IF you are looking for a new friend this Christmas, look no further than Hawkesbury Companion Animal Shelter.
The four-legged darlings come from The Hills, Hornsby, Hawkesbury and Penrith council areas.
But if you are looking to add to someone else's family, it's best to ask first.
You don't want to add to the thousands of abandoned pets over the Christmas period.

■ Our first cat [number 647] is a female stray domestic short hair cat who is two years old.
This little furry cat who would love a lap to call home this Christmas, currently has no name, but you can call her anything you like.
■ Our second cat [number 627] is a female domestic short hair cat, who is a placid young girl who loves watching the world go by.
You can sit on the porch and contemplate life while she keeps you company. Her name is a mystery, but she’ll let you figure it out.
