Pet of the Week: January 16-17

Dixie is up for adoption at Rainbow Animal Rescue. She is approximately 6 years old and has a deformed front leg. She is spayed, up to day on vaccines and heartworm negative. She would do best with a fenced yard or an owner who will only allow her out while leashed. If you are interested in adopting Dixie, go to rainbowanimalrescue.org and scroll down to the adoption application link. You can also obtain a paper application from the rescue, which is open by appointment only by calling 252-883-6413. The rescue is at 54 Dogpound Road, off 903 near the 4-H facility, first building on the right. Questions about dogs can be posted on the Rainbow Animal Rescue of NC Facebook page. There is an adoption donation which goes to veterinarian care, boarding and transportation. If you would like to help support the work of this nonprofit organization, send checks to Rainbow Animal Rescue Inc., P.O. Box 972, Roanoke Rapids, NC 27870. You can see Rainbow Animal Rescue cats at the Roanoke Rapids Petsense store.
