How about an easygoing, affectionate 12-month-old, neutered kitten for your next Chipfamily member? Chip is uniquely and strikingly patterned in three colors of gray. He enjoys your attention, wanting to be picked up and carried. When Chip is all tired out from being a playful, active kitten, he will be looking for petting and a stint in your lap.

 The above abandoned pet is being housed by the Carver-Scott Humane Society and is available for adoption. Pets have been checked by a vet, wormed, given updated shots, have a micro ID, checked for friendly dispositions and spayed if they are adults. The donation is $100-plus for a cat and $150 for a dog. If you can give a pet a home, call the humane society at (952) 368-3553.
