Pets of the Week (March 6, 2013)

Mister Marbles

They’re ready to love

Mister Marbles is a 1- to 3-year-old, blue-and-white marbled British Shorthair who was rescued from the cold streets.

He has tested positive for the feline immunodeficiency virus, but negative for the feline leukemia virus and is otherwise a healthy big boy who loves kisses, laps and snuggles. He’s a gentle giant and fine with children, mellow dogs and other FIV-positive kitties. He is neutered, vaccinated and micro-chipped.

Muppet is a young Maine Coon mix who is a sweetheart. The cat has colitis, so she’ll need a little Tylan powder in her food. She is gentle, loving and fluffy. She gets along well with people and other kitties.

Muppet is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped, and has tested negative for the feline leukemia and immunodeficiency viruses.

Both cats are available for adoption. 

To apply, visit www.petfinder.com/shelters/PA586.html or go to the adoption center at the PetSmart at 901 Old York Road in Jenkintown. ••

Wanted: best friend

Chaz is a happy, friendly, medium-sized 1- to 2-year-old terrier mix who loves to cuddle. An active family would be the best fit for him.

Both dogs are available for adoption at Philadelphia’s Animal Care and Control, at 111 W. Hunting Park Ave. Chaz’s tag number is A18767562. Waldo’s tag number is A18939205.
