Pricilla -   Mommy wanted to adopt another kitty since she already was the guardian of my brother and sister. So she went on the Internet to check out the local animal shelter's website. She noticed another little black female kitty that was available for adoption. I was also featured on the website, but I was not up for adoption when she was looking. She headed down to the animal shelter with grandma asked about the little black kitty, and found out she was already adopted…Thank goodness, because she would have not adopted little ol me. While she was looking around for another kitty to take home she noticed my picture on the door. It said that I just went up for adoption two hours ago. Mom asked to see me and was put into a waiting room to view me. I came in and then saw my mom for the first time, I started purring, kissing, and rubbing up against mommy. She visited me for over a half hour and said to the lady that she would like to take "this little sweet heart" home with her, and give her the best life ever. I was so HAPPY!!! ..Well, there you go, that is how I arrived at my home, and became part of mommy's family. I just LOVE it here! Mommy takes lots of pretty pictures of me, and she made me this cool website for me. I really like it, pretty don't you think? ..Truth be told, I'm a VERY spoiled kitty, but no one has to know that. Let it be our little secret. *wink* ;-) My website: http://www.canadiankitty.ca Cheers - Priscilla Domingo In Style....   This is our 5-1/2 year old cat, Domingo, posing with Doug and me before our wedding. We are told he is a Siamese mix with tabby point. We adopted him from the shelter when he was 4. Having learned that he is quite the escape artist, we are sure that he simply ran away from a good home one day. The problem is, he is not at all good at finding his way back home once he makes it out the door! Domingo became his name for two reasons. First because he is a very vocal kitty with a high meow so we named him after the famous tenor. Second, it was fitting because he was adopted on a Sunday and that is the meaning of Domingo in Spanish. :-) You can probably guess from the photos who is the most doting cat parent here. Jen- Sammy Sweetest   Sammy is a five month old Black Lab with a mellow attitude and a fun personality. She loves to play with her toys and take walks at the park while wearing her favorite purple sweater. She also loves when her Mimi Roxy (my mom) brings her home a bone or small treat every day. In fact if my mother returns home WITHOUT anything in her hands Sammy sulks around, looking for her "new toy". In the pictures here she is posing with her buddy Alfalfa for an Easter photo-shoot. Sammy was actually given to me by my brother who received her as a Christmas present and realized that he was unable to care for her. What luck! She turned out to be a very intelligent little dog and was potty trained at 10 weeks old. This pup enjoys snuggling and giving sloppy dog kisses. Without a doubt my pride and joy...   Rachael - Massachusetts

Sydney The Adventurer...   My Mom took me from Texas to Norway... A southern belle to Norwegian Adventurer...  I am having so much fun, but miss my warm weather, but it should be fun trying cross-country skiing soon.  I do miss my Grandmimi, but being with my Mom now is great.  I didn't get to be with her for almost 9 months because it took so long to do everything right to have me here.  I will keep everyone updated on my latest adventures...the picture is from my hiking trip...   Laura  W. - Rykkinn, Norway

This is Ms Cori Pilloff   She is a Havanese and is 3 years old. I am so lucky to have her in my life. She is so sweet, loving and special. Recently, she became a Therapy Dog. Cori's light fills my heart and her presence makes a difference to all those that know her.   F. Pilloff Chapel Hill, NC

This is Prada  A two year old Boxer..., Prada loves to shop online for sweaters and coats, shoes however have always been a problem. When she feel sassy she also likes to check out the "Home Depot" for carpet cleaner and other home supplies. Ya'know she hasn't been asked to leave yet. Curt B. - Minneapolis, MN.

Sascha & Lily Im writing on behalf of our beloved cats, Sascha and Lily, to thank you for this wonderful invention! My boyfriend and I took in these sister kittens who were born to a feral mother on the streets of Long Beach. We didn't know what we were getting into. They hid, bit and scratched for 6 months! Once we got them spayed, they mellowed and are now little love bunnies to us. Anyway, right around the time they were 6 months old, the Big Foot. I saw on the internet and ordered (even before we got the cats) had arrived. When the big box arrived, they were already curious. I talked to them to get them excited as we put it up saying, This is for you! They watched from under the bed. They seemed to know it was for them. When we were all done, about an hour later, I thought they'd be all over it immediately. It took them about a half hour to get on it, and they rarely got off of it again! They just LOVE it! They play, sleep, hang out, etc. Sascha, now 2 years old, even plays fetch as I throw the toy across the room and she quickly climbs to the level the toy falls on and brings it back to me over and over and over. When they were really little, each would sleep on the side levels or on the big level on top together (this was our Christmas card picture the first year we had them!) As they got older, they competed for the top level (top bunk), as it is bigger. They've since come to an agreement where Sascha gets it one night and Lily the other. My boyfriend says watching them on the tower is kitty movies for us. Its true! The main reason we thought it was a good idea was because our apartment was tiny, I mean, tiny. So we had to work vertically to get them exercise. Its just been perfect, and I hope this message is read by the inventor of this wonderful invention that absolutely became our cats world! Thank you so much again from all of us! Sincerely, Kathy, Erich, Lily and Sascha

