    logo_vvhsCottonwood AZ (November 23, 2018) – There’s no place like home — especially during the holidays. Verde Valley Humane Society (VVHS) extended family of staff and volunteers love, shelter and care for homeless pets, but even the coziest shelter is no substitute for the comfort of a real home. So, beginning Black Friday – Friday, November 23rd – VVHS is making a special push to raise awareness about the many smart, loveable, loyal homeless pets they have available for adoption and the importance of pet adoption during the holiday season. Their goal is to get as many pets as possible out of the shelter and into homes by Christmas.

    20181123_ginnyVVHS is also extending their hours to make it easier for potential adopters to open their heart and home to a homeless pet this holiday. Beginning December 2nd, they will be open Sundays from 10am to 2 pm. Currently the adoption center, located at 1520 W. Mingus in Cottonwood, is open Mon – Saturday 10 am to 5 pm.

    “We’re excited about our extended hours,” said VVHS Executive Director Tacy Pastor. “Being open on Sunday when families can come in together to meet a new 4-legged family member will go a long way to getting them all “Home for the Holidays!”

    Volunteers will be on hand, 7 days a week, to help adopters get to know a prospective new cat or dog. Adopters who already have a dog and want to adopt a second, are encouraged to bring their current dog along for a “meet and greet” to see how well the two get along. Verde Valley families who aren’t ready or able to commit to adopting are encouraged to consider fostering a pet short-term for the holidays. Short-term fostering gives pets a much-needed break from the shelter that helps to reduce their stress.

    All pets are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, and are given all necessary veterinary care before adoption.

    Baby Boomer Hippies
    Baby Boomer Blues
    By Tommy Acosta
    If you are a Baby Boomer and are reading this, STOP right now and click off the page because it’s one of the most depressing things I have ever written. But if you are in the mood to wallow in darkness and self-pity, read on. Baby Boomers, what happened? Has time so betrayed us, now, that we are but a decade or two away from finishing our stay here on this planet? What happened to those of us who grew our hair, protested against the unjust wars of our time and dominated three decades with the best music ever made and played? Looking back at videos of us at concerts, rocking to the Beatles, Stones, Yes, Prince, The Who, Metallica, Cream, Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Beach Boys, Kiss, etc., we look at ourselves and we are fat, old, or bald. Sickness racks us. Body parts are failing, and we are getting closer and closer to our expiration date. We had dreams. We thought we would bring peace to the world. We marched in great numbers on Washington against the killing war in Viet Nam. We wanted to bring an end to evil. And we failed. Miserably. Read more→
