LLLLLLLLLADIES and GENTLEMEN (and those who don't fit neatly in either one of those categories)... START YOUR ENGINES! My name is Jimi and my motor is pretty much always running. You can feel the low rumble of it when you hold me. You might say I'm a Grand Prrrrix champ. I'm a total showstopper of a cat: 13 lb of long and tall with the kind of soft, luxurious hair that makes people jealous (what's my secret? Cat spit.) and a white-tipped tail. I ooze charisma from every pore. I've got magnetism running through my veins. You know what else I've got running
Are you in a rut? Lonely? Life starting to feel a little tedious? Well, my name is Grande and I've got an offer you'd be a fool to pass up! Maybe your bed is a little too spacious. Maybe you think your mailman seems suspicious (frankly, I agree) and you need someone to keep him at bay. Maybe your walks in the park are too efficient and you wish you had someone to remind you to stop and sniff the roses. Fear not, noble human, because I'm here to tell you the secret to happiness: Introducing THE DOG ®! The Dog's

When my person picked me out, he made a promise to me. "Forever." We were going to be a family for the rest of our lives. I was chosen and loved. He named me "Cookie." Sometimes, no matter how much you're loved, things don't turn out the way you expected. For a while, they told me, "Don't worry, Cookie, he'll come back for you soon." And then, they told me, "I'm sorry, Cookie. He isn't going to get better this time. We have to find you another home." Another home? What will that be like? Will it be warm and comfortable
A good dog is like good toilet paper: soft, strong, and always there when you need it! My name is Soma and I tick all those boxes. You can tell how soft I am just by looking at me! Don't worry- it's not just fur-deep. I've got a big ol' soft heart, too! I'm a cuddly, super-loving girl who is instant friends with everyone I meet. I want nothing more than to be close to my human, ideally, at all times. I'm a big dog- 74 lb! I'm not sure what breed mix I am or where this unusual silvery color comes
They say that blue cats are good luck. If you have a blue cat in your life, it's guaranteed to get better. Who is "they?" Don't ask me. But, personally, I believe it! I Give it the Dino seal of veracity. I mean, everyone I encounter seems to instantly become happier and calmer the moment they touch me. That can't be a coincidence, can it? Sure, sure... maybe it's because, as soon as someone comes into my apartment, I come running and try to climb into their arms. If you don't pick me up or sit down to let me
Why am I wearing a chicken on my head? It's because I'm just a little TOO magnificent! I wouldn't want you to be intimidated, you know? And also, I don't want you to look at this noble countenance and think, "Check out all that pomp and circumstance. I bet that guy's too respectable to be any fun." You guys, I'm nothing BUT fun! My name is Splat, by the way. See? Hardly any gravitas at all. With this chicken on my head, you might even say I'm... eggcentric. Anywho, now that I've put you at ease, let me get into the
Whatcha doin'? Can I help? I bet I could contribute in ways you've never even thought of! My name is Beverly, by the way. I'm eight months old. So I'm old enough to be past the "fragile baby" stage, but I'm still a kid! I bet life will be pretty sweet once I'm your cat. I love to play. I love my cat friends. And I especially love my human pals! Right at first, I can be a little shy. There's a lot of activity here and it's sensible to be cautious, right? I mean, I live in a public place. But I'll
Code name: Nala. That's right. I may be disguised as a pink fluffy teddy bear, but I'm a little dog! Did I fool you? That's okay. Don't feel bad if I did. It's not that I'm a master of disguise. It's that I exude "pink fluffy teddy bear" vibes! When people talk about all the things a dog can teach you, I'm the dog they're talking about. The open-heartedness. The resilience. The joie de vivre. The unconditional love. The ability to REALLY enjoy a nap. I've got it all!I'm a 24-lb cuddle buddy- a little round around the middle, like
I'm not dreaming of a white Christmas. I've had enough of the white stuff. It's a different kind of Christmas I'm dreaming of. No, I want a warm Christmas. A Christmas with a soft bed and a full belly and maybe even my own Christmas jammies. See, last Christmas, I didn't have any of those things. I was left tied to the shelter fence on Christmas day. As soon as I saw another human (a customer in the parking lot), I pulled loose and ran straight to him, then followed him to the office. Everyone seemed really concerned, especially because
