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
Dr. Phil Good, owner of Town & Country Veterinary Clinic, received his Bachelor of Science with highest honors in Chemical Engineering from Georgia Tech in 2006. Phil finally came to his senses, realizing he’d much rather work with animals than in a chemical plant. Dr. Good obtained his doctorate in veterinary medicine from UGA in 2011.
In February 2015 we rescued Bissou and other dogs from a yard where they were chained to the ground. None were “fixed” so of course Bissou had just given birth to 8 potluck puppies when we came on the scene (each looked like one of the males in the yard – different breeds!) Bissou was…
My baby Marlowe(one of Molly’s puppies) just turned one on 7/2/14! She’s grown quite a bit since the tiny puppy we adopted last year! She has been an amazing addition to our family and we love her so much! -Jen McKinney
Have you ever felt happy and sad at the same time? That’s how our volunteer who bottle-fed all those motherless pups feels this weekend as she places each of the beautiful babies into the arms of their new families. Congrats to Dory and her new people! Hopefully we will get updates, progress reports and pictures…
Foster homes are great for so many reasons, one being that they sometimes end up adopting their foster animal! Congratulations to Swiss Roll, who went home with this kind gal and her husband a while back. Swiss Roll needed to be in a home to recover from a urinary tract infection (he’s all better now)….
I adopted Felix, who is now named Tigger, from you. He was heartworm positive also. You provided all of his medicines and vet care and he is healthy and very well loved! Thank you for all you do for animals. -Carolyn Sussman
