A Pawsitive Angel was created especially for those "quirky"
kinds of pets such as Nikki our dog and Taboo our cat.  Who
we consider to be furry family members but not little people
in fur suits.

A Pawsitive Angel LLC was created by Lori & Vern Lacell as a result
of their life long love of animals.  Lori grew up on a small horse ranch
that included dogs, cats, a rabbit, a parakeet and even a goose
named Orville Honky!  Vern has also enjoyed life long relationships
with family pets, especially his beloved chocolate lab Rosie.

We adopted Nikki from the Oregon Humane Society when she was  
less than three years old.  We are her third owners.

She has  a sweet and playful nature and the goofiest smile -- you
can't help but fall in love with her!  Her enthusiasm and eagerness
to please are contagious and she is a constant source of fun and
entertainment.  So many times we find ourselves thinking "I
wonder what she's up to now?"  

However she was not well socialized around other dogs or people
-- which can make going for walks a real adventure!   Additionally
she had a serious injury  to her right hip which left her with a limp
and the need for on-going veterinary care.

With the aid of a Halti brand collar, basic training techniques and
lots of positive reinforcement she is continuing to improve both her
leash and people skills.   Thus her alias "The Wonder Beast" !

About A Pawsitive Angel
This pretty girl is our cat, Taboo.  As a kitten she was a
Christmas gift to Lori over 13 years ago when she lived
in a "no pets allowed" apartment -- hence her name!  
The two quickly became inseparable and there is no
doubt she is in charge of our household.

Taboo is a very independent cat with definite ideas
such as breakfast should be served at 3 a.m., dogs are
completely unnecessary and she should be able to read
the newspaper first.  Her most endearing traits are
meowing after Lori sneezes and her evening "tuck-in"
service when she cuddles up and purrs us to sleep.
