Jax And Archie Are New Providence's Pet Of The Week

NEW PROVIDENCE/BERKELEY HEIGHTS, NJ — Meet Jax and Archie! They have been chosen as New Providence-Berkeley Heights Patch's Pet Of The Week.

"My pets names are Jax, who is a 1.5 year old German Shepherd and Archie, who is a 7 month old black cat. They’re best buddies!

Jax is loyal, smart, and playful. He loves snow, digging in the swimming pool, long walks, and tennis balls.

Archie is my cuddle buddy with a wild side. He loves climbing on everything, any cat toy with a bell, mom's shopping bags, and Jax’s tail.

They both come greet us at the door when we come home. They bring so much joy and smiles to our house; we love them very much! Best of all, they are both rescues!!"

— Kelly McCann, New Providence
