Pets of the Week January 30, 2012


She’s charmingly bashful at first, but when you’re already housetrained and beautifully mannered like Maci, there’s no reason to be shy! This gentle Lab/Hound mix is as tender-hearted as they come. At 4 years young Maci’s an ideal family dog — she’s adoring and trustworthy with kids, gets along fine with other pets, and is ready to show you her very own brand of loyalty. Maci’s easy to care for and already spayed; take her home with you today and shower her with attention, then bask in the abundant affection of this flawless this new friend.


Sink your fingers into his luxurious deep-pile coat and you’ll feel his purr — as quiet, strong, and gentle as the rest of him. Auto is a 3-year-old man of a cat; big, beautiful and laid back; he showed up at a home off Laurens Highway and turned himself in to the human world; life on the road didn’t suit him, his impeccable manners were going to waste and his extraordinary jewel-green eyes were unappreciated. Auto wants a home of his own where he can be your daily ally; and if kids, other cats, and/or dogs are included well so much the better. Come see what a clean companion a handsome man cat can be, and how soft a solid new friend can feel — especially one named Auto.

Pets of the Week January 25, 2012


This little rascal’s impeccably housetrained, and she can proudly “sit” and “shake” too — the tender loving education her early foster mother invested in her made Darla a pure delight of a family dog! She’s a fun, affectionate, almost one-year-old Doberman mix who exemplifies the loyal companion-dog breeding Dobie’s are known for. Gentle Darla’s black and tan beauty is only outshone by her happy disposition; she adores kids, loves other dogs and thinks cats are great, too. She’s easy to care for and civilized as can be; able to live in almost any home setting, as long as you give her the playtime she needs, and the human commitment she craves. Come meet this young paragon of home-and-family devotion; Darla’s all but done growing, however her heart knows no bounds, and she’s ready to give her unlimited love to you.


Mya is a 10-month-old brown tabby with hypnotic emerald green eyes, who is an affectionate friend to all. Mya can be coy at first, and after she’s had her fun teasing and flirting with you, she’ll quickly thank you for having fun with her. Mya was found as a formerly “lost” cat who wandered up to a home and that person kindly brought her to the animal shelter. It’s hard to believe such a cute, well-mannered and friendly cat would would find herself in such a situation! This cute little girl is spayed and ready to go home today!

Myctophobia begins Fundraising and Pre-Production

Bryan Wolford, from the Drunken Zombie Podcast and director of the short Whispers (see it on youtube) is preparing a new horror short for your entertainment. Thought I was going for a Cryptkeeper line like Inter-tainment, didn’t you? :) Check out the press release below. But more importantly, help get this project off the ground: http://www.indiegogo.com/Myctophobi – Donate now.

“Freakwolf Productions is happy to announce that their upcoming short film Myctophobia begins production in February as part of the short film compilation The Collective Volume 4. The theme of all the films on The Collective Volume 4 is emotions. Writer/Director Bryan Wolford was given Fear and while researching different phobias Bryan settled on Myctophobia which is labeled as a Fear of Darkness. He then crafted a story about Kelly who has a fear of the dark and while at home by herself the lights go out. She soon finds herself bombarded by sights and sounds that only strengthen her fear of the dark. Is all of it really happening or only in her head? The Collective Volume 4 is scheduled to premiere at the
Days Of The Dead convention (www.daysofthedead.net) on July 6th -July 8th in Indianapolis, Indiana.

With Myctophobia we want to bring a great atmospheric story to your screen. Sure blood and guts are fun sometimes but we want our viewers to feel Kelly’s dread in their stomachs. We will prove that you don’t need a big budget to produce  big scares. We want to bring that fear of darkness to life in front of your eyes and make you start to worry when you shut your lights off at night that you get a small pit in your stomach and try to convince yourself that the noise you just heard  was only the cat in the living room. Wait . . . do you even have a cat?

The project is currently fund raising through Indie Go Go in the hopes of raising a small amount of money to make sure the cast and crew gets a little pocket change out of the experience and to help pay for some special effects for the film. All of the filming with be done over a weekend in late February thus keeping the costs low. Anyone can donate to the project through the Indie Go Go page and receive incentives like signed copies of The Collective Volume 4, an invite to the cast and crew screening, and a cast and crew exclusive t-shirt. Info for donations can be found at IndieGoGo.Com/Myctophobia.

The main character of Kelly will be played by Kitsie Duncan. Kitsie has gained a dedicated following in the Indiana horror scene as a scream queen in numerous horror films and helps her husband Chris Jay in a producer role for their production company Darkrider Studios (www.darkriderstudios.com) which produces their own films as well as providing multiple media services. She was a producer and actress in the film Lethal Obsession which has made the rounds at
horror film festivals and horror conventions across the country.”

Pets of the Week – January 9, 2012


Antonio Banderas meet your match! Our dreamy Zorro’s a manly-muscular Chihuahua/Terrier mix who dances delightfully when you meet him, then brandishes his handsome grin and full body wag for good measure. Affectionate 3 1/2 year young Zorro was turned in by his owner; he’s fun, friendly, responsive, and forever happy. He adores being petted and held — but enjoys a good race around the yard or nice leash walk, too. Zorro loves the ladies but should be tested with other males dogs; his housetraining’s in progress, and his short haired coat makes him easy care (don’t let him hear he’s small.) Come unmask your future with this lovingly loyal little bandit today; Zorro will steal your heart and make you glad he did


She’s a little doll in every way, a shiny girl full of tender warmth and playful perfection. Although at 11 months old she’s just a kid herself, your little ones will love playing with her — she’ll shower them with snuggle-purrs, then find herself a quiet spot when her attention isn’t needed. Dixie was turned in because her owner was ill; now she’s here keeping her cage and box so clean they looked unused, no fooling. Dixie’s done growing and will always be small, she loves being indoors and out, gets along beautifully with other cats, and is ready to make your happy home even happier. If you want a little pixie with a heart that beats just for you, come meet our delightful little Dixie.
