Shelter Pet of the Week: Owen

“Owen” (ID# 20695) is a sign of more compassionate times. Not long ago, a cat entering with his injuries would not stand a chance in an industrial area or at a town shelter.

This sweet fellow showed up with a mangled leg at a nearby business. The kind proprietor noticed he wasn’t part of the feral colony he cares for. The shelter paid for extensive surgery to amputate Owen’s front leg, and neuter him at the same time. Owen now needs a home of his own where he can convalesce and be pampered.

If you are interested in meeting Owen, please visit the Town of Babylon Animal Shelter or call 643-9270.

The shelter is open between 10 a.m. and 3:15 pm Monday through Fridays, and from 10 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. on Saturdays.
