Fire, a 5-year-old neutered domestic short-haired cat, is the Marshfield Area Pet Shelter Pet of the Week, featured on WDLB with sponsorship from South Car Wash and Pet Wash.
Shelter staff describe Fire as a gentle cat who loves being petted and getting attention, and who brightens up when people come to visit him. In the shelter's first-person profile for him, Fire is presented as a cat who has been through a lot and is looking for a quiet, safe home where he can settle in and be loved.
Because he is a sensitive cat, Fire needs to be the only pet in his new home. In exchange, the shelter says, he will be a devoted companion to the person who takes him in.
Fire's adoption fee has been waived in hopes of finding him a home soon.
The shelter does not hold open hours for the public to view adoptable animals. Visits are by appointment only, scheduled after an adoption application is approved. Applications are available on the Marshfield Area Pet Shelter website.
All of the shelter's animals are examined by a veterinarian, spayed or neutered and microchipped. Animals old enough also receive routine vaccinations, and a feline leukemia test is available on request.
