Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter has a number of animals that are looking for their forever home.
The shelter, which was established in 1896, helps animals that are unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned - as well as reuniting lost animals with their owners and finding loving new homes for those who are no longer wanted.
Here are 15 cute animals who are in need of a home - you can find out more at: https://www.dogandcatshelter.com/.
Take a look and see if you can open your heart and home to a new four-legged friend!

9. Joker (Lurcher)
Joker is a very confident and friendly lad who really enjoys being around people and getting attention from people. His other favourite things are food and chasing a flirt pole! Joker walked into the shelter without a worry in the world, but does find being in a kennel a little stressful, he is always super grateful when he is brought out for his walks. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

10. Henry
Henry is a lovely young boy who didn’t take long to settle in here at the shelter. He loves having an explore of the cattery and having attention from shelter staff and volunteers – purring away as soon as they stroke him! He also enjoys playing with catnip toys. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

11. Goose (Lurcher)
Goose is a lovely lad and, as the name suggests, a bit of a silly goose! He can initially be worried around new people/situations, but warms up quickly and is soon showing his fun side! Once he is comfortable with you, he enjoys being made a fuss of and spending time with his humans. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

12. Audrey
Audrey is a lovely little lady who was brought into care as a stray with her four young kittens. Initially, Audrey was quite worried about the shelter environment and would be a little defensive or hide away. However, since her kittens are now old enough and have been separated, Audrey has found things a lot less stressful since she no longer has kittens to worry about and has been growing in confidence ever since. | Newcastle & Cat Shelter
