What is your favorite food?

“There is so much delicious food I could never pick! I have smelled so many good smells that I just want to dive into. I heard of a day called ‘Thanksgiving’ and that sounds like it would be my favorite holiday! I am told that people sit and eat together. I sure hope my new family leaves a spot open for me, ‘cause I am ready for a big plate of deliciousness to explode in my mouth! Don’t worry, I have very exquisite table manners- Pinkies out!”

What is something special about you?

“Well, I don’t know if it’s special, but it is definitely something my new family needs to know about. I have heartworms, but before you go screaming and running for the hills, let me tell you about it. It isn’t anything to be scared of. I’m not contagious to other animals and humans can’t contract it. Unfortunately, a pesky little mosquito thought my blood would make a tasty after-dinner cocktail and infected me with the parasite in process. How rude is that?! Anyways, the nice people at Texas Humane Heroes said they would pay to get me all better! All I need is a family who will keep me calm and something comfy to sleep on. I know I’m gonna want to try and play so I will let you know that a nice belly rub will calm me right down.”

What is your favorite quote?

“I once saw a movie and one of the lines was ‘Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.’ I like that one. I will never leave my family behind, hopefully I find one that won’t leave me behind either.”
