Slurpy greetings, love, lots of play, and lounging abound

Dogs come in all shapes and sizes, even though science tells us they all hail from the mighty wolf. Cats, too, come from sturdy stock. But wherever they came from, they’ve burrowed deep into our hearts and our homes. This year’s Pets of Larchmont features dozens of the furry friends, plus a chicken and a rooster.

“This picture of Boo was taken minutes after he came into my life Oct. 29, 2025,” said Michael Soriano, of La Vista Court.

He really loves everyone, be it human, dog, or cat,” said Soriano.
