Please Adopt Us
The Animal Shelter of Martha’s Vineyard has had a very busy summer; lots of cats, kittens and a few dogs have found wonderful new homes. The two darling wire-haired dachshunds we wrote about last week found a new loving home together. We are so pleased when cats or kittens are adopted in pairs. They spend so much time together at the shelter — when they go to a new home and have a buddy to share the adjustment with, it gives them comfort during the transition.

Alicia and Dave Christensen of Oak Bluffs announce the birth of a daughter, Aurora Rose Christensen, born on August 29, 2011, at the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital. Aurora weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces at birth. She is welcomed by her big brother, Aidan.
