No shelters around here, I have been checking Craigslist and a local trader paper that comes out once a week. Oreo keeps meowing at the pantry door I carried Tigger through to put him in the freezer until spring(morbid yes but I cannot dig 36" of frozen ground by hand) wanting him to come and play... so I have to find hi a companion be it puppy or another cat. Keeping an eye out for a 4-5 year old lab of I can find one who needs a new home, but a puppy would work too. I like dogs and cats and have had my share of both.
