He’s a player
Clarion PAWS in Shippenville posted earlier this week on its Facebook pages about Tyler. It also posted about shy guy Mario.
Tyler
“Tyler loves to play. He even convinces the cats next door to play. He can be seen inviting you into his room as soon as you walk into the PAWS house,” the rescue posted on Facebook.
“He is a little over a year so he still has lots of kitten energy. When he isn’t playing he is trying to climb in your lap for as much love as he can soak up,” the post continued.
Mario
“Mario is the only one left from our 2015 4th Avenue relocation project. He is a shy boy that wants love,” the rescue posted.
“Right now he lives with some of our younger residents and he keeps up with them. He does have some scarring on his eye from living outside. He is enjoying living inside in the air conditioning and heat and just needs a ‘furrever’ home to fully settle into,” the rescue said.
Clarion PAWS is located at 11348 Route 322, Shippenville, Clarion River Hill, between Scrap Happy and Clarion Electric. The adoption center is open from 5 to 7 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturdays.
The center is closed Fridays and Sundays. More information is available online at www.clarionpaws.org, the group’s Facebook page or by calling (814) 229-1231.
Animal updates
Precious Paws Animal Rescue in Franklin’s Facebook pages were filled with updates on the rescue’s foster cats and dogs.
Brady
Clara Lackey posted about Brady, Frankie and River earlier this week on the group’s Facebook page.
Frankie
River
“Brady, Frankie and River are ready for adoption. Super sweet kittens who love to be held … does well with our older foster cat, Suzi, and our three yorkies. And … good with children,” she posted.
Novah
Leah M. Anson posted an update on Novah to the group’s Facebook page.
“I’ve had a few people ask about Novah. Yes, she is still available for adoption through PPAR,” Anson said.
Theresa Weldon posted an update on Ace, the German shepherd, with an eye condition.
“Ace and I went to PVSEC for our second post surgical followup. He is doing as well as we could have hoped. In fact one of his eyes is producing too much goop!! So we have some new eye drops to try to prevent seeping infection,” Weldon posted.
Precious Paws is also looking for some scratching posts for its cats and kittens in foster care “to help teach them not to scratch on furniture.”
