GPS Pet Tag — On Groupon Now!
Groupon deals are something we talk about “behind the scenes.” You know, the “what did you do this weekend?” chatter that co-workers share at the water cooler, coffee pot, or while drawing up vaccines. This Groupon deal I thought would probab
ly interest some of our readers, so I’m linking to it here.
One of the most common questions asked when talking about microchips is, “Isn’t that like GPS tracking or something? What’s next ‘chipping people?” And the answer to that is “Nope. A microchip is a permanent identification tag.”
Well now there is a company that is making tracking devices for your pets to wear (note, this is not something that can be inserted, like a microchip). In fact, it looks just like any other pet tag.
And our friends at Groupon have brought the price down substantially. Woohoo!
Please let us know if you have ordered one, already have one, and what you think about this pet recovery method.
Oh, and the Groupon deal is only good through January 25th.
Popeye & Eleanor – Two Peas In A Pod That Need a Forever Home
This bonded duo, born in April 2010, is looking for a forever home together. They were rescued from a bad situation. Please call us for more details or stop by the hospital to meet them. You can also go to Animal Rescue’s website for more details and an application form.
Popeye is a handsome male Tuxedo. He is a total lover and wants interaction often with his people. As you walk throughout the house, “Pops” likes to follow at your feet, enticing you to lavish attention on him and being just as cute as can be. The majority of his time is spent on his back, flopping around to grab anyone’s feet. He is definitely vocal and will always let you know if he is too high off the ground. He entertains himself wonderfully and doesn’t mind making anything into a toy. One on one time is a must with Popeye, even if he’s just lying on your tummy while you watch a movie.
Eleanor is a dilute calico. She’s very delicate and sensitive, but is somewhat independent and will let you know when it’s lap time. She likes to be held from time to time but, as a true cat, likes it on her own terms. If you hear a little tap in the corner, it’s Eleanor gently patting the curtain cord or lightly boxing a leaf of a plant. Breakfast and dinner time are a different story: she is the first to shove her face into the dish. Eleanor hasn’t grown into her body quite yet and can be a little clumsy, which is hilariously cute. She follows Popeye wherever he goes, but always in her own sweet and dainty way, of course.
This delightful pair is litter box trained and familiar with the daily routines of feeding and sleeping at night. Both Popeye and Eleanor are well-behaved: they do not destroy or get into things that are off limits. They are both also do wonderfully with large dogs. Popeye and Eleanor are sweet kitties who deserve the best home in the world. These kittens have all their vaccines, and have been altered and chipped.
