Meet Joela and Joclyn

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Their Mama was an outdoor cat who had her kittens in a flower bed. The finder reached out to rescuers in North Carolina to see if they could keep her safe while she raised her kittens. Joela is on the more shyer side, but once you spend some time with her and she becomes comfortable, you’ll this duo is very playful and love attention. Playing with their toys, snuggling in the hammock, and enjoy feeding time. Take one of these sweet kittens home with you and you won’t be disappointed!

Peaceful Transition At City Hall

Posted on by Pat D

I visited City Hall last week on the first Monday following the inauguration of our new Mayor, Council and School Committee members. City Hall was as peaceful and serene as I usually find it leading me to appreciate the empowerment behind a smooth transition between administrations, councils and school committees across the state and nation.
