My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This adorable munchkin is Maximus! He arrived at the shelter as a lost boy on 12/6, and sadly, no one has come to reclaim him. Maximus is now looking for a new, forever home where he will be loved and kept safe so that he never ends up back in the shelter. The volunteers describe Maximus as friendly and loving. He is a well-behaved little guy; he's quiet in his kennel and he walks nicely on leash! If you're looking for a small, cute, new BFF to dote on please come meet Maximus!

Maximus is approximately 2 years old, and he weighs 16 lbs. He is UTD on vaccines, and he will be neutered and microchipped upon adoption. Unfortunately, Maximus did test positive for heartworms, but with proper care and treatment, he can go on to live a long and healthy life. Please speak with shelter staff about the option of fostering to adopt while he receives his treatment. Maximus is waiting patiently in kennel 322; his ID # is 6691.

Note - all the listings on Friends of Shelter Animals for Cobb are done by volunteers. If this cat or dog came in as a lost animal, we do not know how they might be with children, other pets, or if house trained. You can bring your pet to the shelter for a meet & greet with your potential new best friend. When inquiring about a cat or dog, please use THE ID NUMBER.
