At just 8 months old Venus has keen eyes and ears, but mostly she’s keen on you; she loves to play, but will quickly abandon her pursuits to run to your side and give gentle kisses. Her potential is limitless and her willingness to please is instinctive, with just a little time and training she’ll polish up to a perfect family dog.

Maybe she was trying to see her cousins in Key West when she escaped from her cage and climbed up on the roof –the famous cats at the Hemingway mansion, the ones with 6-toes, just like her. No matter, tiny Myrtle and her big white mitten feet are safely back in her cage now, where she stays busy being the exemplary one-year-old lady cat that she is, and keeping the 6-toe white mittens as clean and sweet as the rest of her, which is very clean and sweet indeed.

He’s wildly enthusiastic and sweetly cooperative; an exuberant American Bulldog mix kid who runs circles in the rain for the sheer joy of feeling the wetness, then trots quietly back to his kennel at your bidding. His name is Rodney, and at 2 years old he offers all that American Bulldogs are known for — he’s smart, fun and social, playful and tolerant with children, and ready to bond with you as your confident, lifelong companion.

Connect the dots on his legs, down low where the tiger stripes turn into spots like a miniature ocelot, and you’ll begin to feel the pleasure that is Raymond. He’s a grand example of how elegant a tabby can be, a sleek velvet young friend, always ready to snuggle but never in your face. Raymond was found in Ware Shoals, and never was there a more exquisitely soft stray — touch him and you’ll see.
