Creature Corner: March 10, 2016
Last week in “The Days of Our Nine Lives,” the cats and Doodlebug the terrier were discussing the wonderful possibility of finding forever families of their own.
Leia: (Peering through the cattery door window.) Hey! Did you guys hear we have another dog and two more cats?
Olivia: I think so. He’s a 12-month old, handsome German shepherd, and his name is Jake from State Farm. (Jake from State Farm enters the
cattery.)
Jake: Good morning!
Olivia: Hello, Jake from State Farm. What are you wearing?
Jake: Just my black-and-khaki fur, and a big smile on my cute face. Call me Jake. So, am I the only canine in this crowd?
Leia: Well, up until last weekend you had company, but Doodlebug accepted a gig in a forever home. Lucky pup! Hey, Jake, I’m kinda digging your one floppy ear. You’re cute, Jake, but really skinny.
Jake: Well, my story’s a sad one. All I did was wander for two weeks in Garner Valley, looking for a meal and a family. Two really nice men brought me to ARF, and now I live with a great foster. I started training last weekend, and I visited the nice vet at Sadie’s Clinic. I’ll be ready to join a forever family in
no time.
Olivia: Well, Jake, you’ve landed in a great place. You’ll find a forever family very soon, I’m certain. Leia, who are the new cats?
Leia: One is London. She is an older gal, but is so very friendly. She loves people, almost as much as Bobbie does! The other is Skye. He’s still unsure about all of us, but he’s coming around. And I must admit, he’s pretty darned handsome with his long, silky hair.
London: (Enters the room.) Hey! I’m London, and I won’t be here for long …
Join us next week to find out why London won’t be around for long.
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.
