EASY’s Pet of the Week: Bovo

Bevo (ID A651929) is just one of many great felines at the Humane Society of Broward County waiting to be adopted.  June is National Adopt a Shelter Cat month, so now is the purrfect time to add a feline to your family.  Bevo is playful, outgoing, curious and appears to get along with other felines.  Can he be part of your family?

To meet a pet, complete the pre-adoption application on the website www.humanebroward.com and stop by.  The Humane Society of Broward County opens daily at 11 AM and is located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale.  If you can’t adopt but want to help, the shelter has a wish list on Amazon and Chewy with a variety of items.  Or become a monthly donor, host a Yappy Hour at the shelter, purchase a brick in the paw pathway…there are many ways to help. Call 954-989-3977 ext. 6 with any questions.

AND HERE’S BELLA!

Bella (ID A664603) is aptly named. She is beautiful, sweet-natured, and very affectionate. Bella may be a bit shy at first, but she is curious, interested in meeting new friends, and warms up quickly. This four-year-old beauty will love to cuddle on your lap, just like she did with Jeff Martin from Easy 93.1 on a recent visit and she may even purr while sitting with you. Also, Bella won’t reject a treat or an interactive play session. Sometimes she will even lay on her back while kicking a soft toy with feathers. She will make a wonderful addition to a loving home. Thanks to our friends at J.R. Dunn Jewelers her adoption fee has been sponsored, she just needs someone to give her a chance. Could it be you? Bella has been waiting longer than any other feline for a home.

Adoption Ambassador: If you can provide a temporary home for a large-breed dog, become an Adoption Ambassador for the Humane Society of Broward County. Ambassadors help market the pet through your network of friends and associates, while giving the pet a vacation from the shelter environment. Sometimes a different setting is all that is needed to help our furry friends find their forever home.

Vaccine Clinic: Is open Monday – Friday, 9 AM – 4:30 PM credit cards only, no cash. This is a walk-in service and you may experience a wait of up to an hour. All cats must be in carriers and dogs on a leash at all times. If you have a retractable leash, please keep it short.
