It’s been some time since I’ve had cats, but I’ve always loved them. I’ve had cats in my life, for most of my life. My last two cats were sisters that I adopted from a friend who had been their foster mother. When I went to adopt the one cat, I saw the other and couldn’t bear to split them up, so I ended up with both. They were in my life for 19 and 20 years. Fast forward 10 years later, that itch to get a new cat was just waiting to be scratched. I found myself frequently visiting

We were ready for a dog and wanted to adopt from the HSHV. We knew we could only visit three dogs per trip so we did our research and saw a few small dogs available at the humane society. When we walked two of the smaller dogs, they were a little chaotic for our small house. Then Zeus just happened to be walking by with a volunteer. He was so well behaved and the cutest boy! We took our third and final visit of the day to walk Zeus and it was love at first walk. We adopted him that

Almost a year after the passing of our 10 year old “matriarch” dog, my best friend forwarded an email from HSHV to me about a litter of “Irish Setter/Pit Bull” puppies available.

When I realized that she was more interested in the biggest dogs being walked past than in me, I told her that I had a very special big

(You may guess the end of this story- but read on). We agreed to visit and vowed NEVER to bring home another cat. Upon walking into the lobby there was a
