"Let me start by saying that I am a very playful kitty! I have met Caitlin quite a few times, and she's seen me in all kinds of moods. I know how to be both hyper and relaxed depending on how I feel! Can't you see just how pretty I am? I am actually a very nice cat and will sit on the back of the couch while you watch TV. Please give me a home, here!"

"I'm still at Hope for Life Rescue waiting for someone to come sweep me off my feet. I will need a lot of time to adjust to my new environment and may even hide under something when you first bring me home, so please don't be alarmed if you can't find me for a few days. When Caitlin and I first met, she tried to pet me, but I just leaned away in fear and even ran away from her. Despite the several interactions we have had, I am still warming up to Caitlin so I will need lots of time to adjust to whoever decides to take me. I am not necessarily good with other cats, but if you take me home with the right one, I'm good to go. Please sweep me off my feet, here!"

"I'm adorable, super-sweet, and super-smart! Do I sound like a good match for you? I can be a bit timid at times, so I would like to go to a home with a family who will help me blossom into a wonderful girl! Since I am a beagle, I do have a mind of my own and can wander, so I will need to be kept on a leash when out of the house. If I sound like the pup for you, check me out here!"

"Please don't be fooled by my age; I have tons of pep in my step! I need you to help train me on the leash because I pull on it really hard out of excitement. I need a home with a family who can take me on daily walks and play with me to help work on my weight problem and to also help calm me down. If I sound like a fit, check me out here!"
