It’s been a great week for adoptions! Silver Sox and Hickory both found their new families, and Micki’s adoption has been finalized. We couldn’t be happier for all of them and their new families.

Our pets of the week are Exso, a one- to two-year-old tuxedo cat that could not be sweeter, and her kitten Fugee, a five-month-old, male tuxedo. These two are quite bonded and we’d love to see them go to a home together. Both are friendly and affectionate and would be a great addition to any home. Also available is Cricket, a six-year-old, tabby and white female, is indoor/outdoor. She is currently on a special diet due to her plumpness, which will need to be continued until she returns to her optimum weight.

The yard sale last Sunday was a huge success. Thank you to everyone that stopped by and found new treasures. We’re hoping to make this an annual event.
