The Denton Record-Chronicle was lucky enough to grab a few minutes with the winners of the first annual Cats and Dogs (and other pets, too) Contest, despite their increasingly-busy schedule of interviews, press conferences, photo sessions and frenzied fans. Leo, our grand prize winner and 2011 cover model, was dogged in his determination to grant us a few minutes of his time. DRC: You know we have to ask the question…how did you get your name? Leo: “Well, my owners thought I looked like a lion, but I just don’t see it. I mean, king of the jungle. That fits. But the whole hair-thing around the face? Call me skeptical.” DRC: Can you tell us what makes Leo, Leo? Leo: “Where should I begin? I was born on the 4th of July…I love the parade they have for me, by the way.
I love people. Really love them. I think I’m a pretty laid back guy, but I am the boss dog. The top dog. And don’t get me started on squirrels, okay?” DRC: What do you like to do for fun? Leo: “Well, it’s more like my hobby, my pastime... maybe my obsession. Squirrels. It’s my mission in life. To eradicate them from the world. They’re just so darn chatty, and they have the nerve to bring their bushy little tails into my back yard. What’s up with that? Other than squirrels, it’s just the usual…wading in the pond and hanging with Blue.” DRC: Who’s Blue? Leo: “You media types are all alike. I’d rather not answer any questions about my personal life, and just concentrate on my career.” DRC: Can you tell us what your perfect evening would look like?

Leo: “A quiet dinner party at home with friends and my fuzzy, squeaky cat toy. Filet mignon on the menu, of course. I’d love to break milkbones with Rin Tin Tin…he really blazed the path for all of us who came after him. And, Jennifer Lopez. Woof, woof, if you know what I mean. My final guest would probably be the Dalai Lama. I mean, think of the dinner conversation! We could wrap up the evening with a showing of “Up”. I love and hate that movie at the same time, man. Squirrels again.” DRC: Do you do tricks? Leo: “I’m a little offended by the question. If you mean ‘am I multi-talented’, then yes. I am incredible at Hide and Seek. You can run, but you can’t hide from Leo!” DRC: Is there anything else we should know about you? Leo: “You know, every day is my favorite day. I’m really a happy guy and I love my life!”

The Denton Record-Chronicle continues its profiles of Cats and Dogs (and other pets, too) winners with the two runners up. Zoe was adopted from the Denton Animal Shelter at the end of March, and will celebrate her first birthday on August 31. A Lorie in her former life, Zoe was the quiet, reserved little lady in the shelter…just wanting to sit on a lap and be loved. Still waters run deep, they say. Once she came home, her true colors came out. “I’m still lovable and affectionate,”
Mr. Park was very disappointed he wasn’t the grand prize winner and refused our repeated requests for an interview, but he did consent to dictate answers for the special section to his personal assistantMelody Specht Kelly.
was my sign: McKenna Park. I turned to tell Mum my discovery, but she was gone. I was alone, but nameless no more. I slipped confidently through the night, knowing destiny must have great plans for a cat called Mr. McKenna Park.
1. I got my name when my Mum, Mehitabel, took my brothers and I on a night walk through the park where we’d been born. My brothers chased moths and talked over their plans to move in on Dr. Barbara Cox, who lived across the street. I, The Cat With No Name, continued to search for my true identity. My mum repeatedly ignored my pleadings about my real name and merely told me to look for a sign. So I did, and hidden behind overgrown shrubbery
2. Regarding my favorite hobbies or pastimes, I simply keep to a strict routine: morning milk on the DRC. I just love reading the blotter! Followed by meditation, bird and butterfly watching in the afternoon on the metal glider, more meditation, then dinner followed by watching that Diva Dog, Lil’L, chase balls. How ridiculous dogs are! Finally, the Colbert Report, followed by more meditation. 3. When asked to describe
she said. “But I’m a paws-on kind of gal, too. It’s all true. I chew on anything and everything. I chew on things my owners haven’t even found yet. It’s a real talent! I wrestle with my sister and I live for bugging the cats! I also dig. I just can’t help it.” Zoe credits her new family for her big contest win. “I love, love, love my big sister Mandy, but she gets a little rough for me sometimes. I’ve got to learn how to take it as well as I dish it out! I’d also like to thank my Boston Terrier cousins, Kima and
Luna, and my big lab-mix cousin, Jonsi, from Alabama. Have you ever driven to Huntsville, Alabama? It’s a long drive! And, I didn’t even get to go to the beach!” DRC: In closing, can you tell our readers anything else about you? Zoe: “I love cheese! And those rawhide chewy-things! I love any movies that have a door bell or a barking dog… but it confuses me sometimes! And, I’m not very good at any tricks yet- still a work in progress.”
myself, I say: I’m a hip cat, a funkadelic kind of cat. I love chillin’ to tracks. Nothing beats tapping a paw to The Stray Cats. I love Cosmic Catnip from Petsmart, but I must make it clear, I do not inhale. My favorite movies are: Alice in Wonderland (who’s the cooler cat- Johnny Depp or the Cheshire Cat?), the musical Cats (I purr all the tunes!), and of course, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (I could jump off the roof with Maggie any time!). My biggest pet peeve is having to live with the diva dog, Lil’L, who treats me like a chew toy, and those other two cats- the children of the nightMouse and Kate. However, I digress! I only want to be remembered for one thing: the aura of serenity that surrounds me wherever I am. FA
Over 5,000 abandoned cats & dogs enter the shelter annually! All deserve a 2nd chance! Help us save them:
