friendly, likes attention, and is curious and playful. He is a young Russian Blue mix with lots of energy. Reindeer is tired of being cooped up in his shelter cage and is ready to spread his wings (or should we say, his paws?) in a forever home. 🐾 He's looking for a family who will provide him with plenty of love, attention, and playtime.

📢Today (Saturday, Jan 4th) is the last day of the $55 adoption fee special. Come and meet Reindeer to find out if he is the kitty of your dreams! He is waiting for you!
