“Dear PoPville,
Where are the mailboxes located especially near U Street? There was a mailbox near 11th and U but I think it was removed?”

I am Monica! Just like my namesake on “Friends”, I try to be perfect in every way. I am super-friendly and greet humans and canines as old friends. If you are into running or power walks, we’d be great friends. When I have achieved my exercise goal, I love to chill and watch the world around me. I am quiet, do well in the crate, and am good with kids too. The icing on the cake is that I am extremely loving and will cuddle right up with you. I particularly enjoy resting my head on soft human laps.
I am looking for my soul mate. Could you be my Chandler Bing or Rachel Greene? Let’s meet and get some coffee. It may not be Central Perk, but I am sure it will be a great first encounter — apply today to meet me!
Jet is the absolute sweetest, most social cat on the planet! It took him all of thirty minutes to warm up to his fosters. He is super playful, but doesn’t necessarily demand a lot of attention; he’s just as happy playing by himself as he is having someone play with him. His fosters joke that he is a dog-like cat; he loves attention, cuddles, belly rubs, and even playing fetch. He even greets people at the door when we come home by nuzzling his face against their legs.
Jet truly loves being around people, whether taking naps by with his people or even jumping up on the bathroom counter to watch as his fosters brush their teeth. Although he loves being a part of it all, Jet is also a great listener and very responsive when told no. He is incredibly well-behaved and patient, truly letting his fosters do whatever they want with him with little complaint. Jet is truly the cutest, friendliest, and most photogenic little guy and everyone who meets him instantly falls in love!
