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. Veronica
Veronica is a lovely girl who has been a dream to spend time with during her time at the shelter. Despite arriving at the shelter pregnant – she took it all in her stride, she made swift friends with all our staff and settled straight in. She is a very sweet girl who is always pleased to see you – she will often be on your lap, or cuddled next to you for a snooze. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
10. Pogo (Lurcher)
Pogo is a young lady with a lot of character and a tonne of energy! She is looking for an active family who can keep up with her and have a lot of fun with her! Pogo loves to run and is often found zooming around and enjoys chasing a ball, she would love a big back garden to play in every day! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
11. Milo (Chihuahua Cross)
Milo is a shy lad when he first meets new people and takes a little bit of time to build up the confidence to make new friends. Milo loves going out for his daily walks, but also equally loves curling up on the sofa next to his human friends. He will make a lovely cosy companion on the colder days! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
12. Honey
Honey is a sweet older girl who has lived a rather quiet indoor life. She is a quiet and affectionate cat who can be vocal sometimes to say hello and loves a head scratch! She loves catnip and to chase fluffy catnip toys. Honey would suit a quiet home where she can snooze as much as she wants but also have the ability to come get affection and cuddles when she wishes! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
