Meet Forrest and Vivian, Winston and Goldie, this week’s Pets of the Week in the San Gabriel Valley and Whittier areas.
Forrest and Vivian, siblings with love to give
Can anyone take in two sweet siblings? They’ve been waiting so very long for a real home. Forrest and Vivian have a knack at melting hearts and getting along with dogs. This elegant-looking pair are 10-months-old, and they’re as cute and sweet as they look.
Forrest is also known as “Mr. Handsome.” He looks like a little cheetah and is a major cuddler. He loves to be petted and looks at you with eyes full of love. Vivian boasts cute bangs over one eye, is always up for an adventure or a nap in the sun. She is smart and will tell you when it’s meal time or petting time.
Both were raised with two nurturing doggies, so if you have a nice dog at home, all the better. Find the adoption application and more photos of these two on the “Teen Cats” page on the website.

Winston, No. A506661, has winning ways
Winston is a dapper 6-year-old greyhound mix who is ready to race his way into your heart! He has a beautiful shiny brindle coat that turns heads wherever he goes. He’s not just a pretty face, though. Winston has smarts as well. He appears to be housebroken and knows a handful of tricks, with the desire to learn more.
Winston likes to chase things, especially toys. His favorite is the squeaky ball, but really, he’s not very picky. His long legs make it seem like he’s floating through the air in pursuit of whatever is thrown his way. This also means that Winston should not live with cats or other small animals. After a few rounds of fetch, he will contentedly relax and enjoy chewing on his toys until it’s time to run again.
At 6-years-old, Winston is eligible for the Seniors for Seniors program, meaning his adoption fee is waived for an adopter 60 years and older.
The adoption fee for dogs is $150. All dog adoptions include spay or neuter, microchip and age-appropriate vaccines.

Pets may not be available for adoption and cannot be held for potential adopters by phone calls or email. pasadenahumane.org
Goldie, No. A506780, is shy but sweet
Goldie is a beautiful but shy 3-year-old red tabby. Thankfully, she has been quickly warming up to staff and volunteers at Pasadena Humane and her sweet personality is shining through that initial hesitancy.
We see all the signs that Goldie is really starting to relax and enjoy herself when the feather toy comes out. She perks right up and starts to play. She’s a fun-loving cat who is sure to provide hours of entertainment.
Goldie has lived with other cats, so she will probably fit into a multi-cat home easily with the right introduction.
The adoption fee for cats is $100. All cat adoptions include spay or neuter, microchip and age-appropriate vaccines.
