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 19 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!

5. Ivor
Ivor is a wonderful lad who has been a pleasure to get to know during his stay at the shelter. He initially struggled to adjust to the shelter environment when he first arrived, but now that he’s found his feet, he has shown staff what an affectionate and laid-back boy he is. He absolutely loves being made a fuss of off those he’s comfortable with and will lie, purring away, for as long as possible being brushed – he absolutely loves a good groom! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

6. Kermit (Pocket Bully)
Kermit is an absolute superstar. He is a brilliant boy with a personality as big as his smile. He adores his humans and will make friends easily with everyone he meets, happily rolling on his back for some tummy rubs. Kermit has become a firm favourite with the team at the shelter – he is just an absolute pleasure to be around. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

7. Doug (Pug Crossbreed)
Doug is the most delightful little character you could wish to meet! He lives life in the fast lane and is a real little busy body. Doug loves going out for walks and although is a slightly older boy, is still very energetic and will follow his nose all day long, he would love to go home with an active family where he can go on adventures | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

8. Sultan
Sultan is a cat that cannot be missed! He is a very large boy who has a large personality to match and an even larger heart. He is a very confident and affectionate boy often demanding attention from anyone and everyone he comes across. He has a large and vocal meow to go with it. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
