From the office of the DC Attorney General:
“Attorney General Brian L. Schwalb today issued a Consumer Alert to customers of the genetic testing company 23AndMe, warning District residents that their genetic data may be at risk after the company declared bankruptcy this week. While the company states that there will be no change to the storage, management, or protection of customer data, it is important to protect your sensitive genetic data from risk.

Meet Sabber: Professional Snuggle Expert & Aspiring Sock Thief
Male • 1 year old • 39 lbs
Sabber is a soft-hearted sweetheart with a growing sense of adventure. He started off as a shy city boy, but now he struts the streets like a pro—tail wags included (for VIPs only).
At home, Sabber is a certified cuddle connoisseur, mastering the art of melting into his favorite humans. He’s also dabbling in toy appreciation and, on occasion, a little light sock thievery—but don’t worry, he’s easily bribed with belly rubs and a simple “leave it.”
Housetrained, cratetrained, and dog-friendly, Sabber is ready to steal your heart (and maybe a sock or two). Apply today to meet this lovable goof!
One’s a graceful silver tabby who sees the world in her own way; the other is a fluffy one-eyed daredevil with a talent for mischief. Together, they’re the perfectly imperfect dream team!
Harmony may be blind, but don’t let that fool you—she’s a fearless explorer, expert cuddler, and top-tier treat detective. Once she trusts you, she’ll be your shadow, chirping sweetly for attention and curling up for endless belly rubs.
Then there’s Havoc, living up to his name with boundless energy, ridiculous zoomies, and an adventurous spirit that can’t be stopped. With one eye and limited vision, he charges through life with goofy confidence, always ready to climb, wrestle, and charm new friends.
While they may be opposites, these two complete each other. Havoc’s boldness gives Harmony courage, and Harmony’s calm keeps Havoc (somewhat) in check. They’re a packaged deal—double the fun, double the love, and double the personality!
Are you ready for a dynamic duo who will fill your home with love, laughter, and a little bit of chaos? Apply today to meet Havoc & Harmony!
