Pets of the week: Big Blackjack and tiny Peanut are ready to join your family – MLive.com

JACKSON, MI -- The Jackson County Animal Shelter, 3770 Spring Arbor Road, has many pets available for adoption.

Here are two of them.

Blackjack is a 5-year-old black-and-white Staffordshire mix. He has a big deep bark but really is a sweet boy. He is working on walking on the leash and trying to be house-broken.

Peanut is a super affectionate female 2-year-old brown tiger cat. She is small as her name implies and her big gold eyes are captivating.

A meet-and-greet with a dog is mandatory. A cat room walk-through is available to test reaction. The dog adoption fee is $150 for medium and large dogs and $200 for puppies and small dogs, which includes vaccinations, microchip and sterilization.

Cat adoption fees are $60 for one cat, $80 for two, which includes applicable tests, vaccines and spay/neutering.

Visiting the shelter is always best, but other adoption resources include online applications at https://www.co.jackson.mi.us/2302/Our-Adoptable-Animals, faxing 517-780-4750 or emailing animalshelter@mijackson.org.
