Pet of the Month
Fun & Friendly With Lots Of Love To Share!
Our original Pet of the Month, Snowbell, has been adopted. Last month in our BMW newsletter we featured our first cat, Pizza Pie, and I'm glad to say Pizza Pie has a new home also. We do not know the names of the proud families that have adopted these two, but we wish them all the best with their new companions. With so many animals in need of homes, it is so nice of someone to open up their hearts and homes to Snowbell and Pizza Pie! Look over this month’s Pet of the Month on all three of our newsletters, which are available on our website, and maybe you, too, can open your home to a wonderful new pet.
