Adoptions 1-19-08

Cold weather, slow adoptions but BIG NEWS!  Annie went home today!  Tallulah also came back today, but her foster mom was very happy to see her and will be sleeping in bed with her tonight!

Dogs: Blair, Bella, Annie

Cats: Jerry, Gidget, Riley, Smitten & Bashful

Jerry - my little ice cream boy whose brother Ben died a couple weeks ago.  He went to a very nice family with two little girls who will just love him to pieces!  Jerry's new grandma and great grandma were there as well to offer advice and buy him new toys!

Gidget - one of our more senior cats at six-years-old, someone fell in love with her from the website and adopted her today

Riley - went home last Sunday afternoon, I hope I get pictures to see if her coat keeps getting longer as she gets older, she came in with kittens and short hair, but it just kept growing out!

Smitten & Bashful - these were the shockers of the week.  Two cats, a mother and son, who are so shy that they never came to PetSmart after their first awful experience.  Someone had been looking at Smitten's picture online for 4 months and finally wanted to meet her.  Then she couldn't seperate mom and son and so both got a great home!  We've gotten updates already and they are making the transition very smoothly! 

Blair: little pup that was being sold in the parking lot of Walmart - bichon friese mix

Bella - little golden mix pup that was dumped in the country just after Christmas

Annie - Visit our main website or look deep in the archives of my blog to see her story.  She's one of our $1,000 animals.  She came in with major allergies and needed multiple surgeries for entropian eyelids.  Her skin isn't red anymore and she can see!  Her new family had adopted Daisy, a hound dog that we saved from a kill shelter, but she had a problem and had to be put down.  The family was taking it very hard and wanted to fill the void right away!  They're going to be meeting with our vet to see what all will be involved in managing Annie's allergies, but what a great family - Annie deserved this happy ending!
