Pets of the Week for Jan. 18

Our pets of the week are Bright Eyes and Bonnie. Bright Eyes is a very handsome, 9-month-old male tabby.  He ended up at the shelter as a result of a divorce. Bright Eyes has a noble look about him and a calm demeanor. He is just waiting for another chance at his forever home.  
    Bonnie is a very sweet, senior Jack Russell terrier. She was found wandering the streets and no one has come to claim her. Bonnie loves everyone and gets along with other dogs and also does fine with cats. Can you give Bonnie a home for the rest of her life? She will be so grateful and make a faithful, little friend.
    The Danville-Boyle County Humane Society is having a fur sale. Kittens are two for the price of one and adult dogs and cats are $20 off the regular adoption fee. Prices include spay or neuter surgery and much more. If you are considering adding a pet to your family for the new year, please come to the shelter and visit the beautiful animals waiting for new homes. Also, many of our available pets may be viewed at our website www.homes4pets.org.
    Our next obedience class will be 12:30 p.m. Feb. 5 at Stuart Powell Ford on the Danville bypass. The class, taught by dog trainer Cheri Carbone, is free for those who have adopted from a shelter or rescue. Others are welcome to join in for a small donation to the Humane Society.
    The humane society urgently needs more volunteers to help on weekend afternoons at our adoption center at the PetSmart at Brannon Crossing in Nicholasville. To learn how you can help with the rewarding work of placing homeless animals with their new forever families, please contact our volunteer coordinator by e-mail at humanevolunteer@gmail.com.    
    The humane society welcomes donations of Purina puppy chow and Purina cat food and kitten chow along with bleach, paper towels, laundry detergent, dish detergent and hand soap. We always need used towels and blankets. Your donations to the shelter are greatly appreciated.
     Low-cost, high-quality spay or neuter surgery is available for pet owners with low and fixed incomes. For an appointment, call our Happy Paws Clinic today at (859)691-1137.  Please help control pet over-population by having your pet spayed or neutered.
