Dana is a 9-month-old spayed female brown tabby.

Nicholas is a 7-year-old declawed neutered male Maine coon. He is brown, white and tan.

Home at Last Pet Adoptions Inc. is an all-volunteer rescue group dedicated to saving animals, mostly cats, facing death at local shelters. There were nine adoptions Feb. 7-13.

Animals are evaluated for temperament and health. When ready for adoption, they are neutered and given age-appropriate shots, treated for fleas, wormed, tested for feline leukemia virus and feline immunodeficiency virus and microchipped. Animals are seen by appointment or at occasional special adoption events. There is a set donation fee for each pet. Call 476-6832 or e-mail halpetadoptions@yahoo.com for details.
