Our KIX pet of the week is Garrett from Second Chance Pet Adoptions!
Look out, everybody, ladies man coming through! Garrett, a 4 year, 8-month-old cattle dog, loves all females he meets and is a monogamous mutt who’d like an exclusive relationship with you! Because he is a working dog by nature, remaining mentally stimulated is important and would be a great addition to an active home. He is a little wary of children, so he would do best in a home with older kids.
While Second Chance Pet Adoptions is open to the public Monday through Friday between the hours of 11 AM and 5 PM, all of our dogs live in foster homes, so you will need to submit an application at www.secondchancenc.org to set up a meet-and-greet with the dog or dogs of your choice.

Update: Dee has recently been adopted!
Our KIX pet of the week is Dee from Second Chance Pet Adoptions!
Dee is a 1 year, 4-month-old petite black, long-haired cat we rescued from a feral colony in Johnston County. Even though Dee is feral, she is quite sweet but still slightly nervous around humans. She is looking for a quiet home where she can build her confidence. She loves to be pet and will follow you around the house but prefers to be the only pet in the home so she can receive 100% of the spotlight. After getting comfortable in her new space, she will likely become a shadow cat and will want to cuddle with you at night. If you are interested in learning more about Dee, please visit www.secondchancenc.org and submit an adoption application or stop by our adoption center! Second Chance Pet Adoptions is open to the public Monday through Friday from 11 AM and 5 PM. Dee cannot wait to meet you!

It’s the first time we heard Boston’s “More Than a Feeling”, “Beth” by Kiss, and the silly “Muskrat Love” by The Captain and Tennille. Rod Stewart has held the top spot for the last four weeks with “Tonight’s The Night”, but The Spinners’ “Rubberband Man” and Bee Gees’ “Love So Right” are worthy challengers! The Countdown, Casey’s stories, and the Long Distance Dedications, every Sunday 9-noon, only on KIX!
Our KIX Pet of the Week is Castalia the Dog from Second Chance Pet Adoptions!
Calling all suburban homebodies: This 3-year-old hound is in search of a soft couch to lounge on (and a family to hang with, of course)! Found pregnant on the side of the road, Castalia was captured a few days before going into labor, and without our help, she would not have survived the birth. Thankfully, she, and her nine puppies (who have all since been adopted), survived and recovered — and now Castalia, also known as Cassie, is ready to find her #foreverhome! Cassie loves male dogs but it is not required for her to have a canine friend in the home…what she DOES need is a fenced-in backyard. This gal loves to romp around and have her freedom when it comes to potty time! Her foster parents are constantly telling her how proud they are of her progress — and it’s time for her to show it off to the world! Let’s find Castalia a forever home in time for the holidays! If you are interested in meeting about Castalia, please submit an adoption application at www.secondchancenc.org.

In the 1950s, Hollywood Feed opened our first pet supply store on the corner of Hollywood Street and Chelsea Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee. Hollywood Feed is known for friendly and knowledgeable service more than half a century later. We’ve grown from a single store in Memphis to a retail presence spanning the country, with new locations opening each year.
We’ve kept the name Hollywood Feed, despite some confusion, because we want to draw attention to our past and the pet lovers who started the company, the pet lovers who worked tirelessly over the years, and the pet lovers who shopped and continue to shop with us to make the company what it is today.
Pawfect Match Rescue and Rehabilitation
At Pawfect Match Rescue and Rehabilitation, we believe that ALL dogs deserve a second chance regardless of their breed or age. We take a different approach to rescue. We don’t try to save the masses; we just save ONE at a time and make them the best dog they can be by the time they find their forever homes. By that, we mean that we take them into our homes where they live amongst us and our pets and are treated as one of the family, not as a foster dog.
Besides the basics of crate training and house training, we teach them basic obedience, we groom them, feed them a high-quality dog food, and last but not least, we shower them with LOVE and attention that hopefully teaches them to trust again and realize that life really IS good.
Our KIX Pet of the Week is Buffy!
With eight years of practice in the fine art of friendship, Buffy is more than prepared to be your co-pilot in life! She prefers to fly solo in terms of other furry friends, but Buffy has plenty of personality to fill your heart alone. This gal loves to join her humans on adventures and walks but avoids spending too much time on the grass due to her allergies. She is currently on a prescription diet and medication regimens (in addition to allergy drops) due to some severe allergies she holds. With these medications, she is stable and comfortable! The staff would be happy to tell you more about her medical needs upon inquiry. Buffy needs a foster home or a forever home; if you are interested in learning more about her, please visit www.secondchancenc.org. Most of our dogs are housed in foster homes, but since Buffy is still in need of one, she currently resides at Second Chance Pet Adoptions, where you can stop by Monday through Friday between the hours of 11 AM and 5 PM and meet her!

If you scratch in just the right place, he will show you his secret talent: wiggle butts! As far as other pets, Pork Chop prefers the single life, where he can bask in your undivided attention. His favorite activities include: going on car rides, hanging with his humans, and relaxing with a good nap. If you’re lucky, he may even let you hear his stunning singing voice! Pork Chop has been searching for a forever home for nearly 100 days now; it’s time for someone to rescue the wigglebutt master! If you are interested in learning more about him, please visit www.secondchancenc.org or stop by Second Chance Pet Adoptions any time between the hours of 11 am and 5 pm.

Presented by North Carolina Opera featuring Fidelio! On Sunday, November 14, 2021 at 2:00 PM at Meymandi Concert Hall, Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts FIDELIO is generously sponsored by Ross Lampe, Jr. FIDELIO is Beethoven’s only opera, based on a true story from the French Revolution about a woman who, disguised as a man, freed her husband from prison. The original version of the opera received its premiere in 1805 in Vienna, but thanks to Napoleonic invasion and French occupation, it attracted little notice at first. Beethoven took the opportunity to rewrite the piece – including several versions of the overture – and it was successful in its final version in 1814. The inspired music, the vigor and excitement of the rescue scene, the great chorus, the beauty of the Act I quartet (that has the same feel of a slow movement from one of Beethoven’s symphonies) won over the Viennese public and subsequent audiences. At the same time, the opera’s message of hope, and of liberation from tyranny has made the piece resonate with audiences around the world even beyond its musical impact. Arthur Fagen conducts the NCO Orchestra and Chorus. Alexandra LoBianco (previously seen here in Tosca and Siegfried) sings Leonore, and Carl Tanner (previously seen here in Pagliacci and Samson et Dalila) sings Florestan. Other returning artists include Kenneth Kellogg as Rocco and Takaoki Onishi as Don Fernando.
FIDELIO lasts approximately 2h30m, including one intermission. Sung in German with English supertitles Composer: Ludwig van Beethoven Librettist: Joseph Sonnleithner Premiere: 1814, Theater am Kärntnertor, Vienna, Austria
