Last week in Days of Our Nine Lives, the ARF cats were missing those who were recently adopted.

Bobbie

Bobbie: Have you guys heard what our ARF humans are doing now?

Sadie

Sadie: Trying to find us forever homes?

Bobbie: Oh, they’re always doing that. 

Sadie: I know. But they need to work harder in getting humans in to meet us! 

George: I think they work pretty hard at that. Hopefully the Creature Corner in the Town Crier helps. 

George

Bobbie: Yes, yes, yes! But I am talking about the Pets of the Year contest ARF is having to raise funds to get medical care for pets whose families cannot afford it.  

Mr. Gray

Mr. Gray: Oh boy! So, I could be a pet of the year?

Bobbie: Sorry, no. Only pets that have forever families can enter. 

Sadie: Wow. Now I’m really sad about not having my own family. I just don’t get it. I’m beautiful and I love to wind my way in and out of humans’ legs. Why am I still here?

Mr. Gray: Yeah! And I have the most beautiful gray hair and little white booties on my feet. Why am I still here?

Grace

Grace: And I’m a Russian Blue! Cats don’t get any more beautiful than I, and I’m super friendly on top of that!

Bobbie: None of this makes any sense, especially the fact that I’m still looking for a forever home. I’m over-the-top friendly! 

Mr. Gray: So, if humans visit ARF’s website or Facebook page, they can see photos of us? 

Bobbie: Yes, and they can learn about the contest.  

Pepper: And if we get adopted by the end of this month, we may also be in the running for pet of the year. Wouldn’t that be amazing? 

Pepper

Pepper: Amazing, wonderful, and a dream come true.  

  Will you visit ARF’s cats this weekend? Be sure to keep up with the animal antics of Days of our Nine Lives each week.  And please stop in to say hello to the entire adoptable cast at the ARF House, 26890 Hwy 243 on Saturdays 10-4 and Sundays 10-2, or by appointment M – F by calling 951-659-1122.

    Polly, our polydactyl has finally found her forever home. All six toes up to you Polly. And Boo, the Chiweenie didn’t take long to wiggle his way into the heart and arms of his new human.

    It’s puppy love! Wrap your heart around this bundle of fur that was rescued from the streets of Idyllwild. Buster Brown is a 16-week-young boxer/pit mix. Along with puppy kisses upon request, this smart boy is already in clicker training class. His first report card is A+, as the basic commands were a piece of cake for him. He is learning leash rules, and is great with all other four-leggeds, cats and dogs.

    Poppy has been adopted. Yay, for finding your forever home. Introducing the survivors from Highway 243: Catnis, the Maltese, Peeta the brown and white, and Rue, the Chihuahua-mix. For days the community and animal control tried to capture these three from the highway. Patience from our Hill community finally won out. They are now safe…
