Pet Watch from the director- 11/21/10

As the cold weather rolls in so do many animals looking for their Forever Homes. If you are looking for a friend to cuddle with on these cold nights, come to the Humane Society and meet some wonderful animals that would fit that spot on your couch perfectly. Which is what the following family did and from the sounds of their happy tail story, it was a perfect fit for all of them.

“About a year and a half ago, I was perusing through Petfinder and stumbled upon one-year-old James. Not being much of a cat person, I went to the Humane Society just to see if he was as sweet as the picture. Lo and behold, when we went up to him, he reached out his paw through the cage, almost as if to say, "I'm here! I'm yours!" We fell in love with him immediately and took him home that day. We loved the organization so much that we went back a few months later and adopted a new sister kitty for him! They are the best of friends and as sweet as can be. I may have not been a cat person to begin with, but James and his sister have certainly converted me!”

Our shelter has many other cats, kittens, puppies and dogs that are looking to fall in love with their new families. Chloe, a special feline, is our longest resident cat. She has been at the Humane Society since April and though she is doing well in our cat playroom with the other cats, she would blossom in a new home. She is a 2 year old dilute tortoiseshell mix. She is spayed, negative for FELV and FIV, current on her vaccines and only $10 to adopt.

Dylan, a two and a half year old black Lab/Great Dane mix, is super sweet. Even though he is over 50 pounds, he thinks he should be a lap dog. He loves to sit on the picnic table behind the shelter and supervise all of the other dogs. He has a lot of energy and loves children. He is neutered, heartworm negative, current on his vaccines and $50 to adopt.
