"Bean"
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Birthday: April 2006
We adopted Bean when he was only a few weeks old from one of our
clients, Pam, who found him and his 2 tiny sisters in her yard.
Pam brought them in for us to examine and we fell in love with the little
black and white kitten.(One of our other clients, Nelda, who happened
to be in the reception area at the time took home the other 2!)
Bean is a friendly guy and is often found greeting our clients at their cars. When he isn't socializing, he can be found upside-down in his bed in the
reception area.
"Tiger"
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Birthday: April 2006
Tiger is our long-haired orange kitty. He was willed to us years ago and
fit in quite well with our large menagerie (4 cats at the time!). Tiger
and Bean are good friends and enjoy lounging in the sun together in the
backyard.
"Lulu"
Lulu was born in 2004 at a sheep ranch in West Petaluma with a bum rear
leg. The rancher placed a splint on her leg and
housed her in the safety
of his barn in the hopes her leg would heal. Unfortunately, it didn't
heal properly and she
was left with a limp, making her prime picking for
predators. We heard about her story through a client of ours and
adopted
her within a few days. We took x-rays of her leg and found her limp was
caused by congenital problems and was not fixable. Today, you may not
even notice her limp! She is a such a gentle soul with the sweetest
face.
She LOVES being fed sheep treats! (ask us for a few treats to feed
her the next time you're in!)
"Toby"
Toby was born in 2005 as a 'bummer' lamb. The term 'bummer' means the
mother abandoned her lamb
which can happen for many reasons. We were in
search of a friend for Lulu and put the word out to
the local sheep
ranchers. We got Toby when he was just days old and immediately began
bottle-feeding him.
What an endeavor that was! Young lambs need to be
fed every few hours so we all took turns bringing him home
(some of us
letting him lay on the couch with us!) He was a joy to raise and when
the time came for us to introduce him to Lulu,
she embraced him with a
gentle maternal instinct. Today, he is a happy and healthy sheep!
