Morning – Pet Connection

PET CONNECTION: Meet Tutti

Tutti Has A Whole Lot Of Energy

  We’ve got a live one this week! Tutti joins us from C.A.A.R.E. She’s a 16-year-old Cockatoo. She’s actually a mix between a Moluccan and Umbrella Cockatoo. That means she has gorgeous orange and yellow streaks in her feathers near her head. Tutti has energy! She love to sing and dance, and is pretty verbal. She loves to cuddle. You…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Merlin

Merlin can put a little bit of magic in your life.

Merlin’s got this amazing magic trick up his furry sleeve: he’ll make you want to snuggle him even when he’s trying to convince you to play with him instead. The lively two-year-old came in to Homeward Animal Shelter from a local pound, and unfortunately, he’s got a lot of company there. The shelter has a surplus of cats that need…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Jensen

A lowrider of a dog who will lift your spirits high.

If you like the way pitties look, you will love Jensen, from the tip of his broad black nose to the end of his tail a long, long way behind. He’s got the classic wide pit bull face, short legs and a broad chest and shoulders that look like he could bench 440. The long, low-slung dog is almost broader…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Stella

Stellllllllaaaaaa!!!

Just like the iconic scene with Marlon Brando in “Streetcar Named Desire,” Stella could make you holler her name to the heavens — and that’s because people tend to shriek with delight every time they see her. She is a sweet and incredibly calm little mixed-breed puppy who came in to the Diamond in the Ruff animal rescue from a…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Harrington

Want a kiss from a handsome young fellow? Harrington's your guy.

He may be only 12 weeks old, but handsome little Harrington already has his charm game down pat. The black domestic shorthair kitten came in to Homeward Animal Shelter from the local pound, and he’s hardly stopped purring since then. Harrington gets along with everybody, old friend or stranger. Homeward Animal Shelter’s Heather Klefstad accompanied him on his visit to…

PET CONNECTION: Meet Eva

Eva Is A Sweet Bird With A Quiet Chirp Looking For A Family To Love

  Eva is sweet. That’s the first thing you notice about her. She was a little nervous coming into Pet Connection this week, but she didn’t let that stop her. She’s a six-year-old White-capped Pionus. She has a head covered in white feathers, along with bronze feathers speckled on her wings and blue and red feathers on the bottom side…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Buzz

He's light years ahead of the competition for cutest doggo.

We’re all abuzz about our newest Pet Connection guest this morning. Buzz is an electrifying little dog with tons of energy and charm, but who knows how to settle in and focus when there’s a need. The two-year-old Miniature Pinscher/Dachsund cross loves to play and likes to be on the go, enjoying car rides and games with both people and…

LIVE: Pet Connection: Meet Happy

C'mon, c'mon, get happy.

We’re happy to tell you that you have a chance to bring home what may be the nicest cat we’ve ever met here at the Morning Show. Not just Happy, but handsome, the 11-year-old black domestic longhair was adopted from Homeward Animal Shelter back in 2009. However, his owner’s circumstances changed recently, so Happy’s come back to Homeward to try…

PET CONNECTION: Meet Mango

Mango Isn't Your Typical Parrot

  Meet Mango in this week’s Pet Connection. Mango is a 10-year-old Eclectus Parrot from our friends at C.A.A.R.E. Eclectus Parrots are not your typical birds. They are one of the few bird species that have different looks for males and females. Female Eclectus Parrots have red and purple feathers. They have very specific dietary needs. For that reason, most…

PET CONNECTION: Meet Juliet

A Kitty Looking For Her Romeo

  It’s International Cat Day! There’s no better time to meet Juliet, the adorable kitty looking for her Romeo. She’s a four-year-old cat with a laid back attitude. She’d love someone to just love and nuzzle up to. Juliet would go great in a family with kids. She gets along well with other cats that aren’t too rambunctious. She has…
