Adopt a pet (Feb. 18, 2017)
Tasha, an 8-year-old female Labrador retriever mix, is available for adoption from Kansas Humane Society.
Why am I smiling? I’m going home, soon. If you play your cards right, you may get to take me home with you. How cool would that be? I say it would be super cool. I’m goofy and fun. I’m sweet, too. You’ll love me, I promise. I’ll definitely keep your life interesting. That’s why the staff here call me a “Goofball,” because I’m always coming up with ways to make them laugh. What can I say? I just like to see my people with a smile on their face.
Also available at KHS:
▪ Fancy, 2-year-old female American pit bull terrier mix
Hey there. I’m Fancy. Come let me show you my “fancy” moves. I love to play fetch and tag, and run around with my friends. I guess that’s why they call me the “Life of the Party” here at KHS. I’m just a happy gal. In fact I was wagging my tail so hard I actually hurt it. But the folks here at the shelter wrapped it up for me, and I went right back to playing. I’d love to play with you. Won’t you come meet me? I’ll be waiting.
▪ Otis, 10-year-old male shepherd mix
Hey there, kid. Don’t let these gray hairs around my chin fool ya, I’m still young at heart. The staff here at the shelter call me a “Goofball” because I’m always hamming it up, trying to put a smile on people’s faces. You know what would put a smile on my face? Having a home of my very own and someone to love me. I’m a sweetheart deep down and I’d love to have a best friend who is equally as sweet. So come by and see me. I betcha anything that you’ll fall in love with me, instantly.
▪ Charlie, 10-year-old male cat, domestic shorthair mix
I’d like to think I’m running the show down here at KHS. My cat friends and I are having a great time, but I would really love to go home soon. I’ve got a fun and confident personality, and I do everything in a big way. I like to be noticed, and when you’re as cute and spunky as I am, there’s nothing wrong with that. I’m adventurous, but have no fear. I’ll always make plenty of time for affection and purrs for you. Need some spice in your life? I will be that and much more.
▪ Jenna, 10-year-old female cat, domestic shorthair mix
I am a very sweet girl who loves attention. I will greet you at the door and rub up against your legs and head-butt your hand to let you know that I want you to pet me. Sometimes I will meow to remind you that you haven’t given me enough attention lately. Don’t worry, I’m not needy about it. I like my quiet time, too, and am just as happy lying at your feet or close by. I might do best in a quiet home that allows me to be myself and not have to share my people with too many other pets. I can be pretty shy if there is too much activity or noise going on. If you are looking for a lifelong companion who doesn’t get into trouble and is easy to have around, please come see me today.
