Jace is looking for a safe barn, warehouse, or business where he can spend his days keeping your space vermin-free. A 7-month-old semi-feral male, Jace can be pet, but doesn’t seem to enjoy much human contact. He’d rather prefer to be left alone to do cat stuff such as mousing.

At almost 7 years old, Layce is ready for a loving home. She is good with older kids, and ok with cats, but prefers to be an only dog. She enjoys brisk walks, keeps herself very clean, is housetrained, and loads herself into a vehicle for traveling. Layce is spayed, and current on vaccinations.

The Carolina chickadee is a fairly common bird and is easily attracted to backyard feeders. Since I featured the tufted titmouse last week, I thought it best to feature the bird which is often seen along with it.