This is Molly   She is the granddaughter of a very, very special cat I had for 8 years, who died of breast cancer.  I was there for Molly's delivery, and she was the last born of her litter and was a breach!!  Without hesitation, I helped ease her out.  I was the first living being to touch her.  I have had a very severe bout with major depression, and when I get to feeling bad, Molly lays on my chest and purrs it away.  When I take a bubble bath, Molly gets in the tub on her own, as it is filling, and takes one, too.  She loves it!  She is my friend, companion, and therapy.  She is one pampered pet, and deserves it!!   Lisa - Oklahoma

Here Is Layla   Our family's bulldog all ready for Halloween.  Layla loves being outside so we thought the best costume for her this year would be a little bumble bee.  Layla is two years old and is a very loyal and loving dog.   S. Savino

This is our kitty Smudgy.   My fiancee and I got her from our Vet a few weeks ago. She is the sweet and cute  with a personality to go with it. She brings lots of joy. Smudgy has a 2 year old sister, Daisy who we are also crazy about.    M. Worthen

Dashing Diesel   Here are the pictures of Diesel looking gorgeous in his tux at my sister's wedding.   Caroline & Diesel

Abby & Chase   Abby (right) came from an abusive home where she was beaten and basically tortured on a daily basis by two young boys. When I adopted her at 4 years old, she was very aggressive with her food and tried to attack anyone who came near her. Now my girl is almost 6 and is one of the best dogs I've ever had. She has overcome so many obstacles in her young life. I am so proud of her. Her friend Chase (left) I adopted at 2 months old. He and his sister came home with my sister and I and not 2 weeks later, both came down with parvo. It took 6 long and painful days of force feeding fluids and antibiotics, but they both made it through and have recently celebrated turning 3 months old. I couldn't have asked for better dogs.   Patricia~ Phenix City, AL

Wilbur is my English Bulldog puppy...   and I love to dress him up in silly outfits. He had multiple orthopedic problems when I got him and spent much of his puppyhood in casts. He's okay now, and quite hyper (though he looks a little defeated in the one picture). Great site! I fell in love with every animal on here.   KO

This is Mistylee   She went to a weiner dog race and it was a lot of fun. She ran in the races and was in the doxie costume parade. It is a fun place and they have it every year at Buda, Texas

This is Lincoln.  He is to say the least,  a proud dog.  He walks with confidence and thinks he is Mr. Cool.  He loves belly rubs and Mexican cheese.  This is a letter from Lincoln to us:  “What can I say? You people are lucky to have me live here.  Look at me.  Is there any dog cuter?  I think not.  Let me sum it up for you.  I’m little and cute, I win.  Got it?  I didn’t notice that a parrot was living here”.  Needless to say, he is correct.  Our precious baby.  Patricia J

This is Chi-Chi   My husband and I fell in Love with Chi-Chi the moment we first saw her. She has us wrapped around her paw...I do not have children of my own, so Chi-Chi is my baby. She goes with us at all times. She loves to travel and she has been about everywhere. She also likes to sit on our shoulders and watch T.V. She loves having her picture taken, as you can tell by this photo..She will always hold a very special place in our hearts.   Debbie & Johnny - Keokuk, Iowa

Hannah & Hunter   We're Hannah (white 6 year plus Lhasa Apso) and Hunter (approx. 4 year old Lhasa/Shih tzu).   We're both rescues.   My mom and dad were arrested and taken away in a police car.  They took me to the animal shelter.  It was a terribly horrible experience.   I was held for 30 days there.  This nice lady (Mom now) came everyday for 30 days!  Mom read to me, sang to me, and brought me treats.  Mom could never touch me for the 30 days because I was being held for the owner's.  Long story short, I became very ill there and mom saw that.  She wrote the district over the shelter and called everyday and left messages for them.  Mom wanted to find out the status of the owner's.  After about 28 days, Mom finally found out that the owner's were in jail in another state!   Mom got to bring me home.  I was shaved all the way and the groomer said she had Never seen such a mistreated dog.   Well, look at me Now.  This is my extreme Makeover - I'm as white as can be and love to play dressup.   My brother, Hunter, was running on the freeway.  We think he may have jumped out of a car.  He wasn't neutered and was a mess as well.   Hunter is the most loving, funny dog.  As soon as you come into our home, Hunter jumps on your lap and just stares into your eyes - as if he's tell you Thank You for coming.   Hunter loves to play with toilet paper cardboard inserts and loves to take WALKS.  We can't say the word or he's at the door.  If Mom even puts on her tennis shoes, he's at the door jumping.   Both of our dogs, Hannah and Hunter Gavin have saved our lives.  They are our joy every Minute of the day.   Love,   Hannah and Hunter   The Gavins-

This is our little Missy.    She's a yorkshire terrier.  She weighs about 2 1/2 lbs right now and probably won't get any bigger than 4 lbs.  She is such a joy !!!   Sharon-

Lobo and Nina       Here are my pride and joy.  Lobo is the handsome Blue (gray) Pomeranian and his "sister" Nina the sassy Papillion.  They love to cuddle when they nap and although they fight like any brother and sister they remain inseparable.  You will note Lobo can't resist tugging at his sister's Christmas hat.  They both have a ton of personality.  Lobo likes to sing along with you and he is quite the singer.  Nina loves to give a ton of kisses and is also very athletic.  She lets her brother chase her all around the house and will then jump up to the highest point of a couch or stairs. Then she  stares down at her poor little big brother who has yet to be able to conquer stairs or tall pieces of furniture.     They are a great addition to my family and we are truly grateful to have so much love from these precious fur babies.   Marlene -Rochester, New York
