This week’s Pet of the Week is Ricky Martin, a friendly and easygoing kitten who’s looking for his forever home.
Here’s what his friends at 4Paws Rescue Team have to say about him:
Ricky Martin is the most adorable, playful kitten! The only kitten in his litter, he has learned to get along with just about everyone! Ricky Martin is extremely playful and can entertain himself with any toy, often turning a sock, a string or any other object into something fun. (He also loves dog toys!) He loves playing with other cats and dogs.
Ricky Martin is being fostered with his mom, Selena, two resident cats and a dog, and he gets along with them all. He has been around other dogs and cats that have been brought into the home, as well as children. He would be a great addition to any household!
Kittens his age must be adopted in pairs unless there’s another young cat in the home already. He could easily be paired with his mama, Selena Wise. His estimated birth date is 5/16/21, which means he’ll be ready to go to his forever home anytime now. His mama tested negative for FIV and FeLV. He has had or will have age-appropriate vaccinations and microchipping before adoption; he will need to be neutered when old enough.
Are you ready to live la vida loca with Ricky Martin?

Months after Virginia started lifting its mask restrictions, the once-ubiquitous face masks that were a defining symbol of the COVID-19 pandemic have started becoming more scarce. But with the delta variant starting to cause a COVID-19 resurgence, some are saying masks in public should make a comeback, even for people who have been fully vaccinated.
The delta variant now accounts for 83% of new COVID-19 cases reported in the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated earlier this week. The delta variant is more contagious than other strands of COVID-19 and could potentially have more severe symptoms.
In official channels, mask requirements have continued to ease up. The Commonwealth is set to let a statewide mandate on indoor mask wearing in schools expire on Sunday (July 25), though the state guidance remains that teachers, students and staff should still wear their masks indoors.
While the virus now appears to be almost exclusively spreading among unvaccinated people, some fully vaccinated people have continued wearing masks for a variety of reasons, from a desire to fend off other illnesses or to protect young children and other people unable to get a vaccine to concern about being judged.
Have you stayed in the habit of wearing a face mask, or does it depend on the setting?
This past week, 36 properties were sold across Tysons Corner, McLean and Vienna, according to Homesnap.

Meet Major Z/Master Bruce, Tysons’ latest Pet of the Week. This sweet boy is very athletic but also loves cuddling up to you in bed each night (it’s hard to say no to those puppy dog eyes!).
Here’s what his friends at Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation had to say about him:
Major Z/Master Bruce is a handsome, confident puppy by day and vigilante by night. In the weeks he has been with his foster, he has grown from being a puppy with explosive energy to the guardian of the house. He is fast and extremely athletic and has learned to catch a frisbee and balls with ease.
He loves his walks and is an explorer at heart. With big energy comes a bigger appetite, and Bruce is treat motivated and has learned commands like fetch, NO!, stay, sit and stand in a matter of weeks.
He will sleep on his bed, but every night he will ask you if he can climb yours and cuddle beside you. You can’t say no to him, because he has really mastered the puppy eyes weapon. He is overjoyed to see his foster dad every day when he returns home from the office, shaking with happiness and a wagging tail!
He is house-trained and only relieves himself outside when we are on the morning and evening walks daily. He did have a tendency to chew on his bed and playfully shred it, but that has changed with the right amount of toys and training.
From Bruce’s foster: ‘I feel really bad letting him go right when I’m able to converse with him and he tries to communicate with me. He has really left his paw mark in my heart. I’m sure he will be an amazing guardian to whatever lucky family he is destined to. It’s been an amazing journey with Bruce, and I will miss him with all my heart.’
Are you and Bruce the perfect match?
