Katrina Courtesy Photo (altered) Female, 1-2 years oldKatrina is an absolutely adorable and friendly little dilute tortie who was living outside at a trailer park and dying to get inside the homes. She is so happy to be safe inside her foster home. Katrina was used to other cats at the park, and we think she would be fine in many types of homes. She is a gentle girl seeking a loving forever family. She is microchipped and has all age-related shots.Panchito and Luca Courtesy Photo (altered)Males, 2 and 5 years oldPanchito (grey) and Luca (orange) are buddies. Panchito is the more outgoing one; he is initially shy for about half a minute, then he’ll play and let you pet him. Luca may hide for a while, but once he knows you, try getting him off your lap! He’s what we call a lap-hog. Panchito loves laps too, but Luca’s fondness for laps may lead him to let you hold him like a human baby, and this can go on for a long time.

Another conversation to explore, separate from this news story.

Everyone clicks through mandatory training without reading it. May you do the same?

Your employer requires an hour-long annual course whose answers have not changed in years. Coworkers run it in the background and share the quiz answers. Completing it carefully would make you late for actual work with a deadline.

When does pointless compliance excuse pretending to comply?
