Oreo

Gender: Male

Age: 3 years

Weight: 63 pounds

Species: Dog

Breed: Mountain Cur, Black/White

Orphaned Since:  April 4

Adoption Fee: $150

Oreo kind of looks like the cookie, black on both sides and white in the middle. Yet his 63-pound body is way too heavy to dunk in milk. He's sweet, gentle and his coat is low maintenance, allowing more time for fun. He's a little selective with other dogs and should get some basic home training. Meet Oreo by an appointment at www.spcaflorida.org/appointment. Bring treats, just not Oreos.

Trigger

Gender: Male

Age: 3 + years

Weight: 41 pounds

Species: Dog

Breed: Black Mouth Cur, Tan

Orphaned Since: May 4

Adoption Fee:  $150

Trigger is a little shy guy at first, but the shyness goes away once he gets to sniff you, look at you, take in your vibe and see you are a good person. Then the fun Trigger comes out. First he wants to run and play hard. Next, he wants to wind down and watch some TV while cuddling. He's food motivated, so yes, bring the treats. Come meet Trigger by making an appointment at www.spcaflorida.org/appointment.

Baby

Gender: Female

Age: 4+ years

Weight: 8 pounds

Species: Cat

Breed: Domestic Shorthair, Grey/Tan

Orphaned Since: Sept. 13

Adoption Fee: $50

Baby is very shy at first, but once she gets to know you, her sweet and sour personality comes alive. She's lived with other animals before but will need a slow introduction to any pets in her new home. She'll probably hide out at first until she feels comfortable. She's not particularly fond of wet food and would rather nosh on dry food when hunger presents itself. She likes to play with lasers and string toys. Make an appointment to meet her at www.spcaflorida.org/appointment.

Mystery

Gender: Female

Age: 7 years

Weight: 6+ pounds

Species: Cat

Breed: Domestic Shorthair, Brown Torbie

Orphaned Since: Jan. 28

Adoption Fee: $50

You've never met a cat that enjoys being petted as much as Mystery. She's energetic and super friendly and if you're willing to pet her, she won't want to leave your side. She's 7 years old but you would never guess; she's a kitten at heart. She doesn't like doggos and prefers being your one and only. So if you like affection, feeding her chicken, playing — especially with wands — would love only her and also don’t like dogs, then you're a match. Come meet Mystery by making an appointment at www.spcaflorida.org/appointment.
