Roadhouse Lou, longtime supporter of the Kennebec Valley Humane Society, and former member of the Moose Crew, is helping us celebrate our 30th Anniversary, by bringing back a huge fundraiser.

This caught my eye over the weekend, and I just had to share. I can't tell you how many times I watched this over and over. It just makes me smile.

The Somerset Humane Society is in the running to win a $25,000 grant from State Farm, and you can help make it happen. The Skowhegan shelter was picked out of 2000 non profits entered! The top 40 will receive the grants. Voting ends on November 4th, and November 30th the results will be announced The Somerset Humane Society is the ONLY Maine non-profit in the running...

You know I'm a big believer in adopting your furry friends. Oden, my dog who is more popular on social media than I am, but don't get me started, came to us from the Greater Androscoggin Humane Society in Lewiston. They do an amazing job and here's your chance to support them with 'Pause for Pets,' Sunday, Nov. 6 at the Ramada Inn, Pleasant St., Lewiston.

The Kennebec Valley Humane Society in Augusta is waiving the adoption fee all this week for adult cats that are seven months old and up.

Who doesn't love a puppy? Or a sweet kitty? Sadly, many of the older animals in rescues and animal shelters are ignored due to their age. But there's treasure to be found in these golden years beasts!

Insurance company Nationwide has compiled a list of the 10 'wackiest' dog and cat names. The list comes from their database of insured pets.

The Humane Society Waterville Area has taken in 41 cats from what is being called a hoarding situation.

Earlier this week 2 cats were dropped off at the Franklin County Animal Shelter on Industry Road in Farmington, zipped inside a duffel bag. The shelter would like to spread the word about the best way to bring in an unwanted animal, especially after last months incident in Lewiston, when a dog died.

"Baby Loves Cat" is the title of this video and, well, that pretty much means the internet must pay attention.

Further evidence that cats simply do not care what you think.

Leave it to a company called 'Twinkle Tush' to have a catchy commercial about a jewel used to cover your cat's unsightly butt hole.... Yeah a jewel!

Have fun and help out a great cause Sunday, May 17 with the 'Pet-a-thon' walk around Waterville. It's all to benefit the Humane Society Waterville Area.

Get ready for your heart to melt.

If only we could have this much patience. This is adorable! Watch this very patient cat just relaxing while puppies do what puppies do.

Today, February 20th is "National Love Your Pet Day!" A side comment before we move on, shouldn't EVERY DAY be "Love Your Pet Day?"
