Adopt Roy and Chewy – brother and sister cats

March 7, 2012

This week’s featured adoptable cats are Chewy and Roy.

West Philly resident Gina and her roommates have been taking care of the cats, but they are all going to graduate next month and need to find them a new home.

Roy and Chewy are brother and sister black and white cats. They are medium sized, very lovable, neutered, with updated shots, and can be adopted together or separately. They were victims of a break in at their old home, so they get very scared of plastic bags and loud banging noises. They are good with other animals and kids as long as you give them a week or so to get used to their new surroundings.

Here are their photos:

If you’re interested in adopting one or both of these cats or would like to meet them, please email Gina at: ginapiccari [at] gmail.com

Mr. Twilight is pretty much the best bunny ever. He is:

–House-trained and VERY good with the litterbox
–Friendly and easy to handle
–Quiet and not much of a chewer
–Already neutered
–Very healthy and already had a vet checkup this year
–Very soft and his coat does not need brushing
–Young, less than a year old so you’ll have him for a long time!

He is a really special rabbit. He’s available through Luv-N-Bunns Rabbit Rescue (http://www.luvnbunns.org/) and he’s at a foster home in University City. He would love to meet you! Please email Natalie at nhdavid86 [at] gmail.com if you want to take this beautiful guy home.

Missing orange tabby cat (with one eye). Update: Found!

March 4, 2012

Update (03/06): The owner reports that Clawdius is back home.

An orange tabby named Clawdius has been missing since Thursday. He has one eye, so he is very distinctive. He has a tendency to wander into open basements. He frequents the backyards between Pine and Osage on the 4400 block.

If you have seen him, please call Susan at 267-307-5957.

Adopt-a-Dog: Apollo

March 1, 2012

This week’s featured dog is Apollo, an adorable honey-colored 1-2 year old mutt (Pit Bull Terrier/Mastiff mix). Whatever he may be, he is one handsome dog!

Though he weighs about 64 lbs, Apollo is on the medium size with shorter legs and a big old loveable head. Apollo is pretty nervous being in the loud, crowded shelter but is dealing with it as well as he can. He stays lower to the ground while walking through the kennels, but once outside he will climb into your lap for attention and he loves being petted.

Once he’s loosened up a bit, he loves to play tag around the runs. Apollo showed no issues with basic or advanced handling and actually seemed to enjoy the attention. He also showed no issues with food. He was pretty distracted during his cat-test so he’ll need another one before going home with any.

Apollo was a little uncomfortable meeting the more pushy dogs at the shelter, but did not react negatively. He likely just needs some time to feel more comfortable there before he’ll begin to play with them. Please bring your resident dogs down to the shelter to meet Apollo!

Apollo has lived with young children in his last home and was playful with them, per his former family. Families with children under 12 should bring them down to meet him. Apollo shouldn’t go home with children under 5 right now since he is still on the shyer side and will likely be more energetic once in a home. Please come meet this sweet boy today!

Apollo is located at ACCT Philadelphia, 111 W. Hunting Park Avenue. Adoption hours are 1-8 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. on weekends. If you are interested in fostering, please contact nsmith [at] pspca.org or jsweeney [at] pspca.org.

Adopt-a-Cat: William

February 29, 2012

William, an absolutely adorable 9-10 week old kitten, walked right in Ben’s front door this past weekend. Ben lives at 51st and Walnut. William is the cutest and friendliest little guy – he enjoys playing, nuzzling, and lap-sitting in equal measure. Ben is at maximum cat capacity at the moment and can’t keep the kitten, so he would like to find a good home for him. William gets along great with Ben’s other cats, guests, and inanimate objects.

Anyone wanting to meet him, please contact Ben at 610-761-0315 or by email: herman.ben [at] gmail.com.
