Pet-O-Rama: Willow PLUS Upcoming Shelter EventsWeek of August 10th 2026Have a look at Willow, this week's this week's Pets of the Week at the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. She's a beautiful, all-white, short-haired, 5 year old cat with gorgeous yellow eyes. She has a cute, rounded build and face - called a "cobby" body type in cat circles. Note: The adoption fee for adult cats is normally $110, but a generous donor has sponsored Willow's adoption fee to remove any barrier for a well-matched home. For more info, and to find out about upcoming Shelter events, read the full post, listen to Pet-O-Rama at 11am Thursdays here on the pig or visit the shelter, located at 1001 Rodriguez St. in Santa Cruz and open from 11am to 6pm every day.
