Pet Connection: Meet Freddy & Peaches

Plus Erik Tells Us About An Online Auction To Help A Great Local Shelter.

A Pumpkin-Spiced Kitty Needs A Home This Halloween Season

We’ve been talking all week long about Fat Bear Week. And even though we announced the winner Wednesday — Congratulations, 747! — you might find yourself with a craving for more bears.

In spite of his name, this cutie stands out from the pack.
