PET OF THE MONTH

Pharoah |
 |
Pharoah
has the potential to be the life of the party. He’s a big
boisterous guy who loves just about everyone. He enjoys running
around the play yards at Animal Friends, and is equally at home
near a kind human friend as he enjoys a tummy rub. Pharoah’s
favorite activity is playing ball. A boy with endless stamina, Pharoah
loves to fetch a ball for hours. Playing fetch allows Pharoah to
release some of his enjoy, of which he has a surplus. Obedience
training would also allow this athlete a chance to work both his
mind and body. Pharoah is not only athletic but also bright, having
already mastered the command “sit.” He’s doing
very well with his housebreaking and responds well to having regularly
scheduled potty breaks. Now Pharoah’s
size might be overwhelming for little guys. We would recommend
that he go to a home without infants or toddlers. We know he means
no harm, it's just that at times he plays a little too enthusiastically
for tiny tykes or couch potatoes. Pharoah definitely would fit
into an active family best. He’s not one for chilling out
or hanging around in front of the television set. If you can,
however, offer Pharoah an active lifestyle, he will certainly
reward you daily with vigorous tail wags and sloppy doggie kisses.
Pharoah would do best as an "only child", he's not very
pleased with the company of other dogs.

Amaretto
is a pretty gray and white kitty who came to Animal Friends as
a stray after first having been taken in at another local shelter.
But our Amaretto is a friendly and sociable gal, and she has told
us that she definitely is a house cat who does not want to live
outdoors or on the streets.
Amaretto likes people, and she loves to be petted, especially
around her face and ears. (She admits that she doesn’t like
to be petted near her hind end, please.) And although brushing
isn’t her favorite pastime, Amaretto is lovable and sweet
whenever you hold her. And tasty kitty treats are sure to win
over Amaretto’s friendship!
She's endearing and also is playful and curious. The minute you
open her cage door, she hops right out to explore her surroundings,
telling us that there are just so many cool things to discover
in this world if a cat only takes a few minutes to look for them.
And if Amaretto spots a moving laser light, she’s off and
running after it, determined to catch the little red dot before
it disappears. The truth is that Amaretto is such a good-natured
and fun-loving cat that she’d fit well into a home with
adults, teenagers, and perhaps another playful feline.
Most people know amaretto as a liqueur that can be served as an
after-dinner drink. However, if you stop at Animal Friends and
ask for Amaretto, you’ll meet an adorable and friendly gal
who might just fill your heart with the warm and sweetly intoxicating
love of a very special kitty! If you’ve been thinking about
adding a cat to your family, you owe it to yourself to meet this
furry sweetheart named Amaretto.
