It may seem strange to say that silver-coated, four-month-old Doe is lucky. After all, someone threw the kitten from a moving car, in the Walmart parking lot. However, instead of being killed or disabled by her landing, instead of being run over while she was lying stunned on the pavement, someone hurried to scoop up […]
Everyone has a flaw, but it shouldn’t turn into a fatal flaw.

His instincts tell him that chickens are birds, not fellow family members. Duke went […]

That means that Starbucks needs to live with someone who appreciates and understands her. Canine psychologist, Dr. Stanley Corin, says Heelers […]
Maple, a cat the color of maple syrup, and just as sweet, was carried into the shelter and described as a stray. Yet, the word “stray” doesn’t seem to apply to Maple. The three-year-old, neutered, gentle fellow must be encouraged to stray from the bed he’s claimed in the shelter’s cat room. Maple wouldn’t willingly […]
