Thank you to ann arbor's 107.1 fm and morning host Martin Bandyke for giving the homeless pets a voice!
Listen every Thursday morning around 8:30 for the Pet-of-the-Week segment!
The Pet-of-the-Week is Mila
Mila has a very colorful white and black, checkerboard face. She's very cute, and friendly, and playful.
In fact, the reason she's available for you to adopt her, is that she was too playful for the older cat in her previous home. Mila is a kitten at heart and acts younger than her age. Mila is 4 years old.
Mila has been spayed and is up to date on shots and she is litterbox trained. She's very affectionate and will follow you around as you go about your chores. Mila is in the Up Town Cats room at the shelter; she's the one greeting you as you walk in the door!
Mila is particularly fond of small mouse toys and will ask that you return hers if she accidentally bats it out of the cage. She's one of our Undiscovered Treasures AND she's the 107.1 FM radio PET OF THE WEEK!

The Pet-of-the-Week is Wendy
(LISTEN to the interview about them)
Wendy is quite the diva and will let you know that she should be the most important, and only cat in your life. She's a beautiful 7-year-old, long-haired white cat, who has been bounced around a lot in the past few years.
Wendy's original owners moved and left her behind which was very hard for Wendy to adjust to. Wendy was adopted and returned 10 months later because her new person developed allergies. Poor Wendy! She has been bounced around a lot.
Wendy does not do well in the shelter setting so she has been happily ensconced in foster care.
Wendy's wonderful foster mom reports:
"Wendy is a bit finicky, and she wants things her way, but she comes around to sit in my lap and purr every morning and evening when I sit on the couch. She doesn't mind that the dogs are right there by my side. She's sweet as pie, lovin' the love, and just wants to be petted and smooched. She needs to be someone's beloved and treasured cat! She also LOVES to be brushed and fussed over, which is good because she does need help keeping her fur so beautiful!
Wendy can be adopted now from foster--it's easy, just call and ask us how: 734-662-5585, ext. 111.
Thank you to Ann Arbor.com for hosting a weekly Pet-of-the-Week spotlight on their web site.
The Ann Arbor.com Pet-of-the-Week is Davy
There are so many wonderful things to say about Davy but we thought we'd let him tell you why you should adopt him!
Hi:
" I'm Davy! I'm sweet and smart, or so that's what people say about me here at the Humane Society of Huron Valley!
I know some tricks! I can sit and and sit up. That's me in the picture doing my routine for the wonderful volunteers that walk me daily.
I'm a typical beagle and like to follow my nose to new adventures - I love new adventures. So anyone who is lucky enough to adopt me should know about beagles and our behavior - which is sometimes funny, cute and well also sometimes a little bad, but not too bad. You can't blame us - we just love food! I promise I would make up for anything questionable by giving you loads of love and affection. I love it when you pay attention to me and I will give you unconditional love in return.
I would like a fenced-in yard, a lot of exercise, and a lot of loving! I'm about 2 years old and have been neutered, given my shots and am ready to be adopted now!
Can I be your valentine?"
Thank you to ArborList and the Ann Arbor Observer for featuring a homeless pet!
The ArborList Pet-of-the-Week is Grizzly Girl
Grizzly Girl (or GiGi for short) is our Arborlist.com Pet of the Week! She is only 2 months old and was purchased at a pet store by someone who only kept her for two weeks and then decided she did not have time for a puppy. Unfortunately, this happens all too often and many puppies end up at shelters. Luckily, we hope to find Grizzly Girl her new caring home.
GiGi is an Australian CattleDog/Blue Heeler mix puppy.
She is looking for a person or family who knows about cattle dogs and their herding ways. They usually need a job to do and lots of exercise. GiGi needs a family where any kids are at least 10 or older because she will need consistent training. A family with a fenced-in yard would be best!
GiGi would really benefit from puppy training. HSHV has inexpensive "Head Start Puppy Classes" you can sign up for! GiGi has already been spayed, and given her first puppy shots, and she can be adopted today!
