Creature Corner: April 25, 2013

Sunny

Reunited this week was Ally, the adventurous yellow Lab. Maggie, the senior yellow Lab is still missing. Please help in the search. A reward is offered.

Adopted was Gypsy, our blonde cockapoo-terrier mix to the absolute best mom in the world. Paws up to you Gypsy. And two of Sunny’s kittens, Ashley and Jinx, both calicos, are in the safe arms of their forever mom.

Sunny

That leaves Mama Sunny and two babies, Willow, our torty, and Boomer, an orange tabby. Come on in to ARF to visit and get your kitty playtime.

The name says it all: Jezabelle, the diva of the cattery. The eyes will draw you in. She’s a bit shy, until she warms up to you. She will allow you to look and touch, but this diva lives to have her own space to show her beauty. She absolutely loves a perch to view the great outdoors.

Shannon

Hey everyone. I’m Shannon. A small Chihuahua with the best ears ever! I am about 5 years old, female, potty trained, and would love a lap to sit in all day long. I am friendly with all other dogs, and a bit uncertain about the felines. Someone has to have a lap for me to enjoy. Oh, and as you can see, I love the California sun.

Oreo
Oreo is a young male chi mix that just loves attending school! He is currently enrolled in Mt. Pawley Tech and earns A’s each day. He loves to sit on your lap, or even next to you while at your desk. Oreo is great with other canines, and a bit inquisitive with the feline crowd.
