Pecan – Female – 1.5 years – Pittie mix
Nicknames: Pecan Praline. Energy level: High. Sociability: with people: Sweet like pecan pie! Dogs: Playful, but very energetic. Cats: Unknown
Personality: Meet Pecan! This bouncy, high-energy lady absolutely loves to zoom around the dog park and play with toys. She loves to chase after balls, whip around rope toys, and play with just about any toy you can imagine. She entertains herself very well when given a toy. She can get a bit distracted when walking on a leash, but she does well when corrected. She is very bouncy, and will impress you with her leaps. She seems to love to do gymnastics all over the dog park. She is very sweet with people, but she can be a bit exuberant with her jumping, so she would do best in a home with older children. Miss Pecan requires lots of exercise and/or a large area for her to run around. Come and meet this big love! Likes: Bouncing, eating treats. Dislikes: Walking in a straight line
Gemma – Female – 17 years! – Grey and white shorthair. Nickname: Gemma Bo Bemma. Energy level: Low. Sociability: People: Low energy, but friendly! Cats: Selective… Mostly keeps to herself. Dogs: Unknown
Personality: Meet Gemma! This pretty lady is a whopping 17 years old! However, you would never guess that because she looks so good! She is a friendly girl, but she tends to keep to herself when it comes to other cats. She is very sweet with people, and she would do well in a home with other pets as long as they respect her personal space. She will stick up for herself if she feels like she needs to. She likes to spend her days tucked away above the world in the catwalk in her place of refuge from the chaos below. Come and meet this amazing lady who could be the perfect addition to your home!
