Lucy is a 2 year old American classic sweetheart who dreams of hearing the words, “Lucy! You’re home!” She looks like a Boxer, but sings like a Hound. Whatever the case, this good girl knows to use her inside voice and save her balladeering for the out of doors. She loves to play fetch with tennis balls, but her version of the game is to run after the ball and then keep it, leaving you standing in the sun watching her have a good time. She’s a large-sized gal who’s most unique physical attribute is the small cluster of spots on her back that form a paw print. When she buries her head into your chest and tries to fit into your lap, you’ll wonder if trying to convince her of her size is worth the effort. Lucy can make the worst day better, and when she smiles at you, you’ll find yourself smiling right back.

Pepper is a 4 month old kitten with a spicy name and a fiery personality to match. This playful little guy will use whatever object he finds as a prop for his amusement. He loves to play with the broom as you try to sweep, or pick a fight with his blanket, which is fruitless for him but fun to watch. To quiet him down, simply pick him up and cradle him like a baby. He will realize it’s time to cuddle, look up at you with his hypnotic green eyes full and invite you to snuggle into his fluffy, baby soft, orange tabby fur. Although consider yourself warned, once you pick him up, you’ll never want to let him go.

Darla is a darling of a dog who loves all people. And her appreciation and desire for companionship is solely for people, not other dogs. At three-years-young, this hazel brown Retriever mix loves giving attention as much as receiving it and would be the perfect doggie BFF. She readily admits to being a toy hoarder and can spend hours alone playing with her amassed playthings. Full of joyful energy and spunk, Darla is entertaining and will bring a lot of fun into someone’s life. Visit and spend time with this one-sided lop-eared love and let her show you how to really have fun.

Regina is a gorgeous medium-haired Diluted Calico. Her wispy soft, tri-colored coat feels like she was rubbed down with a dryer sheet. She’s two-years-old and a wee bit shy; but don’t mistake her introverted persona as lacking in love. Quite the opposite, she thoroughly enjoys ear scratches and any other kind gestures of affection. She just prefers to choose when she wants held or to sit in a cozy lap. A quiet, low-key home is where she would be happy and thrive most. Give her space and she’ll reward you with her trust and love. This former stray is ready for a stable, long-term, and loving home. Visit Petsmart in Greenwood to get a peek at this rare feline jewel.

Blaze is a three-month-young, female Plott Hound and Spaniel mix and a literal burst of energy. She runs hard. She plays hard. She lives hard. Fortunately for her future family, she recently graduated from Camp Good Dog with full honors and has learned some of the “tricks” of being a mature, well-behaved doggie. As a young, progressive pup, she does not discriminate on who she befriends. Dogs and cats alike are both loved with equal acceptance, as well as the occasional visiting squirrel. Blaze will light up your home with love and laughter and that is a deal no one should pass up.

A five-month-old Brown Tabby kitten is Oscar. Unlike his Sesame Street namesake, this Oscar is full of fuzzy fun and prefers a couch to a trash can. His medium-length coat is sure to be stunning after he’s fully grown and the weather is cooler. For now, he looks a little like he took a rolling dive across a carpeted floor and has been infused with static electricity. And don’t even mention his ear hair. The potential uses for that attribute are endless: catching flies, tickling human ankles and shins, providing shade for smaller pets, and sweeping the floor. But his best feature is his big heart. Oscar is one amusing kitty and guaranteed to bring joy, entertainment, and jocularity to someone’s life.
