  • Serafina is a very sweet and petite formal feral kitty who was rescued from an abandoned garage in Baltimore.  She now wants to be pet as much as possible and is quite the chatter – letting you know when she needs more, more, more petting!  She also very much enjoys sleeping in bed with her foster mom, and loves to crawl up onto her belly or chest to sleep and be pet.  Serafina still has certain quirks and would probably not do well with children (for example, she does not like to be approached quickly and does not like you to lean over to pet her if you are standing), but these seem to only make her more enchanting - she has come such a long way and is sure to continue to blossom when given the individualized attention she deserves.   Most importantly, Serafina needs a loving home with people who will spend time helping her adjust to her new surroundings and give her love, love, love. 
    Serafina is about two years old, and she has tested negative for FIV/FeLV and had all of her vaccinations.   For more information about adopting Serafina, please see 4 Paws Rescue Team or call Stacy at (202) 365-2015.



  • Pet People is a proud sponsor of the 1st Annual DC Week for the Animals. Although the event officially kicked off on May 30th, there is still bunches to do until June 7th. Events throughout the week include adoption fairs, spay/neuter awareness events, low-cost vaccinations, pet food drives, and more. The week will culminate with the Washington Humane Society's 22nd Annual Bark Ball. Which is always splendid.

    Mayor Fenty has officially proclaimed the week and many organizations including humane organizations, rescues, shelters, and other non-profits, will be hosting special related events. Many businesses and other caring entities will also be participating and/or sponsoring. There will also be a salute to our military service animals and police dogs.

    We encourage animal lovers across the District to participate.
