Adopt a pet (Nov. 29)

Chester the Life of the Party, a 2-year-old male Parson Russell Terrier mix, is available for adoption from Kansas Humane Society.

Alert, alert, alert! Very cute dog alert, everybody. I have the traditional Russell personality: busy, busy and more busy. I’m a thrill-seeker who adores being on the go but also knows how to kick back and receive admiration. I think you should visit me at KHS so you may admire me in person.

Also available:

▪ Buddy the Wallflower, 6-year-old male rat terrier-miniature poodle mix

Stuck in the same old grind and need some change in your life? Would you be interested in a new best friend? I’ve got great fur, good energy and a smile that’s a mile wide. To hear more about me, you’re just going to have to visit KHS.

▪ King the Personal Assistant, 3-year-old male cat, domestic shorthair mix

Good morning/afternoon/evening, my royal subjects. I’m still searching for a castle that I may take over as my own. Of course we can share, but I’ll be determining when our cuddle sessions will be. I love attention, whether I am getting it or giving it. I hope you’re interested in a little bit of royalty, and I look forward to meeting with you.

▪ Mara, 6-month-old female cat, domestic shorthair mix

Look at how photogenic I am! Someday I aspire to be a model, but I know I’m a little too young right now. Maybe you can adopt me and I can practice being cute on your camera roll. That sounds great: When would you like to visit me?

▪ Oona, 4-month-old female cat, domestic shorthair mix

I’m an inquisitive kitty. I like to know what is happening around me, and I have to be “in the know” when it comes to my owner. If you’re cooking breakfast, I’ll be right by your feet. If you’re watching TV, I’ll be in your lap for petting time. Does this sound amazing, or what? Come see me at KHS soon.
