There are lots of cute pets available at Orange County Animal Care this week. Here are just a few of them. Let them audition to be your new best friend.
Buttons is a black-and-tan Papillon, which makes him small but mighty. Papillons are smart, sweet and energetic, and as far as they’re concerned, they can do anything a bigger dog can do—and probably do it better. They are just the right size for any home. Buttons is a 5-year-old male, which puts him in the prime of life for a Papillon. His ID number is A1116435.
Toro is a black-and-white Papillon mix who is cute as can be. He’s only a year old, still a baby, practically, so the two of you have years of good times ahead of you. This little guy’s ID number is A1116996.

Beautiful and sophisticated Tamara is of the feline persuasion. She rocks a striking tortoiseshell coat that’s short and easy to care for. At 5 years of age, she’s just getting started in life. Cats can live to be 15 to 20 years old, so Tamara is ready to be your friend for a good long time. She’s already spayed, so she’s ready to go home with you as soon as you can pick her up. Her ID number is A1111848.

Did you know? The ancestor of domestic cats is most likely the tabby-patterned African wildcat. Over thousands of years, natural genetic mutations led to different colors and patterns such as tortoiseshell, calico and the color points of the Siamese, as well as variations in coat texture and length. But all cats carry tabby genes, even if they don't look like tabbies on the outside.
