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.
With Hurricane Florence taking aim at the Carolinas, many of our local rescues are *urgently* in need of additional foster homes and additional funding to help support shelters and rescue organizations in the path of the storm. All of the rescues below are taking on additional animals to help keep them safe. Please consider signing up as an emergency foster, or giving funds to help support transports, veterinary care, and other urgent needs. Or, you can adopt one of their existing animals to help make room for even more to be rescued!
Thanks PoPville – you guys have shown time and time again what awesome neighbors you are – let’s help our furry neighbors too!!

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.
