Sitka dogs - it’s your time to shine! ✨🐕

Friends of Sitka Animal Shelter is excited to announce Best in Show Sitka, a fun new event celebrating the dog owners and dog lovers of our community!

There will be fun categories including Floppiest Ears, Fluffiest, Best Tricks, Owner/Pet Look-Alike, Smallest, Largest, and more! There will be one winner in each category, but every pup will go home with a participation ribbon and, of course, plenty of tail-wagging fun 🐾🏆

Happy Caturday from Ula, Pumpkin Spice and Rick! These three lovely kitties are available for adoption at the Sitka Animal Shelter 🐾

Adopted! Rick, 10 years old 🐱
Rick is the full package! This handsome boy is sweet, playful, loving, easygoing, and outdoorsy. Rick loves sitting on laps, gazing out the window, playing with toys and hanging out with other cats 🩵

Ula, 7 years old 🐱
Ula is looking for a lap to sit on and a pile of blankets to cuddle up in! 🩷 She loves head scratches, being cozy, and watching birds out the window. Ula would do best as the only cat in her new home.

Pumpkin Spice, 7 years old 🐱
Pumpkin Spice is looking for a cozy home and a human to be the boss of! 🧡 She loves catnip, chasing toys, and bird watching. Pumpkin is sweet and spicy - she loves being around people but is not afraid to let you know when she’s had enough. Pumpkin would do best in a home without young kids or other cats.

Send us a message to learn more about Rick, Ula, and Pumpkin Spice or to schedule a time to meet them! ❤️
