Ghostbusters 2016

Official Site: GhostBusters.com/ghostbusters-2016/

Starring: Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones, Chris Hemsworth, Neil Casey

Synopsis:
ghostbusters_2016_watermarked_batch02_05Ghostbusters 2016 starts with Erin Gilbert, Abby Yates, Jillian Holtzmann, and Patty Tolan getting together as Ghostbusters. There is a sudden increase in spectral activity and intensity. As the Ghsotbusters visit each site, they find remnants of some kind of device that appears to be drawing the ghosts more fully into the material world.

Turns out there is a person placing lures out at hotspots along ley lines in the city. All to the purpose of thinning the barrier between the material and spiritual planes. It is up to the Ghostbusters to stop them.

TL;DR Glad the story is not a clone of the original, but the juvenile humor made it fall flat for me.

LucyLucy is 13-years-old, very calm and quiet, and a bit bashful. It’s understandable that at her age and stage in life, to find herself in an animal shelter is unsettling. But she is learning to adapt to change and showing a bit more of her sweet personality each day. She likes to snuggle in blankets and curl in a lap because that feels safe to her. She needs a quiet home to enjoy the rest of her happy years. Visit Lucy and allow her gracious spirit to open your heart.

Pets of the Week July 11, 2016

Dill
Dill appears to be a young, mixed Carolina Dog. He is medium-sized, has the tell-tale tall ears, well-developed chest, and tucked up belly that are signature features of the breed. Another indication is that he’s a bit bashful. After learning that you’re a trustworthy soul, he will craftily sneak kisses and retreat to watch for your reaction. He finds security and comfort in order and calm. Allowing him to be in his comfort zone will help him to naturally and easily learn to step outside of it. Like a true puppy dog, he loves toys and to run around the yard. This young and active guy needs plenty of room to romp and play. Matched with the right person, Dill will be an amazing and loyal companion dog.

Munchie
Petite and delicate Munchie is as beautiful of a cat as there can be. Her apple green eyes are mesmerizing and her multi-colored coat of yellow, tan, and orange, with contrasting black tabby stripes, make her a visual stand-out in any crowd. Couple her looks with her laid back and loving personality and this cat is the whole package! She likes other cats and dogs and people of all ages. Munchie is a turn-key pet, if there ever was one.

Pets of the Week July 4, 2016

Willie
3-year-old Willie is a Border Collie mix who loves people of all ages. This Camp Good Dog graduate is a “ladies’ man” at heart and fancies female doggy companionship. True to his breed, this herder by nature pooch does not think of cats as friends. He is a laid back family guy who wants kids to play with and a lap to rest on. Regular walks and involvement with his human friends will make a wonderful home life for Willie and family both.

Rupert
Rupert was born with a backwards front leg and an unique personality to match. He believes there is no need that he share his life with other animals because this smart cat knows he’s animal enough for all. And being the quirky cat genius that he is, too much activity and children, make him feel anxious. A calm home to serve as background for his center stage antics would be a dream come true for Rupert. An open mind and a big heart is all this guy needs to reward you with a most interesting kitty relationship you will know.

Pets of the Week June 27, 2016

BoBo is a year-and-a-half old Weimaraner mix who is highly athletic with a lot of energy. This breed is not for just anyone, no matter how cute and expressive their faces may be. Weimaraners can be demanding dogs who require strong leadership and a lot of exercise in order to maintain an even temperament. Though they are active and require a lot of outdoor time, Weimaraners expect to live indoors with the family and soak up as much affection as they can get. For outdoor oriented families who have experience with dogs, Bo can be an excellent companion and exercise buddy.

SnickersSnickers is a four to five-month-old panther black kitten with a perfect white circle on his chest. He adores other cats and especially playing with other kittens. He’s a “pounce machine” who’s mastered several effective wrestling moves involving keen aerial attacks, nicknamed the “jump and smack” technique. He is growing into a slick and sleek young man of a cat. If his acrobatic antics don’t entertain you, his dreamy golden yellow eyes will hypnotize you.
