The Mcsombers pets, Scout and ollie cat
This is Scout! He is 5 years old, always ridiculous, and believes every day is the BEST DAY EVER!!!! He also loves his mom.
Ollie Cat came to joined the McSombers family on Evalena’s 7th birthday: May 2, 2014. Sombers Lab alum Andy Schmidt’s parents found him at a Wal-Mart parking lot somewhere in the western half of the state and they gave him the home he needed. He’s a cool cat, but sort of sus…..
Chathuri’s International Pup, Buster
Buster is Chathuri's little angel boy! He was a birthday gift for Chathuri's mom, and has been getting all the attention ever since- He is a spoiled brat. He has a very strict routine during the day, which basically goes: Bfast time, nap time, bark and chase time with squirrels/birds/butterflies/kites or whatever crosses his path (or the sky), lunch time, nap time, walkies time (his personal favorite), dinner time and overnight security job. Even though he's super busy around the day, he still manages to maintain his status as the most handsomest and the sweetest weenie. Buster loves to eat chicken, and absolutely hates puppy treats-he would rather prefer a share of whatever you're munching on. Oh and also, he stands tall and proud, for his ~1 ft height, and during nap time, he sleeps like a burrito-sometimes wrapped in an old tshirt of mom.
Jenna’s Teddy Bear, Theodore (Ted) Bartholomew
Ted is a very distinguished gentleman (look at those crossed paws!). He is 3 years old and loves his hedgehog toy. His ideal day starts with morning cuddles, followed by taking over the pillows while Mom makes the bed, butt scratches, afternoon naps, and playing fetch at the dog park (which is really just a game of keep-away from Mom and Dad). His best friends are his parents and his half siblings, Maple and Henry. He absolutely does not like small dogs but learning to befriend them. He is very motivated by treats and walks outside!
Kalynn’s Girl Party, Paisley and Pistachio
It’s a girl paw-ty!
Paisley,10 years old, is a real lady. Kalynn rescued Paisley from her backyard in 2013, and they’ve been best friends ever since. She only drinks out of her water fountain and doesn’t like the vacuum or her paws being touched. She loves catnip, sleeping, and yelling at her little sister.
Pistachio, 1 year old, is an interesting little girl. Kalynn rescued her from the street and she walks with a silly little limp. She likes biting her mom, but it doesn't hurt because her canines are inexplicably dull. She loves her sparkly ball toys, her laser light, and snuggles.
Kaffies’s Sweet Girl, Selene
Selene is eleven years old and she's been my sweet girl for over half of my lifetime. She loves dangly toys, snuggling, chin scritches, treats, and taunting my roommate's dog. She is confident, persistent, smart, and a bit of a prima donna. But once you've gained her affection she is a loyal cat who just wants to lay on your lap and purr herself to sleep (with ample pets of course). She will still yell at you and get into things she knows she's not supposed to be in just to get your attention. She also has a glare/stank eye that could melt metal.
Somber’s Lab Pet Alumni
Alex’s Whole Heart, Poe
Sweetest little trash man. Alex Forderhase adopted Poebear right before the COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020. He is 5 years old! He was free from the shelter and is a sweety-bo-beedy. Poe has beautiful long hair, the sweetest eyes, and IBS (no one can be perfect amiright). Poe loves trash, birds, and screaming for attention.
Dylan’s Sweet Karen
Karen is just a scoop of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. She loves her dad Kyle and likes her other dad, Dylan. They think she is 5 years old? She was found in a mall parking lot, but acts like she’s a designer breed. She loves pineapples and hates Alex–even though she takes care of her sometimes when Dad’s out of town.
