Meet Uma and Circus, 10-year-0ld kitties who are available for adoption locally.

Here’s what their friends at Fancy Cats Rescue Team had to say about them:

Uma and Circus were pulled when their time was up at a Maryland shelter. Big boy Circus is calm and loves being pet. He’s very easygoing and may seem slightly hesitant at first but quickly warms up and then shows you what a social but gentle giant he is. Circus is a playful guy if you initiate it and is happy to catch the feather wand over and over again.

His pal, Uma, is a sleek house panther and takes her playing very seriously. Once you give her the feather toy, she will not let go of it — it’s HERS! She’s a very chatty girl, and if you can get a very fun dialogue going with her, she will keep responding! While Uma is a very social lady, she does have a diva side, so it’s important to know when she is overstimulated by too much playing or petting. (A thumping tail on any cat is a sure sign!) These 10-year-olds are housed at our adoption center at the Chantilly PetSmart.

Are you, Uma and Circus the perfect trio?

Ike, a sweet 4-month-old pup, is Reston’s latest Pet of the Week.

Here’s what Ike’s friends at Fancy Cats Rescue Team had to say about him:

Meet Ike! This sweet 4-month-old mixed breed puppy is a fun-loving, dual eye color boy who gets along with everyone (human and dog) he meets. This boy is well on his way to house training, and you will love the way he prances when he sees you. He loves a good game of fetch, and if you need someone to cuddle up with, he’s your guy. He enjoys hanging outside, exploring his surroundings and playing with his toys.

Are you and Ike the perfect match?

Meet Reston’s newest Pet of the Week, Scott. Scott is a friendly guy who’s just looking for his scratcher-in-chief.

Here’s what his friends at Fancy Cats Rescue Team had to say about him:

Scott is a little bit shy at first, but once he knows he’s home, he wants to tell you all about it!

He’s got a big loud meow and a bigger purr. He likes to be petted and held. He loves to play with string toys — or really any toys. He doesn’t need constant attention and will settle in for a nap or a bird watch when you’re busy with other things. This young man is ready for action when you’ve got a spare moment! He’s great with the litter box and loves a good ear scratch.

Will you be his scratcher-in-chief and give this little love bug a forever home?

Are you and Scott the perfect match?

Meet Classy Carolina, a friendly Great Pyrenees mix who’s looking for her forever home.

Here’s what her friends at Safe Haven Puppy Rescue have to say about her:

Meet Carolina, a beautiful Great Pyrenees girl who weighs about 65 pounds and is just barely 1 year old. She’s such a nice girl, friendly and affectionate — even does well on a leash. We’re confident Carolina will make her adopters a terrific companion. This great girl is a nice blend of friendly affection and normal puppy playfulness and will bring lots of love to any home.

Are you and Classy Carolina the perfect match?

Meet Sabrina and Sheba, loving senior tabbies who are up for adoption locally.

Here’s what their friends at Fancy Cats Rescue Team had to say about them:

Sabrina and Sheba are very well loved pet tabbies who have been together their whole lives. Unfortunately, their owner just died so they need a new loving home to live out the rest of theirs as well.

Are you, Sabrina and Sheba the perfect trio?

Meet Reston’s newest Pet of the Week, Hank. This good boy is looking for his forever home.

Here’s what Hank’s friends at NOVA Pets Alive! had to say about him:

Hank is 6 months old, 40 pounds and an all around good boy! He gets along with other dogs and doesn’t appear to be bothered by cats.

His foster mom says: “Hank is a sweet, friendly boy who bonds very quickly and will not let you out of his sight but is not obtrusive — will just sit or lay calmly nearby. He is good at matching the pace of the surroundings; if we are on a walk or playing he is excited and active, but when relaxing he is quiet and relaxed as well. He is a great dog and any adopter would be lucky to have him.”

Are you and Hank the perfect match?

Meet Reba, this week’s Reston Pet of the Week. Reba is a 9-month-old, 35-pound dog thought to be a Labrador and pointer mix. She is being boarded now and is up for adoption through the group K-9 Lifesavers.

The rescue organization uses volunteer foster homes across the D.C. metropolitan area and will participate in the 10th annual Home 4 the Holidays pet adoption event at Reston Town Center on Nov. 1. The adoption event will be held from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 11900 Market St.

Here’s what K-9 Lifesavers had to say about Reba.

This country girl from Georgia is ready for your home! She’s so cute in person that her picture doesn’t do her justice. She’s very smart and eager to play in the summer sun. Reba is the perfect age for training and socialization. She would make a great addition to any size home. Summer lovin’ is all she craves!!! And of course your forever home too!

Meet Lucy, this week’s Reston Pet of the Week. Here is what her owner, Mark, has to say about her:

Lucy is our very special Foxhound that we love very much! She was originally fostered and then adopted through A Forever-Home Rescue Foundation in Chantily, VA and just made the big move to her own home in Reston with us earlier this year. Lucy may have a loud bark, but is a very friendly dog, especially to women. She’s not much for playing, but she loves to sniff.

Her favorite hobbies include eating any and everything, sleeping in various positions, going on walks on the trails and through the woods, swimming in the Reston lakes, but her favorite activity is cuddling next to her Mom and Dad.

Feel free to stop by and say Hi to Lucy if you see her on our walks around the neighborhood!
