Pet of the Week Charlie

Charlie, a 5-year-old Pit Bull Terrier mix, seeks a relaxed home where he can enjoy simple pleasures like sunny spots and back scratches. The Humane Society for Tacoma & Pierce County is preparing for an influx of over a thousand orphaned kittens this spring, many of whom will require urgent medical care and constant supervision. The shelter's virtual Kitten Shower aims to gather community donations, which are essential for the care and treatment of these vulnerable animals. Charlie's calm demeanor makes him an ideal companion for those who enjoy outdoor activities or quiet time at home. Adopting pets like Charlie not only provides them a home but also supports the mission of local shelters.

The shelter emphasizes the importance of community involvement in animal welfare, especially during peak seasons for kitten births. Donations can significantly impact the lives of these orphaned kittens, ensuring they receive the necessary care. Charlie's story and the shelter's efforts reflect the broader need for animal adoption and community support in Tacoma.
