Zeppie is a 4 year-old tuxedo male cat. He came to Valley Shore Animal Welfare League (VSAWL) about two years ago. He can be very friendly, although it has been noticed that he prefers men. He is also independent and would be better off as the only cat in a home with no dogs. Zeppie is up to date on his vaccines, flea preventative, and is neutered. If interested in Zeppie, call VSAWL at 860-399-7561 for more information.

VSAWL is a no-kill, non-profit animal shelter located in Westbrook, open five days a week (Tuesdays through Saturdays, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Calling ahead is recommended for availability. All animals live on site and can be viewed for consideration for adoption.

To see who else is waiting for a home at the shelter, visit www.valleyshoreanimalwelfareleague.org and www.facebook.com/VSAWL as well as www.petfinder.com. VSAWL also accepts relinquished cats and dogs based on animal intake guidelines and if space is available. To relinquish a cat or dog, call the shelter office at 860-399-7561.
