Featured Pet Oren Ishii
Submitted by Ken Clark, Bradenton, FL

Oren is just over 2 years old however in the picture she is roughly 5 months old.  Yes, she is a raccoon.  Her story began one cold April day when some roofers ripped out a soffit and down she fell at 10 days old.  When Mom never came back to get her, she came to live with me. Bottle feeding her and caring for her these past 2 years have sometimes proved difficult but always rewarding.  She is a sweet little girl who curls up beside me to watch TV or snuggles with me when I am sleeping.

She is mischievous; don't let her cute little face fool you. She is extremely smart knowing among other things: how to flush toilets, turn on faucets, and open doors and the fridge.

Send us a picture and a few short lines on why your pet should be a featured pet, and we just might feature him/her in this space.
