“Happy 2022! I hope everyone had a safe and happy new year celebration. Whether you went out or vegged out on the couch, I hope it was grand!
As many of us know, precious Betty White passed away on New Years Eve. 99 years of kindness and a love for animals that will last decades more. I think a fantastic way to honor Betty’s memory would be to help out an animal organization. Whether big or small, it would be a lovely way to start the New Year off right. Here are some organizations you can help:
The Humane Society of Navarro County

As my first pet feature of 2022, meet Max! He is actually the brother to my newly adopted cat sibling, Bug! So PLEASE go check out this active cutie if you want a fun-loving, excited furfriend!”

Max was part of a stray litter that was taken to the shelter along with their mom back in July. They were only 4 weeks old and Max is now ready to find his forever home. He is playful, social and hopes to have a furry friend to play with in his new home. Max will do best with kids older than 12 since he is very active. You can also adopt him and another male cat for a reduced adoption fee! Wow!
