Cats, cats, cats
I posted last weekend about the ongoing need for adoptions at the Peter Zippi Fund for Animals.
My friend Shirley, who with her neighbor does work with some of the feral cat colonies in their neck of the woods here in the South Bay, sent me this photo last night of some kittens they trapped & rescued in April and are now with Peter Zippi awaiting homes.
Lots more where they came from, too.
Click the link above for information on the regular adoption events sponsored by the Peter Zippi Fund in Hermosa Beach along with thumbnail photos and descriptions of the some 50 kittens and cats they have available. The economy, presumably, has really impacted the number of people coming in to adopt in the past month. But meanwhile, the kittens keep coming.
You can call them for an appointment at:310-379-1264.
As for the photo below, what is it about cats being allowed onto tables and counters? I once came home to find my large Australian shepherd mix Mercy standing right in the middle of my dining room table and it totally freaked me out!
And my question about these 4 kitties is what exactly the photographer said or did to get those intent looks?? A mouse danging by its tail? A piece of hot dog?
About the Bloggers
Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
