March Pet of the Month Winner - Luna

Hey there CSAH followers, my name is Luna and I’m a one year old female tabby cat with long locks and beautiful hazel eyes. I was rescued last year on my mom’s birthday, and I was her favorite present. I love to fetch my soft treats from across the room. I can hear the treat bag open from anywhere in my house! You’ll find me most days sleeping in my favorite spot on top of the cat tree. I love to play with my mom’s hair ties. There are tons under the couch and rugs, but she just keeps buying more for me to take when she isn’t looking. Fetching is my best skill—I will play for hours if you keep tossing! My favorite past time activity is visiting my grandma with my fur brother Thor when my parents go on vacation. Grandma has a fun house, and she spoils us with toys and treats. I love to be scratched on my back. It’ll make me purr really loudly, and sometimes I drool if you do a good job. My most memorable moment was getting rescued by my forever family! I’ll be thankful though if they stop bringing home animals. They recently brought home a dog, and I could do without all that noise. What I think you all should know about me is that I’m so brave! I’m not afraid of the vacuum like my brothers, and when my dog brother comes near, I let him know that I’m in charge. I’m a sweet girl… give me a like! :)

May Pet of the Month Winner - Dresden

Hi, my name is Dresden, I’m a one and a half year old red husky. I came to my new family in April 2017 after I lost my former owner to cancer.

He tolerates me most of the time cuz he’s almost 10yrs old but I think he’s playing hard to get and loves me.

My new mom has introduced me to mushing with my new brother and my many new friends. I’m really good with smaller dogs but not so much with bunnies and birds, but I think they are so much fun.

My friends have several nicknames for me like Dres, Puppers, Trouble and my dad calls me Baby Boy. I can’t get enough of squeaky toys, squeaky ball, tennis balls, and my one-eared stuffed rabbit. My dad just introduced me to a treat ball... OMG OMG I LUVS IT SO MUCH. I really love any type of food (used to get a lot of people food but my new Mom and Dad are mean about giving it to me now
