I saw an article in the newspaper on a specific cat. When I arrived there that cat was very sweet, but very timid and shy. I went into the “cat room” to look around and this plain-looking, full-grown tabby cat was sitting on the window post. He was very “healthy” looking as well! I gave him a quick glance only because my eye was drawn to two sibling cats that were black with some white. They were so pretty! When I tried to pet them, the plain-tabby cat dashed off his sitting post and intercepted my hand before I could pet the two black cats! How could I ignore that! He chose me and that meant something. “Goober” is not fancy looking and his looks aren’t unique, but he is the most amazing cat I have ever had! I was looking for a cat that wanted to be out in the open and not hide behind furniture all the time. Goober does not hide, in fact, he will do almost anything to get a hand on him. He lives for attention and that is exactly what I was looking for. He is my buddy. He sleeps at my side and waits for my arrival home from work. He has such a unique personality. Although he gets annoyed with my 2 young sons, he would never hurt them. He loves our dog, too! I am so glad he chose me!!!! I probably wouldn’t have chosen the name “Goober”, but after living with him, I couldn’t imagine his name not being “Goober!” Thank you! ~ Tonya P. </div> Tue, 20 Aug 2019 14:51:30 GMT kody@zigitysqueak.com (Kody Aasen) https://www.thehskmc.com/tonya-s-shelter-success-story https://www.thehskmc.com/alyssa-s-shelter-success-story <h3> Alyssa's Shelter Success Story </h3> <div> <img src="https://irp-cdn.multiscreensite.com/1eb5dba2/dms3rep/multi/SSS+1.jpg"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> "I was looking at your website and seen there was a place for pets that have been adopted. 2 years ago my sister adopted a dog from you and gave her to me for my christmas present. She's been the best dog ever! She went to a great home, I'm very fortunate to have her and could not ask for a better dog.  <div> <br/> </div> <div> Her name is Jente. It's norwegian for "girl".  </div> <div> Her adoption name was Sweetness." </div> <div> <br/> </div> <div> ~ Alyssa L.
