FCAS Pets of the Week: Lacy and Kerry
One pet who is FREE on Free Dog Friday is Lacy the Lovebug. As her picture above shows, Lacy’s specialties are snuggling, cuddling and being adorable. This one-year-old girl has a beautiful black coat and soulful, sweet eyes. She is good natured and gets along well with other dogs too. The staff at FCAS just adores Lacy and you will too!
Kerry is another staff favorite. She is a two-year-old cat who likes to sneak into the adoption office and demand attention. She is so loving and affectionate that it is amazing she hasn’t been adopted yet! She is also pretty and already spayed.
