Gus and Mimi: Cinderella’s Pets of the Week

Special to the Advance

Just about one year old, Mimi is a sweet, loving and beautiful cat. She’s got a symmetrically striped tabby coat in black and tan, highlighted by a big white bib that makes her look pretty fancy. She’s medium-sized and has an interesting handled bell image in white on her nose. She also has entrancing pretty gold-green eyes.

Think cats are not affectionate? Think again. Mimi’s active and playful, but this feminine feline also loves to cuddle. She would make a great companion for a person who spends a lot of time at home. With Mimi around, there will always be a furry someone around to share your day with. Her sister, Didi, was recently adopted so now Mimi is ready for her turn at happily-ever- after with just the right person!

Augustus (Gus) is one great big, brindle pooch, with a dusting of white around his muzzle, neck and chest. He’s a Labrador Retriever crossed with some larger breed and he weighs in at a solid 80 pounds. Gus will turn five this year, but he doesn’t let that slow him down. He’s very athletic and loves to run around and play.

Gus will come to you when called, skid to a stop in front of you, and wait patiently for treats or pets. He doesn’t like other male dogs very much, but he gets along great with female dogs and would be happy to join a household with one or or two already present. Since Gus is such a large dog, the ideal home for him would include a large, securely fenced, backyard with lots of room for this big boy to frolic in–to his heart’s content.

Mimi is spayed and Gus is neutered and both are up-todate on their shots.
