Mamba has lived at The Animal Shelter for 2 1/2 years! We know black cats have it hard, but how this darling love has been so overlooked is a mystery. He is one of the first to come greet visitors, and despite having reached adulthood still likes to play. He is a domestic medium hair and regular grooming will have him looking as beautiful on the outside as he is on the inside.

1 Way 2 Help: Fostering
Do you love animals, but now is not the best time for you to commit for a lifetime? You might consider providing foster care for an animal in need. Foster care helps shelters care for animals that need extra help that they can't get in a kennel. One example is The Animal Shelter's heartworm positive dogs ~ thanks to wonderful donors, they have the funding to get treated, but they must wait in line for a quiet foster home for their recovery period. Read this article about fostering. Ready to help? Visit the Shelter's volunteer page.
The Animal Shelter is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in Anniston, AL. We rely on donations and volunteers. Please visit http://theanimalshelter.net/ to help!
