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 23 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!

2. Hercules (Crossbreed)
Hercules is a sweet and sensitive little lad who enjoys human company – when not following his nose! When out and about on his walks, he absolutely loves sniffing and exploring his environment and can be quite independent – seeming to forget his humans are there! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
3. Zaion (Terrier Crossbreed)
Zaion is a sweet little lad who finds the world quite an overwhelming place and has lots of worries, especially in new places or with new people. His new owners will need to have the time and experience to help him settle and slowly build his confidence out in the big world! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
4. Hemingway
Hemingway hasn’t been in care for long so shelter staff are still getting to know him but he has a very strong dislike for other cats which is making it harder for them to get to know his true personality. He arrived in care as a stray, so they don’t know his history. Hemingway is a confident lad, he’s nice to people initially but he gets frustrated by the other cats in the cattery and he sometimes misdirects his frustration towards staff. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
