❤️ZEPP❤️

Are you looking for a sweet, orange, male kitten who likes to cuddle and does great with other cats? Perhaps, Zepp is the marmalade kitten of your dreams?!

Meet Zepp!!!

Zepp is a sweet young kitten, who initially came to the shelter with some fur loss, due to a reaction to fleas. The fleas are gone and his fur is mostly regrown, but it’s still a little thin in spots.

Zepp is up to date on vaccines and preventatives. He’s still too young to be neutered, but will come with a voucher to help defray that cost.

If interested in Zepp, please send a message to the Hico Animal Control page (preferred method), or contact Hamilton County Dispatch (254) 386-3300

❤️LISA❤️

Are you looking for a little dog, who is great with people and cats, and likes to play with other little dogs? Perhaps, Lisa is the dog for you?!

Poor little Lisa came to the Hico Animal Control Shelter after her former owner died. She’s been great with the other little dog she was initially kenneled with. They loved running and playing together. She’s also done great hanging out with the cats in the cat room, though she might help clean litter boxes for you by eating the cat poo. She also seems to love every human she meets and wants to be held by them.

Lisa is an ~6 months old, 7.8 lbs., female Chihuahua/Terrier mix. She does okay on leash but will pancake and want to be picked up and held. She’s doggie door trained.

Lisa is up to date on vaccines, Rabies, Bordatella, and is on preventatives for fleas/ticks/heartworms, and other intestinal parasites. She is not yet spayed or microchipped, as the vet would like her to be a bit older.

You may notice that Lisa has one front leg that turns inwards. This was from a previous break when she was about 2 months old. It’s not causing her any pain. She just needs a loving home. Could that home be yours?

If you’re interested in possibly adopting Lisa, please send a text message to PAWS-Hamilton County, 484-356-8601. Please TEXT ONLY
We’d be happy to tell you more about her.
Thank you for your consideration.

❤️CHESTNUT❤️

Are you looking for a young puppy with ears as big as his heart? Perhaps Chestnut is the puppy for you?!

Meet CHESNUT

Poor Chestnut and his eight siblings were found unceremoniously abandoned at the cemetery in Hamilton, Texas, and were brought to the shelter by the Animal control Officer. We have since moved Chestnut to the shelter in Hico, TX, so he can get used to using a doggie door, and to help socialize him.

Chestnut is about 4.5 months old, 26 lbs., neutered male hound mix puppy. He's very good with people and does well with other dogs, but he tends to be submissive, so his siblings like to gang up on him. He loves to play his version of fetch, which involves you throwing a toy and him chasing it. He's run back by you with it but hasn't learned to give it back to you yet. He's a bit goofy that way. The best part of playing fetch with Chestnut is the way his big ears flop and fly up when he runs. It's a beautiful sight to behold.

He is up to date on vaccines, Rabies, Bordatella, and is on preventatives for fleas/ticks/heartworms and other intestinal parasites. He is doggie door trained and should do well inside a home. He hasn't really been on leash much yet, so will need more practice with that. He should do well with older children but may chase cats. Mostly, Chestnut is a happy healthy puppy who just needs a loving home to give him a bit of guidance. Could that home be yours?

If interested in possibly adopting Chestnut, please send a text message to PAWS-Hamilton County, 484-356-8601

Meet Wolfie

Wolfie and his 8 siblings were found dumped at the cemetery in Hamilton, TX and brought to the shelter. Since then, they've been growing, playing, and learning to trust people again.

Wolfie is a weird looking little guy who's darker furred widow's peak makes him look like a furry Eddie Munster. Perfect for Halloween. He likes to play with toys, cans, and other dogs. He's doggie door trained, and very people friendly. We don't know how he is with cats or livestock.

He's about 4.5 months old, around 23 lbs., up to date on vaccines, Rabies, and Bordatella. He's neutered and on preventatives for fleas/ticks/heartworms, and other intestinal parasites.

Mostly, Wolfie is a happy, healthy puppy, who just looking for a loving home to grown and thrive in. Could that home be yours?
