Pet of the Week: Meet Danza, who explores like a tiny tiger

Posted on September 11, 2025 by dwooten

CHAMPAIGN, IL (Chambana Today) – Moore’s Rescue Ranch pulled Danza from Animal Control August 12, so she is one of the newest members of our pack. As you can see from the video on WIXY 100.3, she is curious, tiny, and loves being held.

She is looking for her person or family to hold her and give her places to play and hide. Thanks to our friends at Moore’s Rescue Ranch and Hoveln Heating & Cooling, Inc., we are able to help find homes for cats and dogs every week. Check-out Duane Shannon and the WIXY Facebook feed every Thursday morning for the latest video.
