Shadow Cat and Toby

What: Shadow Cat is an angry black soot and terrible mouser — or, more accurately, a short-haired domestic who earned his name by tripping humans. Toby is a good ol' mutt! This senior citizen was rescued from a shelter in Kentucky, USA. The rescue organization guesstimate is he's a Shepard Collie Mix; however, dog owners, vets, and passerbyers are certain he is also a golden.

Lives with:ÌýRina R. Wehbe, Assistant Professor, Computer Science

Ideal gift: Shadow Cat: "This year instead of a gift under the tree, I'd like a perch high above. Ideally a cat hammock or tree near a window." Toby: "An Elvis-style cheese burger. Double pattie, american cheese, bacon, and smothered with peanut butter!"

Sunny Cornelius

What: Sunny is a 10 year old west highland terrier who loves walks on the beach and when he isn’t playing catch with his stuffy, taking drives with his head out the window or chasing birds out of the backyard, he is usually busy on nap patrol.

Lives with:ÌýPeggy Alexiadis Brown, Program Evaluation Specialist with ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøMedicine New Brunswick.

Ideal gift: Sunny would love a cat as a gift- no not really- but seriously- Sunny would love a tasty bone or the first to taste test the turkey.
