Wall Street is preparing for what could become one of the biggest AI IPOs in history. But ordinary investors may have to wait until shares begin publicly trading to participate directly.

Adoptable Pet of the Week

Meet Mario & Luigi!
Mario — Animal ID: 841302
Luigi — Animal ID: 841174
Mario and Luigi, two friendly six-month-old kitten brothers available for adoption

Hello, everyone! We're Mario and Luigi, two adventurous six-month-old brothers looking for our forever homes! We were found in July after being separated from our mom, and we've been winning hearts ever since. We're super friendly, playful, and always ready for our next adventure!

Recently, we spent a whole week exploring the cat playroom, and boy, did we have fun! We loved chasing the motorized ball, climbing the cat stands, and finding new ways to entertain ourselves.

Of course, even the most adventurous kittens need their beauty sleep. When nighttime rolled around, we'd find a nice, quiet place to curl up and recharge so we could do it all again the next day!

We would love for you to come meet us and see just how much fun a couple of playful brothers can be! Stop by the Jefferson County Animal Resource Center and let us show you why we might be the perfect additions to your family!
