Last week in “Days of Our Nine Lives,” the ARF cats and dog Tex talked about the new cat, Mitzy.

Panther: Sad to tell you all that I have no adoption news this week.

Tex: Oh, darn it! Well, I am nice and warm at my foster’s house. Check out the new photo

Tex

of me on my comfy bed.

Panther: And we cats are so comfy here in the ARF House.

Tinkerbell: This is true, Panther, but I’d rather be with a forever family, you know, with someone to play with me.

Mr. Gray: You are so playful Tinkerbell, but I guess most kittens at 6 months are.

Tinkerbell: And I’ve been told I’m very pretty.

Tex: Yes, you’re pretty. Your silky black hair is very nice.

Mr. Gray: Tinkerbell is our fourth tuxedo cat here at ARF.

Pepper: That’s right! There are Carly, Sadie, Tinkerbell and me.

Tinkerbell

Tinkerbell: We tuxedo cats are pretty stunning.

Sadie: And always dressed for a good time!

Pepper: A good time for me would be waking up each day in my forever home.

Tex: That would be a good time for any one of us, I’m certain. Even better would be a jog, a hike or just a game of fetch, as far as I’m concerned.

Zeus: Or just a good, old-fashioned petting session.

Panther: Heck, yeah. Petting or brushing is what I dream about.

Tinkerbell: Chasing a piece of yarn! That’s what I want!

Indigo: Or lounging near a warm fireplace.  Ahhh …

Heavenly Whiskers

Bear: Just a quiet home would make me so very happy.

Heavenly Whiskers: A home to call our own.

    Mancha decided to take a little stroll, but was quickly reunited with her very worried owner. As was Harab, the friendly white Pitbull. Paws up to you both. Bentley, aka Bronson, the chocolate American Staffordshire is now in a trial home. A big bow wow for Lulu, who has finally found her forever home. It’s the week of love, and our hearts go out to the family of Greta, who passed over the rainbow bridge, the broken hearts will take a long time to heal with the loss of our special Sophie. We will always remember her smile and the way she sat so pretty.
