Adopt a pet (Feb. 28)

Handsome Dan the Life of the Party, a 1-year-old male American pit bull terrier mix, is available for adoption from Kansas Humane Society.

Yes, my name really is Handsome Dan. With a face this adorable, how can it not be? I bring the party wherever I go. My cute and spunky attitude always has everybody entertained. So won’t you come adopt me? It’ll be a party every day in your home.

Also available:

▪ Sam the Busy Bee, 11-year-old male American cocker spaniel mix

I’m a dashingly handsome guy, but I’ve got an even more attractive personality. How about my curly coat? Isn’t it splendid? I like to stay busy and occupied; there is no time for idle paws in my life. Let’s do this! Grab the keys and I’ll grab the leash. See you at KHS soon.

▪ Meechi the Couch Potato, 8-year-old female shepherd mix

Hiya! I’m a super-sweet dog looking to make a super-sweet companion. I’d be totally content sitting by your side or taking a casual stroll down the sidewalk. Whatever you have planned for me, I will be truly excited and grateful. I promise I’ll get along with all of your friends too. Swing by KHS today.

▪ Chuck the Secret Admirer, 16-year-old male cat, domestic shorthair mix

Hello, I’m Chuck. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I know the prime of my life has come and gone, but I really need someone now to look after me. Let’s hope the saying “Save the best for last” is really true. I hope to see you soon at KHS. I’m thrilled to find out what my next adventure is going to be.

▪ Ron the Personal Assistant, 6-year-old male cat, domestic medium-hair mix

Hey folks, I’d like to be your helpful buddy. I’ll make sure to lie on the keyboard while you’re surfing the Web. See? Helpful! I’ll even help catch that pesky mouse that likes to crawl around under your sheets. Super helpful! I really am a great guy. Adopt me at KHS and you’ll have a buddy for life.
