Amy Venticinque, MM
Amy graduated from University of Maryland and received her Masters in Music from Rice University. She is a violinist with the San Antonio Symphony where she has worked for more than twelve years.
When not performing, she teaches private lessons to developing young musicians. Amy is very involved in improving the life of feral cats and has spent countless hours trapping, sterilizing, and educating the general public about their care. She is a reliable, hard-working, and go-to kind of person.
Amy has been a valuable asset to the SNIPSA team – manning the cat surgery area at our Big Fix clinics, trapping and transporting countless feline patients, recovering these same feral cats in her home until they could safely be returned, and participating in numerous weekend adoption events.

I’m Lucy Lu! Who are you?! 🤗 Well, I’m the sweetest, most playful girl around. I’ll run zoooomies around your heart if you’ll just let me. Originally adopted as a puppy back in 2021, I was sadly returned due to some unforeseen circumstances in my parents’ lives. But despite needing to find a new home, I’m the best dog ever! ❤️🩹 I love going on walks, playing fetch and showing off my best tricks for Milk Bones. At the end of the day, my favorite thing to do is cuddle up with my loved ones and watch movies. I am great with kids and other dogs, so I should make an easy adjustment to just about any family home. And not to mention, I have the best house manners! 🐾 My breed is a bit of a mystery, but SNIPSA thinks I’m some kind of Boston Terrier mix. If you want a canine companion that is social, friendly and a little on the silly side, please consider giving me a second chance. I’ll happily take on the role of your new best friend. ✨
Apply to meet me at www.SNIPSA.org/lucy-lu 📩

Precious, petite lil’ Poppet! 💕 Everyone loves a Chug (or a Chihuahua/Pug mix), and this girl is no exception. Chugs are known to be affectionate, loyal and confident companions. Our Poppet fits this bill with her easygoing, upbeat personality. In addition, her adorable underbite and stumpy legs are just too cute to pass up! ✨ Poppet thrives around her people, and she will let you know how much she loves you by giving you all of her best cuddles and tail wags. While Poppet is potty trained and crate trained, she loves to share the bed with you, curling right up in your arms or at your feet. As an adult, she has also mastered all of her manners, so you get to skip out on that stubborn puppy training phase! She won’t be getting any bigger either, making her the perfect size to tag along with you wherever you go! Submit an application to meet Poppet today if you’re looking for your next best pal! 🫶
