‼️ ADOPTED ‼️ This beautiful girl is Georgie. Sadly her owner passed away and the family tried to find a new home for her and her sister. Georgie is a little shy and grieving so they were only able to place her sister. We have had her updated on her shots and tested for leukemia/fiv which she is negative. She is estimated at 6 years old. Georgie would do best in a quiet and patient home. She loves to sit in her cubby and she will let you pet her and give her treats. This is her safe space with all the new changes. If you would like to meet Georgie please call (203)924-2501 press 2. We also think another cat would help her come out of her shell so a sibling cat would be great.

MISSING IN ANSONIA
🚨 Hi My name is Jeanie and I am the animal control officer in Ansonia. On 9/22 I adopted a dog out to a family who came highly recommended . Vet checked no prior problems with their last dog. The dog escaped in a hole in the fence. Dog Gone Rescue came out immediately and haven't given up !! They posted several posters and have diligently searched the area over and over . The people on the hilltop are all helping by setting up feeding stations and cameras. Sami came to me almost dead. He weighed three pounds. We got him up to 6 pounds . But he needs to gain weight . He needs medication and special food. If you have found him I'm sure you love him. But he needs medical attention. He is only two and we want him to live a long healthy life . Please help him. If you have him reach out. No questions .
Please 🙏🙏 🚨

💥We are asking everyone in the area if they could please check their cameras 💥
This cute pup managed to slip out a hole in the fence. He is brand new to the area and is very skittish. We ask that you please do not chase him at all as he is a runner. We need him to stay in the area. Please call the number on the flyer immediately with any sightings
