So they say you come out of an animal shelter wanting to adopt them all, but yesterday I only felt like a good day accomplished. But today... today I can't stop thinking about Fini, this little curly-haired Schnauzer-type dog. He was the sweetest thing and he had a sister who already got adopted, so he was v lonely. He'd bark at everything but if you got in his pen he'd immediately try to cuddle with you. Poor, sweet thing.

And unlike Mocha >:(, he didn't try to bite me when I tried to leave. Mocha's a black lab (they have a few of those) puppy, and the turn-away-and-don't-reward-bad-behavior-with-attention policy did not work when she grabbed my shirt and held on... with her teeth. No punctures, but people had to rescue me and unlatch her.

&Cody; is also one of my favorites, because he's bloody huge and I love big dogs. He was also so cute with really long legs - black lab mix with Godzilla, on his hind legs he could put his front legs on my shoulders easily - and a really long lolling tongue. Strong as hell, though, and I'm glad I didn't run him. The top volunteer, V, did instead, putting a "backpack" on him with bottled water in it to slow him down. I took out Baby, a young German Shepard, while V ran Cody around.

Butter was also sweet, barely barked unlike the other dogs, but pulled like a demon on our walks. So I walked Pepper (the oldest, black lab or otherwise, and, uh, pretty aggressive :( ), Baby, Butter, Sasha (very pretty dog, like a greyhound or something; so cute, she chased after butterflies and grasshoppers), Maisey, and Furby (who was a little hairy dog and very appropriately named).

I didn't spend any time in the Cattery (I've always loved my cats, but dogs are more fun) and the Nursery was closed, but I had some good times. Today it's definitely like, "oh man, i wish they all had homes :(" though. But Furby got adopted that day and I believe Fini is adopted too! It's a couple days process, so if I go tomorrow they'll probably still be there. I think Furby will be picked up Tuesday.

So... yeah. Also, Kadath? Hot. Hot. Hot. Hot. Very hot. >:C
