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 21 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. Yeti (American Bulldog)
Yeti is a delightful, playful and goofy lad always on the look out for some fun and attention! Yeti arrived into care as a stray and was in quite a state bless his heart. His skin was in a terrible condition and his ears bled they were so bad; he must have been in so much pain. Despite being a chunky boy, Yeti still seems to believe he is a lapdog and will happily jump on you knee for a cuddle! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

6. Kira
Kira is an affectionate older girl who did take a little time to settle when she arrived here, since she’s started to feel more comfortable though, we’re now seeing her true personality. Kira loves a comfy bed and happily snoozes when no-one is around, but as soon as you go into her pen she’s straight over to you for a fuss. She’s even happy to be picked up, and will snuggle into you for a cuddle purring away. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

7. Trevor (Crossbreed)
Trevor is a lovely lad who was very worried and timid when he first arrived here at the shelter. He was quite shut down and lacked in confidence. During his time with us, we have slowly seen improvement with this, but he still has some progress to make in coming out of his shell! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

8. 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
