Getting the pet acclimated to the physical home, what is going on inside and outside, where the potty box and food dishes are located, and more; all tasks that need time and extra attention from the new pet owner. But that too is a good thing, because instead of binge eating in front of the tv or computer, you’ll be paying attention to your new pet and its needs. So, if a new pet has been on your mind for a while, now it could be the perfect time to act. To get things started give a call to the Humane Society of Logan County at 217-737- 4042 on Tuesday, Thursday or Friday between noon and 5 p.m. Visit the HSLC website to see the adoptable animals available now - https:// hslclincoln.org/ hslc-adoptable-pets/ and start the ball rolling. We’re betting there will be a kitten at the shelter that is more than happy to chase it! [Nila Smith]
