Your Afternoon Animal Fix – AdoPtville

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.

Aurelia is the total package! A petite lady who loves to play, every toy is exciting to her except for a laser light, which she’d like you to know is just silly. She wants toys she can toss, catch and put her mouth on and having only one functioning eye doesn’t slow her down at all! Aurelia enjoys chasing balls and is getting pretty good at playing fetch with her favorite ball (one that’s bigger than her head)! She can and will entertain herself while you work (or sleep).

A quiet kitty, she does have a very small meow that usually comes out when she’s playing ball by herself. After a long play session, Aurelia is happy to curl up in your lap for a long nap. She has no problem with you typing away at your computer or working on Zoom while she sleeps.

Aurelia is both dog and cat friendly and would do well with animal companions, but since she’s so good at playing by herself, she’d probably be fine as an only cat as well. Aurelia is the perfect pet for someone; make that lucky person be you! Apply to meet her right now through City Kitties Rescue.

Cornelius is a go-with-the-flow kind of dog. Super sweet and low maintenance, he is the kind of buddy that enjoys very leisurely walks and doesn’t mind you hitting the snooze button a few times in the morning. He is a gentleman at home – doesn’t bark, beg or chew on anything. He loves spending time with his people, enjoys pets, and is very loyal. He’s even made friends with the neighbor’s dog.

Cornelius is adapting well to city life and all of its bustle. He is gaining confidence outside, though unexpected noises and unfamiliar people can startle him. He recovers pretty quickly and will continue on his merry way. Slow, calm introductions will warm Cornelius up to new people and get his tail wagging. Cheese and other treats are the great motivators for those walks later in the day. Cornelius is a sweet, low-key dog who will stand by you and love you without limits. Apply today to meet this heart of gold fella through City Dogs Rescue.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
