Pet of the Week

“A very rare white Oriental Siamese, ‘Witty,’ and a blue point

Siamese, ‘Blue,’ must stay together for life,” said DiAnna Pfaff-Martin,

organizer of the Community Animal Network.

You can see possible pets at o7 www.animalnetwork.orgf7 or stop by

Russo’s pet store at Fashion Island between noon and 4 p.m. this weekend.

Last year, the network spent $60,000 on veterinary services,

medicines, food and supplies for local rescue animals, Pfaff-Martin said.

No salaries were paid. Russo’s donated $4,000 of pet food. And $ 7,000 is

still owed to local veterinarians from last year’s bills, she said.

In hopes of attracting donations and sponsors, Pfaff-Martin will again

be writing her “Animal Report.” Office Depot on Jamboree Boulevard will

print them, and local businesses will distribute it. Last published in

1999, about 8,000 reports were distributed around town.
