Patch Pets: Meet Ella and Kiki

The Monmouth County SPCA has many animals looking for forever homes.

Ella is a 10-month-old boxer/terrier mix described as happy and outgoing. She loves showing affection and gets along with other dogs. Although Ella is deaf, she does respond to hand signals and will adapt to your household and family activities.

Kiki has been at the SPCA for a year with her son after being transferred from an overcrowded shelter elsewhere. She's a gentle, friendly and loving cat who is great with people as well as other cats and dogs.
