My name is Livvy.  I am mom to Tigger.  We are both here at Animal Control and available for adoption.  I am a female, black and white, about 4 years old.  I am more outgoing and I love to be held.  Tigger,  (I’m her son)  is about three years old.  I have been neutered, I am housetrained, and on the reserved …

Dining out, especially for breakfast, continues to give me material for this column. I especially enjoy having breakfast at a small quaint cafe where they usually have regular diners who gather there every morning to discuss the world’s problems. Some of these eateries have unique little signs placed on the wall with hopes that the customers get a chuckle or …

My name is Xena.  I am a one year old, female, tabby.  I was brought in to Animal Control to find a new home.  I am housetrained and I love attention.  When the lady took my picture I nestled into her hand and arms.  I love to be petted and cuddled.  Help me find my new home.My docket number is …

I can’t help it, but here I go again venting about television ads. It seems we just can’t get away from them unless you follow the Turner Classic Movies (TCM) channel. I don’t think there are any ads on HBO or any of the other premium cable channels. Anyway, there are some ads that are clever, but the majority of …

They call me Polly.  I came into Animal Control as a stray, on the thin side.  I look like a lab mix, with a tan coat.  I am a female, housetrained.  The nice people here have been really generous with the love and food and I am beginning to look better.  I walk nice, sit nice, come when called.  I …

Like many, I have a problem throwing anything away. I’m afraid to throw out a receipt for fear of needing it a week after I throw it in the wastebasket. At one time I had three or four empty three-ring binders. There was nothing wrong with them so why get rid of them? A friend suggested that I give them …

That’s me, ‘Sandy’ in the middle.  I am a tiger and very active. very curious and outgoing.  My number is BIO18-000252.  ‘Brandy” is on the left, I am a dark tortoise color,  I am a little quieter than Sandy.  My number is BIO18-000254.  And the quietest is Mandy, a dilute grey.  Her number is BIO-000253.  We have to coax Mandy …

The 2019 cars and trucks are finally arriving at the dealerships. There are many who shy away from purchasing a new car because of the depreciation that occurs the minute you drive it out of the showroom. You can buy a very nice used car if you go about it the right way. It’s difficult to find that older lady …

I am Cullen, a neutered male, about one year old, Heeler Aussie mix.  I am on the small side probably under 40 lbs.  I have a medium length coat, I am housebroken and I get along with other dogs.  I came in to this place as a stray.  I am a little slow to make up to people, but the …

One doesn’t need to look far to be subjected to some form of loud noise, whether it’s a car needing a new muffler or the delightful sound of children yelling at each other in excitement, hopefully outdoors. The younger set likes to have their music cranked up to 5000 decibels. Attending a rock concert just isn’t the same unless you’re …
