“The Cutest Pet Contest is an amazing way to bring the community together all while helping the pets who need it the most,” said Denise Deisler, Jacksonville Humane Society’s CEO. “Congratulations, Raja!”

Raja was adopted from JHS in December 2021.

“He is so loving and snuggly and loves his toys and blankies,” said Elizabeth, Raja’s owner. “He also loves car rides more than anything, with the exception of his family. He is now living his best life and brings so much love and joy to our family every single day.”
