Wild About Cats!

The UK Wildcats are the #1 seed for the NCAA Basketball Tournament and the Lexington Humane Society has the spirit!  March is their "Wild About Cats" month where certain kitties have a mere $19 adoption fee!  There are discounts on the "Wild About Cats" clothing so everyone can show off their spirit and support the LHS!  Also, each day, a local celebrity is featured wearing their Wild About Cats clothing while holding one of the many adoptable kitties at the Lexington Humane Society.  C'mon and join in the fun!

Matt and I took a look at the adoptable kitties.

Here are a few we were wild about: 

First is the lap loving, loud purring, Gillie.  Gillie is all ready to hang out with you while you cheer on the Big Blue to victory!  Gillie is a 1 yr old female tabby with beautiful green eyes. 

Next is Sylvia.  She's a 2 yr old domestic short hair with the coolest, funkiest, fun coloring called tortoise shell.  It's like a brindle/calico mix but without any white.  She has her party outfit on and is ready to hang out with a family.  Beware, she purrs often and loudly!  Her purring goes right along with her happy go lucky attitude.

Finally is the ever playful Riley.  Riley is a female domestic short hair black cat with some flecks of white fur mixed in.  She is 2 yrs old and has been at the LHS since 4/11.  She's more than ready to chase the bouncing ball around your home and entertain you with her antics and athleticism.  That is, after she makes herself look purrrrfect...

GO BIG BLUE!

Will You Be MIne?

Meet Baby..
She's a 1 yr old hound mix with a big heart.  She had a tough start in life when she came to the Lexington Humane Society with a bad case of mange at the age of 3 months.  She is fully recovered and continues to do her part in being a good citizen.  She passed her obedience training through the Blackburn Correctional Facility program and now she's ready to find her perfect home.  She has been at the LHS for almost a year and is anxious to show a family what a good contributor she can be to family life. 

She can be a great comedian and a good listener for you.  She wants to be your something special.

Dogs aren't the only ones looking for good homes.

Meet Orchid!  Orchid is a pudgy fun loving casual female kitty.  She's about 1 1/2 yrs old and came to the LHS as a stray.  We found her in her cage laying on her back with all four paws in the air.  She was relaxed and without a care in the world.  

Juicy Juice is another friendly feline looking for a home.  She's about 3 1/2 yrs old.  She loves a good warm lap to nestle into.   She was a little overwhelmed by us at first but soon the purring motor was turned on full force.

These are only a few of the beautiful animals looking for their forever homes.  This Valentines Day - won't you consider Adopting Love at the Lexington Humane Society.

Everythings Better With Bunnies

Cute cuddly bunnies!  The Lexington Humane Society has a few that are looking for their forever homes. 

The top photo is Bunnicula - an extremely sweet female.  She enjoyed being held, and snuggling in the nitch of your arm.  Those bright white whiskers!  They just pop off her black nose.   She's active, curious and absolutely sweet and friendly.  I could have held her for hours...

The softest bunny I've EVER felt (EVER!) was Bugs...

Bugs has a cool tortoise shell coloring.  Her fur is short and has the feel of velvet.  She's a pretty, outgoing and curious bunny.  She was hopping all around the "Get Acquainted" room at the Lexington Humane Society.  She was very busy grooming herself to perfection.  Diva?

Finally,  I couldn't resist photographing this cutie!

His name is Snowdrop.  He has the most fabulous face! 

Snowdrop was  a little shy in front of the camera but slowly came out of his shell to investigate.

The Lexington Humane Society has all kinds of furry friends looking for homes.  Bugs, Bunnicula and Snowdrop are only a few of the many cute and loving creatures looking for their forever homes.

These bunnies have been spayed/neutered and are ready to be adopted. Won't you Adopt Love at the Lexington Humane Society?

Beastly Fun Ball

There's No Place Like Home...

That was the byline at the Wizard of Pawz themed 2011 Lexington Humane Society's Beastie Ball. 

Everyone was there including the Tin Man and Toto.

Well maybe not everyone.  I did not find any wicked witches or flying monkeys in the course of the evening fun. 

As people arrived, they walked down the yellow brick road and had their photo taken with Dorothy and Toto.

Guests continued to follow the yellow brick road towards the Emerald City and along the way, they passed the hundreds of item up for auction.  There were lots of great holiday gift ideas available in the auctions whether it be live, silent or super silent auctions.  Some people went away with wonderful finds such as a vacation to St. Lucia! 

Dinner was served inside the Emerald City.  A few of Toto's friends (who are up for adoption) hung out with the scarecrow and other characters of the Wizard of Pawz during dinner.

and then the live auction began...

The bidding was lively and fun!

After the live auction, Joey and the Cruisers began to play and everyone streamed out onto the dance floor.  

The night was fun and ultimately for all the adoptable pets at the Lexington Humane Society, there will be no place like home...

Thanks to the supporters of the Lexington Humane Society and please think about the LHS when you look for your next pet and Adopt Love!

Lovable Fun Fall Kitties

Fall is a fun time if you're a cat.  There's nothing like pouncing on the falling leaves and hiding in leaf piles in the yard.  Fun, fun, fun when you're a cat!!

The Lexington Humane Society has many kitties waiting for their forever homes where they can play in leaf piles.   Today I'm showcasing two friendly males who have been hanging around long enough.

First is Bah Bah.  He's about 4.5 yrs old.  He's slightly shy but gets over his shyness very quickly.   Once he's over his shyness he wanted to nestle in and snuggle. 

Bah Bah has pretty black and white unique markings which makes him stand out from the other cats.  He loved a scratch under his chin and around his neck.  He has a sweet face and kind eyes to go along with his mellow and sweet personality.  He has a career in being a lap cat ahead of him for sure.  He was certainly good for the camera!

Our other subject was Caesar.  Caesar is a polar opposite of Bah Bah...

Caesar is a 1 yr old male tabby cat.  He is outgoing, curious and full of action.  Let's just say he was a little bit tougher to photograph because he was on the go checking everything out.

Caesar shared a loving personality with Bah Bah.   Caesar loved to be held and you can even rub his belly.  He's a favorite among the volunteers at The Lexington Humane Society because of his infectious personality.  He's guaranteed to put a grin on your face.  That's why I'm surprised he's been at the LHS for about 190 days!  This guy is born to love a family and keep smiles on their faces!!

If you're looking for a fun cat like Caesar or a loving cat to keep your lap warm in winter like Bah Bah, look no further than the Lexington Humane Society and ADOPT LOVE today!!
