Adopt a pet (May 23)

Carrie, a 2-year-old female Labrador retriever mix, 53 pounds, is available for adoption from Kansas Humane Society.

If you like brindle dogs, you’re in luck because I’m as brindle as they come. Aren’t I pretty? I’m sweet, too. I’d be willing to bet a doggy bone that we’ll get along just great. Does that sound like a deal? When will I see you so we can shake paws on it? I hope it’s soon.

Also available:

▪ Karissa the Goofball, 1-year-old female American pit bull terrier mix, 40 pounds

Aren’t I the prettiest gal you’ve ever seen? I mean, just look at my coat: it’s like someone splattered me with cute paint. Well, even if I’m not the prettiest girl, will you bend the truth a bit and make me feel special? I hope so, and I hope you come visit and take me home with you today.

▪ Stitch the Go Getter, 1-year-old male Labrador retriever mix, 75 pounds

Oh dear, I definitely wasn’t ready for my picture to be taken. I hadn’t had my morning coffee yet. Well, I have a great personality and you will see that right off the bat. Getting out and enjoying life is what keeps me going – and the possibility of being adopted by you. Come on out and see me.

▪ Snow the Sidekick, 8-year-old male cat, domestic long-hair mix

What a lovely day! I hear a distant sound like a tweet coming from the window, and the rays of sunshine beaming through the pane. I just love the warmth the sun brings. Do you have sun rays at your house? May I come over and play in them? That would be so great. Why don’t you come to KHS to visit me?

▪ Sadie, 7-year-old female cat, domestic shorthair mix

Hey, the name is Sadie and I know what you’re thinking. I know I’ve got some “cat-itude” but I promise you I’m a very quiet, loving kitty. Low maintenance is what you should expect from me. At 7 years old, I’ve got the basics of being a great feline companion down. I’m in foster care, so call 316-524-9196 to learn how to visit me.
