    Pet Name: Blossom
    Alex says: Blossom is a 11-week old american short hair cat from New York. We got Blossom from a friend; Blossom is one of seven siblings! He got his name by being so cute and playful. He jumps from high places and from low places to high, and tricks the computer mouse. I love everything about Blossom, even when he took my sock into his litter box, disgusting! We don't know what his favorite food is yet, but for now, it is my socks. Blossom likes to play with our hair and with our big dog, Kermit! He is as cute as can be.

    Pet Name: Blue
    Lillian says: Blue is a 3-year old Great Dane from Florida. We got her in London at a kennel. She is called Blue for her color. She is very obedient but clumsy, she is a good swimmer and she knows how to sit, stay, lie down, drop something, shake, come by her name, roll over. Blue is very warm and cuddly and friendly to everyone. Blue's favorite food is pretzels. I have entered in this contest many other times when Blue was a puppy but I have never gotten in, this note is not just coming from me but from all of my family and friend too. Please deeply consider featuring Blue.

    Pet Name: Casey
    Rebecka says: Casey is a 1-year old rat terrier from New Jersey. When my mom went to visit my grandpa in KY they went to go look at puppy's to get him one, but my mom ended up with buying one and bringing her home. My family couldn't think of a name for about 2 weeks, until we just thought of Casey, and that was pretty much the only name that she responded too. The list of tricks Casey can do is too long to put down, but she can sit, lay down, rollover, dance, crawl, stand, fetch, and hide n' seek with toys. I love how she is sooo cuddly, funny, friendly, and talented. shes not picky when it comes to food. Casey absolutely loves attention. she cant be in a room unless someone else is in there. She will play with anything she can get her mouth on. When she gets really excited she wags her tail really fast, which causes her hole body to move and my family probably couldn't live with out her
