🐍 Feature Friday: Lucy the Ball Python! 🌙

Meet Lucy, a beautiful 5-year-old Ball Python who’s living her best life in a spacious 4x2x2 enclosure! Though she had a rough start - going months without food and being kept too dry - she’s now thriving with the care she deserves. Lucy absolutely loves mealtime, and while she’s a little shy, she’s incredibly calm and patient when handled. True to her nature, she sleeps all day and parties all night! 🌙🐍✨

02/24/2025

Siberian dwarf hamsters (Phodopus sungorus), also known as Russian dwarf hamster, Winter White Hamster, Djungarian hamster, striped dwarf hamster, or Siberian dwarf hamster, are small, endearing rodents native to Siberia and Kazakhstan. They are popular pets due to their small and cute bodies. (Pictures are of one we currently have!) Some facts about them:

👉The term "winter white" derives from the fact that in the wild the hamster changes its fur colour to white for the winter months.
👉Winter white dwarf hamsters reproduce at a faster rate than Syrian hamsters. Phodopus species are able to become pregnant again on the same day that they have given birth.
👉They are known to be slightly grumpy, but when socialized properly, the dwarf hamsters can become quite friendly

Did you know there are hundreds of different pleco species, far beyond the well-known Common Pleco (Hypostomus plecostomus)? With so many unique types, scientists and hobbyists use "L-numbers" to classify them, like the striking L046 Zebra Pleco or the massive L083 Sailfin Pleco! Pictured here is Inspector Pleco (L102), a sleek, black-and-white beauty with a bold pattern. From tiny, colorful varieties to giants, plecos come in all shapes and sizes, making them a fascinating addition to freshwater aquariums. Which L-number pleco is your favorite? 🐟✨

Meet Atticus, Your New Best Friend! 🐾

Atticus is a big, sweet lap kitty with a heart as warm and expansive as his love for cuddles. An old soul at heart, he finds his happiest moments snuggled up with his favorite humans, whether you're curled up on the couch for a TV marathon or sharing cozy moments in bed.

This laid-back charmer got along wonderfully with the dog in his foster home and welcomes all human visitors with open paws. Atticus is calm, well-mannered, and an absolute gentleman, but he does have a few non-negotiables: a sturdy cat tree with a scratching post and a cushy kitty bed are must-haves for this king of comfort.

As an FIV+ cat, Atticus is searching for a home where he can be the only feline star. He’s perfectly content being your one-and-only, soaking up all the love and attention you can offer. In return, he’ll shower you with endless affection, quiet companionship, and a lifetime of snuggles.

If you’re ready to give this gentle, loving boy the forever home he deserves, apply to adopt Atticus today. He’s waiting to be your loyal, purr-filled best friend! And if you can't adopt Atticus, please share this post to help him get more exposure to help him find his new home.

Apply to adopt Atticus here:
