Willem

In late December, my husband and I adopted Willem whom we have renamed Wilson, Kittenhead, and L’il Bits.  No doubt, over the years he will earn any number of other nicknames. He is shown here in the middle of play time with Bogie, our other fur baby.  Wilson was close to 6 months old when he came to live with us and we had forgotten how much fun it was, having a kitten.  This little guy is adorable.  He arrived well socialized–he doesn’t run from friends who come to visit,  sweet natured and highly energetic–he really keeps me busy, devising new games to keep him interested, and we spend lots of time every day, playing.  Right now, his favorite game is jumping to catch a feathered toy.  From the first day, we never had to separate him from Bogie, who is a really gentle giant who never once had an ugly word to say about (or to) Wilson and they are learning to play together, which delights me.   I imagine in another month or so, they’ll be snuggling up together.  He has several places around the house to sleep during the day, but needless to say, since day 1, he’s snuggled up right between Andrew and me, at night.  Wilson is already much loved and pampered.  -Debbie Martin

    Someone finally saw Farrah for what she is — a highly adoptable dog stuck in a shelter for no good reason. Thank you so much for giving her a home (and for being repeat adopters from us). We know you will love her as much as we do!

    I just wanted to post an update on two adorable kittens (Sonoma and Napa) I adopted in June.  They are growing so quickly.  They are now known as Morticia and Gomez. They are so much fun.  A couple weeks after they came home, I was making iced coffee and accidentally dropped an ice cube on…

  • Herschel

    This all-female (except dad, of course) family wanted a male pup to balance the scales a bit. I’m sure the feminine attention will be more than welcome to the sweet puppy they picked and named Herschel. Congratulations Herschel!

  • Willow

    Willow’s new family has her decked out in style! She’s now called Olive and will be doted on by a mom and pop, two teenage sisters and two preteen brothers. That should make for one VERY spoiled former shelter dog! Thank you so much for adopting this perky pup!
