SMITHTOWN, NY — Tomathena Maria, a 3-year-old female, and Donatello, a 3-year-old male, are the Smithtown Animal Shelter's Pets of the Week. Both are domestic shorthairs.

"These two siblings were brought to the Animal Shelter after their previous owner fell on hard times and could no longer care for them," the shelter wrote. "Tomathena and Donatello have been through so much together and they rely on one another for support and love. With people, they are affectionate and gentle-natured. We would love for these two to stay together in a new home where they can continue to comfort each other."

There are currently a variety of male and female cats & kittens available to adopt or foster.

The Smithtown Animal Shelter's primary concern is finding the perfect home for each animal that finds his/her way to it. The Animal Control Officers and kennel attendants at the Smithtown Animal Shelter will go out of their way to ensure both the rescued and rescuer are made for one another. If you have other pets, you can arrange to bring your four-legged family member into the shelter or they can set up an at-home meet & greet to see how your prospective new addition does with other family members, pets or the household itself.

The shelter is also seeking foster volunteers. Foster parents provide temporary care for cats, kittens and dogs in their own homes. Some animals need as little as two weeks of care, while others may need care for an extended time.
