Pet of the Week: Meet Jack-O-Lantern

ZANESVILLE, Ohio – The holiday season is upon us and the perfect
edition to any gathering is a new furry friend. The Animal Shelter
Society Pet of the Week is a friendly, active cat named
Jack-O-Lantern. Stephanie Hill, with the Animal Shelter Society, says
Jack-O-Lantern gets along well with other cats and enjoys playing
with people of all ages.

“He’s been here
with us a little while, since around Halloween—that’s how he got
his name. He was a stray and we think he’s about three years old.
He’s very friendly; he would make a great pet if you’re looking
for a new cat for your home for this holiday season.”

The Animal Shelter
Society is also gearing up for the holiday season by hosting special
programs and fundraiser throughout the month and into January.

“Starting on
Monday, through the end of the year we’re running our Eight Cats of
Hanukkah special. And so, we will have eight cats featured that will
have a $20 adoption fee—so, watch our Facebook page starting on
Sunday for us to reveal those. And then, January 11th
we’re holding our Annual Comedy Night—down at Bryan
Place—Caturday Night Live. We do have tickets for sale here; those
are $20.”

The adoption fee to
bring Jack-O-Lantern home is $60. For more information or to purchase
tickets to Caturday Night Live, contact the Animal Shelter Society
located on Newark Road in Zanesville.
