Gummo's Recipe for an Instant Best Friend This one is perfect for anyone who doesn't have the time for the low-and-slow method of making a best friend. If you want instant love, try this! First, take one cat. Choosing a cat can seem tricky, but your best bet is go for one that's about two years old, heavy for her size, and has extra-dark stripes, big yellow eyes, and a white underside. Those are the sweetest. Add a generous amount of friendliness, an adventurous spirit, and just a liiiiiittle dash of sass. And voila! The sweetest little pal you could possibly ask
Starry starry night, paint your palette blue and gray...My name is Vincent and I'm the kind of guy who feels all the beauty in the world so deeply that it hurts. You wouldn't know it by looking at me! I'm a very friendly and outgoing fellow. I've never met a human I didn't like. I'm the kind of guy who will climb in your lap five minutes after meeting you. I'm okay with all sorts of handling and I love playing with crinkle balls. Right now, I've been in the shelter longer than any of the other cats in my area (218
All that glitters is not gold, but... I am! My name is Abigail and I'm a precious gem of a dog. The very sweetest, or so I'm told. I'm a soft-hearted girl. Full of love, but also sensitive. The shelter is a scary place to live, so I like to take my time assessing new people and situations before I decide that they're safe. With a little encouragement and time, I can handle anything- I just need someone to hold my paw and let me know it's going to be alright. I'm about two years old and came to the shelter as

Are you looking for the sweetest, daintiest, cuddliest little purr machine of a baby angel kitten in the whole of creation? Well, guess what- you've found her! My name is Hal 9000 (yes, I'm a girl) and I'm five months old and petite for my age. I have a little mustache and a super-long tail, all black with like an inch and a half of white at the end. I'm a peace-loving soul. I love people and am almost as happy to be held by a stranger as I am by a friend. I'm fantastic with other cats and love playing
My name is Mako and I'm your future dog. Let's be honest. You decided the moment you saw me that I was the dog for you. Do you really need or want all the details? You already know you want me. But... humor me. I'll tell you anyway. Luckily for both of us, I'm an awesome dog! An easy walker, a handsome gentleman, friendly with all kinds of people, only about a year old, and, at 47 pounds, a medium-sized guy. I'm interested in other dogs, but haven't had an official dog playdate yet. Thing is, if I'm left on my own in
I have two theories about how I got my name (QT). One is that it's to do with where I was found: running around at a Quiktrip. The other is the one I prefer: it's because you can't look at me without saying, "Oh my goodness, what a QT pie!" I'm not fluffy bunny cute. I'm more like... imagine a precocious 7-year-old (I'm actually only one year old, but bear with me) with a Scottish accent telling you facts about space and rude jokes they don't actually understand. I'll make you laugh so hard you can't breathe. I'm rough-and-tumble cute and
