This pink-nosed, golden-eyed gal has all the makings of a true diva, who likes to consider herself above common cats, worthy of worship and adoration from a forever home. Marci needs a bit of TLC; she appears to have nursed a litter of kittens and now needs the spa treatment to gain a bit of healthy weight and feel good again. Marci is a bit sniffy with the other cats in her shelter room, but is still getting used to things. Marci loves to be petted and adored and enjoys honeysuckle toys. Please speak to the adoption desk if you would like to meet with me.  Included in the adoption fee: - spay surgery (done before being placed up for adoption) - Microchip - First set of vaccinations - and so much more!     http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10380609info@joefm.ca (J'lyn Nye)http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10380609Mon, 07 May 2012 17:09:27 GMTPet of the Week is Va-Va!  Va-Va is a handsome, solid black and white guy whose good looks are just the beginning of his sweetness.

This warm guy has lots of love to share, and just needs the right person or people to give it to. He enjoys swatting at teaser toys, snuffling against catnip toys and ...http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10378617info@joefm.ca (J'lyn Nye)http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10378617Tue, 01 May 2012 15:42:20 GMTGarth Brooks (ID #51407) is a neutered male cat who just is 3 years old and has many “Friends in Low Places” here at the shelter. This guy is a fun-lovin cowboy who can be a bit shy when you first meet him but boy does he perform when he warms up to you!He likes to be scratched behind the ears and would love to be “Wrapped Up in You.”For more information on adopting Garth Brooks, please visit the Edmonton Humane Society today!Included in the adoption fee:- neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption)- Microchip- First set of vaccinations - and so much more!  http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10371775info@joefm.ca (J'lyn Nye)http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10371775Tue, 17 Apr 2012 13:40:42 GMT Big Man on Campus (ID #50366) is a neutered male cat who is just turned 2 years old.

The EHS is against this kind of Easter "pet".  If you someone is looking to get a rabbit any time of the year, they are advised to only do so after careful consideration and research, and the Society asks that someone adopts from the EHS or a similar organization since a person would be provided with counseling and guidance to ensure that the pet will be a good fit for whoever the pet is for.  In addition, all rabbits adopted from the EHS are spayed ...http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10367142info@joefm.ca (J'lyn Nye)http://www.joefm.ca/Blog/EHS_Pet_blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryID=10367142Tue, 03 Apr 2012 16:05:11 GMTGinger (ID #50902) is a female, spayed guinea pig who is 2 years old.

His fur is shaved, and he will require grooming as it grows back and for future knot control. Neighborino doesn't like being picked up but enjoys gentle attention while near you rather than in your arms. Listen to his body language/meows as he will let you know when he's had enough.
