GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Humane Society of West Michigan joined us in studio to introduce us to Peach! Peach is a 2-month-old female American Pit Bull Terrier mix.
Humane Society of West Michigan would also like you to meet Cinnamon! HSWM thinks Cinnamon is actually a Havana Brown mix, which is a pretty rare breed of cat! He's almost 7 years old and is very sweet. But don't let his sweetness and affection fool you. He also has a wild side and is known to be playful and a great hunter. He wants a home that would give him a lot of activity and of course love!
Tito's, Tots, & Tails:
Join Humane Society of West Michigan on Thursday for their second annual Tito's, Tots, & Tails at Blue Dog Tavern (638 Stocking Ave NW Grand Rapids). Every Tito's Vodka drink sold during the night will give $1 to Humane Society of West Michigan. Tito's will also make a donation at the end of the night.
