Story
Hi, I'm Utah. I 've been in the shelter a few times in my short life, as my previous human had some health issues and wasn't always able to take care of me. Now that I'm back at the shelter again, I'm really looking to find my forever home where I can relax and learn to play again. I'm looking for a home to hep me shed a few pounds so that I can become a spunky cat again! I am very affectionate and I enjoy the simple pleasures in life like sunbathing and birdwatching. I may be able to cohabit with another cat and/or dog with proper introduction. Although I'm no longer a kitten I am still young and full of love and playfulness for my purrfect family!--Our facility is open daily from 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM, meet and greet appointments are highly recommended. If you are interested in meeting an animal please contact us via email at Lancaster@pspca.org to learn more about our adoption process and to set a meet and greet appointment.

Story
Hi! My name is Riley and I am about 3 years old. I am a sweet boy looking for a quiet home and a family to love me. I was originally adopted from Pet Pantry as a kitten, but was recently returned because my previous family was moving into a smaller place and I couldn't go with them. I was very nervous and scared about this change, but with a lot of patience from staff and volunteers, I am gaining back my confidence and trust. I love attention and can be a great lap cat. I love getting pets and chin scratches and I will show you my belly and make "air biscuits" when I am happy.  I do have a history of struvite crystals in my urine. The folks here have me eating a special food called CD Multicare and I like it. Pet Pantry's medical director, Dr. Jen, recommends I stay on this food after I'm adopted and until I have an appointment with my new veterinarian. Then working with my doctor it can be decided if I should stay on this food or make a change. And don't worry, Pet Pantry will send you home with some of this special food while waiting for our first family vet appointment. Also, I'm on a medication called Reconcile. This medication has helped me relax while here at Pet Pantry. This is something else to talk to my new veterinarian about because I may be able to wean off once I'm in my new forever home. I am neutered, microchipped, and up to date on my vaccines. I am available for adoption at the Pet Pantry’s main facility, 26 Millersville Road, Lancaster. If you think I may be the purrfect match for your family please fill out an adoption application! Applications are available at our location as well as online at petpantrylc.org. From there, our adoption coordinator will be in touch!    November 1, 2024, 5:21 pm

Story
Hi! My name is Jack and I am about 3 years old. I was originally brought in when I was 3 months old. I was quickly adopted out. I recently was brought back because my owner could no longer care for me. When I came back it was discovered that I had blood in my urine, the staff here are not sure why and wonder if it is not due to stress. After antibiotics and on a specialty diet I am feeling better. I still have blood in my urine so that is something that will have to be closely monitored with your regular veterinarian. I am neutered, microchipped, and up to date on my vaccines. I am available for adoption at the Pet Pantry’s main facility, 26 Millersville Road, Lancaster. If you think I may be the purrfect match for your family please fill out an adoption application! Applications are available at our location as well as online at petpantrylc.org. From there, our adoption coordinator will be in touch! November 1, 2024, 5:21 pm

Story
Hi! My name is Oliver and I am about a year and a half old. I was adopted when I was a kitten and recently had to be brought back. I was not doing well in the home. You see I like things quiet and calm and their were young children in the home and a lot of activity. I would hide a lot and was scared to use my litter box. Because of this I do need to be on a urinary diet to prevent further medical flair ups. I am a sweet boy who loves a good chin scratch! I am a very sweet boy but being in the adoption room was very stressful for me. Since spending time in a foster home, my sweet purrsonality has shown through. I am available for a meet and greet with approved applicants. My foster family thinks I would be ok with another laid back cat friend. I am neutered, microchipped, and up to date on my vaccines. I am available for adoption at the Pet Pantry’s main facility, 26 Millersville Road, Lancaster. If you think I may be the purrfect match for your family please fill out an adoption application! Applications are available at our location as well as online at petpantrylc.org. From there, our adoption coordinator will be in touch! November 1, 2024, 5:21 pm

Cornelius is a very handsome ginger gentleman with stunning sea-blue eyes. Having come from a house with too many cats, he starts off a little shy with humans. He loves the other cats that share our communal cat room with him. He especially enjoys the company of his brother, Constantine, and would probably do best in a home where they can stay together. He would most likely thrive in a quiet household where he can continue to gain confidence. His personality is blossoming in front of our eyes and we'd love for you to meet him!

Don't let her grumpy face and creaky meow fool you - Pumpernickel is a sweetheart of a cat looking for her forever home. She's an independent, strong girl who loves attention on her terms and isn't shy about (gently) telling you when she's had enough. Head scritches are a must! She currently lives in our lobby with a few other cats and seems to tolerate having roommates just fine. This gorgeous chatterbox looks forward to living the good life with her very own people.
