Zeus

Last week in “Days of Our Nine Lives,” ARF cats discussed the new litter of kittens.

Zeus: Wow. That was a busy Saturday. 

Bear:  There were quite a few humans here, but they didn’t visit with me.

Lulu:  It was the kittens. Everyone wants to see the kittens!

Whiskers: Well, it worked. All but one is adopted.

Zeus: I hear there is only a male tabby still looking for a forever home.

Whiskers: And because he is as cute as his siblings, he will be gone fast. 

Lulu: Most likely. Any human interested in a super cute kitten had better call ARF right away. 

Whiskers: It was also busy yesterday at the nail trim clinic.

Sadie: No kidding! It was packed solid from 8:30 a.m. til 4 p.m. It was kind of like Sadie’s Clinic earlier in June.

Pepper: I guess it is safe to say that humans should call ARF right away for several reasons: the kitten and the next Sadie’s and nail trim clinics.

Zeus: With the COVID situation, things are kind of hectic. I guess that’s why the clinics were so crowded. 

Pepper: And what about dogs? Are there any for adoption right now? 

Zeus: Not at this very moment, but that doesn’t mean a whole lot. Dogs always seem to be showing up when we least expect them. 

Pepper: And the dogs that have come to ARF have been adopted so quickly. 

Lulu: I think humans realize that having a loving four-legged friend in the home helps with their stress and anxiety.

Bear: It is a win-win for all involved. The pet gets a loving family, and the family gets some much-needed relief.  

Be sure to keep up with the animal antics of “Days of Our Nine Lives” each week. Please stop in to say hello to the entire adoptable cast at the ARF House, 26890 Highway 243 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. on Saturdays and from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. on Sundays, or by appointment Monday-Friday by calling 951-659-1122.

    Leonardo is almost 2 years old. Always open to new friendships, Leonardo will bravely welcome any four-legged that walks through the door — be it canine, or feline. He knows no enemies, as he makes sure all the new orphans at ARF are accepted and safe. A sleek short haired grey, Leonardo, along with his siblings, lost his mom shortly after birth. One by one, his brothers were all adopted. He chose to pass it on, as Mr. Mom to Dawn and Dusk, who also lost their mom and were living under a house. Leonard is a one of a kind furry friend who is at his best consoling and loving other cats and dogs.
