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.

Do you appreciate classic beauty like an adorable doll face and shining chartreuse eyes? That’s me, Charlotte, an indomitable spirit in a supremely elegant package. I don’t want to be your pet – I want to be your friend and equal. I love looking out the window (it’s like TV, but free!) and patrolling to make sure the house is safe. I’m always alert and I stand ready to defend my family from feather-based toys and investigate distant noises. I’ll welcome you home with an expert tongue bath and smooshing my face against you.

I can be a little nervous, but it’s only because I’m such a small cat in such an overwhelming world, and don’t we all feel that way sometimes? I need an owner that understands and respects cat body language because I don’t always want human attention – sometimes I’m in the middle of very important cat-tasks and I don’t have time for pets. But other times I’ll come sit on your lap and lick you, or I’ll lay next to you and roll around for your amusement. If you’re one of my favorite people, I’ll even come up and beg for chin scratches. My tail will usually tell you what mood I’m in!

Because I can be a little nervous, I would prefer a home where I am the only pet and one without small children — dogs, cats, and youngsters can be so unpredictable! I also hope that my new home will allow me time to relax and be comfortable — it may take a while but I’m worth the wait! I take a single Prozac every night in a pill pocket as a treat to help me relax a bit, but that’s all I need — that and love. Please adopt me! I’m a great cat and I’m ready to be your best friend!

Do you want some spice in your life? Look no further than Fanny! She came to Lost Dog as part of a multi-dog owner-surrender from Mississippi. She was pregnant at the time, and gave birth to her puppies in a loving Lost Dog foster home. Her puppies have all found their homes, and now it’s her turn!

She is still a bit skittish due to lack of human touch in her previous life, and she expresses her fear vocally. She will do best with a patient owner who can show her the world is not such a scary place. A fenced yard (which would be a big plus) and another confident friendly dog in the home to help her overcome her fear is ideal, but is not required. So, what do you think? Do you have a place in your home for this special girl? For more information, email [email protected].
