ADOPTION = DEVOTION
Anticipation. Excitement. And the feeling that comes from knowing you’re doing the right thing. They are all part of the adoption process at Columbus Humane.
FEATURED ADOPTABLES
Ferdinand
Hi! My name is Ferdinand and I am looking for someone to take me home and love me forever. What will you get in return? My handsome face to look at every day! Oh, and kisses. Lots of kisses and snuggles. I am a very sweet boy who loves to give and get attention from people. If you'd like to visit with me just ask an adoptions counselor!
Teddy
I am a little bashful at first but warm up after a few pets. I am looking for a family that can give me their time and attention, but also respect my space. I'm a senior cat, but don't let that make you think I don't have pep left in my step! I like to play and enjoy a good cat treat. Come meet me today!
mARSHA
Marsha, along with her litter mates, were born in the care of Columbus Humane. She is about 8 months old and ready to bust out of here! Do you think you could be the right fit for her? Come in and meet her soon!
