$5 Cat Adoption Event at Winnebago County Animal Services

Earlier this week I lost my beloved rescue dog Urban whom I adopted from a Rockford animal shelter over 15 years ago. He had just celebrated his 17th birthday the week before he passed, and he was my very first "baby".

I snapped this selfie with my beloved Urban as we enjoyed our last boat ride together over Labor Day weekend, and I will treasure it for the rest of my life...
