"You will want to pinch my cheeks when you meet me because I'm so cute. I'm a little shy at first but as long as you wait patiently, I will crawl into your lap and never leave. I'm new to the shelter so the staff is still assessing me, but think I'm a fantastic dog. If you think you have room to give me some time to adjust to your family, check me out here!"

"Can you see how my toes are all spread out like that? That means that I'm very curious and willing to get to know you! I'm a very social kitty who loves to get to know people and other cats so I would be cool if you had a brother or sister for me. I love to greet your friends, family, and even little kids at the door so you won't have to worry about finding me to show me off! Hear more about me on Facebook!"
