Pets of the Week February 2, 2015

Autumn
Autumn has been wishing away these chilly winter days with thoughts of a warm cozy house and a happy family to play with. She’s a dreamer with a very simple heartfelt desire to be a part of a loving home. Autumn will turn 6 months old in a few short weeks, and has spent much of her puppy youth at the Greenwood County Animal Shelter. Medium-sized and smart as a whip, she has learned lots of fun tricks and games, as well as becoming a wonderful puppy playmate with other dogs. She even tries to play with cats, although some finicky felines may not appreciate her idea of fun. Autumn is a beautiful mix of Plott Hound and Labrador and she has a thick, short red brindle coat. She is very well-mannered on walks and at events and she loves to play with children. Autumn is an eternal optimist and she knows that spring is on its way! With sunny days ahead, the perfect family must be out there looking for a fun pup with all the love in the world to give.

Poptart
Far more than just a pretty face, Poptart is the perfect pick-me-up. This quiet and demure feline almost seems to blush when you look her way. Her short coat is caught somewhere in between Tabby and Calico, so she sports stripes and splashes of brown, orange, grey, and white. Her eyes glow emerald green and catch the attention of all new visitors. Poptart is a master muffin-maker, always pawing away with delight when people come to see her. It’s impossible to be worried or upset for long with this 1 year old kitty by your side. A few minutes of affection form this beautiful cat and all the stress of the day just melts away with the sound of her soft purr. Poptart is an easy-keeper with good litter box manners and a prim and clean nature. She could snuggle her way into any type of household and seems very fit to be an inside kitty cat. A visit with Poptart may be a great way to start your day, but the lucky family who gets to adopt this little lady has a lifetime of love to look forward to.

Dempsey
It’s hard to take your eyes off this charmer. Dempsey has earned his dreamboat status and can’t wait to be a part of a new family. He takes great care to keep is thick tan coat clean, and he’s already house trained. At 5 years old, he is past many of the pesky puppy training issues, but Dempsey is a frisky pooch and loves to run in the yard and go on long walks. A McDreamy mix of Shepherd and Chow Chow, loyalty and devotion run deep with this handsome canine. Dempsey is a medium-sized dog and will be able to thrive in large or small homes. Dempsey plays well with other pets, but seems more focused on pleasing people. He is well mannered with children of all ages and will be a wonderful addition to a loving family. Dempsey is ready to make his grand debut with a forever home he can call all his own.

Carly
Carly is a modern gal on a mission to become your new BFF. She has lots to say and loves to ”talk” about all the latest gossip, and she would like nothing more than to meow the day away in a warm lap. At 11 months old this teenager is as sweet as can be, and has learned how to keep her toys picked up and her litter box tidy. She may spend a lot of time primping her black and white Tuxedo coat, but that’s a small price to pay for style. Carly is a friendly, outgoing, people-pleaser who always wants to impress everyone she meets. She’s a very happy feline who loves to purr and rub on visitors. Her all-time favorite thing in the whole wide world is a good scratch under her little round chin. Carly is ready to celebrate her big birthday bash soon and would really like a family to share in all the fun. Love and a forever home are all this pretty girl needs to make her life complete and Carly just can’t wait to be your new best friend.

Peter
Perfectly personifying puppy power, Peter is just about the niftiest pup you will meet. He’s 7 months old and a bit of a flirt, with a weakness for giving kisses and playing with every pet and person that he meets. It’s like he thinks he’s throwing the world’s best party and everyone is invited! Peter is a medium sized American Staffordshire terrier mix, with just a bit more growing left to do, so he will fit right into most sized homes as long as plenty of play and exercise is provided. This puppy loves other dogs and would thrive in a loving home with other pets to play with.

Kanga
Kanga has grown by leaps and bounds from the tiny feral kitten she was when her journey began. Now a beautiful 1 year old feline, she is ready to settle down and share the next chapter in her story with a caring family all her own. Kanga is as loving and gentle as her namesake from the classic Pooh tales, and she always seems to find the best spots to cuddle in. Although Kanga does wonderfully with other pets and with children, she likes to take things slow when she settles into new surroundings. She loves to show off her irresistibly soft brown tabby coat, and will “talk” in mews and chirps to get your attention. Kanga loves to perch up high to get the best view of all the potential families that come in to visit and she keeps her kennel spotless to show just how well she will behave in her new home. Kanga is a truly special cat with a wealth of love to give her forever family, and she’s ready to go home today and begin her new life with you.

Carter
Carter is a spunky pup with a friendly, adventurous spirit. He’s just 11 months old and is happy to play with each and every person he meets. He loves to romp through the yard in search of hidden tennis balls and stashes of toys, but is polite enough not to dig holes to find buried treasure. Carter has a sleek dark brindle coat that is easy to keep clean and he plays well with other dogs. He isn’t a fan of cats, so he needs a home without any felines. Carter is an active dog with drive that would be great for jogging, hiking, or epic games of fetch in the back yard. He’s a go-anywhere, do-anything kind of companion who is ready to explore the world with his new family. He’s all set to head out to discover new territory; all he needs is a home base and a few trusty companions who are ready for a life changing adventure with an amazing forever friend.

Cranberry
Quiet as a mouse, you would never expect how much affection could pour out of one little black cat. Cranberry is filled to the brim with more love than she could ever expend, so she’s looking for a family to lavish her attention on. Cranberry is only a year old, but has a gentle and easy soul. She dotes on other pets and would adore a home with other animals to cuddle with. Cranberry is a picture perfect example of a well-mannered house cat; her litter box stays tidy and she loves to make tiny nests out of her blankets. Solid black with a tiny white star on her chest, Cranberry is beautiful inside and out. Her ideal home is anywhere you are because she knows the true value of a warm, loving family. Make Cranberry a part of your lives today and add all the love and happiness you could ever hope for, to your home.
