A Page On Pets

Tue., April 14, 1998

We at the Spokesman-Review are wild about our pets. They bring us untold joy and unconditional love. They boost our spirits and provide companionship. They make us laugh, and stick around when we cry. We treat them like family.

We’re betting that you might, too. For that reason, we’ve added a new Pets page to the In Life section. It starts today, and will run every other week on D-3.

On it, you’ll find a feature story about some aspect of the human-animal bond; a reader-interactive column called “Furry Talk” that will let you share stories about your pet; and a pet notes column called “Paws and Reflect,” which will highlight unusual pet products, events, books, and other items of interest to people who love animals.

If you have story ideas or pet notes items to share, send them to Pets Page, The Spokesman-Review, P.O. Box 2160, Spokane WA 99210; or contact us via e-mail, kathleeng@spokesman.com. Items for “Furry Talk” can also be sent to the above address, or call (509) 459-5470; or fax (509) 459-5098.
