She is the star of the show now. She loves to parade around on her end of the leash and accept pets and treats. This girl is looking for a home with a moderately active lifestyle. If you are looking for a walking buddy that will do well with other dogs, Star may be the girl for you!

Adopt a Friend
Name and breed: Loki
Age: 6 years
Breed: Domestic Medium Hair
Sex: Male
Description: A good Samaritan found Loki wandering the streets in mid-March and rescued him by bringing him to PACC. And thank goodness too. Loki was pretty beaten up from the street life, but thanks to the wonderful clinic staff, he is on the mend. It has been discovered that Loki has some medical concerns, but you sure can’t tell that by his calm and sweet demeanor. Loki is a real charmer and enjoys a good cuddle. It may be best for Loki to be an only pet, but that really depends on the situation. Not because Loki doesn’t like other pets (he loves furry friends) because he may a condition that could be contagious to other pets. If you have the room in your home, and in your heart, Loki is the true definition of rescue. With just a little extra TLC and this bundle of love could be all yours. Because Loki is being placed as a Special Needs Cat, there is no charge to adopt him from PACC.
