What About Me?

Hi Foco people! Our loved ones at the HSFC are trying their hardest to get the both of us adopted by Christmas, so this month’s feature should be called, “What About Us?” You see, we are now the longest residents at the shelter. It seems as if no one wants either one of us. So, I am here to tell you about our wonderfulness!

A New Twist on Holiday Giving

As the holiday season begins, we are inundated with a constant influx of marketing for the dream gift suggestions for your special someone. Marketing campaigns from huge companies pierce our collective consciousness with catchy slogans like “Every kiss begins with K”, “Diamonds are forever”, “Maybe she was born with it”, “There are some things money can’t buy, for everything else there’s MasterCard”, “Just Do It”, “Because you’re worth it”.
