We all love her very much. We want to hold and cuddle with her all the time, but we are still trying to give her some space. The kids have been very understanding with that.  Unfortunately the name that I had thought was cute  (Flower), was voted out. We have been calling her "Baby" and  "Little Kitty".  But still thinking the perfect name will come up. It's hard when you have 5 people to please.  She is still a bit skittish, and runs when you try to pick her up. But she LOVES her food, and you can generally pat her while she is eating.  Once you get her, she will sit with you and purr,  we all love that. She just loves Squeaky so much, and the whole thing was a bit of a blessing in disguise......because Squeak is a bit over-weight, and we need to start to manage that before he gets older, to prevent diabetes....so he has been running around and playing like never before, and plus "Little Kitty" eats all her food, and then Squeaky's.......instant diet, and exercise plan!!
 

My husband and I adopted Tally Cat #2(with the orange collar), we named him, Oakley. He is a little ball of chaotic energy but we love him! He loves sleeping with us at night and then waking us up by chewing on our chins  It took a couple days for our other cat Scout to get used to such a hyper little black and white kitten but the two have become fast friends!  Thank you so much for the great work you do and thank  you for our new little family member!

The Garufos - January 2010

We couldn't have gotten a better dog. She's a happy pup and in great health. Her original owners took great care of her and trained her well. She very rarely barks, responds
well to commands and the leash, enjoys walks and playing in the snow, and is a
loving and loveable member of our family now. Thank you so much!
 

Maybe you remember Luke? he's the special guy  fighting cancer and FAAS gave $500 to his family last year at the Furr-Ball, to help out with some of his vet bills.  His family wanted to let us know that he just turned 3yrs. old! and he's still "Hanging in there!"  Good luck Luke!

This is my “Happy Tail”.  I hope you will post it-even though we adopted Lexi in September, 2006!  As you know, a lot of dogs of this breed get a bad rap.  Well, Lexi has been doing fine in her forever home.  We have had a couple of hiccups along the way, but we all love her.  She is the only animal in the house with 2 parents and a 17 year old buddy.  The reason we adopted Lexi was due to her ability to play “soccer”.  My son has played soccer since he was in kindergarten.  We have 2 acres of land for Lexi to play with her beloved red ball.  Yup, that’s right; she still has her ball that came home with us from the shelter!  She still loves her kiddy pool, especially after playing soccer for awhile.  She has been seen by the same Vet and has never gotten into doggie trouble with animal control in our town. She has become somewhat of a social butterfly.  She is friendly with a chocolate Lab and a larger Chihuahua mix that live in our neighborhood.   She loves to ride in the car, and just recently she went for a ride in our RV motor home.  She loved that; she could look right out the windshield from behind the driver seat.  We thank the shelter for putting us together. 
     

I wanted to drop you a line and let you know Tessie (formally Onica) is doing great!  She and Rocko are best buddies!  She is such a love bug, her antics and personality is one of a kind.  When you yell "No" she will stop, look at you and run to you for your forgiveness.  She is also a little instigator and doesn't know when to stop when it comes to Rocko.  House training is complete and the other training is coming along great!  Its a little harder with two but its coming along. I keep telling Rocko he needs to be the example.

Krystal - October 2009

Dunkin is much more lively today! Yesterday he was a little groggy (understandably) and I think he thought he had done something wrong because he was extra cuddly.  Today he seems much, much better and is back to his old self.  He is very upset though that we haven't been throwing things for him to bring back or taking him for long walks.. he keeps looking at us like we've been boring the last few days.  Soon enough he can go back to daycare and play with all of his friends and everything!  Everyone in the waiting room couldn't believe he was from the shelter.. we have told so many people that he came from the Attleboro animal shelter and they are always impressed because he's so cute and well behaved.. hopefully we have encouraged others to go adopt!!!

Taz - I just received Taz's medical papers in the mail, and it reminded me to write you. She is absolutely one of the most wonderful cats ever! She has made the past week one of the best I've known, and has quickly become the baby of our family, despite her 9 years young age. My fiance adores her too; we sit every night on the couch, snuggling and watching TV with her. She snuggles by at bedtime, and I wake to her sweet face awaiting me every morning. She is truly my little buddy!
     I took your advice on her catnip addiction and spoiled her with toys and treats... even bought a live catnip plant, which she loves. I don't think I could be any happier with her and, seeing how happy she is with us, makes me feel as if it was meant to be! Thank you for the dedication you show and the selfless work you do.

Nikki - Well, it has been a year since I adopted Nikki. He's the little white one on the left, sitting next to his best friend, Sammy. Don't let that adorable face fool you, though; he is one tough cookie. I had to work very hard to gain his trust and respect.
     He tended to lunge and snap at people if they moved too quickly towards him. Anything I would have in my hands when I went near him caused suspicion and aggression. Thanks to the TV show “The Dog Whisperer,” a lot of research, exercise, and socialization, his improvement has been dramatic. He has a lot of doggy friends and people he loves, and we go walking with them every evening. He is a pretty happy camper now, and I couldn't ask for a better companion.
     Now Nikki has become a neighborhood favorite; people remark at how much better he is. I love him to death and am so happy he found his forever home with me. It's not always easy to recognize a diamond in the “ruff,” but I highly recommend adopting a rescue dog. It is totally worth it.

Glacier - Remember this guy?? Glacier and Lexus aka Fric and Frac! Glacier is doing just great. He loves his sister Lexus very much. They enjoy running full speed ahead through the yard. They run right next to each other barking and wagging their tails. Glacier loves to throw a few spins in when running to try and knock his sister down. Since she weighs 8 pounds less, and thus has a lower center of gravity, tends to knock him over. The two of them are cause for much laughter from the neighbors and visitors.
     They are two definite clowns, and we could not have asked for a better adoption. Both of our pit bulls have the best dispositions and are ambassadors for the breed. They meet every visitor with wagging tails and if someone is brave enough to bend over, they will get the “never ending bully kisses” simultaneously by both dogs!

Roz - As you can see, Roz fits right in. She loves to play with the kids and adopted brother Samson whom we rescued in January, 2006. They just love each other. They are both a great part of are family, and we love them.

Tyger - He is doing very well.  He has access to the entire house now and is getting along pretty well with Abby.  He likes to play with those toy balls that have the little bells in them, and also likes to stalk bathrobe sashes from under the bed!   He’s still a little timid but I think he’ll warm up to us after a while.

Thank you for taking care of him for so long
