Louie has been living at the DeKalb Animal Shelter for a long time. In fact, he has been there longer than any other pet. And while Louie is welcome there, he needs a forever home.

Will you be that loving, caring family who gives him such a home?

You can adopt Louie this week.

“Louie is our longest current resident at the shelter. He has been with us since he was a little kitten. He has been waiting to find the perfect place to call home. Louie loves socializing with other cats and has quite the curious personality. He has been neutered, is up to date on vaccinations, and has flea prevention on board. He is available for adoption for only $10! Won’t you come and meet Louie today?” said Emmaly Bennett, Shelter employee.
