607NewsNow) — Our pets of the week start with Platypus (Top L) and Koala (Top R) from CNY Snap.

Platypus is almost 6 months old and demands attention, regardless of whether you’re busy or not, and then will curl up on your chest for a quick nap. She has lots of energy and is friendly, making friends with cats, dogs, and humans, although she prefers her favorite people to give her all of their attention. She has been spayed, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, and is microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Koala is also almost 6 months old and loves to cuddle as much as he loves to roughhouse and play with his friends. Not shy about showing affection, he likes to snuggle up with his people at bedtime. He has also been neutered, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, and is microchipped and up to date on vaccines.

Next, we have Perry (Bottom L) and Jerry (Bottom R) from the Cortland County SPCA. Perry is 5 months old and is goofy, sweet, and friendly. He loves to play and is a social butterfly, always looking to make new friends. Perry also loves to cuddle after a long day of running around.

Jerry is 3 months old and is playful and has plenty of energy, but is also very sweet. He loves to meet new people and is curious about the world around him. Like Perry, he likes to calm down after a full day of play by snuggling up with his people.
