Pet of the Week - Othello!
Name: Othello
Breed: Tabby
Age: 1 year
Before my boyfriend and I were together, we were best friends. I knew he wanted a cat, so I convinced him he needed to get a kitten. I'm actually the one who went and picked out the kitten, and my only requirement was that he was a boy. When Jose came home from work we decided his name was Othello. I ended up spending a lot more time over at his place playing with and taking care of Othello, and we joke that he is the reason we're together now.
A few months later when we were together, we decided Othello needed a brother or sister. That's when we got Augustus. Othello wasn't too keen on him at first, but now they're best friends. Othello even saved his life, because back in March Augustus fell off the third floor balcony and broke his leg, and Othello started making a lot of weird noises until I came to see what was wrong. Now he's Cupid and a hero.
When he's not match-making or saving lives, Othello enjoys crawling into small boxes and bags, chewing up my art projects, and fighting for the top tier of the cat tower with his brother.
Thanks for sharing your sweet kitty with us Laura! Check out Laura's awesome handpainted tshirts on Etsy: Gynx Apparel!

Pet of the Week - Cinnamon/Canela
This is a special Pet of the Week because my dear friend Pili lost her sweet dog about a month ago when it got loose. If you're in Spain and you've seen this dog, let us know! She needs get back to her rightful owners.
Name: Cinnamon/Canela
Age: 2 years
Breed: Mini Pharaoh Hound
We got Cinnamon/Canela when she was about a month and a half old, from a friend of my dad, and she was so tiny! She was scared and missing her mum and siblings, but after playing around with her and holding her she started feeling at home. She's always been a very playful puppy, and very loving, won the hearts of everyone in the family, and was awfully spoilt by all of us.
If there's an Olympics games for dogs she would have got gold medal on free jumping, she could jump over everything! But as an odd thing, she's also the only dog that hasn't loved G (my bf) on sight, all dogs absolutely adore him, but she was all pissy
when she met him.
Since she disappeared we are all very heartbroken and miss her loads. I'm just very glad that I have the pillow that Jolene from DingoGirls Den made me
and the custom cartoon/portrait and labels and cards that Deb from On Cupcake Moon drew for me. I keep on hoping we'll get news from her one day, and as they say, hope springs eternal, right?
Thank you so much for sharing Cinnamon with us Pili, I know it was difficult. My heart is breaking for you and I hope she is returned to you soon.
