How About a Friend to Curl Up With on a Rainy Day?

The Peninsula Humane Society is waiving adoption fees for all cats and kittens.

Bay Area residents looking to adopt a cat or kitten may now do so free of charge at the Peninsula Human Society and SPCA, Human Society officials announced this week.

The Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion in Burlingame is waiving adoption fees for all cats and kittens. Feline adoption fees usually run from $50 to $95.

"Instead, we’re asking adopters to make a donation in any amount." says PHS's Brian Probst.

The goal is to get a few hundred cats and kittens into new, permanent loving homes by Christmas.

Area residents interested in adopting a feline companion are encouraged to fill out a one-page adoption profile before heading to the shelter. The downloadable profile and a sampling of the shelter's available cats can be found at www.PHS-SPCA.org. The shelter is located at 1450 Rollins Rd. in Burlingame and is open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends.

To view available cats and kittens, and even see a live webcam video of these cats at play, go to http://phs-spca.org/adopt/cat.html.

It's not just you, it's all of us. I'll bet most of us have seen this happen all over town. PeopleRead More don't seem to be in the habit of checking for pedestrians, unless perhaps they're near a school. Drivers need to understand that they must watch, yield and wait. In large cities where there may be dozens of people in an intersection, drivers, for the most part, observe the law--there's safety in numbers. So when we're alone or in a small group, and find ourselves in a crosswalk around here, we all must remain alert and be ready to "jump out of the way" of some unobservant or inconsiderate driver.
