Please Adopt Us
Our featured animals this week are two new young cats only 11 months old. Gibson is a gray and white neutered male, and Quincy is a Russian blue neutered male. Both are extremely friendly; they love other cats, dogs and kids. They are the perfect young house cats for anyone who is looking for an older kitten.

The week did not start out the best, but Wednesday was the perfect weather. It is dry and cool with a beautiful sky. I think this is the weather most people are happy with.
I did the most bizarre thing the other day: clean around my computer stand. Then when I went to get the birthday list, it was not there. So in my minutes of throwing away old paperwork it must have been in the out pile. That is what I get for trying to be organized.
