If you have any animal/pet photos you’d like to share for the regular fix please send an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail(dot)com with ‘Animal Fix’ in the title and say the name of your pet and your neighborhood. AdoPtville is run by two volunteers who compile these pets weekly from local shelters.
Hi, guys! HI, GUYS! Hiiiii, Guuuuyyyss!! This is Cletus, and as you might have guessed, I’m a pretty happy-go-lucky (I’m a Lucky Dog – geddit?) dude, even though I’m currently between homes (ahem). I’m 5 years old and weigh 61 pounds, and they call me a boxer mix, even though I’m a lover more than a fighter, really. I LOVE to chase and play, which means I’m: a) a lot of fun, obvi; b) a great pal to other dogs when introduced correctly, but also c) not so good with cats or small children. I would do great in an active home where I get lots of exercise and play, ideally with an experienced dog owner to help me focus all this fun energy! To find out more about adopting me, check out my bio and even some video of me in action here.
Sharp-eyed PoPvillagers (and there are a lot of you) might recognize Salali, who was featured in an early AdoPtville post. More than a year later, this pretty Kuwaiti transplant is still looking for her fur-ever home, so we’re giving Salali a Second Chance! She was rescued from a rough life on the streets of Kuwait, and brought to the U.S. by a generous sponsor. Now Miss Salali is living the good life of being an indoor cat, but still waiting to find a family that will be all hers. Salali is a talkative girl, who loves to tell you all about her adventures! She’s about 3 years old, and, due to her history as a stray, is on the shy side. Salali would do best in a home as the only cat, with no dogs or small children. She is looking for a calm and patient home where her sweet purr-sonality will have the chance to fully blossom! Find out more about this little diamond in the rough here.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
