A Family Reunited! CB Goes Home!


CB went home last night. He was adopted by a radio DJ and Barb A's husband heard him talking on the radio about the adoption. Looks like CB is going to be famous!

Blossom (aka Roxanna) was reunited with her family today and left with her mom. Apparently last weekend mom's thirteen year old daughter went into PetSmart and saw Blossom and recognized her as a cat they had lost in May!! Mom came into the store and lo and behold it was her Roxanna!! Thanks to a microchip implanted by the Shelter that won't happen again.

Brandon has a hold and the application is at the Shelter for review. Violet has two holds pending right now. Both applications are being reviewed.

I was afraid that CB's leaving would be difficult for Cathy but it looks like I was wrong. While at PetSmart today I thought she seemed friendlier and more relaxed. She sure is pretty! Unfortunately the hold on her has been pulled as the adoption application was not approved.

I taped the directions for taking a hold and completing an adoption application on the wall of the adoption room as well as to the top of the adoption cart. Applications that do not have a hold with a cash deposit will not be processed. PLEASE make sure to get the deposit! Also, review the applications and make sure they are complete and every applicable question is answered. If the applicant owns their property the Shelter requires a copy of their tax bill. If the applicant rents their property the Shelter requires a copy of the lease or a letter from their landlord saying pets are permitted. These documents can be faxed to the Shelter. PLEASE follow these directions as not doing so only slows down the adoption process. Again, all the directions are right in the adoption room to guide you along.
