Pets of the Week June 20, 2016

Neil
Neil is a young Shepherd blend whose yellow tan coat, black muzzle, and brown ears make him a visual standout. Dogs and children are his favorite companions and he has the perfect amount of energy for easy training and fun playing. It’s possible that he did not enjoy much fun with people during his earlier life, so he performs his own people “vetting” before revealing his silly, warm, and cuddly side. Rolling and stretching his body on the grass is one of his favorite activities because it feels so darn good. Neil is ready for a new home and hoping for the person or family who will come and sweep him off his paws.

Monkey
Monkey was discovered strolling around by herself, whether she was lost or left isn’t known. But this independent kitty didn’t seem bothered much because she likes doing her thing, and she expects others to do theirs. Her tortoiseshell coat is splotched with sunrise orange, onyx black, and ivory white. It’s a unique coloring blend that serves to either camouflage her when she prefers to be unseen or spotlight her when she wants love and attention. When the spirit moves her, she will brush your ankles with her soft, silky coat as she weaves “circle eights” around your legs. Monkey would be happy as an indoor/outdoor kitty, but watch out. She likes to explore and may take to the road again. At the end of the day, a comfy lap to settle in for cuddles is really what this little princess wants.

Pets of the Week June 13, 2016

Millie
Millie the silly pup loves to romp in the yard, playfully chasing birds, and being at one with nature. This brown and white Terrier mix is an independent pooch who loves the outdoors. She would make a great hiking, jogging, walking, and ball chasing companion. A big fenced-in yard, where she can freely run, would be ideal, and frequent walks in the park or woods would be terrific. Having one ear that stands straight up, and the other that lies flat to her head, she brings a smile and a laugh to everyone who sees her. She’s currently enrolled in Camp Good Dog For Kids and doing very well learning to sit, stay, and walk on a leash. This high-spirited gal will bring fun to your life and love to your heart.

Maple
Less than a year-old Maple is as sugary sweet as the syrup she’s named for. She’s a day-brightener kind of cat. When she’s not playing with jingly, dangly toys and entertaining herself and others, she’s resting on her perch observing the world with amusement. Maple is the type of cat who allows fun to happen and if the mood dips a bit, she’s more than happy to help bring it back up. She can find the positive in every situation and is essentially an all-around awesome kitty. Bring this this gorgeous Tortie cat into your home and your life will be a lot brighter.

Warcraft

Trailer

Official Site: WarcraftMovie.com

Starring: Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Toby Kebbell, Ben Schnetzer, Robert Kazinsky, Clancy Brown

Synopsis:
Orcs travel from their dying world to Azaroth. They are using a mystical power source called the Fell that feeds on living things. They need to gather many humans, demi-humans, etc on the Azaroth side to bring over the rest of their population.

The Human kingdon at Stormwind is opposing the Orcs and receive no support from the other races of Azaroth. The Humans seek the aid of their Guardian (think Gandolf) of Azaroth. The Humans end up capturing a Half-Orc for information on their new enemy.

The Humans wage an attack with their remaining forces to stop the Orcs from opening a gate to their homeworld and prevent the rest of the Orcs from coming through.

TL;DR Meh. All over the place plot. Pure setup for a franchise without good storytelling. Save your money and wait for it to hit Netflix or SyFy.

Pets of the Week June 6, 2016

Ben
3-year-old Ben was a lost dog found by Animal Control. He appears to be a Rough Coat Collie mix, although more importantly what we do know is that he is simply a wonderful dog. This laid-back fella loves everyone and is the epitome of what “going with the flow” looks like. His gorgeous, thick black coat makes him a standout in any crowd. Ben is a herding dog who is sensitive and intelligent, has an undying loyalty and amazing ability to foresee his owner’s needs. He is an ideal family dog and companion.

Gatsby
Gatsby is the “Chatty Kathy” of the Adoption Center. In fact, he was awarded a plaque for his achievement. In hindsight he should have been named Lassie because the tone and urgency of his talking would lead you to believe that, indeed, there is a Timmy is in a well. Gatsby is a big guy, 5-years-old, and spots a handsome gray and white short coat. He is a social mingler and enjoys the company of other cats. Visit Gatsby and help us understand what he’s trying to say. Perhaps he’s simply expressing his want for a forever home.

Pets of the Week Friday, May 30, 2016

Brinly
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.

Cleopatra
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.
