“Maple is an adorable two-year-old guinea pig with a talent for mischief. Carrots, salad, and occasional tomatoes are her favorite foods. She enjoys eating, napping, and running laps around her cage.

Pet of the Week: “His life goal is to be allowed off leash to actually chase a squirrel (keep dreaming, son).”
“Max is a 3-year-old rescue who joined our family in September. We suspect he is a Jindo, or perhaps a Shiba Inu/Shepherd mix. He loves going on long walks on Sligo Creek Trail, getting treats from curbside pickup at Loyalty Bookstore and Fenwick Beer & Wine, and is always down to make new friends. His…

Pet of the Week: “He makes us laugh because he falls asleep in silly positions.”
“We adopted Sonny in April during the quarantine. He is named after Tottenham Hotspur player Heung-Min Son. He makes us laugh because he falls asleep in silly positions. Sonny loves to socialize, watch birds from the windowsill, and spend time in his outdoor playpen on the balcony.”
