Pet of the week
By LAMECH JOHNSON
CALLING a cat "Foxy" might seem a bit strange, but The Tribune's cunning pet of the week does the name justice.
A house cat at the Bahamas Humane Society, Foxy has outsmarted The Tribune for many weeks - managing to vanish whenever a camera is produced.
In the end, he had to be bribed into submission with a rub down.
There was a time when such attentions were not welcomed by ...

A Christmas shelter pet's poem and HSGB holiday video
A Christmas shelter pet's poem
Tis the night before Christmas and all through the town,
every shelter is full--we are lost, but not found.

But now we sit here and think of the days
we were treated ...

The do's and don'ts of rabbits and pocket pets
It's inevitable. Every new pet "fad" is going to result in more pets ending up at animal shelters. It seems there is at least one rabbit breeder on the island now, and a couple of pet supply stores that are also selling rabbits and other pocket pets like hamsters and guinea pigs.
In the last week our shelter has taken in two hamsters and one rabbit (our fourth rabbit for the year). That may not s...

Kids and pets
"The kids are not taking care of the dog." Or cat, or hamster, or bunny. We hear this fairly often as a reason to surrender a family pet to our shelter. There are so many benefits for kids to grow up with pets that is makes us sad when the parents make such drastic decisions.
