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!

9. Lad (Lurcher)
Lad is a lovely boy who has been a pleasure to spend time with during his stay at the shelter. He really enjoys getting out and about on his walks and having a good explore. He is also very food-motivated, so loves his treats, but this means he is quite a greedy boy and so staff suspect he may have the potential to steal food if given the opportunity. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

10. Chase (Staffordshire Bull Terrier)
Chase is a brilliant boy who has been a pleasure to spend time with at the shelter. He is a lovely and energetic lad, who is great fun to be with! He is a typical bull-breed, who can be daft and excitable and enjoys ragging his toys and a good game of tug! He will need an active family who are able to provide him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation, to keep him happy and healthy in both body and mind. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

11. Tinsel (Lurcher)
Tinsel is a lovely, super friendly young girl. She is a very bouncy and energetic young lady who appears to be lacking in some of the basic puppy training she should’ve had. She will need experienced owners who are able to teach her some more appropriate behaviours, including how to walk nicely on the lead and how to keep all four paws remaining on the floor rather than jumping up. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

12. Molly and Snowie
Molly and Snowie are a beautiful bonded pair who have enjoyed making friends with staff and volunteers at the shelter. Molly and Snowie are young girls who are still very-much kittens! They are a playful duo who enjoy playing both with each other and their humans. Molly also particularly enjoys catnip! Snowie (tabby and white) is the more outgoing of the two and will usually be straight over to say hello. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
