Slim Jim wants YOU!

Hey folks, it's Blitz here again. Yup, this sexy, slender orange boy is still waiting for you to come take me home. The perfect time to come for a visit is Wednesday December 10. The shelter is celebrating "Home for the Holidays". There will be treats for people and pets, and well as 2 local celebrities begging to get out of the dog kennels. Finally, those humans will get a taste of caged life! So stop on by for some fun, and ask to meet me while you are there. And don't forget about our Shadow cat adoption program. If you adopt a wonderful kitty friend (like me), you can also adopt a black or grey cat from the shelter for no charge! It is always a challenge to get black pets adopted, and we hope this will help more pets find their forever homes this Holiday season.


Once you've stopped by the shelter and found your forever friend (remember, my name is Blitz) on Wednesday December 10, it is time to check out Paws and Claus - pet pictures with Santa. Swing down to the Lloydminster Exhibition Grounds between 2-8, and Santa Claus himself will be there to grant your pet's holiday wishes. The shelter staff wants to remind everyone to make sure their pets are under control at all times, so please bring a leash or pet carrier.

As the weather turns colder, people become more aware of stray pets in their community. Every animal deserves a warm place to sleep, and fresh food and water. So if you see a homeless pet fending for itself in this cold weather, please bring it by the shelter!

Thanks friends, so glad you stopped by for a chat, Love Blitz.

Halloween Fun!

Hmmmm, I'm afraid I reported an error in my last blog post. But luckily, I have been given another chance. It's Blitz here, and I just wanted you all to know I did not go to Saskatoon. I am still hanging at the shelter in Lloydminster, waiting for my new owner. I have a new kennel mate, a little kitten. I like this new friend, but she keeps hissing at me! Good thing I am such a sweet boy, I will have won this kitten's love in no time.

On Halloween, the shelter had our first annual Spooktacular Midnight Madness Adopt-a-thon‏. I'm such a great looking orange pumpkin color, I thought I might get adopted. Not this time, but there were 2 rabbits, 4 cats and 5 dogs adopted, which is fantastic! Everyone who came down had fun, and the staff really looked great in their costumes. Next year will be bigger and better than ever (although I hope not to be around by then).


So don't forget, if you are looking for a super-sweet, lovable orange man, come check me out. Ask for Blitz, the girls will show you to my "office". Hey, I've already celebrated Halloween here, maybe by Christmas I can be lounging under a tree, sniffing presents.

Meow, Blitz.
