Meet Clawdia, Mira and Rhino, the San Gabriel Valley’s Pets of the Week – San Gabriel Valley Tribune

These pets are ready to settle into their forever home: your home!

Clawdia is ready for her close-up

Clawdia has model good looks and a personality to match. A whirlwind of energy and affection, Clawdia is a one-year-old snowshoeing Siamese beauty with a heart as big as her personality.

Clawdia’s journey has not been without challenges, but her spirit remains intact. Rescued from a shelter where she suffered facial injuries and bravely fought against adversity, Clawdia’s scars are a testament to her resilience. Despite hair loss and scarring on her head and neck due to a food allergy, she is cured and ready to embrace life with enthusiasm.

This spunky feline is no wallflower either. Clawdia lives to play, whether it’s chasing toys, running around the house, or watching for garden wildlife on her personal Cat TV. Her zest for life is contagious and she is always ready to interact with her human companions.

If you are looking for a cat that needs attention and companionship, Clawdia is a great fit. She would be the first to welcome visitors by friendly climbing onto their laps, showering them with caresses and affectionate purrs. He is a social butterfly who thrives on interaction and will always entertain you with his antics.

Clawdia would do best in a home with at least one other feline friend to keep her company during playtime. At just 7 pounds, Clawdia may be small in size, but she makes up for that with her larger-than-life presence. With her first birthday behind her, she’s all grown up and ready to embark on a life of adventure with her forever family.

Mira, #A513776, is a sweetheart

Ten-year-old Mira, #A513776, somehow manages to hide the line where her 100-pound body becomes the person she leans on to caress herself.

She’s a world-class skinny who craves the contact her adoring fans at Pasadena Humane crave from her, and they’re just as happy to be on the receiving end!

Mira spends time with a host family and is settling in well. She has been described as “really sweet and really easy”. She will easily transition to her forever home.

She is also very well trained. She already knows a number of training cues and learning new ones is child’s play for her. She also likes to walk alongside you without a leash. What a good girl!

Mira is not a fan of other dogs, so she would prefer to be the only one at home.

Mira’s age makes her eligible for the “Seniors for Seniors” program. This means that adoption fees are waived for any adopter aged 60 and over.

The normal adoption fee for dogs is $150. All dog adoptions include spaying, neutering, microchipping and age-appropriate vaccinations.

View photos of adoptable animals and make an adoption appointment on the website. Adoptions are by appointment only and new adoption appointments are available at 10 a.m. on Sundays and Wednesdays. Walk-in tours are available daily from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Pets may not be available for adoption and cannot be held for potential adopters by phone or email. pasadenahumane.org

Rhino, n° A513484, a handsome and curious boy

Sweet and affectionate, Rhino just wants to be your best friend forever. This handsome and goofy boy is a little over a year old and is a lot of fun. Rhino, #A513484, seems to be wide-eyed about the world: every day brings something new and exciting!

Rhino is surprisingly gentle for a dog his age – he walks well on a leash and just leans on you for as much pet as you can give him. He also responds very well to training and understands when it’s time to calm down.

Rhino was recently out with the Mobile Outreach Team and had a great day: meeting tons of new people, getting some attention from kids, and getting a belly rub.

He also participated in a few field trips with Pasadena Humane volunteers. He is an avid hiker and is ready for any adventure.

Come meet your new best friend, Rhino, today.
