Pet of the Week-Molly

Posted on by Alicia Pensarosa

pet of the week, molly, dog

Hello!  My name is Molly, I am a two-month-old Retriever/Shepherd mix.   I am staying at the Cape Ann Animal Aid (CAAA) located at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter in Gloucester.   I am a sweet and affectionate girl, I love people, other pups and love to have fun.  My siblings are here with me too.  I know that having a pup has it’s challenges, but once I am through the “puppy stage” there will be many rewards.

Save June 8 at 3 p.m. at Stage Fort Park for the Rescue Reunion!   This will be a free, family-friendly event to celebrate the adoption of your dog(s) and provide a space to reunite with the staff and volunteers at the CAAA. Whether your dog was rescued locally in MA, Puerto Rico, Georgia, Alabama or another southern state, you will be able to find out more about your pup’s background, rescue situation and/or meet litter-mates!

As you can see, I love having fun and I think the next thing I want to try is to skateboarding!

Fatima

My name is Fatima, my sister and I are at the Cape Ann Animal Aid (CAAA) located at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter,  Four Paws Lane, Gloucester.  We are friendly and outgoing pups and very eager to find families to adopt us.  We are affectionate and active three-month-old pups who are Fox Terrier/Beagle mix with tan-and-white coats.  We will be small to medium when we are all grown.

Everyone is grateful for all the friends who walked at Pride Stride.  Also, something else I keep hearing about being grateful for is Cindy Oliver.  Cindy is retiring after nearly 20 years of dedicated service to the CAAA.  Everyone is going to miss her.  Member of the public, volunteers and friends are invited to stop by and say farewell to Cindy and enjoy some refreshments on Sat., May 4 between   11 a.m. – 3 p.m. right here at the shelter.  We love refreshments, but we all love Cindy more!

Sporty Spice

Hello!   My name is Sporty Spice and I am a happy and playful three-month-old female pup who is Chihuahua Shiba Inu with a beautiful cream-and-white coat.   I will be small to medium size when I am fully grown.   I can’t wait to meet my new family!  If you would like to meet me, I amat the Cape Ann Animal Aid located at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter in Gloucester. Check our website at: CapeAnnAnimalAid.com    I am spending a lot of time with other pups, visitors and volunteers and I get along well with everyone.   Someone asked me if I am part rabbit because of my ears! I love having big ears because I can hear all the great things everyone is saying about me – one of the volunteers just said I am a sweet pup and then she picks me up and gives me a hug, brushes me, takes me for a walk, feeds me and I get another hug before she leaves – this is the life!

Pet of the Week- Joey

Posted on by Alicia Pensarosa

Joey

 

My name is Joey. I think I am about five-years-old.  I have a handsome white-and-tiger coat.  I found myself homeless as an adolescent, I lived on the harsh streets in Boston alone.  Along the way, I met some wonderful friends who were part of a feeding program.  These human friends would come out each night and feed the cats who lived on the streets.  I was so grateful for the kindness they showed me.   One of my favorite’s was Ms. Patty – she would feed the feral cats who were not friendly to me at all.  Ms. Patty realized at one time I must have been a house cat.   I worried about Ms. Patty traveling alone at night and I would keep her company and safe along her route.   We would go the library and three other stops before going right to Ms. Patty’s own front door.   The kind ladies thought it would be best if I were placed in a shelter where I could find a loving family.   I am now at the Cape Ann Animal Aid, located at the Christopher Cutler Animal Shelter, Four Paws Lane, Gloucester.   Check out their site at www.CapeAnnAnimalAid.com

The shelter here is beautiful – and so are the staff and volunteers who treat me like Ms. Patty did!

Phoebe

HELP!  Now that I have your attention…my name is Phoebe.  I am a sweet girl.  My brother Dillon and I are at the shelter located at the Cape Ann Animal Aid, located at the Christopher Cuter Rich Animal Shelter, Four Paws Lane, Gloucester.

We had to be given up after seven years as out owner’s small child is allergic to cats.   So, we are looking for another happy home and hoping that we can be adopted together as we have never been apart.  We are not allergic to people, we love them.   If you have the space in your home and heart to adopt us both, we would be jumping with you and we will have lots of fun and you will always have someone to talk to and you will always have a happy heart.

Lanister

Hi!  I am looking out the window here at the Cape Ann Animal Aid located at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter in Gloucester.

The shelter here is amazing – they have everything and the volunteers and staff are so kind, gentle and caring. Check out our website at: CapeAnnAnimalAid.com

If you have the time and energy for an active pup like me, Lanister; who is a three-month-old, Shepherd mix, stop by and visit me. Yes, pups are a little work, but we give so much back in return.  My siblings and I are so loveable and eager to learn.

The reason why I am looking out the window, the nice volunteer is walking another pup and I want her to come in as I really need a back rub!

Cheryl writes in…

“I made a fabulous connection for Bella…a better home than I could provide…still looking for a home for Z…if possible could you repost his bio…I would love to think they could be in the same area and maybe be able to run together once in a while…

Again Thank You for your help,
Love and Light,
Cheryl”

mr. z, adopt, dog

Let’s find Mr. Z a new home! I’m sure he would love to be someone’s valentine.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

~Alicia

 

UPDATE: Mr. Z found a good home and he’s near his old friend, Bella!

“The homes are so perfect for each dog and get this…they are going to be just about across the street from each other…REALLY how sweet is that. They can still have a romp on the beach and a visit now and then.

Bella is going to a gentleman that is retired and will give her all the love and attention she needs. And honors her age.

Z has gone to a home with a young black lab and a gentleman that lives for his dogs….and the funny thing….Z seemed to be the calmest of the 3…I never thought I’d see the day…lol He is the good ole boy of the house.”

pet of the week, cat, kitty

My name is Duke!    I actually came to the shelter by mistake.  I was an outdoor barn cat and was mistaken for a stray.   It was decided because of my ear that I should become an indoor cat.   I have a unique ear that they call a cauliflower ear.  The condition was caused by an ear infection that has now cleared up.   I am a friendly guy who likes people better than horses, and now I am looking for a nice warm home and family to love me.   I will need to have my ear checked to keep me in top notch shape.   If you would like to meet me, please stop by the Cape Ann Animal Aid located at the

Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter in Gloucester.

I hear everyone talking about the Winter Ball on February 9 from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. at Cruiseport Gloucester, Six Row Square, Gloucester.   Check our website at CapeAnnAnimalAid.com for details!
