Pasadena Humane is waiving adoption fees for all senior dogs and cats, ages five and older, throughout November as part of National Adopt a Senior Pet Month. The promotion aims to help older animals find homes and to make it easier for families to welcome a seasoned companion.

Younger animals often draw the most attention from prospective adopters, but senior pets have a lot to offer. Many are past the most energetic stages of life, have settled personalities and daily routines, and are ready to enjoy the comforts of a home. Whether the goal is a leisurely walk around the neighborhood, a quiet afternoon on the couch, or simply a loyal companion, older pets can be a good fit for many households.

“Every pet deserves a place to call home, no matter their age,” said Chris Ramon, president and CEO of Pasadena Humane. “Senior pets have so much love and companionship to offer, and adopting one is a wonderful way to make a meaningful difference in an animal’s life while gaining a loyal friend in return.”

Every dog and cat adopted from Pasadena Humane is spayed or neutered, microchipped, and has received age-appropriate vaccinations. Adopters also receive a complimentary wellness exam with a participating veterinarian, along with a packet of pet care information.

Residents interested in adopting can view available animals at pasadenahumane.org or visit the shelter during adoption hours, which run daily from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The promotion runs throughout November.

Founded in 1903, Pasadena Humane describes itself as a community-supported animal resource center providing shelter, care and new beginnings for animals in the Greater Los Angeles area. Beyond adoptions and fostering, the organization runs programs intended to help people keep their pets, including free and low-cost spay and neuter services and vaccines, a pet food pantry, pet training programs, and an animal support call center. The group says it helped nearly 71,000 animals in 2025 through adoptions, wildlife rehabilitation, lost-and-found services, veterinary services, training classes, and surrender prevention assistance.

These Ritz Cracker Sandwiches Vanish Before the Party Starts

Ritz Party Sandwiches transform familiar buttery crackers into warm, savory appetizers that are exactly the right size for grabbing from a crowded table. Cheese and flavorful sandwich fillings sit between pairs of crackers, creating miniature bites with a crisp exterior and rich center. As they bake, the cheese melts, the filling warms, and the crackers become even more aromatic without losing the delicate texture that makes Ritz crackers so recognizable. Each small sandwich delivers salt, butter, cheese, and savory flavor in one or two bites, which explains why people rarely stop after taking only one. The recipe does not require elaborate pastry, specialty bread, or hours of preparation, yet the completed tray looks more thoughtful than simply opening a box of crackers. It is party food built around convenience without tasting like the cook took an obvious shortcut.

Grandma’s Potato Soup Never Needed Twenty Ingredients

Modern potato soup recipes often arrive loaded with cheese, bacon, cream cheese, toppings, and a shopping list long enough to make a simple supper feel expensive. Grandma’s five-ingredient version takes the opposite approach. Potatoes provide the body, a few basic ingredients build the broth, and gentle cooking turns everything into a warm, comforting bowl without unnecessary additions. The simplicity allows the potato flavor to remain clear while creating the kind of creamy texture people expect from old-fashioned soup. It is especially useful when the refrigerator looks bare, the pantry is uncooperative, and dinner still needs to happen. A short ingredient list also means fewer measurements, less preparation, and an affordable pot large enough to serve several people. This soup does not attempt to compete with restaurant menus. It offers something more dependable: familiar warmth made from ingredients ordinary kitchens are likely to have.
