Pet of the Week: Jett

Jett a very well-behaved boy

Jett is a 5-year-old male with a lovely black coat and green eyes. Jett was found outside and a nice couple turned him into the East Greenwich Animal Protection League. It was discovered that Jett had a bite mark on him so, for protocol, he has to be seperated from other animals for several months. But Jett can do that at someone's home, so long as there are no other animals in the home. Jett is such a loving boy who loves to be petted and is very gentle. Come see Jett and all the other cats and dogs in need of forever homes on Sundays between 10:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. at EGAPL's Adopt-A-Pet Open House located at Greenwich Bay Animal Hospital.
