This older gent is Zeus. Thats right – a little guy with a big mans name and a big personality. Zeus is sweet and cuddly. And he is absolutely adorable dressed in his fashionable jackets or romping in the snow. While Zeus is the perfect walking companion, he can also be the perfect, snuggly, couch buddy. Since Zeus would prefer to not live with another dog, he may do best in a quieter neighborhood. However, he has a good history living with cats and birds. And if children are old enough to give Zeus his space, that might also work. Zeus is hoping for an adopter who will keep his world small while he settles in. Do you think Zeus is the dog for you?

Finches have a wonderful voice, and can be a joy to watch, but tend not to be a “hands on” bird. Native to Australia, finches can live up to 10 years with proper nutrition and care. We recommend that finches live in pairs or groups whenever possible.
We recommend a cage that is at least 27”x24” (Width x depth) with a maximum of ½” bar spacing. Cages should include lots of perches, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. As a result of finches being a “hands off” bird they tend to spend much of their lives inside their cage, so we heavily recommend investing in a very spacious cage with lots of enrichment.
The needs of each finch are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the finch you are interested in, please give us a call! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Trolli is part of a group that came to us from an overcrowding situation, and as such we don’t have a ton of information of what she is like in a home. Trolli can be shy but friendly, she lived with many rabbits before and can have a well matched rabbit friend, or can live solo.
We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows a rabbit to stretch their legs and move around. The needs of each rabbit are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the rabbit you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice

Peanut is part of a group that came to us from an overcrowding situation, and as such we don’t have a ton of information of what she is like in a home. Peanut lived with many rabbits before and may do well with a well matched female friend or she can live alone. She would likely do best with a rabbit experienced adopter that can plan to give her plenty of time to slowly adjust to the home, and all the people in it.

Nora came to us on a transport from another shelter that is overwhelmed with the number of homeless animals in their care and is ready to find a new home of their own! We’re not sure what this little pup is mixed with, but we think they will likely be on the larger side. Like all pups, they will need their family to teach them all the doggie basics like walking on a leash and housetraining. For puppies under 4 months, signing up for a puppy training class at an MSPCA-Angell location is included with the adoption fee if you take advantage of the offer during time of adoption. Let an adoption team member know if you’d like us to help sign you up during the adoption process.
Stop by Northeast Animal Shelter to meet Nora. We have open adoption hours 7 days a week from 11:30am-5pm - no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available pets.
Cinnamon & Jasper are a bonded pair of young males! These handsome fellas came to us with limited information so we aren’t sure what they are like in a home, but like most guines pigs they can be a bit shy at first then once comfortable are social and enjoy exploring. They came in with Joey & Orion as well, and enjoy talking to their friends between the cages.
Guinea pigs can make wonderful pets! They are very social creatures which means that they generally need at least one companion! Of course guinea pigs should only be kept with other piggies of the same sex. A pair of guinea pigs needs at minimum 10.5 sq. feet of cage space, or roughly 30″ x 50″ with a solid bottom, but more room is always encouraged! Guinea pigs can be quite noisy which can be lovely as long as you are expecting it!

Budgerigars, the most common parakeet we see, are native to Australia where they live in massive flocks in the grasslands. Parakeets tend to be docile, gentle, can be easy to tame and can even talk! Despite their small size, these birds can have large vocabularies and can make a wonderful training companion. We recommend that parakeets live in pairs or groups whenever possible. Parakeets can live up to 7-15 years with proper nutrition and care, and can be a loyal companion.
We recommend a cage that is at least 27×24 (Width x depth) with a maximum of bar spacing. Cages should include lots of perches, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. Nests can be provided but should be removed if any females begin to lay eggs. We do not recommend a seed only diet as it can lead to malnutrition and other potential issues, please consult your vet for specific diet recommendations.
The needs of each parakeet are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the parakeet you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Meet Persia! This affectionate, playful girl has been waiting patiently at the shelter for her perfect adopter to come along.
Persia is a little bit on the spicy side of life! Persia would do best with an adopter who is not phased by a little pizazz, is willing to learn to read cat body language, and can give her time to adjust to a new home.
Persia is worried, and sweet, so were taking it slow as we get to know her and allowing her to build up confidence at her own pace. Come on in to meet Persia and see if she is a good match for your family!

Jojo is an older gentleman with a wonderfully sweet personality. Hes easygoing, sociable, and enjoys his leash walks. Jojo is also housetrained and has done well meeting children in the past.
Hes looking for a calm home where he can decompress and settle in at his own pace. Jojo will thrive with an adopter who takes the time to get to know him and respond to his cues. He could likely live with another dog given a thoughtful introductionhe previously lived with his friend Blu. While Jojo hasnt lived with a cat or children in a home setting, he could possibly do well with both after a careful introduction. Children should be able to participate in his training plan and practice petting consent under adult guidance.

Meet Penny! Penny has been waiting patiently at the shelter for her perfect adopter to come along.
Penny has been overlooked due to her age – while kittens and young adults cats are often adopted quickly, many of our senior cats wait longer to find their perfect match. We think Penny deserves the best retirement home, and adopting a senior can be extremely rewarding.
Penny is worried, and sweet, so were taking it slow as we get to know her and allowing her to build up confidence at her own pace. Come on in to meet Penny and see if she is a good match for your family!

This playful kitten came to us on a transport and is ready to find a new home of their own! We are still getting to know them, but like most kittens, they will need a family to teach them all the kitten basics like socializing with people and playing with appropriate toys. They could likely go to a home with another cat who wants an annoying younger sibling to be a role model to.
