Pet of the Week: “Captain Purr”

TIFTON, Ga. – It’s time to meet our Pet of the Week! Ahoy, Mateys! Say hello to “Captain Purr!”

This 14-pound lovebug came to Friends of Tift County Animal Shelter with a severely damaged eye, but thanks to Tift Animal Rescue, he got the care he needed and is ready to set sail for a forever home. He may have just one eye, but captain purr sees life through a lens of love and he’s got a heart full of treasure. This guy is ready to spend his days cuddling, playing, and keeping you company.

Let’s help this “captain” find his crew! You can meet him at Friends of Tift County Animal Shelter on Highway 125 South in Tifton, or give them a call at 229-382-7387.
