Ready for adoption — it's back!

After a little hiatus, here is the Dutchess County SPCA Pet of the Week — Ready for adoption. What are you waiting for?

This week's featured pet:
Maddie — Calico
"Don't let the scowl fool you, this cat is really just mad about you. Knowing that first impressions are lasting impressions, this hi-jinxing calico is willing to keep you guessing about her true feelings. Known as the class clowns of the cat world, this large calico female will provide endless entertainment for the cost of just a little bit of love. Good bargain, eh?"
