Willy is around 3-4 years old. He is a gorgeous orange and white male neutered kitty. When you first meet Willy he can be on the shy side, so he is looking for a patient family that is willing to give him the time he needs to adjust to a new home. Once he starts warming up, Willy loves to get petted and receive all the love you have to give! He gets along great with other cats and definitely won’t mind sharing a home with one (or a few). If you are “Willy” to open your home and heart to this special man stop by the HSGA today!! |

Ghosty is a 5 year old handsome orange and white kitty. He is a friendly, vocal and loving boy. He can be independent at times, but he also likes to snuggle up on your lap for some pets. Ghosty has a very spirited and fun personality (well felineality) and can’t wait to become part of a family! |

Gramps is a 7-10 year old Shepherd / Sheltie mix that weighs about 50 pounds. Gramps is a very sweet and affectionate boy that seems to get along well with other dogs. Don’t let his age fool you, as soon as a squeaky toy is around, this senior man transforms into a playful puppy! Gramps walks well on the leash and has a laid-back and easy disposition. We hope that Gramps gets to spend his retirement years in a wonderful home and part of an amazing family! |

A new survey on the sleep habits of Americans finds that a small percentage of us like to sleep in the nude.
Eight percent of respondents to a national sleep survey commissioned by the home furnishings retailer Anna’s Linens admit hitting the sack without PJs. Seventy-four percent of respondents wear pajamas to bed. The same percentage of Americans sleep on their sides. Sixteen percent sleep on their stomachs and ten percent on their backs.
Additional findings:
47 percent share a bed with someone who snores.
Just ten percent of respondents said they were able to recall nearly all their dreams in the morning.
65 percent say they get a “restful night’s sleep” only three nights or less per week.
Ten percent say they get a restful night’s sleep every night, while 25 percent say they sleep restfully five to six nights per week.

The survey finds that Friday night provides the most restful sleep, followed closely by Saturday. The night that provides the least restful night is Sunday, followed by Monday.
The nationwide survey involved more than 3,700 individuals.
