And Leo loves them.
“He’s very, very interested
in lunch,” she says.
Lunch is always chicken
— Leo’s allergic to beef. But
chicken, as human chicken
lovers know, is versatile. Leo
gets his dressed up with different vegetables and rice or
beans. He likes chicken stir
fry, too, with a dash of soy
sauce.

NATIONAL POSTCARD WEEK
Postcards became a
means of communication
for Mooresville citizens as
early as 1900, when pharmacist George C. Goodman
began selling images of local
landmarks and churches on
small cards.
In advance of National
Postcard Week (May 6-14),
the Mooresville-South Iredell Chamber of Commerce
and the South Iredell Senior
Center will sponsor a heritage program on Mooresville postcards on May 2. It's

who has been preparing her
pooch’s meals since adopting him five years ago from
the Suncoast Humane
Society in Englewood.
When Passmore heard

sniffed a bowl of Menu
Foods’ potentially deadly
“cuts and gravy” meals.
Providing home-cooked
meals for her pet really
doesn’t require that much
extra effort, Passmore says.
“I know that people may
balk at the idea, but there
are a million shortcuts. It’s a
lot easier than cooking for a
husband because they’re
[pets] not human; they’re
not going to critique,” she
