NATCHEZ — Loud barks and soft meows rang out by the Corner Bar in Natchez where the Natchez-Adams County Humane Society hosted a fundraiser on Saturday. Attendees were able to shop for gallon-sized bags of spicy and regular boiled peanuts and meet some of the adoptable fur babies from the shelter.

Haley, a black and white husky mix, and her four-legged friend Becky romped around and played together in the grass. Both are close in age, around eight months old, and Haley has one brown eye and one blue.

Rennie, a caramel brown mixed breed, gratefully accepted pats and scratches behind her ears from any visitors who met her. She has been at the Humane Society for more than a year, looking for her fur-ever home.

Lotus, a gray tabby kitten, looked as though she might fall asleep while being held by Darskey McMorris, who is the shelter manager at the Natchez Adams County Humane Society.
