Beverly Animal Shelter Leftovers.  Those black dogs who (you can’t believe) still haven’t been adopted.  Then there are those loving, black feline, lucky charms.  What do they have in common besides being “leftovers”?  They are all the most affectionate pets you could find. 

 

BEN & JASMINE

 

 

Charming, quiet, Black Lab mix, Ben arrived at the Shelter a few months ago with his Pomeranian companion after their owner took ill.  While Ben’s small white companion has found a home, Ben still waits for his.  A young man who loves his walks, Ben weighs about 60 pounds.  He is all head with a smaller body and he could use a few extra pounds on his frame.  Ben gets along with all.  He is up to date on his vaccinations and will be neutered before adoption.
A medium sized black Lab/Retriever mix with just a touch of white around her mouth, chest and left hind leg, 4-year-old Jasmine is ready for a permanent commitment.  Estimated to weigh 55 pounds, Jasmine is a real sweetie who loves to give kisses.  Although not to cats.  She would prefer to live in a home without cats.  Endearing Jasmine is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations.

 

 

NIGHTSHADE & BUBBIE  

 

 

 

Nightshade, the plant, may have a dangerous reputation, while lovely petite Nightshade, the mother cat who along with her kittens was disposed of from a car, had a dangerous introduction to the Beverly Animal Shelter.  The kittens are older now and the last few are also waiting for adoption. Less than one-year-old Nightshade is now free to find her own loving home.  Mostly black with just a touch of white on her neck, belly and left hind foot, affectionate Nightshade is spayed and up to date on her vaccinations.
Wearing his black and white tuxedo, young, handsome, silky Bubbie arrived with his sister, Sissy, a grey tiger who is also available for adoption.  A low-keyed kind of guy, Bubbie knows he could improve the karma of any home.  Just about one year old, he is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations.

 

 

LILAC & ALEX 

 

 

Enchanting, shorthaired, black Lilac arrived with her equally black siblings, Alex and Theodore.  Petite Lilac is pale green-eyed while yellow-eyed Alex is of average size.  Estimated to be less than one year old, they are all “love bugs” in search of loving homes.  They are up to date on their vaccinations and respectively spayed/neutered.

 

 

LAST WEEK’S PETS  -  Last week’s needy felines, Gimpy, Survivor, Crazy Bones, Gilligan, Willow and Patches remain patiently waiting for their new loving homes.

Jenna’s building construction is progressing.  Thanks go out to all the generous contributors, especially those of you who have purchased the doors and windows for the building! Each door and window will have a plaque, which will be purchased shortly, recognizing your generosity.  Only $15,000 more is needed to complete the building.  Are you aware that Dallyn plans to do Spay & Neuter Clinics on sight?   Let’s get the building finished and put to good use before Winter sets in!!!

 

 

Many thanks go out to the generous supporters who continue to make the Beverly Animal Shelter viable.

 

 

The Beverly Animal Shelter is currently participating with the Auburn SPCA in the SOS - Shelter Outreach Service (aka Save Our Shelter from the overflow of unwanted animals) Discounted Spay and Neuter Clinics held in Auburn.  Those people adopting Puppies and/or Kittens from the Shelter will be required at adoption to make their deposit to participate in this clinic.  The NYS Spay/Neuter program is no longer available to residents in Seneca County.  The SOS clinic is also open to members of the community who have not adopted from the Shelter.  A reservation and deposit are required.  Please contact the Shelter at 539-9357 for more information.

 

 

The Shelter is (as it usually is) in need of laundry (detergent and bleach) and cleaning supplies.  Also needed are cat litter and paper towels, regular towels and blankets. 

 

 

We have taken in quite a few stray dogs in recent weeks.  Please, if you have lost your dog, do call the shelter.  Do not wait for an advertisement of “found dog” to appear.  UPDATE: The BAS online site will now have a list of 'found' pets.  If you are missing a pet, please check the site.

 

 

The Beverly Animal Shelter is now collecting your old cell phones.  When the Shelter sends the phones in, they receive a small donation in return.

 

 

BAS, in partnership with Seneca Humane Society, participates in the Purina Pets for Seniors program.  Purina provides a partial adoption-fee rebate to anyone 60 or older who adopts a pet.

 

 

Please be a responsible pet owner.  Spay and neuter your pets to prevent more unwanted animals.  ONLY YOU can prevent the overflow of kittens that begins each Spring and carries on into the Fall.
