White Hot Crush...

Clifford - I met this kitty / panther mix at the Pt Loma Petsmart the other day. He is magnificent !! I have rarely seen such a stark white cat have quite this panther-like build. He had a mellow & sweet disposition and had not been at the adoption center very long and OMG I think he just looked at me!!!!!!! swoon. I am already green jealous of the person that takes this guy home!

Adopt him from FOCAS San Diego - [link]

He made it this far...

Jack - Adorable wee terrier man that I met the other day in El Cajon. He did well while I was taking his picture. This 2 year old's smile is very unique - he has a cleft lip. He is a survivor. Take a moment to stop by the El Cajon Animal Shelter and say hello !

What's Yer Sign?

Ok so there are about 50 bajillion kittens out there right now.
seriously - lots of wee meowers.
so - seeing as many of them are about 6-8 weeks old they would probably all be in Sun Sign Aries.
So just so ya know what type of personalities you might be meeting here is a quote or two from "Astrology for Cats"
Character: Impulsive
Element: Fire
"Likes the limelight and always manages to hold center stage"
"a bit of a show off"
"very good at learning tricks & they work hard at polishing up their acts"
"it knows exactly what it wants, and it wants it now!"
now let's meet some of our players in this cosmic game...
they hale from Rosebud Society Rescue and they are ready to win the adoption game...
from the head of the post we have Julian - I wanted to take him home with me. Seriously rag doll floppy love bug with gorgeous goods to boot.
If you are looking for a Siamese stunner look no further than...

Darcy - beautiful boy that is ready to charm you like the gentleman he is
or perhaps you would prefer to share your pic a nic basket with...

Yogi - teeny tiny adorable buddy that is ready to show you that he is smarter than the average bear
Say you are more in the mood for that sunset explosion look...

Leo - his name may be contradicting his birth sign but this wee one can be your king o da beasts.
Or if your just looking for straight up GQ pose out, pose up, pose a plenty than feast yer eyes on...

Kline - I think the picture says it all. Who will the lucky winner be?
They are all available for adoption with Rosebud Society [link] - check them out !!
