I FINALLY HAVE A FOREVER HOME!!

Hey, Everybody. I am so excited. Today was my first day with my brand new family. My foster Mom is sad to see me go, but she is so happy that I found someone who loves me just as much if not more than she does. I now have a quiet home with just a mommy and a daddy.
It took a little over a year, but please don't lose faith if you need a home, too. Keep on praying. Have faith. Somebody loves you, they just don't know it yet.

I'm going to be on TV!!!!

Hey, Everybody.
I am so excited. Today when my current mommy came to pick me up from Petsmart she got some good news. The animal welfare group that is trying to adopt me out (All About Animals in Macon) is going to put me on their weekly news segment this coming Sunday! I will be on 13WMAZ at 8:40 in the morning. Then I will be back at Petsmart that Sunday hoping that my forever home will receive me that day. Please pray for me! I hope I can contain myself and behave like the good kitty I truly am.

Time for More Pictures

Today Foster Mom and Dad decided to take new pictures of me. They also got a video of me. I try to make it very difficult to get any pictures because I like to move really fast and don't do the same things twice. I like to keep things interesting.
I still haven't found a home yet, and I hope I do soon. I'm really coming out of my shell at the adoption days. Folks want to look at me, but don't take me home though.
Keep praying for me folks!

Today's My Birthday

Hello, all my friends.

Today is my birthday. I spent it at the big store waiting for a forever home at their adoption day. No luck today. When Mom came to pick me up she brought a handful of the best treats ever! That was nice.

I love being at my current house, but there is a plus side to going to the big store. The lady who makes my bed there has a big fluffy sheep-wool looking blanket that she sets aside just for me. I love to make a little tunnel in it and hide inside. My current mom has been trying to find me one of my own, but she didn't know how hard it would be in our little city. If anyone has any ideas on where to find one we would all appreciate it.

Anyway, the funny thing that happened today was when Mom and Dad went to pick me up from the big store they pulled me out of the blankie and there beside me was the little cloth and yarn mouse I had totally pulled apart. The nice lady at the store was very proud of me, and said I was the first cat ever to do that. She told me how much she liked me. Mom and Dad were proud as well, and shared a story about a time I had brought them a real mouse.

My current mom received a new tall litter box from her step-mom this weekend. I wouldn't go in when it had the lid on, but when she took off the lid I decided to make the lid my home. Right now when I'm not in there, I hang out in the window sill of the guest bedroom. It's not so bad, but I really want a home of my own.

No Home Yet

Hi, Everyone.
I still don't have a real home yet. Tomorrow (Monday) I go and get my shots. I am looking forward to it because foster mom says it will help me find a home. Please keep praying for me.

No Forever Home Yet

I spent the last two nights at the animal supply store with two other kitties waiting for my forever family. They didn't come. It was okay though because the nice lady from All About Animals Macon gave me a fluffy blankie that I crawled into and wrapped myself up in. It made me very comfortable. I only came out when my foster mom came to pick me up tonight. I recognized her voice. She looked happy and sad to see me. I don't know what to think.

The volunteers won't be able to take me next week because they won't be there. I am hoping that I find a home because the dog here at this house is very bouncy, and it bothers me.

A Whole New World

Hi, Everyone!

I would like to introduce myself. My name is Dixie and my mom thinks I am a boy, but the paperwork from the vet has one page that says male and one page that says female. I don't think my gender matters though because I won't be able to have babies anyway. I love to talk and listen. I love to rub up against things and be scratched around my head. I also love, love, LOVE to eat. Since I claimed my foster parents they have noticed that I have gained a bit of weight since they have been feeding me. I am not overweight though, I weigh about 9 or 10 pounds. Mom couldn't get me to sit still on the scale, so she weighed herself holding me and subtracted her own weight. I have also been tested for feline leukemia and the test came back negative.

One of the things my foster parents love about me is that when they come home I run from the bushes to greet them, meowing for attention and rolling around on the ground. The world is my catnip and I am so happy to be here.

I also wanted everyone to know how excited I am. After several months of living in a drainage ditch, I finally have a steady meal, clean water, and a roof over my head at night. My foster Mom and Dad bring me in every night and let me out again in the morning. Actually, I like being inside so much that when they come outside to feed me or get something from the car I do my best to follow close behind so that I can sneak inside for the air-conditioning .

There is one problem though....

Where I live now there is a dog. I don't like dogs, but since I am kept in a safe place, the dog and I look at each other, but that's it. They tried one time to introduce us, but I was not a happy camper. Hopefully I will find someone who doesn't have any dogs to take me home permanently so that I can run around and investigate to my heart's content.

Sometimes during the day Mom brings me in and lets me wander around the master bathroom and closet. I showed her how smart I am. I know that when I look in a mirror that it is not another cat, it's me! I also know how to open cabinets and climb inside to hide really well. It's a good thing they keep everything in plastic bins.

Tomorrow is a very important day for me. Mom found someone who operates an adoption day at a local chain pet supply store. Mom is going to take me down there for a sleep over, and I may find my future Mom or Dad while I am there. What do you think the chances are that I will find people who will love me in just three days when there are so many other kitties who need loving homes, too?

Please wish me luck. I know my foster Mom and Dad love me, but my dream is to go back to the way things used to be with a family of my own and a roof over my head 24 hours a day.
