5-year-old Brinly is a dependable, good-natured, loyal companion dog. Athletic and agile, with finely tuned reflexes, she should have moderate daily exercise to maintain her splendid muscle tone. Companionship is even more important, and extensive ongoing involvement with a family or person is key for this loving and enthusiastic pooch. Brown brindled Brinly already knows how to fetch, drop the ball, and sit down. Not only is she smart, she is also a joy to be around. She will just as readily romp with the family as come inside and flop on the floor to rest. This all-around awesome dog would bring fun and joy to any home.

Named after the historic Egyptian ruler, this kitty Cleopatra came to the shelter as a lost cat who could not find her way home. Clothed with a licorice black coat, this fluffy feline’s favorite pastime is napping. Although that is how every cat enjoys spending their time, Cleopatra takes resting seriously, just like any queenly ruler would. This elegant green-eyed girl speaks with a squeak, rather than the ordinary meow. But, again, she’s a queen and everything she does is unique and special. She loves to rub against people’s legs with her feathery soft fur, like she’s giving them a fluffy buff and polish. All are accepted in her royal court, unless it’s a dog. She insists any and all dogs stay outside and as far away from her as possible. She is a queen, you know.

5-year-old, black-and-white Tuxedo cat, Gizmo, comes from a large family of cats. At an early age he learned that respect for mama is most important, and since he still lives with mama, he always behaves like a perfect gentleman. He whiling away the hours at the shelter “watching TV,” which is essentially looking at the birds flutter and fly outside the window. Gizmo is a cuddler through and through, enjoying to curl up in a lap or on the couch next to you. There he could watch real TV and be grateful that he finally has a home of his own.

Lovely Lucy is a young, medium-sized mixed breed dog. And as the ultimate family dog, this mixed breed excels where the purebred lacks. Drawing from a broader, more diverse gene pool, her intensity is softer than her pedigreed cousins, her drives and compulsions mercifully muted. Lucy’s loyalty, warmth, and deep desire to please, however, remain as fiercely intact as any dog you could choose to create. Her short, tan-and-white coat is easy to care for and her big brown eyes will melt anyone’s tender heart. Come meet this perfect indoor/outdoor dog and let her show you how she can make your life better.

If a talking cat is what you want, then please adopt Charlie. This young black-and-white cat meows, talks, and chats with every passerby. He does it with such passion that he clearly has discovered the secrets of the universe and is desperately trying to share them with anyone who will listen. Either that or he just wants a treat. Charlie is a people-cat and is particularly particular about having other animal company around. He feels that he has enough personality to fill an entire home and wonders why would anyone need another pet. Scratch behind his ears, rub his silky and soft belly, and enjoy those few moments of silence because once it stops, it chatty Charlie time once again.

One-year-old, former lost dog, Koal, is brimming with boyish charm and enthusiasm. Shy at first, this raven black, Retriever beauty becomes overwhelmed by his own puppy glee, throwing timidity to the wind, and expressing his zest for life. In his excitement, Koal simultaneously runs and wiggles around the yard, like an out-of-water, flip-flopping fish. However, when he has his belly rubbed he stays as still and relaxed as a meditating zen master. Visit this super and sweet kid of a dog and he’ll teach you how to trade in sweating the small stuff for embracing the fun of life.

B?o knows. He knows that his laid-back personality and drop-dead good looks will assure him a home with an adoring family of fans. This 2-year-old attention hog knows that he offers the purrfect distraction from the silly worries of the world. What better way to forget your woes than to gaze into his hypnotic butterscotch-colored eyes? It has also been found that time spent brushing his long, silky hair is an extra source of relaxation — for both the brusher and the brushee. Spend time with this suave and sophisticated superstar of a cat and you’ll know that Bo’s the one.
