Description
Hey there, I’m Bissell! I’m a 2-year-old, 54-pound neutered male with a goofy, playful, and energetic personality. I love toys, treats, and learning new tricks—I even know how to sit on command! I ended up here after mistaking a neighbor’s garden gnome for a squeaky toy (oops!), but I promise I only go for real squeaky toys now. I had a blast in the play yard today, mastering treat puzzles, snuffle mats, and fetch with my favorite turkey rope toy. I’m working on “Drop it” and sitting like a pro—a little training with my new family would be so much fun! I’d do best in a home with teenagers or adults (no small kids) and as the only dog—I love being the center of attention!
CAT
Name: Lady
Type: Cat
Breed: Domestic Longhair
Color: Grey
Sex: F
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Age: 8y 2m 10d
Weight: 5.2 pound
Description
Oh, hello there. I’m Lady. I’m a distinguished 8-year-old, 5.2-pound lady with a gentle heart and a penchant for the finer things in life—like chin scratches and cozy beds. I may be a bit reserved at first, but once I’ve decided you’re worthy of my affection, I do enjoy a good snuggle. I’m seeking a quiet home where I can be the center of attention—no other cats, dogs, or small children, thank you very much. I adore a good fuss and will happily lean in for head scratches—on my terms, of course. If you stop petting me too soon, I’ll simply reach out, grab your hand with my paws, and give you a few licks to remind you of your duties. I’ve been told I have a bit of a sassy streak, but really,
I just know what I like. I’ll chirp a polite greeting and make it quite clear when I’m ready for some attention.
CRITTER
Name: American Dragon Jake Long
Type: Reptile
Species: Bearded Dragon
Color: Green
Sex: M
Spayed/Neutered: No
Age: 2y 0m 2d
Weight: 1.22 pound
Description
Oi, mate! The name’s American Dragon Jake Long. Yeah, I know—epic name, right? I may not have any fire-breathing powers, but I do have plenty of personality and a love for basking like a true legend. Now, let’s talk about my ideal home. I need a spacious enclosure with plenty of room to roam, climb, and soak up the warmth. Speaking of warmth, I require a proper heat lamp and UVB lighting—gotta keep my dragon energy strong, after all. I enjoy a diet of greens, veggies, and occasional insects. I appreciate gentle handling and spending time with my humans, but I don’t require constant attention like a dog or cat. And no, I don’t breathe fire—I’ll leave that to cartoons!
