This week’s Star 99.9 Connecticut Humane Society Pet of the Week is as sweet and snuggly as her name… meet Peach! She’s a petite 2-year-old domestic shorthair mix with striking black and reddish fur (hence her name). Peach is all about the quiet life: soft blankets, gentle pets, and being the solo star of the household. While she hasn’t had much experience with kids, she’s open to meeting respectful ones aged 8 and up. If you’re looking for a low-key, high-cuddle cat to bring peace and purrs into your home, Peach is your girl. Head to CThumane.org/Adopt to make it official.
Every Wednesday in The Feed I talk with Susie Calabrese, Home Expert and Local Realtor here in Connecticut about home tips and life hacks.
Today we’re talking about keeping cool without burning a hole in your wallet. As well as handling the big emotions that come with the end of the school year.
