Hi, I’m Sylvester! I am 10 years old, all love and snuggles and looking for a spot on a sofa near you! When I’m not busy trying to catch Tweety bird, I love to munch on tasty treats and take long naps in the sunshine. What do you say? Are we the perfect match for this Valentine’s Day? Visit Berkeley Humane Society’s pets of the week at 2700 Ninth St. in Berkeley or call 510-845-7735.

Petunia is a stocky, low-slung 55-pound girl whose favorite activities are being petted, going for walks, and hanging out at the coffee shop with her person as she watches the world go by. She’s laid-back, affectionate and looking for a family to spoil her as their only 5-year-old fur-child. Come meet this cute land hippo at Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter (FAAS) at 1590 Fortmann Way in Alameda, open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday or 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday through Sunday. See all our animals at alamedaanimalshelter.org. For more information, call 510-337-8565.

I’m Chansey, and I’m a couch potato. If you like the easy life, we should meet. Does your perfect day involve TV marathons and snacks within easy reach? Then we’re a match made in heaven! I’m a relaxed, laid-back dog who enjoys long naps, watching movies with her people and walking very short distances, like from the couch to my food bowl and back — partly to show off my four perfect white toes. Meet me, your new chum Chansey, at the East Bay SPCA, Oakland, 8323 Baldwin St., open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. Find this pet’s profile online at eastbayspca.org/adoptions/adopt-me.

Castor looks like a frail senior tabby, but this 18-year-old boy has an indomitable spirit, which is fitting as he was born on Sept. 11, 2001. His guardian has moved to a nursing home, and we hope to find Castor a new home, perhaps with a senior human. Castor looks at you like he sees into your soul. He comes when you call him and patiently waits to be fed — this boy is a treasure! To meet him, contact Renee at rmkemerson@aol.com. Pet Food Express in Lafayette from 1 to 4 p.m. For more information, visit www.communityconcernforcats.org.

Fumble (I.D.# A130299) is a quiet, brindled-and-white female American bulldog mix that’s good with cats and other dogs. She is very quiet, submissive and thinks she is 7 pounds instead of 70, so be prepared for a large lap dog if you take this girl home. Nigel (I.D.# A130540) is a sweet, neutered, 3-year-old male white-and-tabby cat with the most wonderful emerald eyes. He loves company and is fond of his food and treats. Nigel is ready to find his purrever with you!
