Hi there PAWS!
Here is a picture of Alex
and me. This is how he lays on me all the time. For
the first ten minutes, he will lay with his butt up in
the air and then he will lay down on me. It is the
cutest thing! He also stretches out and puts his paws on
my face. He is so funny! You don't even know how happy
this cat makes me. |

I wanted to send you a couple
of pictures of Miles and Ella (PAWS names Widget and Beezus) for your
"alumni" page! They have already grown so much! They have adjusted very quickly
to their new home. They are doing very well, eating a lot and playing a lot!
Miles is running, jumping and playing which made me think of the orthopedic
surgeon that performed the surgery to fix his deformed leg. I wanted to write
the surgeon a note, to thank him! What an amazing recovery he has made!
Hope everything is |
|
going well. Thanks for everything-they are absolutely wonderful and just
couldn't be loved any more! |

Dear PAWS Chicago,
We are writing to thank you
for the wonderful new addition to our family! We adopted
Belle (PAWS name Rose) in March and she has
quickly become a very special part of our lives. Thank
you again and keep up the excellent work! - Jeanne
& Mark Mueller |

I wanted to let you know
about my new home. Things are going well. my new Dad
took me to have my right leg re-broke and a plate put
in. I love my new leg. Now I can run and jump, and run
along the fence line to bark at the neighbor dog. I am
learning to play ball, Friday, I start obedience
classes. I am a happy puppy!
Thanks,
Gypsy |

I got Tori (Fudge as she was known back 'in the day')
from a PAWS event at Woodfield Mall in April '02. The funny
thing about this is that I don't really like to go shopping and
reluctantly went with my girlfriend to shop for a wedding shower
gift. She got the shower gift and I came home with a dog. (Read
more about Tori...) |

Bijou seems very
content and has adjusted well to her new home. She has
gotten a bit plump and wants to eat pretty much all day.
I think we will put her on a diet. Enclosed are pictures
of her -- not well posed, but they show her pretty well.
The other cat in the photo is Harry. They haven't
completely bonded, but do seem to get along. Thanks
again for adopting her to us! - Don & Maggie |

Hi PAWS Chicago,
Here is a
picture of my two "children" Joe and Bell. The photo of them on
the couch pretty much sums up what I had hoped for. My son, Joe, has not stopped
talking to her and Bell has successfully taught Joe to scratch his ear with his
foot, do spinners both in the house and yard, and retrieve, not to mention
curling up in the dog bed with her as part of his bedtime ritual. I can't
believe how fortunate Joe and I are since Bell has come to live with |
 |
|
us. She is just great! Thanks again for allowing us to adopt this girl. - Mary Lynn Sobun |

When we first saw
this beautiful, little face on your website, we
knew Gizmo (PAWS name Rocco) had to be
ours. It was instant love from the first moment we met. Gizmo
has a very happy home with two playmates, Hobbes and Lady,
and days are spent chasing one another around the
apartment. Also, Gizmo's favorite thing is to shred the shower
curtain and lay in the tub. He is fluffy,
loving and full of energy; we adore him!

Hi PAWS Chicago,
Here is our
daughter, Kathryn with our two PAWS dogs, Henry
and Fido. We adopted Henry five years ago at
Angels with Tails on Michigan Avenue. He was in Barneys
just waiting for us to adopt him! This year, at Run
for Their Lives, we saw Fido and fell in love with
him. We love them both so much. They are such a part of
our home and lives. We thought you might want to see our
family. Thank you!
- Patti Lynch, Kathryn, Henry &
Fido's Mom |

Dear PAWS Chicago,
We would like to thank PAWS
Chicago for allowing us to adopt a wonderful dog. I must
say that I was a bit hesitant about a dog, since we have
14-month-old twin daughters, but Sydney is perfect;
she is simply sweet. Sydney loves walks and the
twins, and we couldn't imagine life without Sydney. We
will keep in touch.

Dear PAWS Chicago,
Here is a picture of Shayna (PAWS
name Rua). I adopted her from a PAWS adoption event at
Bloomingdale's. I love her! Shanya loves her toys and
she is very friendly to all people and dogs. I walk her
five times a day! Thank you, PAWS Chicago, she is the
joy of my life!

Little did I know that volunteering
at a PAWS adoption event would lead me
to adopt the very dog I was in charge of! Or, should I say
that HE adopted
ME as that scruffy face, Lab energy and indefatigable Terrier spirit all called out to me that
day in February 2002. Tino,
as he is now known, is one
of those dogs that people gravitate to. He is
fearless, smart and king of
his neighborhood, and there is nothing he won't do
for a treat. He knows
everyone and everyone knows him. In fact, one of
his favorite ways |
| to pass an afternoon is to sit in the yard with a bone in
his mouth and a wag his tail, shouting out to all his friends
(human and canine) who pass by. He might also be found taking a
long walk with his daddy, playing Frisbee or catch at his
favorite park, or climbing to the top of the sofa, ready to
attack whatever squirrel he may see through the window. Tino
loves car rides, swimming and being the center of attention and
we thank PAWS for bringing us this goofy ball of dog! We plan to
adopt him a sister in the coming months and I know she will be
as delightful of an addition to our family as Tino is.

PAWS. Come play with us! Please contact Faith's

Just wanted to send you a photo of
Yoda (now known as "Sister Bertrille" of "The Flying Nun" fame many
years ago) in her new home. She is fitting right in with my mom, Joan. The two
of them have hit it off marvelously! "Bertie" already has her very own chair
(when. mom is doing things around the house). The rest of her time is spent
watching TV with mom on the couch, riding in the car and enjoying the sights or
playing. She is full of kisses and loves to be cuddled (honestly, could anyone
resist her little |
|
pixie face?!). Thanks, PAWS, for this wonderful addition to our family! We
promise to keep in touch!! - Mary Ramsden and Joan Blazejack |
