Welcome to Fur-iday Friends, a new special Friday feature from Coal Region Canary that shines a spotlight on the adorable pets awaiting adoption at Hillside SPCA, just outside Pottsville.
Every Friday, we’ll introduce you to a group of the shelter’s charming residents — cats and dogs — all eager to find a loving home.
Whether you’re looking to expand your family with a furry companion or offer a pet their forever home, these animals are ready to bring joy and companionship into your life.
Join us on “Fur-iday” as we help these delightful pets find the love and care they deserve.
Are you ready to meet your new best friend? Let’s discover who’s ready to come home with you today!
McGee & Haley
McGee, a Golden retriever, and Haley, a Labradoodle, are a bonded pair.
They’re about 2 years old. This pair of friends were rescued as part of a humane case handled by Hillside SPCA.
McGee is high-energy and loves to play. Haley is very friendly but needs a little bit of time to warm up to new friends.
They’d do best in an active home.
Both McGee and Haley are fixed and up-to-date on all shots.
Jethro
Jethro is between 6-8 years old and resides in the Cat Office at Hillside. He’s eager to greet everyone who enters and will absolutely talk your ear off if you let him.
He came to the shelter after his last owner, an elderly woman, was unable to care for him any longer.
Jethro is FIV-positive but he’s neutered and up-to-date on all his shots.
His adoption is sponsored.
Amaya
Amaya is a very friendly 4-year-old. She came to the shelter as a stray.
Amaya is spayed and up-to-date on all her shots.
She’s extremely friendly but just needs a little adjustment time to adapt to her new surroundings.
