Found as a stray in March, she was briefly adopted but returned due to her size and energetic nature.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Described as a \u201cfun and bouncy\u201d dog, Wanda still carries a puppy-like enthusiasm and enjoys running and playing. Shelter staff says she thrives on interaction and would do best with an active owner who can match her energy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Despite her spirited nature, Wanda also has a softer side. She enjoys affection, soaking up pets and offering gentle kisses during calmer moments. Staff believes she may be deaf, as she does not respond to sound and must be touched to wake her.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Due to her size, strength, and possible hearing impairment, Wanda is best suited for a home with adults or older children and teens.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Meet Tiger (A2474685)<br \/>Tiger, a 6-year-old neutered male domestic shorthair cat weighing 10 pounds, is a recent arrival after being surrendered due to a landlord issue.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">In contrast to Wanda\u2019s high energy, Tiger is calm and affectionate. He enjoys being petted\u2014especially at the base of his tail\u2014and is described as a friendly companion who would fit well into a home looking for a mature, easygoing cat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Tiger is already neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, allowing him to go home the same day he is adopted.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Both animals are fully vetted, including spay\/neuter, vaccinations, and microchipping. Adopters are only required to pay a $25 Broward County registration tag fee.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.broward.org\/Animal\/Pages\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Broward County Animal Care<\/a>, located at 2400 SW 42nd St. in Fort Lauderdale, is open daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. for adoptions.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Send your news to Parkland\u2019s #1 Award-Winning News Source,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/parklandtalk.com\/submit-news\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Parkland Talk<\/a>.
