Creature Corner: July 4, 2013

Tommy

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.

Oreo and Sandy

Oreo and Sandy love the morning sun. Both are about 2 years old and get along just fine with most other four-leggeds, cats included. Oreo is a male black Chihuahua/Boston terrier-mix. He is currently in training school, and has only earned As. Good boy, Oreo. Sandy is a female tan Chihuahua/Jack Russell-mix. She will greet you each and every day with her favorite toy in her mouth, ready for play and love. Both are available for adoption to a home with plenty of sunshine and love.
Tommy

This big boy loves to have room to stretch. Tommy is a young adult male cat looking for a window seat to enjoy the breeze on his fur, and watch a few squirrels in between cat naps. Tommy is a quiet boy, litter box-trained, and ready for his very own home.

Heidi
Heidi loves a window seat, too. She tends to be a loner, preferring to nap away the day. She is about 5 years old and a tortoiseshell. Heidi is also a quiet girl, and box trained.
