Pet of the Week: “Philippe was rescued in Georgia after his original owner brought him to the vet to be euthanized.”
“Philippe was rescued in Georgia after his original owner brought him to the vet to be euthanized. A local rescue volunteer was at the vet office at the time and convinced the owner to give him up for adoption instead of euthanizing him. Thanks to a wonderful network of rescue volunteers, he made his way to Fairfax, Virginia-based rescue Pets Bring Joy, which is where we met him. He is a wonderful cat, healthy and full of love, and we will never understand why someone wanted to put him to sleep.”

She’s a fast learner and already knows sit, stay, and down. She’s still learning “leave it” because she can’t resist a tasty treat.”
