So...what is going on? Bunny was brought back to the Shelter to see the vet for a sore on her front paw. She is doing just fine and will be on meds a few more days.
Tiger went home last weekend and will be living with a older dog and older cat. He is going to have a nice Thanksgiving with his new family!! They are thrilled to have him.
We did get an application for Glory right before I left for vacation. Unfortunately it did not work out. Hopefully her day will come soon!!
Three new cats arrived on Tuesday afternoon..Snowball, Gus and Tinkerbell. All are easy going and will acclimate to a home with other cats, kids and dogs. Snowball is a black and white male going on three years old. He was adopted as a kitten from one of the area veterinarian offices in October 2010. Unfortunately now the owner had to move and the new landlord will not allow Snowball to live in the new place. Gus is an orange and white male about five months old that came into the Shelter as a stray. He is playful and loving - but may appear shy at first. Tinkerbell is a pretty blue cream calico over a year old. She is another victim of the old "I'm moving and can't take the cat with me." So sad. Please keep an eye on the new guys and once they seem comfortable let them out to play together! They're a good lot!!

Please tell your friends and family to stop in as well. Tel people that if they are bring a pet for a picture with Santa Paws they should bring their own camera.

I am gearing up for the 2013 calendar. If you have a regular day and time and can no longer make that commitment please contact me ASAP. If I do not hear from you I will continue to schedule you as I have been. Sadly we are saying goodbye to two wonderful regular volunteers - Paige and Toni.
