Pet of the Week: Jack

Meet Jack, an adult grey and white Domestic Short Hair male available for adoption locally.

Here is what his friends at Little Buddies Adoption and Humane Society have to say about him:

Can you believe that a cat as cute as Jack has been with us for over THREE YEARS? We’re not sure why, because he is so nice, doesn’t mind other cats, and even has a tiny heart on his nose. Who could resist?!

Jack is a true rags to riches story, because he was originally found as a stray in West Virginia. He was cold, hungry and needed some medical attention for a couple issues. We’re glad he came into our care so we could patch him up and get him happy and healthy again!

Jack — aka Jack Jack aka One-Eye Jack — has numerous hobbies that occupy his time. He likes to lounge in his cat tree, lounge in his window perch, lounge in the sunny patch that moves across the carpet and lounge on your bed. When the mood strikes, he likes playing with his laser toy, but his favorite thing is to.. you guessed it: lounge.

This sweet cat is very people-oriented, and will love to sleep in bed with you. He even comes when you call his name! Seriously, what could be better than being greeted by this handsome fellow when you get home from work or errands, and then having him follow you around lounging all day?

Jack is 4 years old and in really good shape, especially given his mysterious past and the shape he was in when he first arrived to us. He has a minor heart condition that is well-managed with medication, which Jack takes like a champ mixed with his food or in a pill pocket. An easy-to-medicate cat? What a dream. The pills are very reasonably priced, too (just $6 for a two month supply) so that’s not too much to ask to keep Jack in tip-top shape, right?

Meet Buster, a Terrier/American Staffordshire male available for adoption locally.

Here is what Buster from Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation has to say about himself:

Hi, I’m Buster and my friends would describe me as the big, strong guy with a heart of gold. I love long walks in the park (or anywhere) and don’t mind passing people along the way. I get a little excited when I see other dogs and may bark or want to pull on the leash for a closer look.

Although I have shared my home with a guinea pig, I prefer to be the only dog (and no cats either). I am crate trained and love toys with that squeaky thing in them. Right now, I’m looking to settle down in a nice home where I can lounge on the sofa and play with my people. Lots of playing. I also love back scratches and giving slobbery kisses.

I don’t always know my own strength, so I would probably be better suited to a home with teenagers or adults only. I’d really appreciate someone with canine experience who knows how to give a dog my size plenty of exercise and can hold their own with me on the leash.

Meet Mona Leasha, a black Retriever/Labrador mix available for adoption locally.

Here is what her friends at Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation have to say about her:

Mona Leasha is a thing of beauty and a cuddly one too! Her big, enigmatic eyes will draw you in and make it hard to look away from all the cuteness!

This pretty lady is a wonderful walking companion, who is happy to accompany you wherever you want to go. Mona can be leash reactive with some other dogs — usually those that are bigger than her — and her foster is working with her on this. Her adopter should continue this training.

Mona Leasha otherwise has a very calm, sweet demeanor and is always happy to make new friends. When we’ve turned her loose in the yard with other dogs during playgroup, she’s turned up the energy and ran and wrestled with the fastest of them!

She is very curious about everyone and everything in her surroundings. Once she gets to know you, she likes to say hello with gentle kisses and lots of tail wagging! Mona Leasha is basically potty-trained, smart and treat motivated. She does have a little incontinence, but it is controlled by medication, and she has no problem rocking a fashionable dog diaper when needed.

Meet Valkyrie, a Tiger Striped Domestic Short Hair available for adoption locally.

Here is what her friends at Little Buddies Adoption and Humane Society have to say about her:

Valkyrie aka Val is a regal beauty. She’s a little timid, will need some time to warm up but when she does your lap will be her new friend!

She lives with several other fosters and doesn’t mind other cats but would prefer a quiet home to herself. She loves to play laser light but the other kitties always take over. She feels it’s her time to shine all by herself.

Her favorite thing is to sip from the bathroom faucet as you get ready in the morning. Who wouldn’t want that all to themselves.

Val is about 3-4 years old.
