This Thursday is Thanksgiving, a day when we should all reflect on the many things for which we are thankful for. It’s also a time for families to get together and enjoy each other’s company and share a little love. We should all do this more than just once a year. The family unit is not what it used to …

Hi! My name is Missy and I am a female tabby cat, about 3 years old. If you look at the picture you will see I am sitting close to a dish of food. I’m very hungry because I have had kittens. I’ve been a very good mama and took care of my kittens and they have all been adopted. …

Thanksgiving is a week from Thursday, yet the stores are already getting ready for Christmas. It would be nice if we could appreciate these special days at a slower pace.

In the midst of it all, however, is America’s pastime, which seems to take a back seat to everything else in the wide, world of …

Hi! My name is Denozo and I am a tiger and white male cat. I’m about 7 years old and I have the best of everything – I’m already neutered, I am declawed on my front paws and am litter-trained. I have never been outside so I am a real inside baby. And, I LOVE my shark house that I’m …

Welcome to November! This is a very busy month for all of us, beginning with a week from today, Tuesday, November 8. November 8 is Election Day, a day when only the foolish will stay home and not cast a ballot. I don’t care if you vote for a write-in candidate named Bugs Bunny, as long as you vote. You …

Hello. I’m Dusk and I am a male black and white “tuxedo” kitty. I’m about three months old and I really like to play hide-and-seek. I’m already housetrained and I do well with other kitties.

I recently realized that I don’t really have a lot of buddies anymore. Oh, I have a buddy that I have lunch with once a week and I have a buddy that I might go with to the Conservation Club every so often, but I don’t have anyone that I feel comfortable with going to their house and asking if …
