Pets of the Week November 4, 2013

Honey
Our 2-year-old Hound/mix “Honey” is a natural cure for all that ails, a golden companion who’ll sit, shake and lie down for a treat, and a purely delightful playmate who thinks a tennis ball and tug-of-war are the bee’s knees. Gentle Honey was found stray, endowed with a refined spirit so impressive that calling her sweet’s an understatement; she’s clean, cooperative and gets along beautifully with other canines — kids too — and is ready to pour on affection as your forever family member. A teaspoon will never be enough of her immeasurable friendship, take Honey’s gleaming heart home today.

Cindy
She’s a tortoise shell cat extraordinaire, spun of silky gold and soft onyx, with a 24-carat heart that never stops showing how “into you” she really is. Six-year-old Cindy’s a pure extrovert — attentive, outgoing, fun-loving, and the finest of friend-makers; she’ll hop on your shoulder to snuggle and visit, and then shine her sparkling social spirit on other pets too. Cindy’s ready to grace you and yours with a wealth of affection. She’s already spayed and micro-chipped, set to start you off today with the loyal companionship you both so richly deserve. Go visit her at Petsmart and wonder how you ever lived without her.

Pets of the Week October 28, 2013

Silvia
Most dog friends will run to greet you; our shining young Lab/Border Collie mix Silvia literally prances — she prances to you, around you, and to retrieve the toy you throw; a year-and-a-half year old girl so ecstatic to see you she’s barely earth-bound. Silvia came to us homeless and skinny but now she’s vigorous in every way, with energy as nonstop as her affection. She’ll give you a kiss without losing her gorgeous pink and white smile, and hug you with attention, every minute. Silvia’s mind’s as keen as her social skills; she’s eager to learn and please, and she gets along easily with other dogs, too. See what serious frolicking is, then feel how sweet it is to play for keeps with a girl as bursting with heart and soul as Silvia.

Fiona
She’s a cat carved from alabaster, serene and statuesque, but then how can a sculpture be so warm and soft, and how can a soothing purr emerge the moment you touch it (her)? Our 2-year-old Fiona is more than a vision in pure white, she’s real and someone’s lost darling; a stunning beauty of a stray with delicate pink ears that know shelter from the sun, accustomed to being loved and admired, and confidently returning all the adoration she inspires. Pick her up and she’ll settle in your arms as if she’s known you forever, a perceptive friend and immediate ally, intelligent and refined, with manners that make others seems oafish. Go see Fiona — she’s waiting patiently at Petsmart — and see how quickly she comes alive when you meet her, and how happy her unblemished friendship makes you feel.

Pets of the Week October 21, 2013

Andy
He’s a medium-sized Shepherd/mix who loves large, with a personality as vibrant as the warm red in his coat; 2-year-old Andy’s so chock full of fun he can hardly contain himself, and all because he’s near you. He’s so energetic he fairly flies around the yard, but he’ll come to you in an instant, a lapdog wanna-be who adores tug-of-war, full of kisses no matter who wins. Andy’s fine with other dogs and would make a magnificent friend for bigger kids, he needs a yard to run in and a family or single who’ll return every ounce of his attention. See how boring your life’s been until now; Andy will bowl you over with joy, take your heart for a spin, and lay it happily at your feet.

Newby
Someone dropped her over the shelter fence during the night, and suddenly she was the new kid in the outdoor cat colony, a little gray and white kitten, pristinely beautiful and angora-soft, dubbed “Newbie” for her dramatic entry. At 5 months she’s thriving, 2 handfuls of cozy — with a ready purr as silky as the rest of her. Newbie knows how to get along just fine with other cats, she’s OK with dogs, and she keeps her box nice too, but her true calling is gracing you and your home with her ardent appreciation. Meet an exquisite young girl who’ll never let her love for you grow old; Newbie’s here, and she’ll cast her spell completely.

Pets of the Week October 14, 2013

Jack
He’s a gentleman’s gentleman of a black Lab/mix, 2 years old and Cabela’s catalogue-handsome — so cooperative he’ll kennel himself, and so mannerly his webbed feet will never touch your chest. Jack Diddly was found stray; he’s warm, well-socialized, calmer than most Labs — and quieter, too. Turn him out in the yard and watch him gracefully cover ground, a strong young athlete eager to play with other dogs; or put a leash on him and he’ll proudly walk by your side, wagging his enthusiasm. Jack Diddly could thrive as a well-loved outside dog, but he’s relaxed enough to live inside too; surround him with kids, other pets, or just your own friend-seeking heart. Your pure-loyal classic lab Jack Diddly’s waiting, come meet him today.

Chase
His milk moustache is just the first of his charms; our ever-social 10 month old “Chase” is determined to outdo other purveyors of purrs in every way possible. He’ll greet you with a “Me-me-me-me-ow,” stand on his hind legs and reach up delicately with an appealing paw, insinuate himself into your life with a fervent chin-push, and settle in your lap with a rib-rocking (yours and his) purr, relaxed but always ready to help you turn the pages of your Kindle. Chase keeps a litter box as tidy as his name and appreciates other felines, but his most avid involvement is with you; he’d make a blast of an inside/outside cat, one who’s available to lavish you with attention at a moment’s notice. Come feel the tickle of Chase’s immaculate moustache and see how much entertainment can be packed into an ever-small tabby-friend, Chase is already chipped and neutered, take him home with you today.

Pets of the Week October 7, 2013

Brody
His name is derived from the Gaelic term for “brother,” and Brody is indeed filled with brotherly love for everyone. He’s a stately Black Lab and Shepherd mix who was found stray at Petsmart. While at the shelter he has been a model resident setting the example of how to be a gentleman. His coffee brown eyes will stare a hole in your heart and you’ll swear he can see your soul and his laid-back personality is therapy for those people who need less stress in their lives. Come meet this considerate, kindly man dog and let him show you unconditional love.

Mikey
Mikey is more of an experience than a cat to write about. The dribble of black down his nose and mouth resemble a Rorshach inkblot test which tells you how mesmerizing this 6-month old lank of playful energy is. He exudes a confidence that asserts, “You’ll love me. Everyone does.” Mikey’s full of flirtatious affection, he loves to be held, and is the life of the party with other cats. If he was human he’d be that jester party guest who sports a lampshade to liven things up. Visit Mikey at Petsmart and be entertained by his lively antics and captivated by his amorous spirit.
