Gilbert is our pet this week. He is a 2-year old domestic shorthaired black cat who has been at Berkshire Humane Society since right before Halloween! Gilbert should be the only pet in the home – he does not like other cats or dogs. This laid-back boy was found as a stray. Although life is better for him at the shelter than out on the streets, we hope he finds his forever home soon.

IS YOUR LIVING SPACE getting you down? In need of a breath of fresh air or a change of energy? Do you have a myriad of ideas but just don’t know where to start? I believe in the re-use, re-organization and revitalization of your existing resources. In the right surroundings, and with the right touch, anything old can be new again! Then again, sometimes it takes that little something else to pull it all together... Let me help you envision, re-vamp and get organized. It’s what I do! Alicia Wiltshire - (413)-2481061.
