Paws to Consider Your Pets of the Week, May 17

This Thursday, May 19, the Humane Society will hold a General Meeting at their Thrift Store 7 p.m.

Today the Humane Society of Forsyth County introduces us to Chance and Brownie, Cumming Patch's featured pets of the week.

Chance is a yellow male Jack Russell Terrier pup born on March 11. Chance is  currently in foster care, but is looking for his permanent forever home.

Brownie is a golden, orange and white mature cat born around Dec. 1, 2008. He  lives at the adoption center with his four siblings (Blackie, Jackson, Annie, and Alice). They all came to the shelter when their owner became very sick and couldn't take care of them any longer. Brownie lives in a big room with eight kitty roommates–they all play and get along with one another, but he misses his special human and hopes you will consider giving him a forever home.
