PETS OF THE WEEK AT
ST. CHARLES PARISH ANIMAL SHELTER

Chopper is an 8-week-old male black lab mix. When he grows up he will be a hefty 70 pounds. He is too cute, cuddly and playful.

Jack is a 2-year-old male short hair domestic cat. We call him ‘One-Eyed Jack’! When we found him it looked like another animal on the street had beaten him up. We had to remove his eye, but he is all healed now. He is very friendly and affectionate. Come see Jack and all his friends at the shelter.
