Ketzel Is Princeton's Pet Of The Week

PRINCETON, NJ — Meet Ketzel! She has been chosen as Princeton Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"I would like to nominate our calico cat Ketzel for Princeton Pet of the Week. Ketzel is 16 years old, and she lives in Skillman with her three humans, Jodi, Rob, and Sarah Barrish. As a senior kitty, she spends most of her time lounging on the sofa or in sunny patches. She also enjoys sitting on counter tops, atop the kitchen table, and in front of computer screens. Her regal beauty and sweet disposition bring much joy to our house, especially during these challenging times.

By the way, that's a Conte's pepperoni pizza in the box. Ketzel knows good people food when she smells it (although she is not allowed to eat it). She also wholeheartedly endorses our family's ongoing effort to support local businesses like Conte's."
