Last week in “Days of Our Nine Lives,” the ARF cats adjusted to New Sadie taking the spot of office cat.

New Sadie: Great news everyone! All the puppies in the litter have been adopted.

Bernard: But not I.

Pepper: That’s OK, Bernard. You are so sweet, low-energy and loving, you’ll soon find your forever home.

New Sadie: Pepper is right! Hope my forever family finds me pronto.

Tex: And don’t forget about me! I’m still hanging in, waiting for my forever family. I want one where I’m the only pet, kids would be great, and a yard where I can run and fetch balls.

New Sadie: It seems we all want the same thing, including George.

Zeus: George? Who is George?

George: I am! Don’t you remember me? I was here for quite a while, then I was adopted. But sadly, my forever mom cannot be forever. I’m so sad, but happy to see my old friends.

Mr. Gray: Welcome back, George. I see you’re still that beautiful orange color. You are just as handsome as ever.

Bernard: And he is kinda big.

New Sadie: Well, so am I.

Bear: And Zeus and I. We are all big cats.

Sadie: There is a cat for every kind of home, here at ARF.

New Sadie: So true! It’s one-stop “shopping”!
